With respect to consolidated VIEs, the following assets may only be used to settle obligations of these consolidated VIEs and the following liabilities are only the obligations of these consolidated VIEs.

KKR invests its own capital alongside the capital it manages for fund investors and provides financing solutions and investment opportunities through its capital markets business.

On July 1, 2018, KKR & Co. L.P. converted from a Delaware limited partnership to a Delaware corporation named KKR & Co. Inc. (the "Conversion"). Because the Conversion became effective on July 1, 2018, the prior period amounts in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, reflect KKR as a limited partnership and not a corporation. In this report, references to KKR & Co. Inc. for periods prior to the Conversion mean KKR & Co. L.P., and references to KKR's Class A common stock, Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock for periods prior to the Conversion mean common units, Series A preferred units and Series B preferred units of KKR & Co. L.P., respectively, in each case, except where the context requires otherwise. As a result of the Conversion, the financial impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein consisted of (i) reclassifications from partnership equity accounts to equity accounts reflective of a corporation and (ii) a partial step-up in the tax basis of certain assets resulting in the recognition of a net income tax benefit.

KKR & Co. Inc. is the parent company of KKR Group Holdings Corp., which is (i) athe general partner of KKR Fund HoldingsGroup Partnership L.P. ("Fund Holdings") and KKR International Holdings L.P. ("International Holdings"Group Partnership") and (ii) the sole stockholder of KKR Management Holdings Corp. (the general partner of KKR Management Holdings L.P. ("Management Holdings")) and KKR Fund Holdings GP Limited (the other general partner of Fund Holdings and International Holdings). Fund Holdings, Management Holdings and International Holdings are collectively referred to as the "KKR Group Partnerships."
KKR & Co. Inc. both indirectly controls the KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership and indirectly holds Class A partner units in each KKR Group Partnership (collectively, "KKR("KKR Group Partnership Units") representing economic interests in KKR's business. The remaining KKR Group Partnership Units are held by KKR Holdings L.P. ("KKR Holdings"), which is not a subsidiary of KKR & Co. Inc. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, KKR & Co. Inc. held approximately 64.8%65.9% of the KKR Group Partnership Units and KKR Holdings held approximately 35.2%34.1% of the KKR Group Partnership Units. The percentage ownership in the KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership will continue to change as KKR Holdings exchange units in theits KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership Units for shares of Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. or when KKR & Co. Inc. otherwise issues or repurchases shares of Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. The KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership also havehas outstanding equitylimited partner interests that provide for thea carry pool and preferred units with economic terms that mirror the Series A and Series B preferred stock issued by KKR & Co. Inc.
Reorganization and Acquisition of KKR Capstone

On January 1, 2020, KKR completed an internal reorganization (the "Reorganization"), in which (i) KKR Management Holdings L.P. ("Management Holdings") and KKR International Holdings L.P. ("International Holdings") were combined with KKR Fund Holdings L.P. ("Fund Holdings"), which changed its name to KKR Group Partnership L.P. and became the sole intermediate holding company for KKR's business, (ii) the issuers of each series of KKR’s outstanding senior notes were contributed to KKR Group Partnership and the guarantees by International Holdings and Management Holdings under the senior notes were automatically and unconditionally released and discharged pursuant to the terms of the indentures governing such senior notes, with KKR Group Partnership remaining as a guarantor, and (iii) the ownership interests of certain operating subsidiaries of KKR Group Partnership were reorganized. References to "KKR Group Partnerships" for periods prior to the Reorganization mean Fund Holdings, Management Holdings and International Holdings, collectively, and references to "KKR Group Partnership" for periods following the Reorganization mean KKR Group Partnership L.P. References to a "KKR Group Partnership Unit" mean (i) one Class A partner interest in each of Fund Holdings, Management Holdings and International Holdings, collectively, for periods prior to the Reorganization and (ii) one Class A partner interest in KKR Group Partnership for periods following the Reorganization.

Contemporaneously with the Reorganization, KKR acquired KKR Capstone Americas LLC and its affiliates ("KKR Capstone") on January 1, 2020. KKR Capstone was consolidated prior to January 1, 2020 and consequently, this transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction. This transaction resulted in an increase to the KKR Group Partnership equity. Accordingly, both KKR's equity and noncontrolling interests held by KKR Holdings increased for their proportionate share of the KKR Capstone equity based on their ownership in KKR Group Partnership on January 1, 2020.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of KKR & Co. Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q. The condensed consolidated financial statements (referred to hereafter as the "financial statements"), including these notes, are unaudited and exclude some of the disclosures required in annual financial statements. Management believes it has made all necessary adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) such that the financial statements are presented fairly and that estimates made in preparing the financial statements are reasonable and prudent. The operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. The December 31, 2018 consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2019 was derived from audited financial statements included in KKR's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 15, 2019,18, 2020, and the financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included therein. Additionally, in the accompanying financial statements, the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition are referred to hereafter as the "consolidated statements of financial condition"; the condensed consolidated statements of operations are referred to hereafter as the "consolidated statements of operations";  the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) are referred to hereafter as the "consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss)"; the condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity are referred to hereafter as the "consolidated statements of changes in equity"; and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows are referred to hereafter as the "consolidated statements of cash flows."
KKR consolidates the financial results of the KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership and theirits consolidated entities, which include the accounts of KKR's investment management and capital markets companies, the general partners of certain unconsolidated investment funds, general partners of consolidated investment funds and their respective consolidated investment funds and certain other entities including CFEs. References in the accompanying financial statements to "principals" are to KKR's senior employees and non-employee operating consultants who hold interests in KKR's business through KKR Holdings.
All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
COVID-19 and Global Economic and Market Conditions
The outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19") continues to impact the United States and other countries throughout the world. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic and the United States declared a national emergency due to the outbreak. In connection with these declarations, various governments around the world have instituted measures to slow the transmissions of COVID-19, which substantially restrict individual and business activities. These measures include, for example, closures of non-essential businesses, limitations of crowd size, stay-at-home orders, quarantines, heightened border controls and limitations on travel. Governments in the United States and around the world have responded with fiscal and monetary stimuli that aim to provide emergency assistance to individuals and businesses negatively impacted by COVID-19. The outbreak of COVID-19 and the actions taken in response have had far reaching impact on the U.S. and global economies, contributing to significant volatility in the financial markets, resulting in a general decline in equity prices (including our common stock) and lower interest rates, and causing furloughs and layoffs in the labor market.
Given the ongoing nature of the outbreak, at this time we cannot reasonably predict the magnitude of the ultimate impact that COVID-19 will have on KKR’s business, financial performance and operating results. We believe COVID-19's adverse impact on KKR’s business, financial performance and operating results will be significantly driven by a number of factors that we are unable to predict or control, including, for example: the severity and duration of the pandemic; the pandemic's impact on the U.S. and global economies; the timing, scope and effectiveness of additional governmental responses to the pandemic; the timing and speed of economic recovery, including the availability of a treatment or vaccination for COVID-19; and the negative impact on our fund investors, vendors and other business partners that may indirectly adversely affect KKR.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, and investment income (loss) during the reporting periods. Such estimates include but are not limited to (i) the determination of the income tax provision and (ii) the valuation of investments and financial instruments. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the financial statements.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Principles of Consolidation
The types of entities KKR assesses for consolidation include (i) subsidiaries, including management companies, broker-dealers and general partners of investment funds that KKR manages, (ii) entities that have all the attributes of an investment company, like investment funds, (iii) CFEs and (iv) other entities, including entities that employ non-employee operating consultants.entities. Each of these entities is assessed for consolidation on a case by case basis depending on the specific facts and circumstances surrounding that entity.
Pursuant to its consolidation policy, KKR first considers whether an entity is considered a VIE and therefore whether to apply the consolidation guidance under the VIE model. Entities that do not qualify as VIEs are assessed for consolidation as voting interest entities ("VOEs") under the voting interest model.
KKR's funds are, for GAAP purposes, investment companies and therefore are not required to consolidate their investments in portfolio companies even if majority-owned and controlled. Rather, the consolidated funds and vehicles reflect their investments at fair value as described below in "Fair Value Measurements."
An entity in which KKR holds a variable interest is a VIE if any one of the following conditions exist: (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the legal entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (b) the holders of the equity investment at risk (as a group) lack either the direct or indirect ability through voting rights or similar rights to make decisions about a legal entity's activities that have a significant effect on the success of the legal

14

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

entity or the obligation to absorb the expected losses or right to receive the expected residual returns, or (c) the voting rights of some investors are disproportionate to their obligation to absorb the expected losses of the legal entity, their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the legal entity, or both and substantially all of the legal entity's activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights. Limited partnerships and other similar entities where unaffiliated limited partners have not been granted (i) substantive participatory rights or (ii) substantive rights to either dissolve the partnership or remove the general partner ("kick-out rights") are VIEs under condition (b) above. KKR's investment funds that are not CFEs (i) are generally limited partnerships, (ii) generally provide KKR with operational discretion and control, and (iii) generally have fund investors with no substantive rights to impact ongoing governance and operating activities of the fund, including the ability to remove the general partner, and, as such, the limited partners do not hold kick-out rights. Accordingly, most of KKR's investment funds are categorized as VIEs.
KKR consolidates all VIEs in which it is the primary beneficiary. A reporting entity is determined to be the primary beneficiary if it holds a controlling financial interest in a VIE. A controlling financial interest is defined as (a) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The consolidation guidance requires an analysis to determine (i) whether an entity in which KKR holds a variable interest is a VIE and (ii) whether KKR's involvement, through holding interests directly or indirectly in the entity or contractually through other variable interests (for example, management and performance related fees), would give it a controlling financial interest. Performance of that analysis requires the exercise of judgment. Fees earned by KKR that are customary and commensurate with the level of effort required to provide those services, and where KKR does not hold other economic interests in the entity that would absorb more than an insignificant amount of the expected losses or returns of the entity, would not be considered variable interests. KKR factors in all economic interests including interests held through related parties, to determine if it holds a variable interest. KKR determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE at the time it becomes involved with a VIE and reconsiders that conclusion when facts and circumstances change.
For entities that are determined not to be VIEs, these entities are generally considered VOEs and are evaluated under the voting interest model. KKR consolidates VOEs it controls through a majority voting interest or through other means.
The consolidation assessment, including the determination as to whether an entity qualifies as a VIE or VOE depends on the facts and circumstances surrounding each entity and therefore certain of KKR's investment funds may qualify as VIEs whereas others may qualify as VOEs.
With respect to CLOs (which are generally VIEs), in its role as collateral manager, KKR generally has the power to direct the activities of the CLO that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity. In some, but not all cases, KKR, through its residual interest in the CLO may have variable interests that represent an obligation to absorb losses of, or a right to receive benefits from, the CLO that could potentially be significant to the CLO. In cases where KKR has both the power to direct the activities of the CLO that most significantly impact the CLO's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of the CLO or the right to receive benefits from the CLO that could potentially be significant to the CLO, KKR is deemed to be the primary beneficiary and consolidates the CLO.

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

With respect to CMBS vehicles (which are generally VIEs), KKR holds unrated and non-investment grade rated securities issued by the CMBS, which are the most subordinate tranche of the CMBS vehicle. The economic performance of the CMBS is most significantly impacted by the performance of the underlying assets. Thus, the activities that most significantly impact the CMBS economic performance are the activities that most significantly impact the performance of the underlying assets. The special servicer has the ability to manage the CMBS assets that are delinquent or in default to improve the economic performance of the CMBS. KKR generally has the right to unilaterally appoint and remove the special servicer for the CMBS and as such is considered the controlling class of the CMBS vehicle. These rights give KKR the ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the CMBS. Additionally, as the holder of the most subordinate tranche, KKR is in a first loss position and has the right to receive benefits, including the actual residual returns of the CMBS, if any. In these cases, KKR is deemed to be the primary beneficiary and consolidates the CMBS vehicle.
Investments
Investments consist primarily of private equity, real assets, credit, investments of consolidated CFEs, real assets, equity method carried interest and other investments. Investments denominated in currencies other than the entity's functional currency are valued based on the spot rate of the respective currency at the end of the reporting period with changes related to exchange rate movements reflected as a component of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the consolidated statements of operations. Security and loan transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Further disclosure on investments is presented in Note 4 "Investments."

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

The following describes the types of securities held within each investment class.
Private Equity - Consists primarily of equity investments in operating businesses, including growth equity investments.
Credit - Consists primarily of investments in below investment grade corporate debt securities (primarily high yield bonds and syndicated bank loans), originated, distressed and opportunistic debt,credit, real estate mortgage loans, and interests in unconsolidated CLOs.
Investments of Consolidated CFEs - Consists primarily of (i) investments in below investment grade corporate debt securities (primarily high yield bonds and syndicated bank loans) held directly by the consolidated CLOs and (ii) investments in originated, fixed-rate real estate mortgage loans held directly by the consolidated CMBS vehicles.
Real Assets - Consists primarily of investments in (i) energy related assets, principally oil and natural gas producing properties, (ii) infrastructure assets, and (iii) real estate, principally residential and commercial real estate assets and businesses.
Equity Method - Other - Consists primarily of (i) certain direct interests in operating companies in which KKR is deemed to exert significant influence under GAAP and (ii) certain interests in partnerships and joint ventures that hold private equity and real estateassets investments.
Equity Method - Capital Allocation-Based Income - Consists primarily of (i) the capital interest KKR holds as the general partner in certain investment funds, which are not consolidated and (ii) the carried interest component of the general partner interest, which are accounted for as a single unit of account.
Other - Consists primarily of investments in common stock, preferred stock, warrants and options of companies that are not private equity, real assets, credit or investments of consolidated CFEs.
Investments held by Consolidated Investment Funds
The consolidated investment funds are, for GAAP purposes, investment companies and reflect their investments and other financial instruments, including portfolio companies that are majority-owned and controlled by KKR's investment funds, at fair value. KKR has retained this specialized accounting for the consolidated investment funds in consolidation. Accordingly, the unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of the investments and other financial instruments held by the consolidated investment funds are reflected as a component of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the consolidated statements of operations.
Certain energy investments are made through consolidated investment funds, including investments in working and royalty interests in oil and natural gas producing properties as well as investments in operating companies that operate in the energy industry. Since these investments are held through consolidated investment funds, such investments are reflected at fair value as of the end of the reporting period. 

15

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Investments in operating companies that are held through KKR's consolidated investment funds are generally classified within private equity investments and investments in working and royalty interests in oil and natural gas producing properties are generally classified as real asset investments.
Energy Investments held by KKR
Certain energy investments are made by KKR indirectly holds certain working and royalty interests in oil and natural gas producing properties andthat are not held through investment funds. Oil and natural gas producing activities are accounted for under the successful efforts method of accounting and such working interests are consolidated based on the proportion of the working interests held by KKR. Accordingly, KKR reflects its proportionate share of the underlying consolidated statements of financial condition and consolidated statements of operations of the consolidated workingthese interests on a gross basis and changes in the value of these working interests are not reflected as unrealized gains and losses in the consolidated statements of operations. 
Under the successful efforts method, exploration costs, other than the costs of drilling exploratory wells, are charged to expense as incurred. Costs that are associated with the drilling of successful exploration wells are capitalized if proved reserves are found. Lease acquisition costs are capitalized when incurred. Costs associated with the drilling of exploratory wells that do not find proved reserves, geological and geophysical costs and costs of certain nonproducing leasehold costs are charged to expense as incurred.

16

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Expenditures for repairs and maintenance, including workovers, are charged to expense as incurred.
The capitalized costs of producing oil and natural gas properties are depleted on a field-by-field basis using the units-of production method based on the ratio of current production to estimated total net proved oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid reserves. Proved developed reserves are used in computing depletion rates for drilling and development costs and total proved reserves are used for depletion rates of leasehold costs.
Estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs for oil and natural gas properties, net of salvage value, are capitalized at their estimated net present value and amortized on a unit-of-production basis over the remaining life of the related proved developed reserves.
Whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of oil and natural gas properties may not be recoverable, KKR evaluates oil and natural gas properties and related equipment and facilities for impairment on a field-by-field basis. The determination of recoverability is made based upon estimated undiscounted future net cash flows. The amount of impairment loss, if any, is determined by comparing the fair value, as determined by a discounted cash flow analysis, with the carrying value of the related asset. Any impairment in value is recognized when incurred and is recorded in General, Administrative, and Other expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Fair Value Option
For certain investments and other financial instruments, KKR has elected the fair value option. Such election is irrevocable and is applied on a financial instrument by financial instrument basis at initial recognition. KKR has elected the fair value option for certain private equity, real assets, credit, investments of consolidated CFEs, equity method - other and other financial instruments not held through a consolidated investment fund. Accounting for these investments at fair value is consistent with how KKR accounts for its investments held through consolidated investment funds. Changes in the fair value of such instruments are recognized in Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the consolidated statements of operations. Interest income on interest bearing credit securities on which the fair value option has been elected is based on stated coupon rates adjusted for the accretion of purchase discounts and the amortization of purchase premiums. This interest income is recorded within Interest Income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Equity Method
For certain investments in entities over which KKR exercises significant influence but which do not meet the requirements for consolidation and for which KKR has not elected the fair value option, KKR uses the equity method of accounting. The carrying value of equity method investments, for which KKR has not elected the fair value option, is determined based on the amounts invested by KKR, adjusted for the equity in earnings or losses of the investee allocated based on KKR's respective ownership percentage, less distributions.
For equity method investments for which KKR has not elected the fair value option, KKR records its proportionate share of the investee's earnings or losses based on the most recently available financial information of the investee, which in certain

16

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

cases may lag the date of KKR's financial statements by no more than three calendar months. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, equity method investees for which KKR reports financial results on a lag include Marshall Wace LLP ("Marshall Wace").
KKR evaluates its equity method investments for which KKR has not elected the fair value option for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such investments may not be recoverable.
The carrying value of investments classified as Equity Method - Capital Allocation-Based Income approximates fair value, because the underlying investments of the unconsolidated investment funds are reported at fair value.
Financial Instruments held by Consolidated CFEs
KKR measures both the financial assets and financial liabilities of the consolidated CFEs in its financial statements using the more observable of the fair value of the financial assets and the fair value of the financial liabilities which results in KKR's consolidated net income (loss) reflecting KKR's own economic interests in the consolidated CFEs including (i) changes in the fair value of the beneficial interests retained by KKR and (ii) beneficial interests that represent compensation for services rendered.
For the consolidated CLOs, KKR has determined that the fair value of the financial assets of the consolidated CLOs is more observable than the fair value of the financial liabilities of the consolidated CLOs. As a result, the financial assets of the consolidated CLOs are being measured at fair value and the financial liabilities are being measured in consolidation as: (1) the

17

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

sum of the fair value of the financial assets and the carrying value of any nonfinancial assets that are incidental to the operations of the CLOs less (2) the sum of the fair value of any beneficial interests retained by KKR (other than those that represent compensation for services) and KKR's carrying value of any beneficial interests that represent compensation for services. The resulting amount is allocated to the individual financial liabilities (other than the beneficial interests retained by KKR).
For the consolidated CMBS vehicles, KKR has determined that the fair value of the financial liabilities of the consolidated CMBS vehicles is more observable than the fair value of the financial assets of the consolidated CMBS vehicles. As a result, the financial liabilities of the consolidated CMBS vehicles are being measured at fair value and the financial assets are being measured in consolidation as: (1) the sum of the fair value of the financial liabilities (other than the beneficial interests retained by KKR), the fair value of the beneficial interests retained by KKR and the carrying value of any nonfinancial liabilities that are incidental to the operations of the CMBS vehicles less (2) the carrying value of any nonfinancial assets that are incidental to the operations of the CMBS vehicles. The resulting amount is allocated to the individual financial assets.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. Except for certain of KKR's equity method investments (see "Equity Method" above) and debt obligations (as described in Note 10 "Debt Obligations"), KKR's investments and other financial instruments are recorded at fair value or at amounts whose carrying values approximate fair value. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation techniques are applied. These valuation techniques involve varying levels of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on a variety of factors.
GAAP establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring financial instruments at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of financial instrument, the characteristics specific to the financial instrument and the state of the marketplace, including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Financial instruments with readily available quoted prices in active markets generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
Investments and financial instruments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed based on the observability of inputs used in the determination of fair values, as follows:
Level I - Pricing inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments included in this category are publicly-listed equities and securities sold short.
Level II - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. The

17

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

types of financial instruments included in this category are credit investments, investments and debt obligations of consolidated CLO entities, convertible debt securities indexed to publicly-listed securities, less liquid and restricted equity securities and certain over-the-counter derivatives such as foreign currency option and forward contracts.
Level III - Pricing inputs are unobservable for the financial instruments and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial instrument. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. The types of financial instruments generally included in this category are private portfolio companies, real assets investments, credit investments, equity method investments for which the fair value option was elected and investments and debt obligations of consolidated CMBS entities.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. KKR's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset.
A significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability is an indication that transactions or quoted prices may not be representative of fair value because in such market conditions there may be increased instances of

18

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

transactions that are not orderly. In those circumstances, further analysis of transactions or quoted prices is needed, and a significant adjustment to the transactions or quoted prices may be necessary to estimate fair value.
The availability of observable inputs can vary depending on the financial asset or liability and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of instrument, whether the instrument has recently been issued, whether the instrument is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market, and current market conditions. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by KKR in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level III. The variability and availability of the observable inputs affected by the factors described above may cause transfers between Levels I, II, and III, which KKR recognizes at the beginning of the reporting period. 
Investments and other financial instruments that have readily observable market prices (such as those traded on a securities exchange) are stated at the last quoted sales price as of the reporting date. KKR does not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where KKR holds a large position and a sale could reasonably affect the quoted price.
Management's determination of fair value is based upon the methodologies and processes described below and may incorporate assumptions that are management's best estimates after consideration of a variety of internal and external factors.
Level II Valuation Methodologies
Credit Investments: These financial instruments generally have bid and ask prices that can be observed in the marketplace. Bid prices reflect the highest price that KKR and others are willing to pay for an instrument. Ask prices represent the lowest price that KKR and others are willing to accept for an instrument. For financial assets and liabilitiesinstruments whose inputs are based on bid-ask prices obtained from third party pricing services, fair value may not always be a predetermined point in the bid-ask range. KKR's policy is generally to allow for mid-market pricing and adjusting to the point within the bid-ask range that meets KKR's best estimate of fair value.
Investments and Debt Obligations of Consolidated CLO Vehicles: Investments of consolidated CLO vehicles are reported within Investments of Consolidated CFEs and are valued using the same valuation methodology as described above for credit investments. Under ASU 2014-13, KKR measures CLO debt obligations on the basis of the fair value of the financial assets of the CLO.
Securities Indexed to Publicly-Listed Securities: TheThese securities are typically valued using standard convertible security pricing models. The key inputs into these models that require some amount of judgment are the credit spreads utilized and the volatility assumed. To the extent the company being valued has other outstanding debt securities that are publicly-traded, the implied credit spread on the company's other outstanding debt securities would be utilized in the valuation. To the extent the company being valued does not have other outstanding debt securities that are publicly-traded, the credit spread will be estimated based on the implied credit spreads observed in comparable publicly-traded debt securities. In certain cases, an additional spread will be added to reflect an illiquidity discount due to the fact that the security being valued is not publicly-traded. The volatility assumption is based upon the historically observed volatility of the underlying equity security into which

the convertible debt security is convertible and/or the volatility implied by the prices of options on the underlying equity security.
Restricted Equity Securities: The valuation of certain equity securities is based on an observable price for an identical security adjusted for the effect of a restriction.restriction or leverage that collateralized the equity securities.
Derivatives: The valuation incorporates observable inputs comprising yield curves, foreign currency rates and credit spreads.
Level III Valuation Methodologies
Investments and financial instruments categorized as Level III consist primarily of the following:
Private Equity Investments: KKR generally employs two2 valuation methodologies when determining the fair value of a private equity investment. The first methodology is typically a market comparables analysis that considers key financial inputs and recent public and private transactions and other available measures. The second methodology utilized is typically a discounted cash flow analysis, which incorporates significant assumptions and judgments. Estimates of key inputs used in this methodology include the weighted average cost of capital for the investment and assumed inputs used to calculate terminal values, such as exit EBITDA multiples. In certain cases the results of the discounted cash flow approach can be significantly

19

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

impacted by these estimates. Other inputs are also used in both methodologies. In addition, when a definitive agreement has been executed to sell an investment, KKR generally considers a significant determinant of fair value to be the consideration to be received by KKR pursuant to the executed definitive agreement.
Upon completion of the valuations conducted using these methodologies, a weighting is ascribed to each method, and an illiquidity discount is typically applied where appropriate. The ultimate fair value recorded for a particular investment will generally be within a range suggested by the two2 methodologies, except that the value may be higher or lower than such range in the case of investments being sold pursuant to an executed definitive agreement.
When determining the weighting ascribed to each valuation methodology, KKR considers, among other factors, the availability of direct market comparables, the applicability of a discounted cash flow analysis, the expected hold period and manner of realization for the investment, and in the case of investments being sold pursuant to an executed definitive agreement, an estimated probability of such sale being completed. These factors can result in different weightings among investments in the portfolio and in certain instances may result in up to a 100% weighting to a single methodology.
When an illiquidity discount is to be applied, KKR seeks to take a uniform approach across its portfolio and generally applies a minimum 5% discount to all private equity investments. KKR then evaluates such private equity investments to determine if factors exist that could make it more challenging to monetize the investment and, therefore, justify applying a higher illiquidity discount. These factors generally include (i) whether KKR is unable to freely sell the portfolio company or conduct an initial public offering of the portfolio company due to the consent rights of a third party or similar factors, (ii) whether the portfolio company is undergoing significant restructuring activity or similar factors, and (iii) characteristics about the portfolio company regarding its size and/or whether the portfolio company is experiencing, or expected to experience, a significant decline in earnings. These factors generally make it less likely that a portfolio company would be sold or publicly offered in the near term at a price indicated by using just a market multiples and/or discounted cash flow analysis, and these factors tend to reduce the number of opportunities to sell an investment and/or increase the time horizon over which an investment may be monetized. Depending on the applicability of these factors, KKR determines the amount of any incremental illiquidity discount to be applied above the 5% minimum, and during the time KKR holds the investment, the illiquidity discount may be increased or decreased, from time to time, based on changes to these factors. The amount of illiquidity discount applied at any time requires considerable judgment about what a market participant would consider and is based on the facts and circumstances of each individual investment. Accordingly, the illiquidity discount ultimately considered by a market participant upon the realization of any investment may be higher or lower than that estimated by KKR in its valuations.
In the case of growth equity investments, enterprise values may be determined using the market comparables analysis and discounted cash flow analysis described above. A scenario analysis may also be conducted to subject the estimated enterprise values to a downside, base and upside case, which involves significant assumptions and judgments. A milestone analysis may also be conducted to assess the current level of progress towards value drivers that we have determined to be important, which involves significant assumptions and judgments. The enterprise value in each case may then be allocated across the investment's capital structure to reflect the terms of the security and subjected to probability weightings. In certain cases, the values of growth equity investments may be based on recent or expected financings.

Real Asset Investments: Real asset investments in infrastructure, energy and real estate are valued using one or morea combination of the discounted cash flow analysis, market comparables analysis and direct income capitalization, which in each case incorporates significant assumptions and judgments.
Infrastructure investments are generally valued using the discounted cash flow analysis. Key inputs used in this methodology can include the weighted average cost of capital and assumed inputs used to calculate terminal values, such as exit EBITDA multiples.
Energy investments are generally valued using a discounted cash flow approach, and where applicable, a market approach using comparable companies and transactions. Key inputs used in our valuations include (i) the weighted average cost of capital, (ii) future commodity prices, as quoted on indices, and long-term commodity price forecasts, and (iii) the asset’s future operating performance.
Real estate investments are generally valued using a combination of direct income capitalization and discounted cash flow analysis. Certain real estate investments are valued by KKR based on ranges of valuations determined by an independent valuation firm. Key inputs used in such methodologies that require estimates include an unlevered discount rate and current capitalization rate. The valuations of real assets investments also use other inputs.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Credit Investments: Credit investments are valued using values obtained from dealers or market makers, and where these values are not available, credit investments are generally valued by KKR based on ranges of valuations determined by an independent valuation firm. Valuation models are based on discounted cash flow analyses, for which the key inputs are determined based on market comparables, which incorporate similar instruments from similar issuers.
Real Estate Mortgage Loans: Real estate mortgage loans are illiquid, structured investments that are specific to the property and its operating performance. KKR engages an independent valuation firm to estimate the fair value of each loan. KKR reviews the quarterly loan valuation estimates provided by the independent valuation firm. These loans are generally valued using a discounted cash flow model using discount rates derived from observable market data applied to the capital structure of the respective sponsor and estimated property value. In the event that KKR's estimate of fair value differs from the fair value estimate provided by the independent valuation firm, KKR ultimately relies solely upon the valuation prepared by the investment personnel of KKR.
Other Investments: With respect to other investments including equity method investments for which the fair value election has been made, KKR generally employs the same valuation methodologies as described above for private equity and real assets investments when valuing these other investments.
Investments and Debt Obligations of Consolidated CMBS Vehicles: Under ASU 2014-13, KKR measures CMBS investments, which are reported within Investments of Consolidated CFEs on the basis of the fair value of the financial liabilities of the CMBS. Debt obligations of consolidated CMBS vehicles are valued based on discounted cash flow analyses. The key input is the expected yield of each CMBS security using both observable and unobservable factors, which may include recently offered or completed trades and published yields of similar securities, security-specific characteristics (e.g. securities ratings issued by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, credit support by other subordinate securities issued by the CMBS and coupon type) and other characteristics.
Key unobservable inputs that have a significant impact on KKR's Level III investment valuations as described above are included in Note 5 "Fair Value Measurements." KKR utilizes several unobservable pricing inputs and assumptions in determining the fair value of its Level III investments. These unobservable pricing inputs and assumptions may differ by investment and in the application of KKR's valuation methodologies. KKR's reported fair value estimates could vary materially if KKR had chosen to incorporate different unobservable pricing inputs and other assumptions or, for applicable investments, if KKR only used either the discounted cash flow methodology or the market comparables methodology instead of assigning a weighting to both methodologies.
There is inherent uncertainty involved in the valuation of Level III investments and there is no assurance that, upon liquidation, KKR will realize the values reflected in our valuations. Our valuations may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material. Furthermore, the recent market volatility caused by COVID-19 and the uncertainty surrounding its full impact have amplified the possibility that our future valuations may materially change from those reflected as of March 31, 2020.

Fees and Other
Fees and Other, as detailed above, are accounted for as contracts with customers. Under the guidance for contractsASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with customers,Customers ("ASC 606"), KKR is required to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (c) determine the transaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (e) recognize revenue when (or as) KKR satisfies its performance obligation. In determining the transaction price, KKR has included variable consideration only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized would not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved.

Management Fees
KKR provides investment management services to investment funds, CLOs, and other vehicles in exchange for a management fee. Management fees are determined quarterly based on an annual rate and are generally based upon a percentage of the capital committed or capital invested during the investment period. Thereafter, management fees are generally based on a percentage of remaining invested capital, net asset value, gross assets or as otherwise defined in the respective contractual agreements. Since some of the factors that cause the fees to fluctuate are outside of KKR's control, management fees are considered to be constrained and are therefore not included in the transaction price. Additionally, after the contract is established there are no significant judgments made when determining the transaction price.

22

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Management fees earned from KKR's consolidated investment funds, CLOs, and other vehicles are eliminated in consolidation. However, because these amounts are funded by, and earned from, noncontrolling interests, KKR's allocated share of the net income from the consolidated investment funds, CLOs, and other vehicles is increased by the amount of fees that are eliminated. Accordingly, the elimination of these fees does not impact the net income (loss) attributable to KKR or KKR stockholders' equity.

22

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Fee Credits
Under the terms of the management agreements with certain of its investment funds, KKR is required to share with such funds an agreed upon percentage of certain fees, including monitoring and transaction fees earned from portfolio companies ("Fee Credits"). Investment funds earn Fee Credits only with respect to monitoring and transaction fees that are allocable to the 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 costs incurred in connection with pursuing potential investments that do not result in completed transactions ("broken-deal expenses") and generally amount to 80% for older funds, or 100% for newer funds, of allocable monitoring and transaction fees after broken-deal expenses are recovered, although the actual percentage may vary from fund to fund. Fee Credits are recognized and owed to investment funds concurrently with the recognition of monitoring fees, transaction fees and broken-deal expenses. Since Fee Credits are payable to investment funds, amounts owed are generally applied as a reduction of the management fee that is otherwise billed to the investment fund. Fee credits are recorded as a reduction of revenues in the consolidated statement of operations. Fee creditsCredits owed to investment funds are recorded in Due to Affiliates on the consolidated statements of financial condition. See Note 13 "Related Party Transactions."
Transaction Fees
KKR (i) arranges debt and equity financing, places and underwrites securities offerings, and provides other types of capital markets services for companies seeking financing in its Capital Markets business line and (ii) provides advisory services in connection with successful Private Markets and Public Markets business line portfolio company investment transactions, in each case, in exchange for a transaction fee. Transaction fees are separately negotiated for each transaction and are generally based on (i) in ourfor Capital Markets business line transactions, a percentage of the overall transaction size and (ii) for Private Markets and Public Markets business line transactions, a percentage of either total enterprise value of an investment or a percentage of the aggregate price paid for an investment. After the contract is established, there are no significant judgments made when determining the transaction price.
Monitoring Fees
KKR provides services in connection with monitoring portfolio companies in exchange for a fee. Recurring monitoring fees are separately negotiated for each portfolio company. In addition, certain monitoring fee arrangements may provide for a termination payment following an initial public offering or change of control as defined in the contractual terms of the related agreement. These termination payments are recognized in the period when the related transaction closes. After the contract is established, there are no significant judgments made when determining the transaction price.
Incentive Fees
KKR provides investment management services to certain investment funds, CLOs and other vehicles in exchange for a management fee as discussed above and, in some cases an incentive fee when KKR is not entitled to a carried interest. Incentive fee rates generally range from 5% to 20% of investment gains. Incentive fees are considered a form of variable consideration as these fees are subject to reversal, and therefore the recognition of such fees is deferred until the end of each fund's measurement period (which is generally one year) when the performance-based incentive fees become fixed and determinable. Incentive fees are generally paid within 90 days of the end of the investment vehicles' measurement period. After the contract is established, there are no significant judgments made when determining the transaction price.
Incentive fees earned from KKR's consolidated investment funds, CLOs, and other vehicles are eliminated in consolidation. However, because these amounts are funded by, and earned from, noncontrolling interests, KKR's allocated share of the net income from the consolidated investment funds, CLOs, and other vehicles is increased by the amount of fees that are eliminated. Accordingly, the elimination of these fees does not impact the net income (loss) attributable to KKR or KKR stockholders' equity.

Expense Reimbursements
Providing investment management services to investment funds and monitoring KKR’s portfolio companies require KKR to arrange for services on behalf of them. In those situations where KKR is acting as an agent on behalf of its investment funds or portfolio companies, it presents the cost of services on a net basis as a reduction of Revenues. In all other situations, KKR is primarily responsible for fulfilling the services and is therefore acting as a principal for those arrangements for accounting purposes. As a result, the expense and related reimbursement associated with those services is presented on a gross basis. Costs incurred are classified aswithin Expenses and reimbursements of such costs are classified as Expense Reimbursements within Revenues on the consolidated statements of operations. After the contract is established, there are no significant judgments made when determining the transaction price.

Oil and Gas Revenue
KKR directly holds certain working and royalty interests in oil and natural gas producing properties that are not held through investment funds. Oil and gas revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied, which occurs at the point in time when control of the product transfers to the customer. Performance obligations are typically satisfied through the monthly delivery of production. Revenue is recognized based on KKR's proportionate share of production from non-operated properties as marketed by the operator. After the contract is established, there are no significant judgments made when determining the transaction price.
Consulting Fees
Certain consolidated entities that employ non-employee operating consultants provideKKR provides consulting and other services to portfolio companies and other companies in exchange for a consulting fee. Consulting fees are separately negotiated with each portfolio company for which services are provided and are not shared with KKR.provided. After the contract is established, there are no significant judgments made when determining the transaction price.
Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss)
Capital allocation-based income (loss) is earned from those arrangements where KKR has a general partner capital interest and is entitled to a disproportionate allocation of investment income (referred to hereafter as "carried interest"). KKR accounts for its general partner interests in capital allocation-based arrangements as financial instruments under ASC 323, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures ("ASC 323") since the general partner has significant governance rights in the investment funds in which it invests, which demonstrates significant influence. In accordance with ASC 323, KKR records equity method income based on the proportionate share of the income of the investment fund, including carried interest, assuming the investment fund was liquidated as of each reporting date pursuant to each investment fund's governing agreements. Accordingly, these general partner interests are accounted for outside of the scope of ASC 606. Other arrangements surrounding contractual incentive fees through an advisory contract are separate and distinct and accounted for in accordance with ASC 606. In these incentive fee arrangements, accounted for in accordance with ASC 606, KKR’s economics in the entity do not involve an allocation of capital. See "Incentive Fees" above.
Carried interest is allocated to the general partner based on cumulative fund performance to date, and where applicable, subject to a preferred return to the funds' limited partners. At the end of each reporting period, KKR calculates the carried interest that would be due to KKR for each investment fund, pursuant to the fund agreements, as if the fair value of the underlying investments were realized as of such date, irrespective of whether such amounts have been realized. As the fair value of underlying investments varies between reporting periods, it is necessary to make adjustments to amounts recorded as carried interest to reflect either (a) positive performance resulting in an increase in the carried interest allocated to the general partner or (b) negative performance that would cause the amount due to KKR to be less than the amount previously recognized, resulting in a negative adjustment to carried interest allocated to the general partner. In each case, it is necessary to calculate the carried interest on cumulative results compared to the carried interest recorded to date and to make the required positive or negative adjustments. KKR ceases to record negative carried interest allocations once previously recognized carried interest allocations for an investment fund have been fully reversed. KKR is not obligated to make payments for guaranteed returns or hurdles and, therefore, cannot have negative carried interest over the life of an investment fund. Accrued but unpaid carried interest as of the reporting date is reflected in Investments in the consolidated statements of financial condition.

Compensation and Benefits
Compensation and Benefits expense includes (i) cash compensation consisting of salaries, bonuses, and benefits, (ii) equity based compensation consisting of charges associated with the vesting of equity-based awards (see Note 12 "Equity Based Compensation") and (iii) carry pool allocations.
All KKR employees receive a base salary that is paid by KKR or its consolidated entities, and is accounted for as Compensation and Benefits expense in the consolidated statements of operations. These employees are also eligible to receive discretionary cash bonuses based on performance, overall profitability and other matters. While cash bonuses paid to most employees are borne by KKR and certain consolidated entities and result in customary compensation and benefits expense, certain cash bonuses that are paid to certain of KKR's principals can be borne by KKR Holdings. These bonuses are funded with distributions that KKR Holdings receives on KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR Holdings but are not then passed on to holders of unvested units of KKR Holdings. Because KKR principals are not entitled to receive distributions on units that are unvested, any amounts allocated to principals in excess of a principal's vested equity interests are reflected as employee compensation and benefits expense. These compensation charges, if any, are currently recorded based on the amount of cash expected to be paid by KKR Holdings.
Carry Pool Allocation
With respect to KKR's funds that provide for carried interest, KKR allocates to its employees a portion of the carried interest earned in relation to these funds as part of its carry pool. KKR allocates 40% or 43%, depending on the fund's vintage, of the carry it earns from these funds and vehicles to its carry pool. These amounts are accounted for as compensatory profit‑sharing arrangements in Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities within the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition in conjunction with the related carried interest income and recorded as compensation expense. Upon a reversal of carried interest income, the related carry pool allocation, if any, is also reversed. Accordingly, such compensation expense is subject to both positive and negative adjustments.
Profit Sharing Plan
KKR provides certain profit sharing programs for KKR employees. In particular, KKR provides a 401(k) plan for eligible employees in the United States. For certain professionals who are participants in the 401(k) plan, KKR may, in its discretion, contribute an amount after the end of the plan year.
General, Administrative and Other
General, administrative and other expense consists primarily of professional fees paid to legal advisors, accountants, advisors and consultants, insurance costs, travel and related expenses, communications and information services, depreciation and amortization charges, expenses (including impairment charges) incurred by oil and gas entities that are consolidated, broken-deal expenses, placement fees and other general operating expenses. A portion of these general administrative and other expenses, in particular broken-deal expenses, are borne by fund investors.
Investment Income
Investment income consists primarily of the net impact of:
(i)Realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments, securities sold short, derivatives and debt obligations of consolidated CFEs which are recorded in Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities. Upon disposition of an investment, previously recognized unrealized gains or losses are reversed and a realized gain or loss is recognized.
(ii)Foreign exchange gains and losses relating to mark‑to‑market activity on foreign exchange forward contracts, foreign currency options and foreign denominated debt which are recorded in Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities.
(iii)Dividends, which are recognized on the ex‑dividend date, or, in the absence of a formal declaration of a record date, on the date it is received.
(iv)Interest income, which is recognized as earned.
(v)Interest expense, which is recognized as incurred.

Income Taxes
KKR & Co. Inc. is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and thus is subject to U.S. federal, state and local corporate income taxes at the entity level on KKR’s share of net taxable income. In addition, the KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership and certain of theirits subsidiaries operate in the United States as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes and as corporate entities in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions. These entities, in some cases, are subject to U.S. state or local income taxes or non-U.S. income taxes.
PriorDeferred Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method of accounting. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, using tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in the period when the change is enacted.
Deferred tax assets, which are recorded in Other Assets within the statement of financial condition, are reduced by a valuation allowance when, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. When evaluating the realizability of the deferred tax assets, all evidence, both positive and negative, is considered. Items considered when evaluating the need for a valuation allowance include the ability to carry back losses, future reversals of existing temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and expectations of future earnings.
For a particular tax‑paying component of an entity and within a particular tax jurisdiction, deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset and presented as a single amount within Other Assets or Accounts Payable, Accrued and Other Liabilities, as applicable, in the accompanying statements of financial condition.
Uncertain Tax Positions
KKR analyzes its tax filing positions in all of the U.S. federal, state and local tax jurisdictions and foreign tax jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as for all open tax years in these jurisdictions. If, based on this analysis, KKR determines that uncertainties in tax positions exist, a reserve is established. The reserve for uncertain tax positions is recorded in Accounts Payable, Accrued and Other Liabilities in the accompanying statements of financial condition. KKR recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions within the provision for income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations.
KKR records uncertain tax positions on the basis of a two‑step process: (a) determination is made whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (b) those tax positions that meet the more‑likely‑than‑not threshold are recognized as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
KKR considers all highly liquid short‑term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Cash and Cash Equivalents Held at Consolidated Entities

Cash and cash equivalents held at consolidated entities represents cash that, although not legally restricted, is not available to fund general liquidity needs of KKR as the use of such funds is generally limited to the Conversion, KKR & Co. L.P.’s investment incomeactivities of KKR's investment funds and carried interestCFEs.

Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

Restricted cash and cash equivalents primarily represent amounts that are held by third parties under certain of KKR's financing and derivative transactions. The duration of this restricted cash generally were not subject to U.S. corporate income taxes. Subsequent tomatches the Conversion, all income earned by KKR & Co. Inc. is subject to U.S. corporate income taxes.

Fixed assets consist primarily of corporate real estate, leasehold improvements, furniture and computer hardware. Such amounts are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization and are included in Other Assets within the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight‑line method over the assets' estimated economic useful lives, which for leasehold improvements are the lesser of the lease terms or the life of the asset, and three to seven years for other fixed assets.
Freestanding Derivatives

Freestanding derivatives are instruments that KKR and certain of its consolidated funds have entered into as part of their overall risk management and investment strategies. These derivative contracts are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. Such contracts may include forward, swap and option contracts related to foreign currencies and interest rates to manage foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk arising from certain assets and liabilities. All derivatives are recognized in Other Assets or Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities and are presented on a gross basis in the consolidated statements of financial condition and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. KKR's derivative financial instruments contain credit risk to the extent that its counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. KKR attempts to reduce this risk by limiting its counterparties to major financial institutions with strong credit ratings.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired in connection with an acquisition. Goodwill is assessed for impairment annually in the third quarter of each fiscal year or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. Goodwill is recorded in Other Assets in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition.

Securities Sold Short
Whether part of a hedging transaction or a transaction in its own right, securities sold short represent obligations of KKR to deliver the specified security at the contracted price at a future point in time, and thereby create a liability to repurchase the security in the market at the prevailing prices. The liability for such securities sold short, which is recorded in Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities in the statement of financial condition, is marked to market based on the current fair value of the underlying security at the reporting date with changes in fair value recorded as unrealized gains or losses in Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. These transactions may involve market risk in excess of the amount currently reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances, excluding those resulting from contributions from and distributions to owners. In the accompanying consolidated financial statements, comprehensive income is comprised of (i) Net Income (Loss), as presented in the consolidated statements of operations and (ii) net foreign currency translation.

Foreign Currency
Consolidated entities which have a functional currency that differs from KKR's reporting currency are primarily KKR's investment management and capital markets companies located outside the United States and certain CFEs. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Results of foreign operations are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for each reporting period. Translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until realized. Foreign currency income or expenses resulting from transactions outside of the functional currency of a consolidated entity are recorded as incurred in general, administrative and other expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Leases
At contract inception, KKR determines if an arrangement contains a lease by evaluating whether (i) the identified asset has been deployed in the contract explicitly or implicitly and (ii) KKR obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of that underlying asset and directs how and for what purpose the asset is used during the term of the contract. Additionally, at contract inception KKR will evaluate whether the lease is an operating or finance lease. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent KKR’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent KKR’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.
ROU assets and the associated lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. The discount rate implicit in the lease is generally not readily determinable. Consequently, KKR uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available including, but not limited to, collateral assumptions, the term of the lease, and the economic environment in which the lease is denominated at the commencement date in determining the present value of the future lease payments. The ROU assets are recognized as the initial measurement of the lease liabilities plus any initial direct costs and any prepaid lease payments less lease incentives received, if any. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease which are accounted for when it is reasonably certain that KKR will exercise that option. Certain leases that include lease and non-lease components are accounted for as one single lease component. In addition to contractual rent payments, occupancy lease agreements generally include additional payments for certain costs incurred by the landlord, such as building expenses and utilities. To the extent these are fixed or determinable, they are included as part of the lease payments used to measure the Operating Lease Liability.
Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is recorded within Occupancy and Related Charges in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The ROU assets are included in Other Assets and the lease liabilities are included in Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition. See Note 8 "Other Assets and Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities."

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted in 20192020
LeasesMeasurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
In FebruaryJune 2016, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASC 842"ASU 2016-13"), which has subsequently been amended. Thisamended by ASU No. 2018-19, ASU No. 2019-04, ASU No. 2019-05, and ASU No. 2019-11. The amended guidance among other items: (i) requires recognition of leasea company to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets and lease liabilities for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP, ASC 840; (ii) retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases; and (iii) includes the classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases that are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases under ASC 840.
The only material lease activity KKR is engaged in is the leasing of office space where KKR is the lessee under the terms of lease agreements, which have been determined to be operating leases. For operating leases, a lessee is required to: (a) recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measuredheld at the present value ofreporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Prior to ASU 2016-13, GAAP required an "incurred loss" methodology that delayed recognition until it was probable a loss had been incurred. Under ASU 2016-13, the lease payments, inallowance for credit losses must be deducted from the consolidated statement of financial condition; (b) recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that theamortized cost of the lease is allocated overfinancial asset to present the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis,net amount expected to be collected and (c) classify all cash payments within operating activities in the consolidatedincome statement will reflect the measurement of cash flows.
KKR adopted this guidance oncredit losses for newly recognized financial assets as well as the effective date, January 1, 2019, usingexpected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the modified retrospective approach and electing the "Comparatives Under ASC 840 Approach." The Comparatives Under ASC 840 Approach allows an entity to elect not to recast its comparative periods in the period of adoption when transitioning to ASC 842. In doing so, KKR has provided the disclosures required by ASC 840 for the comparative periods. Additionally, KKR has elected the practical expedient package transition election for all leases. The practical expedient package under the new standard allows an entity not to have to reassess its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. KKR also has made the election under ASC 842 to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.
Upon adoption, KKR recorded ROU assets of $153.3 million and lease liabilities of $162.9 million, resulting in no cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2019.period.

Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities ("ASU 2017-08"). This guidance amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. The guidance requires the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The guidance does not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. ASU 2017-08 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. This guidance has been adopted as of January 1, 20192020. Financial instruments measured at fair value are not within the scope of this guidance. Consequently, the adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not result in a cumulative-effect adjustment in retained earnings and did not have a material impact to KKR.
Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2018-02"). Under ASC 740-10-45-15, the effects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances are recorded as a component of tax expense for the period in which the law was enacted, even if the assets and liabilities related to items of accumulated other comprehensive income ("OCI"). ASU 2018-02 allows entities to elect to reclassify from accumulated OCI to retained earnings stranded tax effects that relate to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which was enacted in December 2017 (the "2017 Tax Act") from the change in federal tax rate for all items accounted for in OCI. Entities can also elect to reclassify other stranded tax effects that relate to the 2017 Tax Act, but do not directly relate to the change in the federal tax rate. Tax effects that are stranded in OCI for other reasons may not be reclassified. In the period of adoption, entities that elect to reclassify the income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act from accumulated OCI to retained earnings must disclose that they made such an election. Entities must also disclose a description of other income tax effects related to the 2017 Tax Act that are reclassified from accumulated OCI to retained earnings, if any. The guidance is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. This guidance has been adopted as of January 1, 2019 and did not have a material impact to KKR. KKR did not elect to reclassify stranded tax effects that relate to the 2017 Tax Act from accumulated OCI to retained earnings for all items accounted for in OCI. KKR's policy for releasing income tax effects from accumulated OCI is when all related units of account are liquidated, sold or extinguished.
Effective on January 1, 2020
Goodwill
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This guidance simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating the second step from the goodwill impairment test. The ASU requires goodwill impairments to be measured on the basis of the fair value of a reporting unit relative to the reporting unit's carrying amount rather than on the basis of the implied amount of goodwill relative to the goodwill balance of the reporting unit. The ASU also (i) clarifies the requirements for excluding and allocating foreign currency translation adjustments to reporting units related to an entity's testing of reporting units for goodwill impairment and (ii) clarifies that an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. TheThis guidance is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is allowed for entitieshas been adopted as of January 1, 2017, for annual2020 and any interim impairment tests occurring after January 1, 2017. KKR is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the financial statements.will impact KKR's accounting for any future goodwill impairments.
Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, which addresses a customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement ("CCA") that is a service contract. The ASU aligns the accounting for costs incurred to implement a CCA that is a service arrangement with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. This guidance has been adopted as of January 1, 2020, on a prospective basis, and the impact to KKR was not material.
Effective on January 1, 2021 and Thereafter
Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes
On December 18, 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, which modifies ASC 740 to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The ASU, among other changes, (i) provides a policy election to not allocate consolidated income taxes when a member of a consolidated tax return is not subject to income tax and (ii) provides guidance to evaluate whether a step-up in tax basis of goodwill relates to a business combination in which book goodwill was recognized or a separate transaction. The guidance is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted and this ASU can be applied on either a retrospective or prospective basis.2020. KKR is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the financial statements.
Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting
On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the guidance in GAAP on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The temporary optional expedients and exceptions can be elected through December 31, 2022. For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, KKR has not elected to apply the temporary optional expedients and exceptions and will be reevaluating the application each quarter.

3. NET GAINS (LOSSES) FROM INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES
Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the consolidated statements of operations consist primarily of the realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments (including foreign exchange gains and losses attributable to foreign denominated investments and related activities) and other financial instruments, including those for which the fair value option has been elected. Unrealized gains or losses result from changes in the fair value of these investments and other financial instruments during a period. Upon disposition of an investment or financial instrument, previously recognized unrealized gains or losses are reversed and an offsetting realized gain or loss is recognized in the current period.
The following table summarizes total Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities:

(1)In determining certain of these inputs, management evaluates a variety of factors including economic conditions, industry and market developments, market valuations of comparable companies and company specific developments including exit strategies and realization opportunities. Management has determined that market participants would take these inputs into account when valuing the investments and debt obligations. LTM means last twelve months and EBITDA means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
(2)Inputs were weighted based on the fair value of the investments included in the range.
(3)Unless otherwise noted, this column represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level III investments that would result from an increase to the corresponding unobservable input. A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect. Significant increases and decreases in these inputs in isolation could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.
(4)The directional change from an increase in the weight ascribed to the market comparables approach would increase the fair value of the Level III investments if the market comparables approach results in a higher valuation than the discounted cash flow approach and transaction price. The opposite would be true if the market comparables approach results in a lower valuation than the discounted cash flow approach and transaction price.
(5)The directional change from an increase in the weight ascribed to the discounted cash flow approach would increase the fair value of the Level III investments if the discounted cash flow approach results in a higher valuation than the market comparables approach, transaction price and direct income capitalization approach. The opposite would be true if the discounted cash flow approach results in a lower valuation than the market comparables approach, transaction price and direct income capitalization approach.
(6)The directional change from an increase in the weight ascribed to the transaction price or milestones would increase the fair value of the Level III investments if the transaction price or milestones results in a higher valuation than the market comparables and discounted cash flow approach. The opposite would be true if the transaction price or milestones results in a lower valuation than the market comparables approach and discounted cash flow approach.
(7)The directional change from an increase in the weight ascribed to the direct income capitalization approach would increase the fair value of the Level III investments if the direct income capitalization approach results in a higher valuation than the discounted cash flow approach. The opposite would be true if the direct income capitalization approach results in a lower valuation than the discounted cash flow approach.
(8)The total energy fair value amount includes multiple investments (in multiple locations throughout North America) that are held in multiple investment funds and produce varying quantities of oil, condensate, natural gas liquids, and natural gas. Commodity price may be measured using a common volumetric equivalent where one barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE"), is determined using the ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil, condensate or natural gas liquids. The price per BOE is provided to show the aggregate of all price inputs for the various investments over a common volumetric equivalent although the valuations for specific investments may use price inputs specific to the asset for purposes of our valuations. The discounted cash flows include forecasted production of liquids (oil, condensate, and natural gas liquids) and natural gas with a forecasted revenue ratio of approximately 88% liquids and 12% natural gas.
(9)KKR measures CMBS investments on the basis of the fair value of the financial liabilities of the CMBS vehicle. See Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies."
(10)Includes one Infrastructure investment for $220.0$167.3 million that was valued using a market comparables and discounted cash flow analysis.analysis; weights ascribed were 25% and 75%, respectively. The significant inputs used in the market comparables approach included the Forward EBITDA multiple 9.9x. The significant inputs used in the discounted cash flow approach included the weighted average cost of capital 6.8%8.8% and the enterprise value/LTM EBITDA exit multiple 10.0x.
(11)(10)Consists primarily of investments in common stock, preferred stock, warrants and options of companies that are not private equity, real assets, credit, equity method - other or investments of consolidated CFEs.
In the table above, certain private equity investments may be valued at cost for a period of time after an acquisition as the best indicator of fair value. In addition, certain valuations of private equity investments may be entirely or partially derived by reference to observable valuation measures for a pending or consummated transaction.
The various unobservable inputs used to determine the Level III valuations may have similar or diverging impacts on valuation. Significant increases and decreases in these inputs in isolation and interrelationships between those inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements as noted in the table above.

9. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Consolidated VIEs
KKR consolidates certain VIEs in which it is determined that KKR is the primary beneficiary as described in Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies". The consolidated VIEs are predominately CFEs and certain investment funds sponsored by KKR.
The primary purpose of these VIEs is to provide strategy specific investment opportunities to earn investment gains, current income or both in exchange for management and performance based fees or carried interest. KKR's investment strategies differ for these VIEs differ by product;VIEs; however, the fundamental risks have similar characteristics, including loss of invested capital and loss of management and performance based fees or carried interest. KKR does not provide performance guarantees and has no other financial obligation to provide funding to these consolidated VIEs, beyond amounts previously committed, if any.
Unconsolidated VIEs
KKR holds variable interests in certain VIEs which are not consolidated as it has been determined that KKR is not the primary beneficiary. VIEs that are not consolidated predominantly include certain investment funds sponsored by KKR.
KKR's investment strategies differ by investment fund; however, the fundamental risks have similar characteristics, including loss of invested capital and loss of management and performance based fees or carried interest. KKR's maximum exposure to loss as a result of its investments in the unconsolidated investment funds is the carrying value of such investments, including KKR's capital interest and any unrealized carried interest. Accordingly, disaggregation of KKR's involvement by type of unconsolidated investment fund would not provide more useful information. For these unconsolidated investment funds in which KKR is the sponsor, KKR may have an obligation as general partner to provide commitments to such investment funds. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, KKR's commitments to these unconsolidated investment funds was $2.7$3.9 billion. KKR has not provided any financial support other than its obligated amount as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020.
As of June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the maximum exposure to loss, before allocations to the carry pool and noncontrolling interests, if any, for those VIEs in which KKR is determined not to be the primary beneficiary but in which it has a variable interest is as follows:

10. DEBT OBLIGATIONS
KKR enters into credit agreements and issues debt for its general operating and investment purposes.
KKR consolidates and reports debt obligations of KKR Financial Holdings LLC ("KFN"), which are non-recourse to KKR beyond the assets of KFN.
Certain of KKR's consolidated investment funds borrow to meet financing needs of their operating and investing activities. Fund financing facilities have been established for the benefit of certain investment funds. When an investment fund borrows from the facility in which it participates, the proceeds from the borrowings are limited for their intended use by the borrowing investment fund. KKR's obligations with respect to these financing arrangements are generally limited to KKR's pro rata equity interest in such investment funds.
In certain other cases, KKR has majority-owned consolidated investment vehicles that make investments and purchase other assets with borrowings that are collateralized only by the investments and assets they own.
In addition, consolidated CFE vehicles issue debt securities to third-party investors which are collateralized by assets held by the CFE vehicle. Debt securities issued by CFEs are supported solely by the assets held at the CFEs and are not collateralized by assets of any other KKR entity. CFEs also may have warehouse facilities with banks to provide liquidity to the CFE. The CFE's debt obligations are non-recourse to KKR beyond the assets of the CFE.

11. INCOME TAXES
KKR & Co. Inc. is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and thus is subject to U.S. federal, state and local corporate income taxes at the entity level on KKR’s share of net taxable income. In addition, the KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership and certain of theirits subsidiaries operate in the United States as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes and as corporate entities in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions. These entities, in some cases, are subject to U.S. state or local income taxes or non-U.S. income taxes.
The Conversion resulted in KKR obtaining a partial step-up in the tax basis of certain assets that will be recovered as those assets are sold or the basis is amortized. KKR's overall tax provision is based on, among other things, the amount of such partial step-up in tax basis that is derived from an analysis of the basis of its former unitholders in their ownership of KKR common units at June 30, 2018. On the date of the Conversion, based on the information available to KKR at that time, KKR recorded an estimated net tax benefit and estimated net deferred tax asset of $257.1 million relating to this partial step-up in tax basis. Upon analysis of the basis of KKR's former unitholders in their ownership of KKR common units at June 30, 2018, based on the additional information made available to KKR after December 31, 2018, the final determination of the amount of partial step-up in tax basis resulted in an additional tax benefit of approximately $45.0 million. The additional benefit was recorded in the period ended March 31, 2019.

The effective tax rates were 10.83%7.9% and 3.75%9.3% for the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018, respectively and 10.02% and 3.50% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to the following: (i)because a substantial portion of the reported net income (loss) before taxes is not attributable to KKR but rather is attributable to noncontrolling interests held in KKR’s consolidated entities by KKR Holdings or by third parties, and (ii) with respect to the six months ended June 30, 2019, the tax benefit recognized as a result of the final determination of the amount of the partial step-up in tax basis as a result of the Conversion. For periods prior to the Conversion, the effective rate also differs from the statutory rate as a result of investment income of certain entities and net carried interest of certain general partners of KKR investment funds that were not subject to U.S. federal income taxes prior to the Conversion.parties.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, there were no material changes to KKR’s uncertain tax positions and KKR believes there will be no significant increase or decrease to the uncertain tax positions within 12 months of the reporting date.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") was signed into law. The CARES Act, among other things, includes certain income tax provisions for individuals and corporations; however, it did not have a material impact on KKR's tax provision for the current period.

Such amounts are included in Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the consolidated statements of operations.
Equity Incentive Plans
On March 29, 2019, the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan became effective. Following the effectiveness of the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, KKR will not make any further grants under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, and the 2019 New Equity Incentive Plan became KKR's only plan for providing new equity-based awards. Outstanding awards under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan will remain outstanding, unchanged and subject to the terms of the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan and their respective equity award agreements, until the vesting, expiration or lapse of such awards in accordance with their terms. There are no significant differences in the expense recognition between the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan and the 2019 New Equity Incentive Plan.  
Under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, KKR is permitted to grant equity awards representing ownership interests in KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stock. The total number of shares of Class A common stock that may be issued under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan is equivalent to 15% of the aggregate number of the shares of Class A common stock and KKR Group Partnership Units (excluding KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR & Co. Inc. or its wholly-owned subsidiaries), subject to annual adjustment. Vested awards under the Equity Incentive Plans dilute KKR & Co. Inc. common stockholders and KKR Holdings pro rata in accordance with their respective percentage interests in the KKR Group Partnerships.Partnership.
Equity awards have been granted under the Equity Incentive Plans and are generally subject to service-based vesting, typically over a three to five year period from the date of grant. In certain cases, these awards are subject to transfer restrictions and/or minimum retained ownership requirements. The transfer restriction period, if applicable, lasts for (i) one year with respect to one-half of the interests vesting on any vesting date and (ii) two years with respect to the other one-half of the interests vesting on such vesting date. While providing services to KKR, if applicable, certain of these awards are also subject to minimum retained ownership rules requiring the award recipient to continuously hold shares of Class A common stock equivalents equal to at least 15% of their cumulatively vested awards that have the minimum retained ownership requirement.
Expense associated with the vesting of these awards is based on the closing price of the KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stock on the date of grant, discounted for the lack of participation rights in the expected dividends on unvested shares. The discount range for awards granted prior to December 31, 2015 was based on management's estimates of future dividends that the unvested equity awards would not be entitled to receive between the grant date and the vesting date which ranged from 8% to 56%.
The following table presents information regarding the discount for the lack of participation rights in the expected dividends for shares granted subsequent to December 31, 2015:by grant date:

Market Condition Awards
On November 2, 2017, KKR's Co-Presidents and Co-Chief Operating Officers were each granted equity awards representing 2.5 million shares of KKR Class A common stock subject to a market price-based vesting condition ("Market Condition Awards"). These awards were granted under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. All of such awards will vest upon the market price of KKR Class A common stock reaching and maintaining a closing market price of $40 per share for 10 consecutive trading days on or prior to December 31, 2022, subject to the employee's continued service to the time of such vesting. If the $40 price target is not achieved by the close of business on December 31, 2022, the unvested Market Condition Awards will be automatically canceled and forfeited. These Market Condition Awards are subject to additional transfer restrictions and minimum retained ownership requirements after vesting. Due to the existence of the market condition, the vesting period for the Market Condition Awards is not explicit, and as such, compensation expense will be recognized over the period derived from the valuation technique used to estimate the grant-date fair value of the award (the "Derived Vesting Period").
The fair value of the Market Condition Awards at the date of grant was $4.02 per share based on a Monte-Carlo simulation valuation model due to the existence of the market condition described above.
Below is a summary of the significant assumptions used to estimate the grant date fair value of the Market Condition Awards:
Closing KKR share price as of valuation date $19.90
Risk Free Rate 2.02%
Volatility 25.00%
Dividend Yield 3.42%
Expected Cost of Equity 11.02%

In addition, the grant date fair value assumes that holders of the Market Condition Awards will not participate in dividends until such awards have met their vesting requirements.
Compensation expense is recognized over the Derived Vesting Period, which was estimated to be 3 years from the date of grant, on a straight-line basis.
As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, there was approximately $9.0$4.0 million of estimated unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested Market Condition Awards and such awards did not meet their market-price based vesting condition.
As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, there was approximately $309.8$246.7 million of total estimated unrecognized expense related to unvested awards, including Market Condition Awards. That cost is expected to be recognized as follows:

KKR Holdings Awards
KKR Holdings units are exchangeable for KKR Group Partnership Units and allow for their exchange into Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. on a one-for-one1-for-one basis. As of June 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018, KKR Holdings owned approximately 35.2%34.1% or 296,961,596286,477,271 units and 36.7%35.9% or 304,107,762298,645,285 units, respectively, of outstanding KKR Group Partnership Units. Awards for KKR Holdings units that have been granted are generally subject to service based vesting, typically over a three to five year period from the date of grant. They are also generally subject to transfer restrictions which last for (i) one year with respect to one-half of the interests vesting on any vesting date and (ii) two years with respect to the other one-half of the interests vesting on such vesting date. While providing services to KKR, the recipients are also subject to minimum retained ownership rules requiring them to continuously hold 25% of their vested interests. Upon separation from KKR, award recipients are subject to the terms of a confidentiality and restrictive covenants agreement that would require the forfeiture of certain vested and unvested units should the terms of the agreement be violated. Holders of KKR Holdings units are not entitled to participate in distributions made on KKR Group Partnership Units underlying their KKR Holdings units until such units are vested. All of the KKR Holdings units (except for less than 0.8%1.2% of the outstanding KKR Holdings units) have been granted as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, and certain Holdings units remain subject to vesting.
The fair value of awards granted out of KKR Holdings is generally based on the closing price of KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stock on the date of grant discounted for the lack of participation rights in the expected distributions on unvested units. KKR determined this to be the best evidence of fair value as KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stock is traded in an active market and has an observable market price. Additionally, a KKR Holdings unit is an instrument with terms and conditions similar to those of KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stock. Specifically, units in KKR Holdings and shares of KKR & Co. Inc. represent ownership interests in KKR Group Partnership Units and, subject to any vesting, minimum retained ownership requirements and transfer restrictions, each KKR Holdings unit is exchangeable into a KKR Group Partnership Unit and then into a share of KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stock on a one-for-one1-for-one basis.

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

In February 2016, approximately 28.9 million KKR Holdings units were granted that were originally subject to market condition and service-based vesting that were subsequently modified in November 2016 to eliminate the market condition vesting and instead require only service-based vesting in equal annual installments over a five year period. At the date of modification, total future compensation expense amounted to $320.9 million, net of estimated forfeitures, to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of the modified awards.
The awards described above were granted from outstanding but previously unallocated units of KKR Holdings, and consequently these grants did not increase the number of KKR Holdings units outstanding or outstanding KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stock on a fully-diluted basis. If and when vested, these awards will not dilute KKR's respective ownership interests in the KKR Group Partnerships.Partnership.
KKR Holdings Awardsawards give rise to equity-based compensation in the consolidated statements of operations based on the grant-date fair value of the award discounted for the lack of participation rights in the expected distributions on unvested units. This discount is consistent with that noted above for shares issued under the Equity Incentive Plans.

14. SEGMENT REPORTING
KKR operates through one1 operating and reportable segment. This single reportable segment reflects how the chief operating decision makers allocate resources and assess performance under KKR's "one-firm approach," which includes operating collaboratively across business lines, with predominantly a single expense pool.

15. EQUITY
Stockholders' Equity
Class A, Class B and Class C Common Stock
Class A common stock is presented priorentitled to giving effectvote as provided by our certificate of incorporation, Delaware law and the rules of the NYSE. Class B common stock is entitled to vote on any other matter that is submitted to a vote of the stockholders. For matters on which our Class A common stock is entitled to vote, so long as the ratio at which KKR Group Partnership Units are exchangeable for Class A common stock remains on a one-for-one basis, Class C common stock will vote together with Class A common stock as a single class and on an equivalent basis unless required otherwise by Delaware law, except Class C common stock will vote separately as a class on any amendment to the allocationcertificate of income (loss) between KKR & Co. Inc.incorporation that changes certain terms, rights or preferences of Class C common stock.
The holder of Class B common stock and KKR Holdings L.P.holders of Class C common stock do not have any economic rights to receive dividends or receive distributions upon the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of KKR. Class A common stock, Class B common stock and as such representsClass C common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights, and, except in the business in total. In addition, KKR’s segment reporting is presented without giving effect to the consolidationcase of impermissible transfers of the investment funds and CFEs that KKR manages as well as other consolidated entities thatClass B common stock, which would result in KKR’s redemption of such Class B common stock, are not subsidiaries of KKR & Co. Inc. The segment measures used in KKR’s segment reporting, including segment revenues, segment expenses, after-tax distributable earnings, segment assets, segment liabilities, and segment book value are used by management in making operational and resource deployment decisions as well as assessing the overall performance of KKR’s business.subject to conversion, redemption or sinking fund provisions.
After-tax Distributable EarningsSee Note 17. "Subsequent Events."
After-tax distributable earnings is a performance measure of KKR’s earnings on a segment basis excluding mark-to-market gains (losses). Starting with the second quarter of 2018, it is defined as the amount of net realized earnings of KKR for a given reporting period, after deducting equity-based compensation. KKR revised the definition of after-tax distributable earnings starting in the second quarter of 2018, because it reflects how the chief operating decision makers allocate resources and assess the performance of KKR’s business. KKR believes that after-tax distributable earnings is useful to stockholders as it aligns KKR’s net realization performance with the manner in which KKR receives its revenues and determines the compensation of its employees. After-tax distributable earnings does not represent and is not used to calculate actual dividends under KKR’s dividend policy. Historically, equity-based compensation expense relating to the Equity Incentive Plans was not reflected in our calculation of after-tax distributable earnings. Under KKR’s segment presentation, equity-based compensation expense is included in after-tax distributable earnings as a component of compensation expense in order to reflect the dilutive nature of these non-cash equity-based awards. For comparability, after-tax distributable earnings for the comparable prior periods have been calculated using this definition.

15. EQUITY
Share Repurchase Program
InKKR has increased the first quarter of 2019, KKR increased thetotal available amount under its repurchase program to $500 million, which may be used for the repurchase of its shares of Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. and retirement of equity awards issuedgranted pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plans. Under this repurchase program, shares of Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by KKR in its discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. In addition to the repurchases of Class A common stock, the repurchase program will be used for the retirement (by cash settlement or the payment of tax withholding amounts upon net settlement) of equity awards granted pursuant to our Equity Incentive Plans representing the right to receive Class A common stock. KKR expects that the program, which has no expiration date, will be in effect until the maximum approved dollar amount has been used. The program does not require KKR to repurchase or retire any specific number of shares of Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc.,or equity awards, respectively, and the program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, approximately 1.4 million shares of

(2)With respect to noncontrolling interests held by KKR Holdings, calculated on a pro rata basis based on the weighted average KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR Holdings during the reporting period. 
(3)Calculated based on the proportion of KKR Holdings units exchanged for KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stock during the reporting period.stock. The exchange agreement with KKR Holdings provides for the exchange of KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR Holdings for KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stock.
(4)KKR acquired KKR Capstone on January 1, 2020. KKR Capstone was consolidated prior to January 1, 2020 and consequently, this transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction. This transaction resulted in an increase to the KKR Group Partnership equity. Accordingly, both KKR's equity and noncontrolling interests held by KKR Holdings increased for their proportionate share of the KKR Capstone equity based on their ownership in KKR Group Partnership on January 1, 2020.
Net income (loss) attributable to each of KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stockholders and KKR Holdings, with the exception of certain tax assets and liabilities that are directly allocable to KKR & Co. Inc., is attributed based on the percentage of the weighted average KKR Group Partnership Units directly or indirectly held by KKR & Co. Inc. and KKR Holdings, each of which directly or indirectly holds equity of the KKR Group Partnerships.Partnership. However, primarily because of the (i) contribution of certain expenses borne entirely by KKR Holdings, (ii) the periodic exchange of KKR Holdings units for KKR & Co. Inc. Class A common stock pursuant to the exchange agreement and (iii) the contribution of certain expenses borne entirely by KKR associated with the Equity Incentive Plans, equity allocations shown in the consolidated statement of changes in equity differ from their respective pro rata ownership interests in KKR's net assets.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests represent noncontrolling interests of certain investment funds and vehicles that are subject to periodic redemption by fund investors following the expiration of a specified period of time (typically one year), or may be withdrawn subject to a redemption fee during the period when capital may not be otherwise withdrawn. Fund investors interests subject to redemption as described above are presented as Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition and presented as Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. There was no impact to Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests upon Conversion.
When redeemable amounts become legally payable to fund investors, they are classified as a liability and included in Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition. For all consolidated investment vehicles and funds in which redemption rights have not been granted, noncontrolling interests are presented within Stockholders' Equity in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition as noncontrolling interests.

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Funding Commitments
As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, KKR had unfunded commitments consisting of $5,307.3$6,235.5 million to its active investment vehicles. In addition to the uncalled commitments to KKR's investment funds, KKR has entered into contractual commitments with respect to (i) the purchase of investments and other assets in its Principal Activities business line and (ii) underwriting transactions, debt financing, and syndications in KKR's Capital Markets business line. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, these commitments amounted to $17.4$200.0 million and $735.2$570.8 million, respectively. Whether these amounts are actually funded, in whole or in part, depends on the contractual terms of such commitments, including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions to closing or funding. The unfunded commitments shown for KKR's Capital Markets business line are shown without reflecting arrangements that may reduce the actual amount of contractual commitments shown occurring after June 30, 2019. KKR's capital markets business has an arrangement with a third party, which reduces its risk when underwriting certain debt transactions, and thus our unfunded commitments as of June 30, 2019 areMarch 31, 2020 have been reduced to reflect the amount to be funded by such third party. In the case of purchases of investments or assets in KKR's Principal Activities business line, the amount to be funded includes amounts that are intended to be syndicated to third parties, and the actual amounts to be funded may be less than shown.

Non-cancelable Operating Leases

KKR's non-cancelable operating leases consist of leases of office space around the world. There are no material rent holidays, contingent rent, rent concessions or leasehold improvement incentives associated with any of these property leases. In addition to base rentals, certain lease agreements are subject to escalation provisions and rent expense is recognized on a straight‑line basis over the term of the lease agreement.
As of June 30, 2019, the approximate aggregate future lease payments, net of sublease income, required on the operating leases are as follows:
  
July 2019 - June 2020$50,231
July 2020 - June 202257,497
July 2022 - June 202423,093

As of June 30, 2019, KKR has an additional operating lease for office space that has not yet commenced with future lease payments of approximately £66.9 million (or $84.2 million) over a lease term of 15 years. This operating lease is denominated in Pound Sterling.

As of December 31, 2018, the approximate aggregate minimum future lease payments, net of sublease income, required on the operating leases are as follows:

Contingent Repayment Guarantees
The partnership documents governing KKR's carry-paying investment funds and vehicles generally include a "clawback" provision that, if triggered, may give rise to a contingent obligation requiring the general partner to return amounts to the fund for distribution to the fund investors at the end of the life of the fund. Under a clawback obligation, upon the liquidation of a fund, the general partner is required to return, typically on an after-tax basis, previously distributed carry to the extent that, due to the diminished performance of later investments, the aggregate amount of carry distributions received by the general partner during the term of the fund exceed the amount to which the general partner was ultimately entitled, including the effects of any performance thresholds. As of June 30, 2019, noMarch 31, 2020, approximately $155 million of carried interest was subject to this clawback obligation, assuming that all applicable carry-paying funds were liquidated at their June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 fair values. HadOf this amount, approximately $62 million is the obligation of certain current and former KKR employees, and approximately $93 million is the obligation of KKR. If the investments in suchall of our funds beenwere to be liquidated at zero0 value, the clawback obligation would have beenbe approximately $2.2$2.4 billion. Of this amount, approximately $1.0 billion would be the obligation of certain current and former KKR employees, and approximately $1.4 billion would be the obligation of KKR. Carried interest is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations based on the contractual conditions set forth in the agreements governing the fund as if the fund were terminated and liquidated at the reporting date and the fund's investments were realized at the then estimated fair

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

values. Amounts earned pursuant to carried interest are earned by the general partner of those funds to the extent that cumulative investment returns are positive and where applicable, preferred return thresholds have been met. If these investment amounts earned decrease or turn negative in subsequent periods, recognized carried interest will be reversed and to the extent that the aggregate amount of carry distributions received by the general partner during the term of the fund exceed the amount to which the general partner was ultimately entitled, a clawback obligation would be recorded. For funds that are consolidated, this clawback obligation, if any, is reflected as an increase in noncontrolling interests in the consolidated statements of financial condition. For funds that are not consolidated, this clawback obligation, if any, is reflected as a reduction of KKR's investment balance as this is where carried interest is initially recorded.

Indemnifications and Other Guarantees
KKR may incur contingent liabilities for claims that may be made against it in the future. KKR enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations, warranties and covenants, including indemnifications. For example, KKR, certain of KKR's investment funds and KFN have provided certain indemnities relating to environmental and other matters and have provided non-recourse carve-out guarantees for fraud, willful misconduct and other customary wrongful acts, each in connection with the financing of KKR's corporate real estate and certain real estate investments and for certain investment vehicles that KKR manages. In addition, KKR has also provided credit support to certain of its subsidiaries' obligations in connection with a limited number of investment vehicles that KKR manages. For example, KKR has guaranteed the obligations of a general partner to post collateral on behalf of its investment vehicle in connection with such vehicle's derivative transactions, and KKR has also agreed to be liable for certain investment losses and/or for providing liquidity in the events specified in the governing documents of other investment vehicles. However, KKR is not a guarantor for any borrowings, credit facilities or debt securities of its Indian debt financing company. KKR has also provided credit support regarding repayment obligations to third-party lenders to certain of its employees, excluding its executive officers, in connection with their personal investments in KKR investment funds and to a hedge fund partnership regarding the ownership of its business. KKR also may become liable for certain fees payable to sellers of businesses or assets if a transaction does not close, subject to certain conditions, if any, specified in the acquisition agreements for such businesses or assets. KKR's maximum exposure under these arrangements is currently unknown and KKR's liabilities for these matters would require a claim to be made against KKR in the future.
Litigation
From time to time, KKR is involved in various legal proceedings, lawsuits and claims incidental to the conduct of KKR's business. KKR's business is also subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory proceedings against it.
In December 2017, KKR & Co. L.P. and its Co-Chief Executive Officers were named as defendants in a lawsuit pending in Kentucky state court alleging, among other things, the violation of fiduciary and other duties in connection with certain separately managed accounts that Prisma Capital Partners LP, a former subsidiary of KKR, manages for the Kentucky Retirement Systems. Also named as defendants in the lawsuit are certain current and former trustees and officers of the Kentucky Retirement Systems, Prisma Capital Partners LP, and various other service providers to the Kentucky Retirement Systems and their related persons. TheKKR and other defendants’ motionmotions to dismiss waswere denied by the trial court in November 2018, but in April 2019 the Kentucky Court of Appeals vacated the trial court's opinion and order denying the motionmotions to dismiss the case for lack of standing. The decision of the Court of Appeals has been appealed by plaintiffs to the Supreme Court of Kentucky.Kentucky, whose decision is pending.
KKR currently is and expects to continue to become, from time to time, subject to examinations, inquiries and investigations by various U.S. and non-U.S. governmental and regulatory agencies, including but not limited to the SEC, Department of Justice, state attorney generals, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, and the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority. Such examinations, inquiries and investigations may result in the commencement of civil, criminal or administrative proceedings or fines against KKR or its personnel.
Moreover, in the ordinary course of business, KKR is and can be both the defendant and the plaintiff in numerous lawsuits with respect to acquisitions, bankruptcy, insolvency and other types of proceedings. Such lawsuits may involve claims that adversely affect the value of certain investments owned by KKR's funds. 
KKR establishes an accrued liability for legal proceedings only when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. In such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts accrued. No loss contingency is recorded for matters where such losses are either not probable or reasonably estimable (or both) at the time of determination. Such matters may be subject to many uncertainties, including among others: (i) the proceedings may be in early stages; (ii) damages sought may be unspecified, unsupportable, unexplained or uncertain; (iii) discovery may not have been

started or is incomplete; (iv) there may be uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions; (v) there may be significant factual issues to be resolved or (vi) there may be novel legal issues or unsettled legal theories to be presented or a large number of parties. Consequently, management is unable to estimate a range of potential loss, if any, related to these matters. In addition, loss contingencies may be, in part or in whole, subject to insurance or other payments such as contributions and/or indemnity, which may reduce any ultimate loss.
It is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of all pending legal proceedings, and some of the matters discussed above seek or may seek potentially large and/or indeterminate amounts. As of such date, based on information known by management, management has not concluded that the final resolutions of the matters above will have a material effect upon the financial statements. However, given the potentially large and/or indeterminate amounts sought or may be sought in certain of

59

Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

these matters and the inherent unpredictability of investigations and litigations, it is possible that an adverse outcome in certain matters could, from time to time, have a material effect on KKR's financial results in any particular period.

The gross IRR, net IRR and gross multiple of invested capital are calculated for our investment funds that made their first investment at least 24 months prior to June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. None of the Asian Fund III, Real Estate Partners Americas II, Global Infrastructure Investors III, European Fund V, or Energy Income and Growth Fund II, Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II, Global Impact Fund, Asia Pacific Infrastructure Investors, or Property Partners Americas has invested for at least 24 months as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. We therefore have not calculated gross IRRs, net IRRs and gross multiples of invested capital with respect to those funds.
(4)An investment is considered realized when it has been disposed of or has otherwise generated disposition proceeds or current income that has been distributed by the relevant fund. In periods prior to the three months ended September 30, 2015, realized proceeds excluded current income such as dividends and interest. Realizations have not been shown for those investment funds that have either made their first investment more recently than 24 months prior to June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 or have not had any realizations.
(5)IRRs measure the aggregate annual compounded returns generated by a fund's investments over a holding period. Net IRRs are calculated after giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees and organizational expenses. Gross IRRs are calculated before giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees and organizational expenses.
The gross multiples of invested capital measure the aggregate value generated by a fund's investments in absolute terms. Each multiple of invested capital is calculated by adding together the total realized and unrealized values of a fund's investments and dividing by the total amount of capital invested by the fund. Such amounts do not give effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest or the payment of any applicable management fees or organizational expenses.
KKR's Private Markets funds may utilize third-party financing facilities to provide liquidity to such funds. The above net and gross IRRs are calculated from the time capital contributions are due from fund investors to the time fund investors receive a related distribution from the fund, and the use of such financing facilities generally decreases the amount of invested capitaltime that would otherwise be used to calculate IRRs, which tends to increase IRRs when fair value grows over time and decrease IRRs when fair value decreases over time. KKR's Private Markets funds also generally provide in certain circumstances, which vary depending on the relevant fund documents, for a portion of capital returned to investors to be restored to unused commitments as recycled capital. For KKR's Private Markets funds that have a preferred return, we take into account recycled capital in the calculation of IRRs and multiples of invested capital because the calculation of the preferred return includes the effect of recycled capital. For KKR's Private Markets funds that do not have a preferred return, we do not take recycled capital into account in the calculation of IRRs and multiples of invested capital. The inclusion of recycled capital generally causes invested and realized amounts to be higher and IRRs and multiples of invested capital to be lower than had recycled capital not been included. The inclusion of recycled capital would reduce the composite net IRR of all Included Funds by 0.1% and the composite net IRR of all Legacy Funds by 0.5% and would reduce the composite multiple of invested capital of Included Funds by less than 0.1 and the composite multiple of invested capital of Legacy Funds by 0.4.

Public Markets
 
Through our Public Markets business line, we operate our combined credit and hedge funds platforms. Our credit business invests capital in (i) leveraged credit strategies, including leveraged loans, high-yield bonds, opportunistic credit and revolving credit strategies, and (ii) alternative credit strategies, including special situations and private credit strategies such as direct lending and private opportunistic credit (or mezzanine) investment strategies. The funds, CLOs, separately managed accounts, investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment Company Act"), including business development companies ("BDCs"), and alternative investment funds ("AIFs") in our leveraged credit and alternative credit strategies are managed by KKR Credit Advisors (US) LLC, which is an SEC-registered investment adviser, and KKR Credit Advisors (Ireland) Unlimited Company, which is regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland ("CBI"). Our business development company ("BDC") platform consists of BDCs advised by FS/KKR Advisor, LLC ("FS/KKR Advisor"), which is an investment adviser jointly owned by KKR and Franklin Square Holdings, L.P. ("FS Investments") following the completion of our strategic partnership with FS Investments on April 9, 2018. Our Public Markets business line also includes our hedge funds platform, which consists of strategic partnerships with third-party hedge fund managers in which KKR owns a minority stake (which we refer to as "hedge fund partnerships"). Our

hedge fund partnerships offer a variety of investment strategies, including hedge fund-of-funds, equity hedge funds and credit hedge funds. Our BDC platform consists of BDCs advised by FS/KKR Advisor, LLC ("FS/KKR Advisor"), which began serving as the investment adviser to BDCs that were previously advised or sub-advised by KKR and Franklin Square Holdings, L.P. ("FS Investments") following the completion of our strategic partnership with FS Investments on April 9, 2018 (the "FS Investments Transaction").

We intend to continue to grow the Public Markets business line by leveraging our global investment platform, experienced investment professionals and the ability to adapt our investment strategies to different market conditions to capitalize on investment opportunities that may arise at various levels of the capital structure and across market cycles.

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our Public Markets business line had $93.6$93.0 billion of AUM, comprised of $38.1$37.9 billion of assets managed in our leveraged credit strategies (which include $2.8$4.3 billion of assets managed in our opportunistic credit strategy and $1.9$1.8 billion of assets managed in our revolving credit strategy), $7.2$5.1 billion of assets managed in our special situations strategy, $23.7$23.9 billion of assets managed in our private credit strategies, $23.8$25.3 billion of assets managed through our hedge fund platform, and $0.8 billion of assets managed in other strategies. Our private credit strategies include $17.1$17.5 billion of assets managed in our direct lending strategy and $6.6$6.4 billion of assets managed in our private opportunistic credit strategy. Assets managed through our hedge fund platform represent KKR's pro rata portion of AUM of our hedge fund partnerships. Our BDC platform has approximately $16.2$15.3 billion in combined assets under management, which are reflected in the AUM of our leveraged credit strategies and alternative credit strategies above. We report all of the assets under management of the BDCs in our BDC platform. We report only a pro rata portion of the AUM in our strategic partnership with third-party hedge fund managers based on KKR's percentage ownership in them.

Performance
We generally review our performance in our credit platformbusiness by investment strategy.
 
Our leveraged credit strategies principally invest through separately managed accounts, BDCs, CLOs and investment funds. In certain cases, these strategies have meaningful track records and may be compared to widely-known indices. The following table presents information regarding larger leveraged credit strategies managed by KKR from inception to June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. However, the information presented below is not intended to be representative of any past or future performance for any particular period other than the period presented below. Past performance is no guarantee of any future result.

The benchmarks referred to herein include the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (the "S&P/LSTA Loan Index"), S&P/LSTA U.S. B/BB Ratings Loan Index (the "S&P/LSTA BB-B Loan Index"), the Bank of America Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index (the "BoAML HY Master II Index"), the BofA Merrill Lynch BB-B US High Yield Index (the "BoAML HY BB-B Constrained"), the Credit Suisse Institutional Western European Leveraged Loan Index (the "CS Inst West European Leveraged Loan Index"), and S&P European Leveraged Loans (All Loans). The S&P/LSTA Loan Index is a daily tradable index for the U.S. loan market that seeks to mirror the market-weighted performance of the largest institutional loans that meet certain criteria. The S&P/ LSTA BB-B Loan Index is comprised of loans in the S&P/LSTA Loan Index, whose rating is BB+, BB, BB-, B+, B or B-. The BoAML HY Master II Index is an index for high-yield corporate bonds. It is designed to measure the broad high-yield market, including lower-rated securities. The BoAML HY BB-B Constrained is a subset of the BoAML HY Master II Index including all securities rated BB1 through B3, inclusive. The CS Inst West European Leveraged Loan Index contains only institutional loan facilities priced above 90, excluding TL and TLa facilities and loans rated CC, C or are in default. The S&P European Leveraged Loan Index reflects the market-weighted performance of institutional leveraged loan portfolios investing in European credits. While the returns of our leveraged credit strategies reflect the reinvestment of income and dividends, none of the indices presented in the chart above reflect such reinvestment, which has the effect of increasing the reported relative performance of these strategies as compared to the indices. Furthermore, these indices are not subject to management fees, incentive allocations, or expenses.

Performance is based on a blended composite of Bank Loans Plus High Yield strategy accounts. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the Bank Loans Plus High Yield strategy is based on 65% S&P/LSTA Loan Index and 35% BoAML HY Master II Index.

(3)The Opportunistic Credit strategy invests in high-yield securities and corporate loans with no preset allocation. The Benchmarkbenchmark used for purposes of comparison for the Opportunistic Credit strategy presented herein is based on the50% S&P/LSTA Loan Index and 50% BoAML HY Master II Index. Funds within this strategy may utilize third-party financing facilities to enhance investment returns. In cases where financing facilities are used, the amounts drawn on the facility are deducted from the assets of the fund in the calculation of net asset value, which tends to increase returns when net asset value grows over time and decrease returns when net asset value decreases over time.

Our alternative credit strategies primarily invest in more illiquid instruments through private investment funds, BDCs and separately managed accounts. The following table presents information regarding our Public Markets alternative credit commingled funds where investors are subject to capital commitments from inception to June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. Some of these funds have been investing for less than 24 months, and thus their performance is less meaningful and not included below. In addition, the information presented below is not intended to be representative of any past or future performance for any particular period other than the period presented below. Past performance is no guarantee of any future result.

(1)    Recycled capital is excluded from the amounts invested and realized. 
(2)    These credit funds utilize third-party financing facilities to provide liquidity to such funds, and in such an event, IRRs are calculated from the time capital contributions are due from fund investors to the time fund investors receive a related distribution from the fund. The use of such financing facilities generally decreases the amount of invested capital that would otherwise be used to calculate IRRs, which tends to increase IRRs when fair value grows over time and decrease IRRs when fair value decreases over time. IRRs measure the aggregate annual compounded returns generated by a fund's investments over a holding period and are calculated taking into account recycled capital. Net IRRs presented are calculated after giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees. Gross IRRs are calculated before giving effect to the allocation of carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees.
 (3)   The multiples of invested capital measure the aggregate value generated by a fund's investments in absolute terms. Each multiple of invested capital is calculated by adding together the total realized and unrealized values of a fund's investments and dividing by the total amount of capital invested by the investors. The use of financing facilities generally decreases the amount of invested capital that would otherwise be used to calculate multiples of invested capital, which tends to increase multiples when fair value grows over time and decrease multiples when fair value decreases over time. Such amounts do not give effect to the allocation of any realized and unrealized returns on a fund's investments to the fund's general partner pursuant to a carried interest or the payment of any applicable management fees and are calculated without taking into account recycled capital.

Capital Markets
 
Our Capital Markets business line is comprised of our global capital markets business, which is integrated with KKR's other business lines, and serves our firm, our portfolio companies and third-party clients by developing and implementing both traditional and non-traditional capital solutions for investments or companies seeking financing. These services include arranging debt and equity financing, placing and underwriting securities offerings, and providing other types of capital markets services that may result in the firm receiving fees, including underwriting, placement, transaction and syndication fees, commissions, underwriting discounts, interest payments and other compensation, which may be payable in cash or securities, in respect of the activities described above.

Our capital markets business underwrites credit facilities and arranges loan syndications and participations. When we are sole arrangers of a credit facility, we may advance amounts to the borrower on behalf of other lenders, subject to repayment. When we underwrite an offering of securities on a firm commitment basis, we commit to buy and sell an issue of securities and generate revenue by purchasing the securities at a discount or for a fee. When we act in an agency capacity or best efforts basis, we generate revenue for arranging financing or placing securities with capital markets investors. We may also provide issuers with capital markets advice on security selection, access to markets, marketing considerations, securities pricing, and other aspects of capital markets transactions in exchange for a fee. Our capital markets business also provides syndication services in

respect of co-investments in transactions participated in by KKR funds or third-party clients, which may entitle the firm to receive syndication fees, management fees and/or a carried interest.
    
The capital markets business has a global footprint, with local presence and licenses to carry out certain broker-dealer activities in various countries in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Middle East. Our flagship capital markets subsidiary is KKR Capital Markets LLC, an SEC-registered broker-dealer and a member of the Financial Industry Regulation Authority ("FINRA").

Principal Activities
Through our Principal Activities business line, we manage the firm's own assets on our balance sheet and deploy capital to support and grow our business lines. Typically, the funds in our Private Markets and Public Markets business lines contractually require us, as general partner of the funds, to make sizable capital commitments from time to time. We believe making general partner commitments assists us in raising new funds from limited partners by demonstrating our conviction in a given fund's strategy. We also use our balance sheet to acquire investments in order to help establish a track record for fundraising purposes in new strategies. We may also use our own capital to seed investments for new funds, to bridge capital selectively for our funds' investments or finance strategic acquisitions and partnerships, although the financial results of an acquired business or hedge fund partnership may be reported in our other business lines.
Our Principal Activities business line also provides the required capital to fund the various commitments of our Capital Markets business line when underwriting or syndicating securities, or when providing term loan commitments for transactions involving our portfolio companies and for third parties. Our Principal Activities business line also holds assets that may be utilized to satisfy regulatory requirements for our Capital Markets business line and risk retention requirements for our CLOs.
We also make opportunistic investments through our Principal Activities business line, which include co-investments alongside our Private Markets and Public Markets funds as well as Principal Activities investments that do not involve our Private Markets or Public Markets funds.
We endeavor to use our balance sheet strategically and opportunistically to generate an attractive risk-adjusted return on equity in a manner that is consistent with our fiduciary duties, in compliance with applicable laws, and consistent with our one-firm approach.
The chart below presents the holdings of our Principal Activities business line by asset class as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020:

Business Environment
Economic and Market Conditions
Impact of COVID-19

The outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19") continues to impact the United States and other countries throughout the world. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic and the United States declared a national emergency due to the outbreak. In connection with these declarations, various governments around the world have instituted measures to slow the transmissions of COVID-19, which substantially restrict individual and business activities. These measures include, for example, closures of non-essential businesses, limitations of crowd size, stay-at-home orders, quarantines, heightened border controls and limitations on travel. Governments in the United States and around the world have responded with fiscal and monetary stimuli that aim to provide emergency assistance to individuals and businesses negatively impacted by COVID-19. The outbreak of COVID-19 and the actions taken in response have had far reaching impact on the U.S. and global economies, contributing to significant volatility in the financial markets, resulting in a general decline in equity prices (including our common stock) and lower interest rates, and causing furloughs and layoffs in the labor market.
We are monitoring developments relating to the global spread of COVID-19 and continuing to assess the potential for adverse impact on our business, including the investment funds we manage and the portfolio companies owned by us and our funds. In addition, we have implemented various initiatives intended to reduce the impact of COVID-19, such as employees working remotely from home, while also seeking to maintain business continuity.
The scale and scope of the COVID-19 pandemic may heighten the potential adverse effects on our business, financial performance and operating results for the quarterly periods and full fiscal year of 2020 and possibly beyond, and may be material and affect us in ways that we cannot foresee at this time. Many of the adverse ways in which COVID-19 may impact us have already materialized and adversely affected (or started to materialize and to adversely affect) our stock price, our portfolio valuations, and the operations of our business and the businesses of our portfolio companies, as well as the businesses of entities of which we or our funds are creditors, and our and their other counterparties, including suppliers and customers. These risks may, in the future, become even more significant than is currently the case or than is currently anticipated. Although it is impossible to predict with certainty the potential full magnitude of the business and economic ramifications, COVID-19 has impacted, and may further impact, our business in various ways, including but not limited to:
Difficult market and economic conditions may adversely impact the valuations of our and our funds’ investments, particularly if the value of an investment is determined in whole or in part by reference to public equity markets. As points of reference, the S&P 500 Index declined 20% and MSCI World, Europe and Asia Pacific indices declined 21%, 24% and 19%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2020. With respect to credit markets, the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index and BAML US High Yield Index were each down 13% in the first quarter of 2020. Valuations of our and our funds’ investments are generally correlated to the performance of the relevant equity and debt markets.
Valuations of many of our investments as of March 31, 2020 were lower compared to December 31, 2019, driven primarily by actual and expected revenue declines and decreases in value of our publicly traded portfolio companies and of comparable companies in the case of our privately held portfolio companies, in each case, primarily arising out of the COVID-19 pandemic. These valuation declines had an adverse impact on the overall value of our investment portfolio as of March 31, 2020, as well as a corresponding impact on our book value per share, accrued carried interest and assets under management. Some of the factors that drove these declines, particularly period over period revenue declines, are continuing in the second quarter and may continue for substantially longer periods of time;
COVID-19 significantly increases the challenges associated with business planning, strategy, execution, portfolio management, fundraising, and other aspects of our business operations, the operation of our portfolio companies' businesses, and the operation of entities to whom we or our funds have loaned money or otherwise do business through supply or customer relationships. None of us, our portfolio companies or our and their respective counterparties, vendors, or advisors have previously faced a situation that we view as comparable to the current COVID-19 crisis, which, among other factors, involves a major simultaneous supply and demand shock to global, regional and national economies and significant outsize effects on particular business sectors. The future trajectory of the COVID-19 crisis is subject to a complex interplay of epidemiological, technological, social, psychological, economic and political factors that are generally beyond our ability to forecast or control. In this environment, historical comparisons may be of little or no value, while the risk and uncertainty associated with a large number of business decisions is materially increased.

Limitation on travel and social distancing requirements implemented in response to COVID-19 challenge our ability to market new or successor funds as anticipated prior to COVID-19, potentially resulting in reduced or delayed revenues. In addition, fund investors may become restricted by their asset allocation policies to invest in new or successor funds that we provide, because these policies often restrict the amount that they are permitted to invest in alternative assets like the strategies of our investment funds in light of the recent decline in public equity markets. Further, the COVID-19 crisis may cause fund investors to change their investment strategies in manners that we cannot now foresee, and that may additionally and negatively affect our ability to raise funds from traditional or other sources;
While the market dislocation caused by COVID-19 would expect to present attractive investment opportunities, due to increased volatility in the financial markets, we may not be able to complete those investments;
If the impact of COVID-19 continues, we and our funds may have more limited opportunities to successfully exit existing investments, due to, among other reasons, lower valuations, decreased revenues and earnings, lack of potential buyers with financial resources to pursue an acquisition, or limited or no ability to conduct initial public offerings in equity capital markets, resulting in a reduced ability to realize value from such investments;
Our portfolio companies are facing or may face in the future increased credit and liquidity risk due to volatility in financial markets, reduced revenue streams, and limited or higher cost of access to preferred sources of funding, which may result in potential impairment of our or our funds’ equity investments. Changes in the debt financing markets are impacting, or, if the volatility in financial market continues, may in the future impact, the ability of our portfolio companies to meet their respective financial obligations. We and our funds may experience similar difficulties, and certain funds have been subject to margin calls when the value of securities that collateralize their margin loan decreased substantially;
Borrowers of loans, notes and other credit instruments in our credit funds’ portfolio are more likely to be unable to meet their principal or interest payment obligations or satisfy financial covenants, and tenants leasing real estate properties owned by our funds are more likely not to be able to pay rents in a timely manner or at all, resulting in a decrease in value of our funds’ credit and real estate investments and lower than expected return. In addition, for variable interest instruments, lower reference rates resulting from government stimulus programs in response to COVID-19 could lead to lower interest income for our credit funds;
Many of our portfolio companies operate in industries that are materially impacted by COVID-19, including but not limited to healthcare, travel, entertainment, hospitality, senior living, energy and retail industries. Many of these companies are facing operational and financial hardships resulting from the spread of COVID-19 and related governmental measures, such as the closure of stores, restrictions on travel, quarantines or stay-at-home orders. If the disruptions caused by COVID-19 continue and the restrictions put in place are not lifted, the businesses of these portfolio companies could suffer materially or become insolvent, which would decrease the value of our funds’ investments. For a discussion of the pandemic's impact on our energy investments, see "—Commodity Markets";
COVID-19 may generate workplace, consumer, insurance, contract and other forms of litigation that exposes us, our portfolio companies, suppliers, customers, debtors and other counterparties to risks and claims of a magnitude and nature that we cannot now anticipate;
An extended period of remote working by our employees could strain our technology resources and introduce operational risks, including heightened cybersecurity risk. Remote working environments are less secure and more susceptible to hacking attacks, including phishing and social engineering attempts that seek to exploit the COVID-19 pandemic; and
COVID-19 presents a significant threat to our employees’ well-being and morale. While we have implemented a business continuity plan to protect the health of our employees and have contingency plans in place for key employees or executive officers who may become sick or otherwise unable to perform their duties for an extended period of time, such plans cannot anticipate all scenarios, and we may experience potential loss of productivity or a delay in the roll out of certain strategic plans.
Given the ongoing nature of the outbreak, at this time we cannot reasonably predict the magnitude of the ultimate impact that COVID-19 will have on our business, financial performance and operating results. Economic downturn caused by COVID-19 may be prolonged and extend beyond the timeframe of the pandemic itself. We believe COVID-19’s adverse impact on our business, financial performance and operating results will be significantly driven by a number of factors that we are unable to predict or control, including, for example: the severity and duration of the pandemic; the pandemic's impact on the

U.S. and global economies; the timing, scope and effectiveness of additional governmental responses to the pandemic; the timing and speed of economic recovery, including the availability of a treatment or vaccination for COVID-19; and the negative impact on our fund investors, vendors and other business partners that may indirectly adversely affect us.
See "Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Assets We Manage—Our investments are impacted by various economic conditions and events outside of our control that are difficult to quantify or predict, which may have a significant impact on the valuation of our investments and, therefore, on the investment income we realize and our results of operations and financial condition." in our Annual Report. The impact of COVID-19 may also exacerbate the other risks discussed in our Annual Report.
Economic Conditions. As a global investment firm, we are affected by financial and economic conditions globally. Global and regional economic conditions, including those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, have a substantial impact on our financial condition and results of operations, impacting the values of the investments we make, our ability to exit these investments profitably, our ability to raise capital from investors, and our ability to make new investments. Financial and economic conditions in the United States, European Union, Japan, China, and other major economies are significant contributors to the global economy.

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the U.S. economy experienced a sudden, significant downturn as a result of COVID-19, with key economic indicators of U.S. economic growth showed signs of slowing down in the second quarter of 2019, and thereflecting its adverse impact. The U.S. Federal Reserve, in response to the pandemic, cut its benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points in July 2019.to near zero, and deployed lending programs, bond purchasing programs and other measures to provide liquidity and support to markets and businesses. In the United States, the government's first estimate of real GDP growth was 2.1%contracted 4.8%, on a seasonally adjusted annualized basis, for the quarter ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, compared to 3.1%growth of 2.1% for the quarter ended MarchDecember 31, 2019; the U.S. unemployment rate was 3.7% as of June 30, 2019, down from 3.8%4.4% as of March 31, 2020, up from 3.5% as of December 31, 2019; the U.S. core consumer price index was 2.1% on a year-over-year basis as of June 30, 2019, slightly upMarch 31, 2020, down from 2.0%2.3% on a year-over-year basis as of MarchDecember 31, 2019; and the effective federal funds rate set by the U.S. Federal Reserve was 2.4% as of June 30, 2019, flat compared to 2.4%0.1% as of March 31, 2020, down from 1.6% as of December 31, 2019. The first U.S. real GDP estimate was an advance estimate based on available survey results, and could be revised lower based on more complete data later in May 2020. Similarly, the size and speed of the U.S. unemployment rate due to COVID-19 are likely not fully depicted in the March 31, 2020 data; in April, the unemployment rate rose to 14.7%.
As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the European Union also experienced slower economic growth, with political uncertaintyUnion's economy suffered a sharp downturn due to COVID-19, as several of its largest member states were severely affected by the pandemic. In response to COVID-19, the European Central Bank announced an emergency asset purchase program, collateral easing measures and global trade tensions contributingother temporary measures to support the weakened growth outlook for the year.European economy. In the Euro Area, real GDP growth was 0.2%, on a seasonally adjusted quarter-over-quarter basis, for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to 0.4%contracted 3.8%, on a seasonally adjusted quarter-over-quarter basis, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, compared to a growth of 0.1%, on a seasonally adjusted quarter-over-quarter basis, for the quarter ended December 31, 2019; the Euro Area unemployment rate was 7.5%7.4% as of June 30, 2019, downMarch 31, 2020, up from 7.6%7.3% as of MarchDecember 31, 2019; Euro Area core inflation was 1.1%1.0% on a year-over-year basis as of June 30, 2019, upMarch 31, 2020, down from 0.8%1.3% on a year-over-year basis as of MarchDecember 31, 2019; and the short-term benchmark interest rate set by the European Central Bank was 0.0% as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, unchanged from MarchDecember 31, 2019.
As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, Japan appeared to have avoided the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Asian region, but since then, the reported number of cases started to climb significantly, leading to a declaration of national emergency on April 7, 2020. The Japanese economy continuedcontracted by 7.1% on a seasonally adjusted annualized basis in the three months ended December 2019, and COVID-19 is expected to induce further contraction in Japan's economy. In China, the negative impact of COVID-19 was significant in the quarter ended March 31, 2020, with China's GDP contracting in the quarter and the government expected to lower its recovery, while weakness in exports and industrial production persisted. China'sofficial economic growth in the second quarter of 2019 slowed down considerably, amid the continuing trade dispute with the United States.target for 2020. In Japan, the short-term benchmark interest rate set by the Bank of Japan was -0.10%-0.1% as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, unchanged from MarchDecember 31, 2019; and in China, reported real GDP was 1.6%-9.8%, on a seasonally adjusted quarter-over-quarter basis, for the quarter ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, compared to 1.4%1.5% in the quarter ended MarchDecember 31, 2019.
These and other key issues could have repercussions across regional and global financial markets, which could adversely affect the valuations of our investments. Other key issues include (i) political uncertainty caused by, among other things, populist political parties, and economic nationalist sentiments, anti-government protests and the 2020 U.S. Presidential election, as well as geopolitical uncertainty such as U.S.-China relations, (ii) regulatory changes regarding, for example, taxation, international trade, cross-border investments, immigration, and austerity programs, (iii) increased volatility or downturn in stock and credit markets, (iv) anany unexpected shift in the U.S. Federal Reserve'scentral banks' monetary policies and itstheir impact on the markets, and (v) technological advancements and innovations that may disrupt marketplaces and businesses.businesses, and (vi) further developments regarding COVID-19 as discussed above.

many ways, including by reducing the value or performance of the investments that we manage or by reducing the ability of our funds to raise or deploy capital, each of which could negatively impact our net income and cash flow and adversely affect our financial condition" in our Annual Report.
Equity and Credit Markets. Global equity and credit markets have a substantial effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In general, a climate of reasonable interest rates and high levels of liquidity in the debt and equity capital markets provide a positive environment for us to generate attractive investment returns, which also impacts our ability to generate incentive fees and carried interest. Periods of volatility and dislocation in the capital markets, such as the present, raise substantial risks, but also can present us with opportunities to invest at reduced valuations that position us for future growth and investment returns. Low interest rates related to monetary stimulus and economic stagnation may negatively impact expected returns on all types of investments. Higher interest rates in conjunction with slower growth or weaker currencies in some emerging market economies have caused, and may further cause, the default risk of these countries to increase, and this could impact the operations or value of our investments that operate in these regions. Areas such as Japan, whichthat have ongoing central bank quantitative easing campaigns and comparatively low interest rates relative to the United States could potentially experience further currency volatility and weakness relative to the U.S. dollar.

Many of our investments are in equities, so a change in global equity prices or in market volatility directly impacts the value of our investments and our profitability as well as our ability to realize investment gains and the receptiveness of fund investors to our investment products. For the quarter ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, global equity markets were positive,negative, with the S&P 500 Index up 4.3%down 20% and the MSCI World Index up 4.2%down 21% on a total return basis including dividends.

evidenced by the Chicago Board Options Exchange Market Volatility Index (the "VIX"), a measure of volatility, ended at 15.153.5 as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, increasing from 13.713.8 as of MarchDecember 31, 2019. For a discussion of our valuation methods, see "Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Assets We Manage—Our investments are impacted by various economic conditions that are difficult to quantify or predict, which may have a significant impact on the valuation of our investments and, therefore, on the investment income we realize and our results of operations and financial condition" in our Annual Report and see also "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies—Fair Value Measurements—Level III Valuation Methodologies" in our Annual Report.
Many of our investments are also in non-investment grade credit instruments, and our funds and our portfolio companies also rely on credit financing and the ability to refinance existing debt. Consequently, any decrease in the value of credit instruments that we have invested in or any increase in the cost of credit financing reduces our returns and decreases our net income. In particular due in part to holdings of credit instruments such as CLOs on our balance sheet, the performance of the credit markets has had an amplified impact on our financial results, as we directly bear the full extent of losses from credit instruments on our balance sheet. Credit markets can also impact valuations because a discounted cash flow analysis is generally used as one of the methodologies to ascertain the fair value of our investments that do not have readily observable market prices. In addition, with respect to our credit instruments, tightening credit spreads are generally expected to lead to an increase, and widening credit spreads are generally expected to lead to a decrease, in the value of these credit investments, if not offset by hedging or other factors. In addition, the significant widening of credit spreads is also typically expected to negatively impact equity markets, which in turn would negatively impact our portfolio and us as noted above.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, U.S. investment grade corporate bond spreads (BofA Merrill Lynch US Corporate Index) contractedwidened by 5204 basis points and U.S. high-yield corporate bond spreads (BofAML HY Master II Index) widened by 2517 basis points. The non-investment grade credit indices were updown during the quarter ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, with the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index up 1.7% and the BofAML HY Master IIBAML US High Yield Index up 2.6%both down 13%. During the quarter ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, 10-year government bond yields fell 40125 basis points in the United States, fell 1747 basis points in the United Kingdom, fell 2629 basis points in Germany, rose 17fell 56 basis points in China, and fell 8rose 3 basis pointspoint in Japan.

Foreign Exchange Rates. Foreign exchange rates have a substantial impact on the valuations of our investments that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Currency volatility can also affect our businesses and investments that deal in cross-border trade. The appreciation or depreciation of the U.S. dollar is expected to contribute to a decrease or increase, respectively, in the U.S. dollar value of our non-U.S. investments to the extent unhedged. In addition, an appreciating U.S. dollar would be expected to make the exports of U.S. based companies less competitive, which may lead to a decline in their export revenues, if any, while a depreciating U.S. dollar would be expected to have the opposite effect. Moreover, when selecting investments for our investment funds that are denominated in U.S. dollars, an appreciating U.S. dollar may create opportunities to invest at more attractive U.S. dollar prices in certain countries outside of the United States, while a depreciating U.S. dollar would be expected to have the opposite effect. For our investments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the depreciation in such currencies will generally contribute to the decrease in the valuation of such investments, to the extent unhedged, and adversely affect the U.S. dollar equivalent revenues of portfolio companies with substantial revenues denominated in such currencies, while the appreciation in such currencies would be expected to have the

opposite effect.

For additional information regarding our foreign exchange rate risk, see "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Quantitative"Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk—Exchange Rate Risk" in our Annual Report.

Commodity Markets. Our Private Markets portfolio contains energy real asset investments, and certain of our other Private Markets and Public Markets strategies and products, including private equity, direct lending, special situations and CLOs, also have meaningful investments in the energy sector. The value of these investments is heavily influenced by the price of natural gas and oil. During the quarter ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the long-term3-year forward price of WTI crude oil decreased approximately 2%20%, and the long-term3-year forward price of natural gas decreased approximately 2%0.4%. The long-term3-year forward price of WTI crude oil decreased from approximately $54$52 per barrel to $53$41 per barrel, and the long-term3-year forward price of natural gas decreased from approximately $2.66$2.42 per mcf to $2.62$2.41 per mcf as of MarchDecember 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, respectively. When commodity prices decline or if a decline is not offset by other factors, we would expect the value of our energy real asset investments to be adversely impacted, to the extent unhedged. In addition, because we hold certain energy assets,real asset investments, which had a fair value of $0.7$0.5 billion as of June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 on our balance sheet, these price movements would have an amplified impact on our financial results, to the extent unhedged, as we would directly bear the full extent of such gains or losses. For additional information regarding our energy real assets, see "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies—Fair Value Measurements—Level III Valuation Methodologies—Real Asset Investments" in our Annual Report and see also "Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Assets We Manage—Our funds and our firm through our balance sheet may make a limited number of investments, or investments that are concentrated in certain issuers, geographic regions or asset types, which could negatively affect our performance or the performance of our funds to the extent those concentrated assets perform poorly" in our Annual Report.

Due in large part to the COVID-19 pandemic, oil prices significantly declined after March 31, 2020, with the price of certain short-dated WTI futures contracts dropping below zero in late April. Although certain oil producers are taking measures to decrease output, if demand stays depressed and the shortage of storage capabilities continue, significant volatility in oil prices is expected to continue. While the impact to longer-term prices of crude oil and natural gas has been less pronounced, we expect negative price movements to have a negative impact on the fair value of our energy portfolio, all other things being equal, given those commodity prices are an input in our valuation models. However, we expect the impact of the decline will be mitigated by the existence of our near-term commodity price hedges, which make long-term oil and natural gas prices a more significant driver of the valuation of our energy investments than spot prices. As of March 31, 2020, energy strategies make up approximately 1% of our assets under management, 2% of our total GAAP assets and 3% of our operating assets.

Business Conditions
Our segmentoperating revenues consist of fees, performance income and investment income. Our ability to grow our revenues depends in part on our ability to attract new capital and investors, our successful deployment of capital including from our balance sheet and our ability to realize investments at a profit.

70

Table of Contents


Our ability to attract new capital and investors. Our ability to attract new capital and investors in our funds is driven, in part, by the extent to which they continue to see the alternative asset management industry generally, and our investment products specifically, as an attractive vehicle for capital appreciation or income. Since 2010, we have expanded into strategies such as energy, infrastructure, real estate, growth equity,assets, credit, core, creditimpact and, through hedge fund partnerships, hedge funds. In several of these strategies, our first time funds have begun raising successor funds, and we expect the cost of raising such successor funds to be lower. We have also reached out to new fund investors, including retail and high net worth investors. However, fundraising continues to be competitive. While our Americas Fund XII, Asian Fund III, European Fund V, Real Estate Partners Americas II, and Global Infrastructure Investors III fundsand Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II exceeded the size of their respective predecessor funds, there is no assurance that fundraises for our other flagship private equity funds or for our newer strategies and their successor funds will experience similar success. If we are unable to successfully raise comparably sized or larger funds, our AUM, FPAUM, and associated fees attributable to new capital raised in future periods may be lower than in prior years. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Our inability to raise additional or successor funds (or raise successor funds of a comparable size as our predecessor funds) could have a material adverse impact on our business" in our Annual Report.Report
Our ability to successfully deploy capital. Our ability to maintain and grow our revenue base is dependent upon our ability to successfully deploy the capital available to us and participate in capital markets transactions. Greater competition, high valuations, increased overall cost of credit and other general market conditions may impact our ability to identify and execute attractive investments. Additionally, because we seek to make investments that have an ability to achieve our targeted returns while taking on a reasonable level of risk, we may experience periods of reduced investment activity. We have a long-term investment horizon and the capital deployed in any one quarter may vary significantly from the capital deployed in any other quarter or the quarterly average of capital deployed in any given year. Reduced levels of transaction activity also tends to result in reduced potential future investment gains, lower transaction fees and lower fees for our Capital Markets business line, which may earn fees in the syndication of equity or debt.
Our ability to realize investments. Challenging market and economic conditions may adversely affect our ability to exit and realize value from our investments and result in lower-than-expected returns. Although the equity markets are not the only means by which we exit investments, the strength and liquidity of the U.S. and relevant global equity markets generally, and the initial public offering market specifically, affect the valuation of, and our ability to successfully exit, our equity positions in our private equity portfolio companies in a timely manner. We may also realize investments through strategic sales. When financing is not available or becomes too costly, it may be more difficult to find a buyer that can successfully raise sufficient capital to purchase our investments.

Basis of Accounting
 
We consolidate the financial results of the KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership and their consolidated entities, which include the accounts of our investment management and capital markets companies, the general partners of unconsolidated funds and vehicles, general partners of certain funds that are consolidated and their respective consolidated funds and certain other entities including certain CLOs and CMBS. We refer to CLOs and CMBS as collateralized financing entities ("CFEs").

When an entity is consolidated, we reflect the accounts of the consolidated entity, including its assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, investment income, cash flows and other amounts, on a gross basis. While the consolidation of a consolidated fund or entity does not have an effect on the amounts of Net Income Attributable to KKR or KKR's stockholders' capital that KKR reports, the consolidation does significantly impact the financial statement presentation under GAAP. This is due to the fact that the accounts of the consolidated entities are reflected on a gross basis while the allocable share of those amounts that are attributable to third parties are reflected as single line items. The single line items in which the accounts attributable to third parties are recorded are presented as noncontrolling interests on the consolidated statements of financial condition and net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests on the consolidated statements of operations.
 
For a further discussion of our consolidation policies, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Key Financial Measures Under GAAP
 
Revenues

Fees and Other
 
Fees and other consist primarily of (i) management and incentive fees from providing investment management services to unconsolidated funds, CLOs, other vehicles, and separately managed accounts; (ii) transaction fees earned in connection with successful investment transactions and from capital markets activities; (iii) monitoring fees from providing services to portfolio companies; (iv) expense reimbursements from certain investment funds and portfolio companies; (v) revenue earned by oil and gas-producinggas entities that are consolidated; and (vi) consulting fees earned by consolidated entities that employ non-employee operating consultants.fees. These fees are based on the contractual terms of the governing agreements and are recognized when earned, which coincides with the period during which the related services are performed and in the case of transaction fees, upon closing of the transaction. Monitoring fees may provide for a termination payment following an initial public offering or change of control. These termination payments are recognized in the period when the related transaction closes.

Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss)
Capital allocation-based income (loss) is earned from those arrangements whereby KKR serves as general partner and includes income from KKR's capital interest as well as "carried interest" which entitles KKR to a disproportionate allocation of investment income from investment funds' limited partners.
For a further discussion of our revenue policies, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
Expenses
Compensation and Benefits
Compensation and benefits expense includes (i) cash compensation consisting of salaries, bonuses, and benefits, as well as(ii) equity-based compensation consisting of charges associated with the vesting of equity-based awards and (iii) carry pool allocations, and other performance-based income compensation.allocations. The amounts allocated to the carry pool and other performance-based income compensation are accounted for as compensatory profit-sharing arrangements and recorded as compensation and benefits expenses.
All employees and employees of certain consolidated entities receive a base salary that is paid by KKR or its consolidated entities, and is accounted for as compensation and benefits expense. These employees are also eligible to receive discretionary cash bonuses based on performance, overall profitability, and other matters. While cash bonuses paid to most employees are borne by KKR and certain consolidated entities and result in customary compensation and benefits expense, in the past cash bonuses that are paid to certain employees have been borne by KKR Holdings. These bonuses have historically been funded

74

Table of Contents


with distributions that KKR Holdings receives on KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR Holdings but are not then passed on to holders of unvested units of KKR Holdings. Because employees are not entitled to receive distributions on units that are unvested, any amounts allocated to employees in excess of an employee's vested equity interests are reflected as employee compensation and benefits expense. These compensation charges are currently recorded based on the amount of cash expected to be paid by KKR Holdings. Because KKR makes only fixed quarterly dividends, the distributions made on KKR Group Partnership Units underlying any unvested KKR Holdings units are generally insufficient to fund annual cash bonus compensation to the same extent as in periods prior to the fourth quarter of 2015. In addition, substantially all remaining units in KKR Holdings have been allocated and, while subject to a 5 year vesting period, will become fully vested by 2021, thus decreasing the amount of distributions received by KKR Holdings that are available for annual cash bonus compensation. We, therefore, expect to pay all or substantially all of the cash bonus payments from KKR's cash from operations and the carry pool, although, from time to time, KKR Holdings may contribute to the cash bonus payments in the future. See "Risks"Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—If we cannot retain and motivate our principals and other key personnel and recruit, retain and motivate new principals and other key personnel, our business, results and financial condition could be adversely affected" in our Annual Report regarding the adequacy of such distributions to fund future discretionary cash bonuses.

KKR uses several methods, which are designed to yield comparable results, to allocate carried interest and other performance income compensation.interest. With respect to KKR's investment funds that provide for carried interest, without a preferred return, KKR allocates 40% or 43%, depending on the fund's vintage, of the carried interest receivedcarry it earns from suchthese funds and vehicles to its carry pool for employees and non-employee operating consultants. Beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2016, for investment funds that provide forpool. Upon a reversal of carried interest with a preferred return and have accrued carried interest as of June 30, 2016, KKRincome, the related carry pool allocation, if any, is also includes 40% of the management fees that would have beenreversed. Accordingly, such compensation expense is subject to a management fee refund as performance income compensation. Because of the different ways management fees are refunded in preferred returnboth positive and non-preferred return funds that provide for carried interest, this calculation of 40% of the portion of the management fees subject to refund for funds that have a preferred return is designed to allocate to compensation an amount comparable to the amount that would have been allocated to the carry pool had the fund not had a preferred return. Beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2017, for then-current and future carry generating funds with a preferred return and no or minimal accrued carried interest as of June 30, 2017, KKR allocates 43% of the carried interest to the carry pool instead of 40% of carried interest. For impacted funds, the incremental 3% replaces the allocation of management fee refunds that would have been calculated for those funds and is designed, based on a historical financial analysis of certain investment funds, to allocate an amount for preferred return funds that is comparable to the management fee refunds that would have been allocated as performance income compensation for those funds.negative adjustments. The percentage of carried interest management fee refunds, and incentive fees allocable to the carry pool or as performance income compensation is subject to change from time to time.

General, administrative and other expense consists primarily of professional fees paid to legal advisors, accountants, advisors and consultants, insurance costs, travel and related expenses, communications and information services, depreciation and amortization charges, expenses (including impairment charges) incurred by oil and gas-producinggas entities that are consolidated, costs incurred in connection with pursuing potential investments that do not result in completed transactions ("broken-deal expenses"), and other general operating expenses. A portion of these general administrative and other expenses, in particular broken-deal expenses, are borne by fund investors.
Investment Income (Loss)
Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities
Net gains (losses) from investment activities consist of realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from our investment activities as well as income earned from certain equity method investments. Fluctuations in net gains (losses) from investment activities between reporting periods is driven primarily by changes in the fair value of our investment portfolio as well as the realization of investments. The fair value of, as well as the ability to recognize gains from, our investments is significantly impacted by the global financial markets, which, in turn, affects the net gains (losses) from investment activities recognized in any given period. Upon the disposition of an investment, previously recognized unrealized gains and losses are reversed and an offsetting realized gain or loss is recognized in the current period. Since our investments are carried at fair value, fluctuations between periods could be significant due to changes to the inputs to our valuation process over time. For a further discussion of our fair value measurements and fair value of investments, see "—Critical Accounting Policies—Fair Value Measurements."

Dividend Income
 
Dividend income consists primarily of distributions that we and our consolidated investment funds receive from portfolio companies in which they invest. Dividend income is recognized primarily in connection with (i) dispositions of operations by portfolio companies, (ii) distributions of cash generated from operations from portfolio investments, and (iii) other significant refinancings undertaken by portfolio investments.

Interest Income
 
Interest income consists primarily of interest that is received on our credit instruments in which we and our consolidated funds and other entities invest as well as interest on our cash balances and other investments.
 
Interest Expense
 
Interest expense is incurred from debt issued by KKR, including debt issued by KFN, credit facilities entered into by KKR, debt securities issued by consolidated CFEs, and financing arrangements at our consolidated funds entered into primarily with the objective of managing cash flow. KFN's debt obligations are non-recourse to KKR beyond the assets of KFN. Debt securities issued by consolidated CFEs are supported solely by the investments held at the CFE and are not collateralized by assets of any other KKR entity. Our obligations under financing arrangements at our consolidated funds are generally limited to our pro rata equity interest in such funds. However, in some circumstances, we may provide limited guarantees of the obligations of our general partners in an amount equal to its pro rata equity interest in such funds. Our management companies bear no obligations with respect to financing arrangements at our consolidated funds. We also may provide other kinds of guarantees. See "—Liquidity."

Income Taxes

On July 1, 2018, we converted from a Delaware limited partnership to a Delaware corporation (the "Conversion"). Prior to the Conversion, KKR’s investment income and carried interest generally were not subject to U.S. corporate income taxes. Subsequent to the Conversion, all income earned by KKR is subject to U.S. corporate income taxes, resulting in an overall higher income tax expense (or benefit) in periods subsequent to the Conversion.

KKR & Co. Inc. is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and thus is subject to U.S. federal, state and local corporate income taxes at the entity level on KKR’s share of net taxable income.  In addition, the KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership and certain of theirits subsidiaries operate in the United States as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes and as corporate entities in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions.  These entities, in some cases, are subject to U.S. state or local income taxes or non-U.S. income taxes.

Tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and respective governmental taxing authorities. Significant judgment is required in determining tax expense and in evaluating tax positions including evaluating uncertainties. We review our tax positions quarterly and adjust our tax balances as new information becomes available.
For a further discussion of our income tax policies, and further information about the impact of the Conversion, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and Note 11 "Income Taxes" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests primarily represents the ownership interests that certain third parties hold in entities that are consolidated in the financial statements as well as the ownership interests in our KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership that are held by KKR Holdings. The allocable share of income and expense attributable to these interests is accounted for as net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. Given the consolidation of certain of our investment funds and the significant ownership interests in our KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership held by KKR Holdings, we expect a portion of net income (loss) will continue to be attributed to noncontrolling interests in our business.
For a further discussion of our noncontrolling interests policies, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Key SegmentNon-GAAP and Other Operating and Performance Measures
The key non-GAAP and other operating and performance measures that follow are used by management in making operational and resource deployment decisions as well as assessing the overall performance of KKR's businesses. KKR's segment reporting isThey include certain financial measures that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures, including after-tax distributable earnings, book value, operating assets, operating liabilities, operating revenues, operating expenses and distributable operating earnings, are presented prior to giving effect to the allocation of income (loss) between KKR & Co. Inc. and KKR Holdings L.P. and as such representsrepresent the business in total. In addition, KKR's segment reporting isthese non-GAAP measures are presented without giving effect to the consolidation of the investment funds and CFEs that KKR manages as well as other consolidated entities that are not subsidiaries of KKR & Co. Inc.
We disclose certain financial measures in this report that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP. We believe that providing these performancenon-GAAP measures on a supplemental basis to our GAAP results is helpful to stockholders in assessing the overall performance of KKR's businesses. These financialnon-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for, similaror superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, if available.GAAP. We caution readers that these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the calculations of other investment managers, and as a result, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other investment managers. These non-GAAP measures are presented in this report as KKR's operating results, which were previously referred to as KKR's segment results.
Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, where applicable, are included within Note 14 "Segment Reporting"under "—Reconciliations to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report and under "—Segment Balance Sheet.GAAP Measures."
Adjusted Shares
Adjusted shares are used as a measurerepresents shares of the total common equity ownership of KKR that is held by KKR & Co. Inc. (including equity awards issued under our Equity Incentive Plans, but excluding preferred stock), KKR Holdings, and other holders of securities exchangeable into Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. and represent the fully diluted share countoutstanding under GAAP adjusted to include shares issuable upon exchange of Class A common stock using the if-converted method.all units of KKR Holdings L.P. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides an indication of the total common equity ownership of KKR as if all outstanding KKR Holdings units, equity awards issued under our Equity Incentive Plans and other exchangeable securities had been exchanged for Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. The 6.75% Series A Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred Stock") and 6.50% Series B Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Stock") are not exchangeable for Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc.
Adjusted Shares Eligible for Distribution
Adjusted shares eligible for distribution represents the portion of totalproviding adjusted shares that are eligible to receive a dividend. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides insight into the calculation of amounts available for distribution as dividends on a per adjusted share basis. Weighted average adjusted shares eligible for distribution is used in the calculation of after-tax distributable earnings per adjusted share and adjusted shares is used in the calculation of book value per adjusted share.
After-tax Distributable Earnings
After-tax distributable earnings is a non-GAAP performance measure of KKR’s earnings on a segment basis excluding mark-to-market gains (losses). Starting with after interest expense, preferred dividends, noncontrolling interests and income taxes paid. It is used by management to assess the second quarter of 2018, it is defined as the amount of net realized earnings of KKR for a given reporting period, after deducting equity-based compensation. KKR revisedcompensation under the definitionEquity Incentive Plans and adjusting to exclude the impact of after-tax distributable earnings starting in the second quarter of 2018, because it reflects how the chief operating decision makers allocate resources and assess performance of KKR’s business.nonrecurring items, if any. KKR believes that after-tax distributable earnings is useful to stockholders as it aligns KKR’s net realization performance with the manner in which KKR receives its revenues and determines the compensation of its employees. After-tax distributable earnings does not represent and is not used to calculate actual dividends under KKR’s dividend policy. Historically equity-based compensation expense relating to our Equity Incentive Plans was not reflected in our calculation of after-tax distributable earnings. Under KKR’s segment presentation, equity-basedEquity-based compensation expense is included in after-tax distributable earnings as a component of compensation expense in order to reflect the dilutive nature of these non-cash

For comparability, after-taxIncome taxes paid represents the implied amount of income taxes that would be paid assuming that all pre-tax distributable earnings were allocated to KKR & Co. Inc., which would occur following an exchange of all KKR Holdings units for shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. Income taxes paid also includes amounts paid pursuant to the comparable prior periods have been calculated using this definition.tax receivable agreement.
Assets Under Management ("AUM")
Assets under management represent the assets managed or advised by KKR from which KKR is entitled to receive fees or a carried interest (either currently or upon deployment of capital), general partner capital, and assets managed or advised by our strategic BDC partnership and the hedge fund and other managers in which KKR holds a minorityan ownership interest. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the capital raising activities of KKR and its hedge fund and other managers and the overall activity in their investment funds and other managed 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; (ii) uncalled capital commitments

from these funds, including uncalled capital commitments from which KKR is currently not earning management fees or carried interest; (iii) the fair value of investments in KKR's co-investment vehicles; (iv) the par value of outstanding CLOs (excluding CLOs wholly-owned by KKR); (v) KKR's pro rata portion of the AUM of hedge fund and other managers in which KKR holds a minorityan ownership interest; (vi) all AUM of the strategic BDC partnership with FS Investments; and (vii) the fair value of other assets managed by KKR. The pro rata portion of the AUM of hedge fund and other managers is calculated based on KKR’s percentage ownership interest in such entities multiplied by such entity’s respective AUM. KKR's definition of AUM is not based on any definition of AUM that may be set forth in the agreements governing the investment funds, vehicles or accounts that it manages or calculated pursuant to any regulatory definitions.
Book Value
Book value is a non-GAAP performance measure of the net assets of KKR’s reportable segmentKKR and is used by management primarily in assessing the unrealized value of KKR’s investmentsoperating assets after deducting for operating liabilities, noncontrolling interests and other assets, including carried interest.preferred stock. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the net assets and liabilities of KKR excluding thethose net assets and liabilities that are allocated to noncontrolling interest holders and to the holders of the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock. FollowingKKR's book value includes the Conversion, KKR's segment balance sheet reflectsnet impact of KKR's tax assets and liabilities as prepared under GAAP.
Capital Invested
Capital invested is the aggregate amount of capital invested by (i) KKR’s investment funds, (ii) KKR's Principal Activities business line as a co-investment, if any, alongside KKR’s investment funds, and (iii) KKR's Principal Activities business line in connection with a syndication transaction conducted by KKR's Capital Markets business line, if any. Capital invested is used as a measure of investment activity at KKR during a given period. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides a measure of capital deployment across KKR’s business lines. Capital invested includes investments made using investment financing arrangements like credit facilities, as applicable.  Capital invested excludes (i) investments in certain leveraged credit strategies, (ii) capital invested by KKR’s Principal Activities business line that is not a co-investment alongside KKR’s investment funds, and (iii) capital invested by KKR’s Principal Activities business line that is not invested in connection with a syndication transaction by KKR’s Capital Markets business line. Capital syndicated by KKR's Capital Markets business line to third parties other than KKR’s investment funds or Principal Activities business line is not included in capital invested.  See also syndicated capital.
Distributable Operating Earnings
Distributable operating earnings is a non-GAAP performance measure that represents after-tax distributable earnings before interest expense, preferred dividends, income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests and income taxes paid. We believe distributable operating earnings is useful to stockholders as it provides a supplemental measure of our operating performance without taking into account items that we do not believe relate directly to KKR's operations.
Fee Paying AUM ("FPAUM")
Fee paying AUM represents only the AUM from which KKR is entitled to receive management fees. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the capital base upon which KKR earns management fees. FPAUM is the sum of all of the individual fee bases that are used to calculate KKR's and its hedge fund and BDC partnership management fees and differs from AUM in the following respects: (i) assets and commitments from which KKR is not entitled to receive a management fee are excluded (e.g., assets and commitments with respect to which it is entitled to receive only carried interest or is otherwise not currently entitled to receive a management fee) and (ii) certain assets, primarily

Fee Related Earnings ("FRE")
Fee related earnings is a non-GAAP supplemental performance measure of earnings of KKR on a segment basis before performance income and investment income. KKR believes this measure may be useful to stockholders as it providesmay provide additional insight into the profitability of KKR’s fee generating management companies and capital markets businesses. Starting with the second quarter of 2018, feeFee related earnings is calculated as KKR’s total Fees and Other, Net, multiplied by KKR’s segmentdistributable operating margin. For purposes of the fee related earnings calculation, segmentdistributable operating margin is calculated as Segment Operating Earnings,distributable operating earnings, before equity-based compensation, divided by total segmentoperating revenues.

It does not include (i) capital invested in such transactions by KKR investment funds and carry-yielding co-investment vehicles, which is instead reported in capital invested, (ii) debt capital that is arranged as part of the acquisition financing of transactions originated by KKR investment funds, and (iii) debt capital that is either underwritten or arranged on a best efforts basis. Syndicated capital is used as a measure of investment activity for KKR during a given period, and we believe that this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into levels of syndication activity in KKR's Capital Markets business line and across KKR's investment platform.

Uncalled Commitments
Uncalled commitments are used as a measureis the aggregate amount of 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.

Total Fees and Other for the three months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 increased compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 primarily as a result of an increase in transactionmanagement fees and management fees, which werea decrease in fee credits, partially offset by a decrease in transaction fees.

For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our transaction fees during the period, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results—Operating Revenues."

The increase in management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our European Fund V and Global Impact Fund as a result of new capital raised, and an increase relating to Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II, which entered its investment period in fee credits.the fourth quarter of 2019. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund IV and 2006 Fund.

Fee credits increased overalldecreased compared to the prior period as a net result of a higherlower level of transaction fees in our Private Markets and Public Markets business line.lines. Fee credits owed to consolidated investment funds are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. Transaction fees earned from KKR portfolio companies are not eliminated upon consolidation because those fees are earned from companies which are not consolidated. Accordingly, certain transaction fees are reflected in revenues without a corresponding fee credit.

For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our transaction fees during the period, see "—Segment Analysis—Segment Results—Segment Revenues."

The increase in management fees during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the prior period was primarily due to new management fees earned from our Global Infrastructure Investors III Fund, European Fund V and Global Impact Fund. Each of these funds entered their investment periods subsequent to the second quarter of 2018.

The increasedecrease in carried interest and general partner capital interest during the three months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was due primarily to a higher level of net appreciationdepreciation in the value of our private equityinvestment portfolio as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019 primarily resulting from the impacts of COVID-19 on the economic outlook and financial markets.

Compensation and Benefits Expenses

The increasedecrease in compensation and benefits expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was primarily due to (i) a higher levelreversal of previously recognized accrued carried interest compensation resulting from a higher level of appreciationdepreciation in the value of our private equityinvestment portfolio and (ii) an increase in cash compensation and benefits. This increase was partially offset by lower equity-based compensation charges resulting from a decrease in the weighted average number of unvested shares outstanding.

Income (Loss) Before Taxes
 
The decrease in income (loss)loss before taxes during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2020 was due primarily to a higher level of compensation and benefits and interest expenses and a lower level of net gainslosses from investment activities, and to a lesser extent, a reversal of previously recognized carried interest.

Subsequent to the Conversion, all income earned by KKR & Co.

In the Conversion.current period, a deferred tax benefit was generated primarily by the net unrealized losses on our investment portfolio. Our effective tax rate under GAAP for the three months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 was 10.83%7.9%.

Total Fees and Other for the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 primarily as a result of an increase in transaction fees, partially offset by a corresponding increase in associated fee credits, and increases in management fees and expense reimbursements.

Transaction fees increased overall primarily from a higher level of transaction fees earned in our Private Markets business line, and to a lesser extent, our Public Markets business line. Partially offsetting these increases were increases in fee credits. Fee credits owed to consolidated investment funds are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. Transaction fees earned from KKR portfolio companies are not eliminated upon consolidation because those fees are earned from companies which are not consolidated. Accordingly, certain transaction fees are reflected in revenues without a corresponding fee credit.

For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our transaction fees during the period, see "—Segment Analysis—Segment Results—Segment Revenues."

The increase in management fees during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the prior period was due primarily to management fees earned from our Global Infrastructure Investors III Fund and European Fund V. Each of these funds entered their investment periods subsequent to the second quarter of 2018. Partially offsetting this increase was a decrease in management fees and incentive fees related to our BDC platform as a result of the FS Investments Transaction that closed in the second quarter of 2018. KKR reports its investment in FS/KKR Advisor using the equity method of accounting, and as such, KKR reflects its allocation of the net income of this entity as investment income. Accordingly, the management fees and incentive fees of the BDCs that had been reported in fees and other revenues prior to the closing of the FS Investments Transaction are now reflected on a net basis as part of our allocation of the net income of this entity within investment income. This decreased our reported gross management fees and incentive fees when compared to the prior period.

The increase in carried interest and general partner capital interest during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the prior period was due primarily to a higher level of net appreciation in the value of our private equity investment portfolio as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Compensation and Benefits Expenses

The increase in compensation and benefits expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the prior period was primarily due to an increase in carried interest compensation resulting from a higher level of appreciation in the

86

Table of Contents


value of our private equity portfolio as compared to the prior period and to a lesser extent higher cash compensation. This increase was partially offset by lower equity-based compensation charges resulting from a decrease in the weighted average number of unvested shares outstanding.

General, Administrative and Other Expenses

The increase in general, administrative and other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily due to (i) a higher level of expenses that are creditable to our investment funds in the current period, in particular a higher level of broken-deal expenses, and (ii) a higher level of expenses related to capital raising efforts. These increases were partially offset by a lower level of professional fees in the current period as a result of higher professional fees incurred in the prior period in connection with the Conversion.

Interest Income
The increase in interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily due to a higher level of interest earned related to the closing of five additional consolidated CLOs subsequent to June 30, 2018 as well as increases in interest income earned from our consolidated credit funds as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest income, see "—Segment Analysis—Segment Results—Segment Revenues—Principal Activities Revenues—Realized Investment Income."

Interest Expense
The increase in interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily due to the impact of the closing of five additional consolidated CLOs subsequent to June 30, 2018. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in interest expense incurred as a result of the sale of KKR's beneficial interest in four consolidated CMBS vehicles held by KREF that resulted in the deconsolidation of such vehicles subsequent to June 30, 2018.

Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 primarily as a result of the Conversion. Prior to the Conversion, KKR & Co. L.P.'s investment income and carried interest generally were not subject to U.S. corporate income taxes. Subsequent to the Conversion, all income earned by KKR & Co. Inc. is subject to U.S. corporate income taxes, which has resulted in, and we believe will continue to result in, an overall higher income tax expense when compared to periods prior to the Conversion. Our effective tax rate under GAAP for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was 10.02%. For a discussion of factors that impacted KKR's tax provision, see Note 11 "Income Taxes" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests for the six months ended June 30, 2019 relates primarily to net income attributable to KKR Holdings representing its ownership interests in the KKR Group Partnerships as well as third-party limited partner interests in those investment funds that we consolidate. The increase from the prior period is due primarily to higher amounts attributed to KKR Holdings in connection with a higher level of income recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the prior period as well as a higher level of income recorded by certain consolidated fund entities that is attributable to third party limited partners. This increase was partially offset by a reduction in KKR Holdings' ownership percentage in the KKR Group Partnerships as compared to the prior period.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc.
The increase in net income (loss) attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily due to a higher level of capital allocation-based income and net gains from investment activities as compared to the prior period, partially offset by an increase in income attributable to noncontrolling interests, and to a lesser extent, increased compensation and benefits and income tax expense in the current period as compared to the prior period.

Fees and Other, Net
 
The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 was primarily due to an increase in transactionmanagement fees and monitoring fees, partially offset by a correspondingdecrease in transaction fees, net of associated fee credits.

The increase in fee credits,management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our European Fund V and Global Impact Fund as a result of new capital raised, and an increase relating to Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II which entered its investment period in the fourth quarter of 2019. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees.fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund IV and 2006 Fund.

Recurring monitoring fees increased $5.5 million, which was primarily the result of an increase in the number of monitoring fees earned. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had 57 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.5 million compared with 56 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we received a termination payment of $2.7 million in connection with the initial public offering of Calisen PLC (LSE: CLSN LN). There were no termination payments for the three months ended March 31, 2019. These termination payments may occur in the future; however, they are infrequent in nature and are generally correlated with the initial public offering and other realization activity in our private equity portfolio, and they are expected to continue to be smaller in size and number compared to prior periods.

The increasedecrease in transaction fees was primarily attributable to an increasea decrease in the size and number of transaction fee-generating investments.fees earned. During the three months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, there were 2111 transaction fee-generating investments that paid an average fee of $6.5$1.5 million compared to 715 transaction fee-generating investments that paid an average fee of $6.9$6.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019. For the three months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, approximately 38%79% of these transaction fees were paid by companies located in North America, 12% were paid from companies in the Asia-Pacific region, and 9% of these transaction fees were paid from companies located in Europe, 36% were paid from companies in the Asia-Pacific region and 26% were paid by companies located in North America.Europe. Transaction fees vary by investment based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are transaction size, the particular agreements as to the amount of the fees, the complexity of the transaction, and KKR's role in the transaction. Additionally, transaction fees are generally not earned with respect to energy and real estate investments. The increasedecrease in fee credits is due primarily to a higherlower level of transaction fees which are shared with fund investors.

The increase in management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our Global Infrastructure Investors III Fund and European Fund V. Both of these funds entered their investment periods subsequent to the second quarter of 2018. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our North America Fund XI, European Fund III, and 2006 Fund.

The decrease in transaction fees was primarily attributable to a decrease in the average size of transaction fee-generating investmentsfees earned during the period. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, there were 11 transaction fee generating investments that paid an average fee of $1.9 million, compared to 11 transaction fee generating investments that paid an average fee of $2.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Transaction fees increased due primarilyremained relatively flat for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to an increase in both the size and number ofthree months ended March 31, 2019. Overall, we completed 43 capital markets transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, of which 3 represented equity offerings and 40 represented debt offerings, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. Overall, we completed 62 capital markets41 transactions for the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2019, of which 96 represented equity offerings and 53 represented debt offerings, as compared to 52 transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2018, of which 7 represented equity offerings and 4535 represented debt offerings. We earned fees in connection with underwriting, syndication and other capital markets services. While each of the capital markets transactions that we undertake in this business line is separately negotiated, our fee rates are generally higher with respect to underwriting or syndicating equity offerings than with respect to debt offerings, and the amount of fees that we earn for similar transactions generally correlates with overall transaction sizes. Our capital markets fees are generated in connection with our Private Markets and Public Markets business lines as well as from third-party companies. For the three months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, approximately 12%49% of our transaction fees were earned from unaffiliated third parties as compared to approximately 17%56% for the three months ended June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019. Our transaction fees are comprised of fees earned from North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region. For the three months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, approximately 73%29% of our transaction fees were generated outside of North America as compared to approximately 33%30% for the three months ended June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019. Our Capital Markets business line is dependent on the overall capital markets environment, which is influenced by equity prices, credit spreads, and volatility. Our Capital Markets business line does not generate management or monitoring fees.

Realized Investment IncomeUncalled Commitments
Uncalled commitments is the aggregate amount of 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. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the amount of capital that is available to KKR’s investment funds to make future investments. Uncalled commitments are not reduced for investments completed using fund-level investment financing arrangements.

Segment Expenses
Compensation and Benefits
The decreaseOther for the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2020 increased compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily as a result of an increase in management fees and a decrease in fee credits, partially offset by a decrease in transaction fees.

For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our transaction fees during the period, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results—Operating Revenues."

The increase in management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our European Fund V and Global Impact Fund as a result of new capital raised, and an increase relating to Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II, which entered its investment period in the fourth quarter of 2019. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund IV and 2006 Fund.

Fee credits decreased compared to the prior period as a net result of a lower level of transaction fees in our Private Markets and Public Markets business lines. Fee credits owed to consolidated investment funds are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. Transaction fees earned from KKR portfolio companies are not eliminated upon consolidation because those fees are earned from companies which are not consolidated. Accordingly, certain transaction fees are reflected in revenues without a corresponding fee credit.

The decrease in carried interest and general partner capital interest during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was due primarily to lowernet depreciation in the value of our investment portfolio as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily resulting from the impacts of COVID-19 on the economic outlook and financial markets.

Compensation and Benefits Expenses

The decrease in compensation recordedand benefits expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was primarily due to (i) a reversal of previously recognized accrued carried interest compensation resulting from a depreciation in connection with lower total segment revenuesthe value of our investment portfolio and (ii) lower equity-based compensation charges resulting from a decrease in the weighted average number of unvested shares outstanding.outstanding, partially offset by an increase in cash compensation and benefits.

General, Administrative and Other Expenses

The decrease in general, administrative and other expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was primarily due to (i) a lower level of expenses reimbursable by investment funds and (ii) a decrease in the expenses incurred by oil and gas entities that are consolidated.

Interest Income
The decrease in interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to a lower level of interest income earned from our consolidated special situations funds. This decrease was partially offset by (i) the impact of closing four additional consolidated CLOs subsequent to March 31, 2019 and (ii) an increase in interest income from our consolidated direct lending funds, primarily related to an increase in the amount of capital deployed. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest income, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results—Operating Revenues—Principal Activities Revenues—Realized Investment Income."

Interest Expense
The increase in interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to the impact of (i) the issuance of senior notes subsequent to March 31, 2019, (ii) the impact of the closing of four additional consolidated CLOs subsequent to March 31, 2019, and (iii) increased borrowings from consolidated asset backed financing vehicles.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net income tax benefit was $360.7 million compared to a net income tax expense of $167.6 million for the prior period.

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (GAAP Basis)
The accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows include the cash flows of our consolidated entities which include certain consolidated investment funds and CFEs notwithstanding the fact that we may hold only a minority economic interest in those funds and CFEs.

The assets of our consolidated funds and CFEs, on a gross basis, can be substantially larger than the assets of our business and, accordingly, could have a substantial effect on the cash flows reflected in our consolidated statements of cash flows. The primary cash flow activities of our consolidated funds and CFEs involve: (i) capital contributions from fund investors; (ii) using the capital of fund investors to make investments; (iii) financing certain investments with indebtedness; (iv) generating cash flows through the realization of investments; and (v) distributing cash flows from the realization of investments to fund investors. Because our consolidated funds and CFEs are treated as investment companies for accounting purposes, certain of these cash flow amounts are included in our cash flows from operations.

Net Cash Provided (Used) by Operating Activities
Our net cash provided (used) by operating activities was $(1.4) billion and $0.2 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These amounts primarily included: (i) proceeds from investments net of investments purchased of $(1.3) billion and $0.3 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (ii) net realized gains (losses) on investments of $63.4 million and $129.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (iii) change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments of (4.0) billion and $1.1 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; and (iv) capital allocation-based income (loss) of (1.4) billion and $0.8 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Fees and Other, Net
The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 as compared to the prior period isthree months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to an increase in management fees and monitoring fees, partially offset by a higher leveldecrease in transaction fees, net of expenses that are creditableassociated fee credits.

The increase in management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our investment funds, in particular a higher level of broken-deal expenses, as wellEuropean Fund V and Global Impact Fund as a higher levelresult of professionalnew capital raised, and an increase relating to Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II which entered its investment period in the fourth quarter of 2019. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund IV and other administrative costs2006 Fund.

Recurring monitoring fees increased $5.5 million, which was primarily the result of an increase in the number of monitoring fees earned. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had 57 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.5 million compared with 56 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we received a termination payment of $2.7 million in connection with the growthinitial public offering of Calisen PLC (LSE: CLSN LN). There were no termination payments for the firm. three months ended March 31, 2019. These termination payments may occur in the future; however, they are infrequent in nature and are generally correlated with the initial public offering and other realization activity in our private equity portfolio, and they are expected to continue to be smaller in size and number compared to prior periods.

The leveldecrease in transaction fees was primarily attributable to a decrease in the size and number of broken-deal expenses cantransaction fees earned. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, there were 11 transaction fee-generating investments that paid an average fee of $1.5 million compared to 15 transaction fee-generating investments that paid an average fee of $6.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, approximately 79% of these transaction fees were paid by companies located in North America, 12% were paid from companies in the Asia-Pacific region, and 9% of these transaction fees were paid from companies located in Europe. Transaction fees vary significantly period to periodby investment based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are transaction size, the numberparticular agreements as to the amount of potential investments being pursued for our investment funds, the size andfees, the complexity of investments being pursuedthe transaction, and KKR's role in the number of investment funds currentlytransaction. Additionally, transaction fees are generally not earned with respect to energy and real estate investments. The decrease in their investment period.

Interest Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, interest expense relates primarily to the senior notes outstanding for KKR and KFN. The increase in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the prior periodfee credits is due primarily to the issuancea lower level of Euro denominated senior notes in the second quarter of 2019.

Income Taxes Paid
The increase in income taxes paid is primarily due to a higher level of income that is subject to corporate taxes following the Conversion. Prior to the Conversion, KKR's investment income and carried interest generally were not subject to U.S. corporate income taxes. Subsequent to the Conversion, all income earned by KKR is subject to U.S. corporate income taxes which has resulted in, and we believe will continue to result in, an overall higher income taxes paid when compared to periods prior to the Conversion. As a result of the Conversion, KKR obtained a partial step-up in the tax basis of certain assets that will be recovered as those assets are sold or the basis is amortized. This generally results in a lower level of taxable gains upon realization of carried interest and investment income for those assets that existed on the date of the Conversion. Over time as these assets with higher tax bases are realized, we expect that our income taxes paid and segment effective tax rate will increase. The pace of such increase is not currently known and is dependent on a variety of factors including the pace at which the assets with higher tax basis are realized and the mix of all assets realized in any given period. Therefore, we cannot predict what the increase, if any, in income taxes paid will be quarter-over-quarter or year-over-year.
After-tax Distributable Earnings
The decrease in after-tax distributable earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the prior period was due primarily to a lower level of realized performance and investment income and a higher level of other operating expenses and income taxes paid. These movements were partially offset by an increase in transaction fees and management fees in the current period compared to the prior period.

We earned fees in connection with underwriting, syndication and other capital markets services. While each of the capital markets transactions that we undertake in this business line is separately negotiated, our fee rates are generally higher with respect to underwriting or syndicating equity offerings than with respect to debt offerings, and the amount of fees that we earn for similar transactions generally correlates with overall transaction sizes. Our capital markets fees are generated in connection with our Private Markets portfolio was driven primarily by net gains of $0.8 billion in our Asian Fund III, $0.5 billion in both European Fund IV and North American Fund XI, $0.4 billion in Asian Fund II, and $0.3 billion in our core investment vehicles.

Our transaction fees are comprised of an 8.8% increase infees earned from North America, Europe, and the value of various publicly held or publicly indexed investments and a 5.3% increase in value of our privately held investments.

The most significant increases in the value of various publicly held or publicly indexed investments were increases in Trainline PLC, Gardner Denver Holdings, Inc., and BrightView Holdings Inc. (NYSE: BV). These increases were partially offset by decreases in the value of various publicly held investments, the most significant of which were decreases in Focus Financial Partners, LLC (NASDAQ: FOCS), PRA Health Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRAH), and Bharti Infratel Limited (BSE: 534816).

The most significant increases in value of our privately held investments related to KCF Technologies Co. Ltd.

Certain investments included in our AUM are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Those investments expose our AUM to the risk that the value of the investments will be affected by changes in exchange rates between the currency in which the investments are denominated and the currency in which the investments are made. We generally seek to reduce these risks by employing hedging techniques in connection with certain investments, including using foreign currency options and foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce exposure to changes in exchange rates when a meaningful amount of capital has been invested in currencies other than the currencies in which the investments are denominated. We do not, however, hedge our currency exposure in all currencies or for all investments. See "—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk—Exchange Rate Risk" and "Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Assets We Manage—We make investments in companies that are based outside of the United States, which may expose us to additional risks not typically associated with investing in companies that are based in the United States" in our Annual Report.2019:

The increases due to new capital raised were related to multiple strategies, most notably $1.7 billion in our alternative credit strategies, $1.0 billion in CLOs, and $0.9 in other leveraged credit strategies. Partially offsetting these increases were redemptions and distributions from certain investment vehicles across multiple strategies, including our hedge fund partnerships, BDCs, and certain leveraged credit strategies. The increase in value was primarily driven by increases at our various leveraged credit strategies, hedge fund partnerships, and various alternative credit strategies.

FPAUM in our Private Markets business line was $73.3 billion at June 30, 2019, an increase of $1.7 billion, compared to $71.6 billion at March 31, 2019.

The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised of $0.6 billion in European Fund V, and $0.3 billion in each of Energy Income and Growth Fund II and Asia Real Estate Partners. In addition, capital invested of $0.5 billion in our core investment vehicles and $0.3 billion in Asian Fund II contributed to a higher level of FPAUM. Both core investment vehicles and Asian Fund II management fees are based on invested capital. These increases were partially offset by distributions relating to realizations of $0.3 billion in our Asian Fund II and $0.1 billion in each of our European Fund IV and North America Fund XI.

Uncalled capital commitments from Private Markets investment funds from which KKR is currently not earning management fees amounted to approximately $10.6 billion at June 30, 2019, which includes capital commitments reserved for follow-on investments for funds that have completed their investment periods. This capital will generally begin to earn management fees upon deployment of the capital or upon the commencement of the fund's investment period. The average annual management fee rate associated with this capital is approximately 1.0%. We will not begin earning fees on this capital until it is deployed or the related investment period commences, neither of which is guaranteed.  If and when such management fees are earned, which will occur over an extended period of time, a portion of existing FPAUM may cease paying fees or pay lower fees, thus offsetting a portion of any new management fees earned.

The net increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised in our alternative credit strategies, partially offset by capital invested across various alternative credit strategies.

Capital Invested and Syndicated Capital
Private Markets Capital Invested
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, Private Markets had $4.0 billion of capital invested as compared to $2.6 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was driven primarily by a $1.3 billion increase in capital invested in our private equity strategies (including core investments and growth equity). Generally, the portfolio companies acquired through our private equity funds have higher transaction values and result in higher capital invested relative to transactions in our real assets funds. The number of large private equity investments made in any quarter is volatile and consequently, a significant amount of capital invested in one quarter or a few quarters maythat is available to KKR’s investment funds to make future investments. Uncalled commitments are not be indicative of a similar level of capital deployment in future quarters. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, 46% of capital deployed in private equity, which includes core and growth equityreduced for investments was in transactions in Europe, 42% was in the Asia-Pacific region, and 12% was in North America.

Public Markets Capital Invested
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, Public Markets had $1.8 billion of capital invested as compared to $2.0 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2018. This was primarily due to a lower level of capital deployed in our direct lending strategy, offset by a higher level of capital deployed in our private opportunistic credit and revolving credit strategies.
Capital Markets Syndicated Capital
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, Capital Markets syndicated $1.6 billion of capital as compared to $0.2 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily due to an increase in both the size and number of syndication transactions in the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. Overall, we completed ten syndication transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to five syndications for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

 $(2,188,985)

Total Fees and Other for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily as a result of an increase in management fees and a decrease in fee credits, partially offset by a decrease in transaction fees.

For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our transaction fees during the period, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results—Operating Revenues."

The increase in management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our European Fund V and Global Impact Fund as a result of new capital raised, and an increase relating to Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II, which entered its investment period in the fourth quarter of 2019. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund IV and 2006 Fund.

Fee credits decreased compared to the prior period as a net result of a lower level of transaction fees in our Private Markets and Public Markets business lines. Fee credits owed to consolidated investment funds are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. Transaction fees earned from KKR portfolio companies are not eliminated upon consolidation because those fees are earned from companies which are not consolidated. Accordingly, certain transaction fees are reflected in revenues without a corresponding fee credit.

The decrease in carried interest and general partner capital interest during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was due primarily to net depreciation in the value of our investment portfolio as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily resulting from the impacts of COVID-19 on the economic outlook and financial markets.

Compensation and Benefits Expenses

The decrease in compensation and benefits expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was primarily due to (i) a reversal of previously recognized accrued carried interest compensation resulting from a depreciation in the value of our investment portfolio and (ii) lower equity-based compensation charges resulting from a decrease in the weighted average number of unvested shares outstanding, partially offset by an increase in cash compensation and benefits.

Table of Contents



General, Administrative and Other Expenses

The decrease in general, administrative and other expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was primarily due to (i) a lower level of expenses reimbursable by investment funds and (ii) a decrease in the expenses incurred by oil and gas entities that are consolidated.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net realized gains related primarily to realized gains on (i) the sale of real estate investments held through certain consolidated entities and (ii) the settlement of foreign currency derivatives in our consolidated credit funds, partially offset by realized losses primarily on (i) realization on assets held through our consolidated credit funds and (ii) realization of certain investments held through consolidated CLOs.
Unrealized Losses from Investment Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, unrealized losses were driven primarily by (i) mark-to-market losses in our private equity investments held by KKR and certain consolidated entities, the most significant of which was Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ: FISV) and (ii) mark-to-market losses in our credit investments held through certain consolidated entities.
Unrealized Gains from Investment Activities
Partially offsetting the unrealized losses above were unrealized gains relating to (i) mark-to-market gains in portfolio companies in our healthcare strategies, the most significant of which was Blue Sprig Pediatrics Inc. (health care sector), (ii) mark-to-market gains in a portfolio company in our core investment strategy, Exact Group B.V. (technology sector), and (iii) mark-to-market gains on some real estate investments held through certain consolidated entities.

Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019
The net gains from investment activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were comprised of net realized gains of $129.8 million and net unrealized gains of $1,074.1 million.
Realized Gains and Losses from Investment Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, net realized gains related primarily to realized gains on (i) the final sale of our investment in Sedgwick Claims Management Services, Inc. (financial services sector), (ii) the sale of real estate investments held through certain consolidated entities, and (iii) the sale of assets in our consolidated special situations funds.
Unrealized Gains from Investment Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, unrealized gains were driven primarily by (i) mark-to-market gains on our investment in First Data Corporation (renamed Fiserv, Inc. in connection with the merger transaction with Fiserv, Inc.) which is held as a co-investment by KKR, (ii) mark-to-market gains in portfolio companies in our core investment strategy, the most significant of which were PetVet Care Centers, LLC (health care sector), Heartland Dental, LLC (health care sector), and The Bay Clubs Company, LLC (hotels/leisure sector), and (iii) mark to market gains on our growth equity investments held by KKR and certain consolidated entities. Certain of our investment funds also hold an investment in First Data Corporation; these funds are not consolidated and as such, unrealized gains and losses relating to these funds' investments are not reflected in net gains (losses) from investment activities.
Unrealized Losses from Investment Activities
Partially offsetting the unrealized gains above were unrealized losses relating to (i) mark-to-market losses on alternative credit assets held in our consolidated special situations funds and our investment in Mr. Cooper Group Inc. (NASDAQ: COOP) and (ii) the reversal of previously recognized unrealized gains relating to the realization activity described above
For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's realized investment income, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results."
Dividend Income
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the most significant dividends received included $80.9 million from our consolidated real estate funds and $62.5 million from our investment in Fiserv, Inc. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the most significant dividends received included $14.7 million from our consolidated real estate funds and real estate investments held directly by KKR, $4.5 million from our consolidated special situations funds and $2.4 million from our consolidated energy funds. Significant dividends from portfolio companies and consolidated funds are generally not recurring quarterly dividends, and while they may occur in the future, their size and frequency are variable. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's dividend income, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAPOperating Results—Operating Revenues—Principal Activities Revenues—Realized Investment Income."

Interest Income
The decrease in interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to a lower level of interest income earned from our consolidated special situations funds. This decrease was partially offset by (i) the impact of closing four additional consolidated CLOs subsequent to March 31, 2019 and (ii) an increase in interest income from our consolidated direct lending funds, primarily related to an increase in the amount of capital deployed. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest income, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results—Operating Revenues—Principal Activities Revenues—Realized Investment Income."

Interest Expense
The increase in interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to the impact of (i) the issuance of senior notes subsequent to March 31, 2019, (ii) the impact of the closing of four additional consolidated CLOs subsequent to March 31, 2019, and (iii) increased borrowings from consolidated asset backed financing vehicles. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest expense, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results—Operating Expenses—Interest Expense."

Income (Loss) Before Taxes
The loss before taxes during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was due primarily to net losses from investment activities, and to a lesser extent, a reversal of previously recognized carried interest. These losses were partially offset by a reversal of previously recognized carried interest compensation and an increase in dividend income, in each case as described above.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net income tax benefit was $360.7 million compared to a net income tax expense of $167.6 million for the prior period. In the current period, a deferred tax benefit was generated primarily by the net unrealized losses on our investment portfolio. Our effective tax rate under GAAP for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 7.9%. For a discussion of factors that impacted KKR's tax provision, see Note 11 "Income Taxes" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended March 31, 2020 relates primarily to net losses attributable to KKR Holdings representing its ownership interests in KKR Group Partnership as well as third-party limited partner interests in those investment funds that we consolidate. The net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was due primarily to net losses from investment activities recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as described above.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc.
The net loss attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily due to net losses from investment activities, and to a lesser extent, a reversal of previously recognized carried interest. These losses were partially offset by (i) a reversal of previously recognized carried interest compensation, (ii) an income tax benefit recognized primarily due to the impact of the net depreciation in our investment portfolio and (iii) a higher level of dividend income as compared to the prior period.

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (GAAP Basis)
The accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows include the cash flows of our consolidated entities which include certain consolidated investment funds and CFEs notwithstanding the fact that we may hold only a minority economic interest in those funds and CFEs.

The assets of our consolidated funds and CFEs, on a gross basis, can be substantially larger than the assets of our business and, accordingly, could have a substantial effect on the cash flows reflected in our consolidated statements of cash flows. The primary cash flow activities of our consolidated funds and CFEs involve: (i) capital contributions from fund investors; (ii) using the capital of fund investors to make investments; (iii) financing certain investments with indebtedness; (iv) generating cash flows through the realization of investments; and (v) distributing cash flows from the realization of investments to fund investors. Because our consolidated funds and CFEs are treated as investment companies for accounting purposes, certain of these cash flow amounts are included in our cash flows from operations.

Net Cash Provided (Used) by Operating Activities
Our net cash provided (used) by operating activities was $(1.4) billion and $0.2 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These amounts primarily included: (i) proceeds from investments net of investments purchased of $(1.3) billion and $0.3 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (ii) net realized gains (losses) on investments of $63.4 million and $129.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (iii) change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments of (4.0) billion and $1.1 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; and (iv) capital allocation-based income (loss) of (1.4) billion and $0.8 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Investment funds are, for GAAP purposes, investment companies and reflect their investments and other financial instruments at fair value.
Net Cash Provided (Used) by Investing Activities
Our net cash provided (used) by investing activities was $(45.4) million and $(19.9) million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our investing activities included: (i) the purchase of fixed assets of $(41.4) million and $(19.5) million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively and (ii) development of oil and natural gas properties of $(4.1) million and $(0.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Net Cash Provided (Used) by Financing Activities
Our net cash provided (used) by financing activities was $1.5 billion and $7.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our financing activities primarily included: (i) distributions to, net of contributions by, our noncontrolling interests of $0.6 billion and $0.3 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (ii) proceeds received net of repayment of debt obligations of $1.2 billion and $(0.2) billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (iii) common stock dividends of $(69.7) million and $(66.6) million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (iv) repurchases of Class A common stock of $(246.2) million and $(28.6) million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; and (v) preferred stock dividends of $(8.3) million during each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Fees and Other, Net
 
The increase for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 as compared to the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 was primarily due to an increase in transactionmanagement fees and monitoring fees, partially offset by a corresponding increasedecrease in transaction fees, net of associated fee credits, and an increase in management fees.credits.

The increase in management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our European Fund V and Global Impact Fund as a result of new capital raised, and an increase relating to Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II which entered its investment period in the fourth quarter of 2019. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund IV and 2006 Fund.

Recurring monitoring fees increased $5.5 million, which was primarily the result of an increase in the number of monitoring fees earned. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had 57 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.5 million compared with 56 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we received a termination payment of $2.7 million in connection with the initial public offering of Calisen PLC (LSE: CLSN LN). There were no termination payments for the three months ended March 31, 2019. These termination payments may occur in the future; however, they are infrequent in nature and are generally correlated with the initial public offering and other realization activity in our private equity portfolio, and they are expected to continue to be smaller in size and number compared to prior periods.

The decrease in transaction fees was primarily attributable to an increasea decrease in the size and number of transaction fee-generating investments.fees earned. During the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, there were 3611 transaction fee-generating investments that paid an average fee of $6.5$1.5 million compared to 1615 transaction fee-generating investments that paid an average fee of $6.0$6.6 million during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019. For the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, approximately 38%79% of these transaction fees were paid by companies located in the Asia-Pacific region, 34%North America, 12% were paid from companies located in the North AmericaAsia-Pacific region, and 28%9% of these transaction fees were paid from companies located in Europe. Transaction fees vary by investment based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are transaction size, the particular agreements as to the amount of the fees, the complexity of the transaction, and KKR's role in the transaction. Additionally, transaction fees are generally not earned with respect to energy and real estate investments. The increasedecrease in fee credits is due primarily to a higherlower level of transaction fees and monitoring fees reimbursable to thewhich are shared with fund investors.

The increase in management fees was primarily due to (i) management fees earned from our Global Infrastructure Investors III Fund which entered its investment period subsequent to of the second quarter of 2018, (ii) management fees earned from our European Fund V which entered its investment period at the end of the first quarter of 2019 and (iii) increased capital invested in our core investment strategy, for which fees are earned on invested capital. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to lower management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund III, North America Fund XI, and 2006 Fund.

The increase in monitoring fees was primarily attributable to an increase in recurring monitoring fees compared to the prior period, partially offset by lower termination payments. Recurring monitoring fees increased $14.6 million, which was primarily the result of an increase in the size of monitoring fees paid by portfolio companies. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we had 57 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.9 million compared with 57 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we received a termination payment of $2.1 million in connection with the initial public offering of Trainline PLC, compared to $7.5 million received in connection with the initial public offering of BrightView Holdings, Inc. for the six

Net realizedUncalled commitments is the aggregate amount of unfunded capital commitments that KKR’s investment income remained relatively flatfunds and carry-paying co-investment vehicles have received from partners to contribute capital to fund future investments. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the amount of capital that is available to KKR’s investment funds to make future investments. Uncalled commitments are not reduced for investments completed using fund-level investment financing arrangements.

Total Fees and Other for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily as a result of an increase in comparisonmanagement fees and a decrease in fee credits, partially offset by a decrease in transaction fees.

For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our transaction fees during the period, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results—Operating Revenues."

The increase in management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our European Fund V and Global Impact Fund as a result of new capital raised, and an increase relating to Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II, which entered its investment period in the fourth quarter of 2019. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund IV and 2006 Fund.

Fee credits decreased compared to the prior period as increasesa net result of a lower level of transaction fees in net realized gains were offset by decreasesour Private Markets and Public Markets business lines. Fee credits owed to consolidated investment funds are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. Transaction fees earned from KKR portfolio companies are not eliminated upon consolidation because those fees are earned from companies which are not consolidated. Accordingly, certain transaction fees are reflected in revenues without a corresponding fee credit.

The decrease in carried interest income and dividends.
Forgeneral partner capital interest during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019, net realized gains were comprised primarily of gains from the sale of our investment in GEG German Estate Group AG, and from the sales or partial sales of our investments in Sedgwick Claims Management Services, Inc., Trainline PLC and United Group B.V. (telecom sector). Partially offsetting these realized gains were realized losses, the most significant of which was a realized loss on DoubleDutch, Inc.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, net realized gains were comprised primarily of gains from the sale of Private Markets investments including the sales or partial sales of our investments in Next Issue Media LLC, Välinge Innovation AB, Aricent Group, Gardner Denver Holdings, Inc. and Weld North Holdings LLC, as well as the sale of our alternative credit investment in Amedisys, Inc.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, interest income and dividends were comprised of (i) $88.4 million of interest income which consists primarily of interest that is received from our Public Markets investments, including CLOs and other credit investments and, to a lesser extent, our Capital Markets business and our cash balances and (ii) $40.9 million of dividend income from distributions received primarily through our real assets investments, including our real estate investment in KREF and our energy investments, as well as certain of our credit investments.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, interest income and dividends were comprised of (i) $86.9 million of interest income which consists primarily of interest that is received from our Public Markets investments including CLOs and other credit investments and to a lesser extent our India debt financing company and our cash balances and (ii) $56.9 million of dividend income from distributions received primarily through our real assets investments including our real estate investment in KREF, as well as our credit and energy investments.

The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was due primarily to highernet depreciation in the value of our investment portfolio as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily resulting from the impacts of COVID-19 on the economic outlook and financial markets.

Compensation and Benefits Expenses

The decrease in compensation recordedand benefits expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was primarily due to (i) a reversal of previously recognized accrued carried interest compensation resulting from a depreciation in connection with higher total segment revenues which were partially offset bythe value of our investment portfolio and (ii) lower equity-based compensation charges resulting from a decrease in the weighted average number of unvested shares outstanding.outstanding, partially offset by an increase in cash compensation and benefits.

The net gains from investment activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were comprised of net realized gains of $129.8 million and net unrealized gains of $1,074.1 million.
Realized Gains and Losses from Investment Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, net realized gains related primarily to realized gains on (i) the final sale of our investment in Sedgwick Claims Management Services, Inc. (financial services sector), (ii) the sale of real estate investments held through certain consolidated entities, and (iii) the sale of assets in our consolidated special situations funds.
Unrealized Gains from Investment Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, unrealized gains were driven primarily by (i) mark-to-market gains on our investment in First Data Corporation (renamed Fiserv, Inc. in connection with the merger transaction with Fiserv, Inc.) which is held as a co-investment by KKR, (ii) mark-to-market gains in portfolio companies in our core investment strategy, the most significant of which were PetVet Care Centers, LLC (health care sector), Heartland Dental, LLC (health care sector), and The Bay Clubs Company, LLC (hotels/leisure sector), and (iii) mark to market gains on our growth equity investments held by KKR and certain consolidated entities. Certain of our investment funds also hold an investment in First Data Corporation; these funds are not consolidated and as such, unrealized gains and losses relating to these funds' investments are not reflected in net gains (losses) from investment activities.
Unrealized Losses from Investment Activities
Partially offsetting the unrealized gains above were unrealized losses relating to (i) mark-to-market losses on alternative credit assets held in our consolidated special situations funds and our investment in Mr. Cooper Group Inc. (NASDAQ: COOP) and (ii) the reversal of previously recognized unrealized gains relating to the realization activity described above
For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's realized investment income, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results."
Dividend Income
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the most significant dividends received included $80.9 million from our consolidated real estate funds and $62.5 million from our investment in Fiserv, Inc. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the most significant dividends received included $14.7 million from our consolidated real estate funds and real estate investments held directly by KKR, $4.5 million from our consolidated special situations funds and $2.4 million from our consolidated energy funds. Significant dividends from portfolio companies and consolidated funds are generally not recurring quarterly dividends, and while they may occur in the future, their size and frequency are variable. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's dividend income, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAPOperating Results—Operating Revenues—Principal Activities Revenues—Realized Investment Income."

Interest Income
The decrease in interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to a lower level of interest income earned from our consolidated special situations funds. This decrease was partially offset by (i) the impact of closing four additional consolidated CLOs subsequent to March 31, 2019 and (ii) an increase in interest income from our consolidated direct lending funds, primarily related to an increase in the amount of capital deployed. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest income, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results—Operating Revenues—Principal Activities Revenues—Realized Investment Income."

Interest Expense
The increase in interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to the impact of (i) the issuance of senior notes subsequent to March 31, 2019, (ii) the impact of the closing of four additional consolidated CLOs subsequent to March 31, 2019, and (iii) increased borrowings from consolidated asset backed financing vehicles.

Income (Loss) Before Taxes
The loss before taxes during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was due primarily to net losses from investment activities, and to a lesser extent, a reversal of previously recognized carried interest. These losses were partially offset by a reversal of previously recognized carried interest compensation and an increase in dividend income, in each case as described above.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net income tax benefit was $360.7 million compared to a net income tax expense of $167.6 million for the prior period. In the current period, a deferred tax benefit was generated primarily by the net unrealized losses on our investment portfolio. Our effective tax rate under GAAP for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 7.9%. For a discussion of factors that impacted KKR's tax provision, see Note 11 "Income Taxes" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended March 31, 2020 relates primarily to net losses attributable to KKR Holdings representing its ownership interests in KKR Group Partnership as well as third-party limited partner interests in those investment funds that we consolidate. The net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was due primarily to net losses from investment activities recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as described above.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc.
The net loss attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily due to net losses from investment activities, and to a lesser extent, a reversal of previously recognized carried interest. These losses were partially offset by (i) a reversal of previously recognized carried interest compensation, (ii) an income tax benefit recognized primarily due to the impact of the net depreciation in our investment portfolio and (iii) a higher level of dividend income as compared to the prior period.

Fees and Other, Net
The increase for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 as compared to the prior period isthree months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to an increase in management fees and monitoring fees, partially offset by a higher leveldecrease in transaction fees, net of expenses that are creditableassociated fee credits.

The increase in management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our investment funds, in particular a higher level of broken-deal expenses, as wellEuropean Fund V and Global Impact Fund as a higher levelresult of professionalnew capital raised, and an increase relating to Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II which entered its investment period in the fourth quarter of 2019. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund IV and other administrative costs2006 Fund.

Recurring monitoring fees increased $5.5 million, which was primarily the result of an increase in the number of monitoring fees earned. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had 57 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.5 million compared with 56 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we received a termination payment of $2.7 million in connection with the growthinitial public offering of Calisen PLC (LSE: CLSN LN). There were no termination payments for the firm. three months ended March 31, 2019. These termination payments may occur in the future; however, they are infrequent in nature and are generally correlated with the initial public offering and other realization activity in our private equity portfolio, and they are expected to continue to be smaller in size and number compared to prior periods.

The leveldecrease in transaction fees was primarily attributable to a decrease in the size and number of broken-deal expenses cantransaction fees earned. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, there were 11 transaction fee-generating investments that paid an average fee of $1.5 million compared to 15 transaction fee-generating investments that paid an average fee of $6.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, approximately 79% of these transaction fees were paid by companies located in North America, 12% were paid from companies in the Asia-Pacific region, and 9% of these transaction fees were paid from companies located in Europe. Transaction fees vary significantly period to periodby investment based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are transaction size, the numberparticular agreements as to the amount of potential investments being pursued for our investment funds, the size andfees, the complexity of investments being pursuedthe transaction, and KKR's role in the number of investment funds currently in their investment period.

Interest Expense

For the six months ended June 30, 2019transaction. Additionally, transaction fees are generally not earned with respect to energy and 2018 interest expense relates primarily to the senior notes outstanding for KKR and KFN.real estate investments. The decrease in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the prior periodfee credits is due primarily to the redemption of preferred shares at KFN in the first quarter of 2018 and a lower level of borrowings in our Capital Markets business line, partially offset by the issuance of Euro denominated senior notes in the second quarter of 2019.
Income Taxes Paid
The increase in income taxes paid is primarily due to a higher level of income that is subject to corporate taxes following the Conversion. Prior to the Conversion, KKR's investment income and carried interest generally were not subject to U.S. corporate income taxes. Subsequent to the Conversion, all income earned by KKR is subject to U.S. corporate income taxestransaction fees which has resulted in, and we believe will continue to result in, an overall higher income taxes paid when compared to periods prior to the Conversion. As a result of the Conversion, KKR recognized a partial step-up in the tax bases of certain assets that will be recovered as those assets are sold or the basis is amortized. This generally results in a lower level of taxable gains upon realization of carried interest and investment income for those assets that existed on the date of the Conversion. Over time asshared with fund investors.

these assets with higher tax basis are realized, we expect that our income taxes paid and segment effective tax rate will increase. The pace of such increase is not currently known and is dependent on a variety of factors including the pace at which the assets with higher tax basis are realized and the mix of all assets realized in any given period. Therefore, we cannot predict what the increase, if any, in income taxes paid will be quarter-over-quarter or year-over-year.
After-tax Distributable Earnings
The net increase in after-tax distributable earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the prior period was due primarily to higher transaction fees and management fees, largely offset by a higher level of fee credits, compensation expense, and income taxes paid in the current period compared to the prior period.

Uncalled Commitments
Uncalled commitments is the aggregate amount of 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. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the amount of capital that is available to KKR’s investment funds to make future investments. Uncalled commitments are not reduced for investments completed using fund-level investment financing arrangements.

Total Revenues $(1,001,505) $1,187,480
 $(2,188,985)

Total Fees and Other for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily as a result of an increase in management fees and a decrease in fee credits, partially offset by a decrease in transaction fees.

For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our transaction fees during the period, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results—Operating Revenues."

The increase in management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our European Fund V and Global Impact Fund as a result of new capital raised, and an increase relating to Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II, which entered its investment period in the fourth quarter of 2019. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund IV and 2006 Fund.

Fee credits decreased compared to the prior period as a net result of a lower level of transaction fees in our Private Markets and Public Markets business lines. Fee credits owed to consolidated investment funds are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. Transaction fees earned from KKR portfolio companies are not eliminated upon consolidation because those fees are earned from companies which are not consolidated. Accordingly, certain transaction fees are reflected in revenues without a corresponding fee credit.

The decrease in carried interest and general partner capital interest during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was due primarily to net depreciation in the value of our investment portfolio as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily resulting from the impacts of COVID-19 on the economic outlook and financial markets.

Compensation and Benefits Expenses

The decrease in compensation and benefits expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was primarily due to (i) a reversal of previously recognized accrued carried interest compensation resulting from a depreciation in the value of our investment portfolio and (ii) lower equity-based compensation charges resulting from a decrease in the weighted average number of unvested shares outstanding, partially offset by an increase in cash compensation and benefits.

Table of Contents



General, Administrative and Other Expenses

The decrease in general, administrative and other expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was primarily due to (i) a lower level of expenses reimbursable by investment funds and (ii) a decrease in the expenses incurred by oil and gas entities that are consolidated.

(financial services sector), (ii) the sale of real estate investments held through certain consolidated entities, and (iii) the sale of assets in our consolidated special situations funds.
Unrealized Gains from Investment Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, unrealized gains were driven primarily by (i) mark-to-market gains on our investment in First Data Corporation (renamed Fiserv, Inc. in connection with the merger transaction with Fiserv, Inc.) which is held as a co-investment by KKR, (ii) mark-to-market gains in portfolio companies in our core investment strategy, the most significant of which were PetVet Care Centers, LLC (health care sector), Heartland Dental, LLC (health care sector), and The Bay Clubs Company, LLC (hotels/leisure sector), and (iii) mark to market gains on our growth equity investments held by KKR and certain consolidated entities. Certain of our investment funds also hold an investment in First Data Corporation; these funds are not consolidated and as such, unrealized gains and losses relating to these funds' investments are not reflected in net gains (losses) from investment activities.

For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's realized investment income, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results."
Dividend Income
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the most significant dividends received included $80.9 million from our consolidated real estate funds and $62.5 million from our investment in Fiserv, Inc.

For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's dividend income, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAPOperating Results—Operating Revenues—Principal Activities Revenues—Realized Investment Income."

Interest Income
The decrease in interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to a lower level of interest income earned from our consolidated special situations funds. This decrease was partially offset by (i) the impact of closing four additional consolidated CLOs subsequent to March 31, 2019 and (ii) an increase in interest income from our consolidated direct lending funds, primarily related to an increase in the amount of capital deployed. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest income, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Operating Results—Operating Revenues—Principal Activities Revenues—Realized Investment Income."

Interest Expense
The increase in interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to the impact of (i) the issuance of senior notes subsequent to March 31, 2019, (ii) the impact of the closing of four additional consolidated CLOs subsequent to March 31, 2019, and (iii) increased borrowings from consolidated asset backed financing vehicles.

Income (Loss) Before Taxes
The loss before taxes during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was due primarily to net losses from investment activities, and to a lesser extent, a reversal of previously recognized carried interest. These losses were partially offset by a reversal of previously recognized carried interest compensation and an increase in dividend income, in each case as described above.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net income tax benefit was $360.7 million compared to a net income tax expense of $167.6 million for the prior period.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc.
The net loss attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily due to net losses from investment activities, and to a lesser extent, a reversal of previously recognized carried interest.

KKR & Co. Inc. Stockholders’ Equity - Common Stock per Outstanding Share of Class A common stock was $15.97 as of March 31, 2020, down from $18.44 as of December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to the depreciation in the value of our investment portfolio that is attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. and to a lesser extent dividends to Class A common stockholders.

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (GAAP Basis)
The accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows include the cash flows of our consolidated entities which include certain consolidated investment funds and CFEs notwithstanding the fact that we may hold only a minority economic interest in those funds and CFEs.

The assets of our consolidated funds and CFEs, on a gross basis, can be substantially larger than the assets of our business and, accordingly, could have a substantial effect on the cash flows reflected in our consolidated statements of cash flows. The primary cash flow activities of our consolidated funds and CFEs involve: (i) capital contributions from fund investors; (ii) using the capital of fund investors to make investments; (iii) financing certain investments with indebtedness; (iv) generating cash flows through the realization of investments; and (v) distributing cash flows from the realization of investments to fund investors. Because our consolidated funds and CFEs are treated as investment companies for accounting purposes, certain of these cash flow amounts are included in our cash flows from operations.

Net Cash Provided (Used) by Operating Activities
Our net cash provided (used) by operating activities was $(1.4) billion and $0.2 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These amounts primarily included: (i) proceeds from investments net of investments purchased of $(1.3) billion and $0.3 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (ii) net realized gains (losses) on investments of $63.4 million and $129.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (iii) change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments of (4.0) billion and $1.1 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; and (iv) capital allocation-based income (loss) of (1.4) billion and $0.8 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Investment funds are, for GAAP purposes, investment companies and reflect their investments and other financial instruments at fair value.
Net Cash Provided (Used) by Investing Activities
Our net cash provided (used) by investing activities was $(45.4) million and $(19.9) million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Net Cash Provided (Used) by Financing Activities
Our net cash provided (used) by financing activities was $1.5 billion and $7.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our financing activities primarily included: (i) distributions to, net of contributions by, our noncontrolling interests of $0.6 billion and $0.3 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (ii) proceeds received net of repayment of debt obligations of $1.2 billion and $(0.2) billion during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (iii) common stock dividends of $(69.7) million and $(66.6) million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; (iv) repurchases of Class A common stock of $(246.2) million and $(28.6) million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively; and (v) preferred stock dividends of $(8.3) million during each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Fees and Other, Net
The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to an increase in management fees and monitoring fees, partially offset by a decrease in transaction fees, net of associated fee credits.

The increase in management fees was primarily due to management fees earned from our European Fund V and Global Impact Fund as a result of new capital raised, and an increase relating to Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II which entered its investment period in the fourth quarter of 2019. This net increase was partially offset by decreases due to management fees calculated based on lower levels of invested capital as a result of realizations primarily in our European Fund IV and 2006 Fund.

Recurring monitoring fees increased $5.5 million, which was primarily the result of an increase in the number of monitoring fees earned. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had 57 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.5 million compared with 56 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we received a termination payment of $2.7 million in connection with the initial public offering of Calisen PLC (LSE: CLSN LN). There were no termination payments for the three months ended March 31, 2019. These termination payments may occur in the future; however, they are infrequent in nature and are generally correlated with the initial public offering and other realization activity in our private equity portfolio, and they are expected to continue to be smaller in size and number compared to prior periods.

The decrease in transaction fees was primarily attributable to a decrease in the size and number of transaction fees earned. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, there were 11 transaction fee-generating investments that paid an average fee of $1.5 million compared to 15 transaction fee-generating investments that paid an average fee of $6.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, approximately 79% of these transaction fees were paid by companies located in North America, 12% were paid from companies in the Asia-Pacific region, and 9% of these transaction fees were paid from companies located in Europe. Transaction fees vary by investment based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are transaction size, the particular agreements as to the amount of the fees, the complexity of the transaction, and KKR's role in the transaction. Additionally, transaction fees are generally not earned with respect to energy and real estate investments. The decrease in fee credits is due primarily to a lower level of transaction fees which are shared with fund investors.

(financial services sector) and KCF Technologies Inc. (industrial sector), realized performance income from our core investment vehicles, and dividends received from our investment in Fiserv, Inc.

Realized carried interest for the three months ended March 31, 2019 consisted primarily of realized gains from the sale of Sedgwick Claims Management Services, Inc. and the partial sales of United Group B.V. (telecom sector) and GoDaddy Inc. (NYSE:GDDY).

Table of Contents


The increase in management fees was primarily due to an increase in fees earned from our CLOs and other alternative credit strategies, primarily as a result of greater overall FPAUM.
The decrease in transaction fees was primarily attributable to a decrease in the average size of transaction fees earned during the period. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, there were 11 transaction fee generating investments that paid an average fee of $1.9 million, compared to 11 transaction fee generating investments that paid an average fee of $2.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Realized Performance Income
The net increase for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily attributable to realized carried interest earned in certain of our alternative credit strategy funds, partially offset by lower incentive fees received from BDCs advised by FS/KKR Advisor.
Capital Markets Operating Revenues

Transaction fees remained relatively flat for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. Overall, we completed 43 capital markets transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2020, of which 3 represented equity offerings and 40 represented debt offerings, as compared to 41 transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2019, of which 6 represented equity offerings and 35 represented debt offerings. We earned fees in connection with underwriting, syndication and other capital markets services. While each of the capital markets transactions that we undertake in this business line is separately negotiated, our fee rates are generally higher with respect to underwriting or syndicating equity offerings than with respect to debt offerings, and the amount of fees that we earn for similar transactions generally correlates with overall transaction sizes. Our capital markets fees are generated in connection with our Private Markets and Public Markets business lines as well as from third-party companies. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, approximately 49% of our transaction fees were earned from unaffiliated third parties as compared to approximately 56% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Our transaction fees are comprised of fees earned from North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, approximately 29% of our transaction fees were generated outside of North America as compared to approximately 30% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Our Capital Markets business line is dependent on the overall capital markets environment, which is influenced by equity prices, credit spreads, and volatility. Our Capital Markets business line does not generate management or monitoring fees.

Realized Investment Income
The increase is primarily due to an increase in interest income and dividends, partially offset by a decreased level of net realized gains during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, interest income and dividends were comprised of (i) $62.5 million of dividend income from our investment in Fiserv, Inc. and $38.9 million of dividend income from distributions received primarily through our real estate investments including our investment in KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc. ("KREF"), a NYSE-listed real estate investment trust, and (ii) $37.1 million of interest income which consists primarily of interest that is received from our Public Markets investments including CLOs and other credit investments and to a lesser extent our cash balances and investments held at our India debt finance company. See "—Analysis of Non-GAAPOperating Results—Non-GAAP Balance Sheet Measures."
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, interest income and dividends were comprised of (i) $42.3 million of interest income which consists primarily of interest that is received from our Public Markets investments including CLOs and other credit investments and to a lesser extent investments held at our India debt financing company and our cash balances and (ii) $15.9 million of dividend income from distributions received primarily through our energy investments and real estate investments including our investment in KREF.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net realized gains were comprised of gains primarily from the sale of our Private Markets investments including the final sales of KCF Technologies, Inc. and Privilege Underwriters, Inc. Partially offsetting these realized gains were realized losses, the most significant of which was a realized loss on the sale of our investment in General Healthcare Group (healthcare sector).
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, net realized gains were comprised of gains primarily from the sale of our Private Markets investments including the sale of our investments in Sedgwick Claims Management Services, Inc., United Group B.V. and Cylance, Inc. (technology sector).
Subsequent to March 31, 2020, we completed, or signed and expect to complete, sales, partial sales or secondary sales with respect to certain private equity portfolio companies and other investments that, if and when completed, are expected to result in realized performance income and realized investment income in excess of $400 million. Some of these transactions are not complete, and are subject to the satisfaction of closing conditions, including but not limited to regulatory approvals; there can be no assurance if or when any of these transactions will be completed.
On January 1, 2020, KKR Capstone was acquired by KKR and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of KKR. For GAAP purposes, KKR Capstone was consolidated prior to January 1, 2020 and as such the fees and expenses attributable to KKR Capstone were included in KKR's consolidated revenues and expenses. Additionally, prior to January 1, 2020, KKR excluded the results of KKR Capstone from KKR's non-GAAP financial measures since KKR presents these financial measures prior to giving effect to the consolidation of certain entities that are not legal subsidiaries of KKR.
Following this acquisition, KKR's after-tax distributable earnings includes the net income (loss) from KKR Capstone within realized investment income (loss). For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, total fees attributable to KKR Capstone were $20.9 million and total expenses attributable to KKR Capstone were $17.8 million. For KKR Capstone-related adjustments in reconciling operating revenues and operating expenses to GAAP revenues and expenses, respectively, see "—Non-GAAP Balance Sheet Measures—Reconciliations to GAAP Measures".
Operating Expenses
Compensation and Benefits
The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was due primarily to higher compensation recorded in connection with higher total operating revenues, partially offset by lower equity-based compensation charges resulting from a decrease in the weighted average number of unvested shares outstanding.

Occupancy and Other Operating Expenses

The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period is primarily due to a higher level of professional fees and other administrative costs in connection with the growth of the firm, as well as a higher level of expenses that are creditable to our investment funds, in particular a higher level of broken-deal expenses. The level of broken-deal expenses can vary significantly period to period based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are the number

Table of Contents


of potential investments being pursued for our investment funds, the size and complexity of investments being pursued and the number of investment funds currently in their investment period.
Other Components of After-tax Distributable Earnings
Interest Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, interest expense relates primarily to the senior notes outstanding for KKR and KFN. The increase in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period is due primarily to (i) the issuance of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.750% Senior Notes due 2029, the issuance of the €650 million aggregate principal amount of 1.625% Senior Notes due 2029, and the issuance of the $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.625% Senior Notes due 2050, subsequent to March 31, 2019 and (ii) a higher level of borrowings in our Capital Markets business line. These increases were partially offset by the redemption of our $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.375% Senior Notes due 2020 in the third quarter of 2019.
Income Taxes Paid
The increase in income taxes paid is primarily due to a higher level of total distributable operating earnings.
After-tax Distributable Earnings
The increase in after-tax distributable earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior period was due primarily to a higher level of realized investment income, management fees, and realized performance income. These increases were partially offset by an increase in compensation and benefits expense and a decrease in transaction fees, net of associated fee credits, in the current period compared to the prior period.

AUM for the Private Markets business line was $114.1 billion at March 31, 2020, a decrease of $5.2 billion, compared to $119.3 billion at December 31, 2019.

The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in the value of our Private Markets portfolio and to a lesser extent, distributions to Private Markets fund investors, primarily as a result of realizations, most notably in North America Fund XI, 2006 Fund, Asian Fund III and Global Infrastructure Investors II. These decreases were partially offset by new capital raised primarily in Asian Fund IV, Property Partners Americas, Asia Pacific Infrastructure Investors and Real Estate Partners Europe II.
The decrease in the value of our Private Markets portfolio was driven primarily by net losses of $1.3 billion in both North America Fund XI and 2006 Fund, $0.9 billion in Asian Fund II and $0.5 billion in Energy Income and Growth Fund. Partially offsetting these net losses were net gains of $0.6 billion in Global Infrastructure Investors II.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the value of our private equity investment portfolio decreased 12.1%. This was comprised of an 8.2% decrease in value of our privately held investments and a 23.5% decrease in share prices of various publicly held or publicly indexed investments. Additionally, our infrastructure investment portfolio, which is comprised predominately of privately held investments, increased 6.4%. See "—Business Environment" for more details on the potential adverse effects of COVID-19 on our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.

The most significant decreases in value of our privately held investments related to Magneti Marelli S.p.A. (industrial sector), Envision Healthcare (healthcare sector) and Travelopia (services sector). These decreases in value on our privately held investments were partially offset by increases in value relating primarily to Deutsche Glasfaser (telecom sector), AppLovin Corporation (technology sector) and AlphaTheta Corporation (technology sector). The decreased valuations of individual companies in our privately held investments, in the aggregate, generally related to (i) an unfavorable business outlook and (ii) a decrease in the value of market comparables, both influenced from the impact of COVID-19 on the economic outlook and overall market environment. The increased valuations of individual companies in our privately held investments, in the aggregate, generally related to individual company performance, and with respect to Deutsche Glasfaser and AlphaTheta Corporation, increases in valuation reflecting agreements to exit these investments.

The most significant decreases in share prices of various publicly held or publicly indexed investments were decreases in Fiserv, Inc., Ingersoll Rand Inc. (NYSE: IR), and Laureate Education, Inc. (NASDAQ: LAUR).

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the value of our private equity investment portfolio increased 11.1%. This was comprised of a 31.1% increase in share prices of various publicly held or publicly indexed investments and a 5.5% increase in value of our privately held investments.

The most significant increases in share prices of various publicly held or publicly indexed investments were gains in First Data Corporation, Gardner Denver Holdings, Inc. (renamed Ingersoll Rand Inc. in connection with the merger transaction with Ingersoll Rand Inc.) and Fujian Sunner Development Co. Ltd. (SZ: 002299). These increases were partially offset by decreases in share prices of various publicly held investments, the most significant of which were losses in AmbeaAB (STO: AMBEA), RigNet, Inc. (NASDAQ: RNET) and Laureate Education, Inc.

The most significant increases in value of our privately held investments related to AppLovin Corporation, KKR Debt Investors 2006 S.à.r.l. (financial services sector) and Cue & Company (technology sector). These increases in value on our privately held investments were partially offset by decreases in value relating primarily to Mills Fleet Farm Group LLC (retail sector), Channel Control Merchants, LLC (retail sector) and Ticket Monster Inc. (technology sector). The increased valuations of individual companies in our privately held investments, in the aggregate, generally related to (i) individual company performance and (ii) an increase in the value of market comparables. The decreased valuations of individual companies in our privately held investments, in the aggregate, generally related to individual company performance or, in certain cases, an unfavorable business outlook.

Certain investments included in our AUM are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Those investments expose our AUM to the risk that the value of the investments will be affected by changes in exchange rates between the currency in which the investments are denominated and the currency in which the investments are made. We generally seek to reduce these risks by employing hedging transactions in connection with certain investments, including using foreign currency options and foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce exposure to changes in exchange rates when a meaningful amount of capital has been invested in currencies other than the currencies in which the investments are denominated. We do not, however, hedge our currency exposure in all currencies or for all investments.

Redemptions(1,494,300)
Change in Value(7,059,800)
March 31, 2020$92,964,900
AUM in our Public Markets business line totaled $93.0 billion at March 31, 2020, a decrease of $6.1 billion compared to $99.1 billion at December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a decrease in the value of our Public Markets portfolio and (ii) to a lesser extent, redemptions primarily in our hedge fund partnerships and distributions to Public Markets fund investors.

The decrease in the value of our Public Markets portfolio was driven primarily by net losses of $2.8 billion in certain leveraged credit strategies, $2.2 billion in other alternative credit strategies, and $1.5 billion in BDCs. See "—Business Environment" for more details on the potential adverse effects of COVID-19 on our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations. These decreases were partially offset by new capital raised in multiple strategies, most notably $1.0 billion in our hedge fund partnerships, $0.9 billion in other leveraged credit strategies, and $0.5 billion in CLOs.

Change in Value431,600
March 31, 2020$77,566,400

FPAUM in our Private Markets business line was $77.6 billion at March 31, 2020, an increase of $0.7 billion, compared to $76.9 billion at December 31, 2019.

The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised of $0.3 billion in each of Asia Pacific Infrastructure Investors, Real Estate Partners Europe II and private equity separately managed accounts, and $0.1 billion in each of Global Impact Fund and Asia Real Estate Partners. These increases were partially offset by distributions relating to realizations of $0.3 billion in each of North America Fund XI and 2006 Fund and $0.2 billion in Global Infrastructure Investors II.

Uncalled capital commitments from Private Markets investment funds from which KKR is currently not earning management fees amounted to approximately $12.5 billion at March 31, 2020, which includes capital commitments reserved for follow-on investments for funds that have completed their investment periods. This capital will generally begin to earn management fees upon deployment of the capital or upon the commencement of the fund's investment period. The average annual management fee rate associated with this capital is approximately 1.1%. We will not begin earning fees on this capital until it is deployed or the related investment period commences, neither of which is guaranteed to occur.  If and when such management fees are earned, which will occur over an extended period of time, a portion of existing FPAUM may cease paying fees or pay lower fees, thus offsetting a portion of any new management fees earned.

FPAUM in our Public Markets business line was $81.5 billion at March 31, 2020, a decrease of $2.8 billion, compared to FPAUM of $84.3 billion at December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a decrease in the value of our Public Markets portfolio and (ii) to a lesser extent, redemptions primarily in our hedge fund partnerships and distributions to Public Markets fund investors. Partially offsetting these decreases were new capital raised across multiple strategies in our Public Markets portfolio.

The decrease in the value of our Public Markets portfolio was driven primarily by net losses of $2.8 billion in certain leveraged credit strategies and $1.5 billion in BDCs. See "—Business Environment" for more details on the potential adverse effects of COVID-19 on our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.

These decreases were partially offset by new capital raised in multiple strategies, most notably $1.1 billion in both other alternative credit strategies and certain leveraged credit strategies, $1.0 billion in our hedge fund partnerships, and $0.5 billion in CLOs.

Uncalled capital commitments from Public Markets investment funds from which KKR is currently not earning management fees amounted to approximately $6.2 billion at March 31, 2020. This capital will generally begin to earn management fees upon deployment of the capital or upon the commencement of the fund's investment period.

Segment Balance Sheet
Our segment balance sheet is the balance sheet of KKR & Co. Inc. and its subsidiaries on a segment basis which includes, but is not limited to, our investment management companies, broker-dealer companies, general partners of our investment funds, and KFN. Our segment balance sheet excludes the assets and liabilities of our investment funds and CFEs and other consolidated entities that are not subsidiaries of KKR & Co. Inc.
Investments
Investments is a term used solely for purposes of financial presentation of a portion of KKR's balance sheet and includes majority ownership of subsidiaries that operate KKR's asset management and other businesses, including the general partner interests of KKR's investment funds.
Cash and Short-Term Investments
Cash and short-term investments represent cash and liquid short-term investments in high-grade, short-duration cash management strategies used by KKR to generate additional yield on our excess liquidity and is used by management in evaluating KKR's liquidity position. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into KKR's available liquidity. Cash and short-term investments differ from cash and cash equivalents on a GAAP basis as a result

110



of the inclusion of liquid short-term investments in cash and short-term investments. The impact that these liquid short-term investments have on cash and cash equivalents on a GAAP basis is reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows within cash flows from operating activities. Accordingly, the exclusion of these investments from cash and cash equivalents on a GAAP basis has no impact on cash provided (used) by operating activities, investing activities or financing activities.Non-GAAP Balance Sheet Measures

The following table presents the holdings of our segment balance sheetinvestments by asset class as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. To the extent investments onin our segment balance sheetoperating assets are realized at values below their cost in future periods, after-tax distributable earnings would be adversely affected by the amount of such loss, if any, during the period in which the realization event occurs. For example, we recognized net unrealized losses in our credit investment portfolio at our India debt finance company. As of March 31, 2020, KKR’s 51% interest in our India debt finance company had a cost basis of approximately $204 million, comprised of invested capital of $100 million plus reinvested earnings. If the value of our 51% investment is ultimately realized at the current carrying value of $92 million, future realized investment losses of approximately $112 million would be recognized based on valuations as of March 31, 2020, which would reduce after-tax distributable earnings in future periods.

See Note 12 "Equity Based Compensation" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
Liquidity
 
We manage our liquidity and capital requirements by focusing on our cash flows before the consolidation of our funds and CFEs and the effect of changes in short term assets and liabilities, which we anticipate will be settled for cash within one year. Our primary cash flow activities on a segment basis typically involve: (i) generating cash flow from operations; (ii) generating income from investment activities, by investing in investments that generate yield (namely interest and dividends), as well as the sale of investments and other assets; (iii) funding capital commitments that we have made to, and advancing capital to, our funds and CLOs; (iv) developing and funding new investment strategies, investment products, and other growth initiatives, including acquisitions of other investments, assets, and businesses; (v) underwriting and funding commitments in our capital markets business; (vi) distributing cash flow to our stockholders and holders of our Series A and Series B Preferred Stock; and (vii) paying borrowings, interest payments, and repayments under credit agreements, our senior notes, and other borrowing arrangements. See "—Liquidity—Liquidity Needs—Dividends."

See "—Business Environment" for more details on the potential adverse effects of COVID-19 on our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.

Sources of Liquidity
 
Our primary sources of liquidity consist of amounts received from: (i) our operating activities, including the fees earned from our funds, portfolio companies, and capital markets transactions; (ii) realizations on carried interest from our investment funds; (iii) interest and dividends from investments that generate yield, including our investments in CLOs; (iv) realizations on and sales of investments and other assets, including the transfers of investments for fund formations; and (v) borrowings under our credit facilities, debt offerings, and other borrowing arrangements. In addition, we may generate cash proceeds from sales of our equity securities.
 
Many of our investment funds provide carried interest. With respect to our private equity funds, carried interest is distributed to the general partner of a private equity fund with a clawback provision only after all of the following are met: (i) a realization event has occurred (e.g., sale of a portfolio company, dividend, etc.); (ii) the vehicle has achieved positive overall investment returns since its inception, in excess of performance hurdles where applicable;applicable, and is accruing carried interest; and (iii) with respect to investments with a fair value below cost, cost has been returned to fund investors in an amount sufficient to reduce remaining cost to the investments' fair value. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, certain of our funds had met the first and second criteria, as described above, but did not meet the third criteria. In these cases, carried interest accrues on the consolidated statement of operations, but will not be distributed in cash to us as the general partner of an investment fund upon a realization event. For a fund that has a fair value above cost, overall, and is otherwise accruing carried interest, but has one or more investments where fair value is below cost, the shortfall between cost and fair value for such investments is referred to as a "netting hole." When netting holes are present, realized gains on individual investments that would otherwise allow the general partner to receive carried interest distributions are instead used to return invested capital to our funds' limited partners in an amount equal to the netting hole. Once netting holes have been filled with either (a) return of capital equal to the netting hole

Table of Contents


for those investments where fair value is below cost or (b) increases in the fair value of those investments where fair value is below cost, then realized carried interest will be distributed to the general partner upon a realization event. A fund that is in a position to pay cash carry refers to a fund for which carried interest is expected to be paid to the general partner upon the next material realization event, which includes funds with no netting holes as well as funds with

Table of Contents


a netting hole that is sufficiently small in size such that the next material realization event would be expected to result in the payment of carried interest. Strategic investor partnerships with fund investors may require netting across the various funds in which they invest, which may reduce the carried interest we otherwise would have earned if such fund investors were to have invested in our funds without the existence of the strategic investor partnership. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Strategic investor partnerships have longer investment periods and invest in multiple strategies, which may increase the possibility of a 'netting hole,' which will result in less carried interest for us, as well as clawback liabilities" in our Annual Report.
 
As of June 30, 2019, noMarch 31, 2020, netting holes in excess of $50 million existed at six of our private equity funds.funds, which were Americas Fund XII of $652 million, Asian Fund II of $494 million, North America Fund XI of $340 million, Asian Fund III of $179 million, 2006 Fund of $177 million, and Asian Fund of $93 million. In accordance with the criteria set forth above, other funds currently have and may in the future develop netting holes, and netting holes for those and other funds may otherwise increase or decrease in the future.

We have access to funding under various credit facilities, other borrowing arrangements and other sources of liquidity that we have entered into with major financial institutions or which we receive from the capital markets. The following describes these sources of liquidity.

Revolving Credit Agreements, Senior Notes, KFN Debt Obligation, KFN Securities and Real Estate Financing

For a discussion of KKR's debt obligations, including our revolving credit agreements, senior notes, KFN debt obligations, KFN securities and corporate real estate financing, see Note 10 "Debt Obligations" to the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report and Note 10 "Debt Obligations" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Preferred Stock

For a discussion of KKR's equity, including our preferred stock, see Part II. Item 5. "Other Information" in this report and Note 15 "Equity" to the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report.

Liquidity Needs
 
We expect that our primary liquidity needs will consist of cash required to:

continue to support and grow our business lines, including seeding new strategies, funding our capital commitments made to existing and future funds, co-investments and any net capital requirements of our capital markets companies, pay the costs related to fundraising and launching of new strategies, and otherwise supporting investment vehicles which we sponsor;
 
warehouse investments in portfolio companies or other investments for the benefit of one or more of our funds, vehicles, accounts or CLOs pending the contribution of committed capital by the investors in such vehicles, and advancing capital to them for operational or other needs;

service debt obligations including the payment of obligations upon maturity or redemption, as well as any contingent liabilities that may give rise to future cash payments;

fund cash operating expenses and contingencies, including litigation matters; 

payment ofpay corporate income taxes following the Conversion;and other taxes;

pay amounts that may become due under our tax receivable agreement with KKR Holdings; 

pay cash dividends in accordance with our dividend policy for our Class A common stock or the terms of our preferred stock;  

underwrite commitments, advance loan proceeds and fund syndication commitments within our capital markets business;

make future purchase price payments in connection with our proprietary investments, such as our hedge fund partnership with Marshall Wace, to the extent not paid by newly issued Class A common stock;

support and acquire other assets for our Principal Activities business line, including other businesses, investments and assets, some of which may be required to satisfy regulatory requirements for our capital markets business or risk retention requirements for CLOs (to the extent it continues to apply); and

repurchase KKR's Class A common stock or retire equity awards pursuant to the share repurchase program or other securities issued by KKR.

KKR & Co. Inc. Share Repurchase Program

Under the termsFor a discussion of ourKKR's share repurchase program, KKR is authorized to repurchase its Class A common stock from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing, manner, price and amount of any Class A common stock repurchases will be determined by KKR in its discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. KKR expects that the program, which has no expiration date, will be in effect until the maximum approved dollar amount has been used. The program does not require KKR to repurchase any specific number of shares of Class A common stock, and the program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time. As of June 30, 2019, $447 million was available under the repurchase program.
In addition to the purchases of Class A common stock as described above, the repurchase program will be used for the retirement (by cash settlement or the payment of tax withholding amounts upon net settlement) of equity awards issued pursuant to our Equity Incentive Plans representing the right to receive Class A common stock.

Capital Commitments

The agreements governing our active investment funds generally require the general partners of the funds to make minimum capital commitments to such funds, which usuallygenerally range from 2% to 8% of a fund's total capital commitments at final closing; however, the size of our general partner commitment toclosing, but may be greater for certain funds (i) where we are pursuing newer strategies, may exceed this range. (ii) where third party investor demand is limited, and (iii) where a larger commitment is consistent with the asset allocation strategy our balance sheet is pursuing.

Other Commitments
In addition to the uncalled commitments to our investment funds as shown above, KKR has entered into contractual commitments with respect to (i) the purchase of investments and other assets primarily in our Principal Activities business line and (ii) underwriting transactions, debt financing, and syndications in our Capital Markets business line. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, these commitments amounted to $17.4$200.0 million and $735.2$570.8 million, respectively. Whether these amounts are actually funded, in whole or in part, depends on the contractual terms of such commitments, including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions to closing or funding. The unfunded commitments shown for our Capital Markets business line are shown without reflecting arrangements that may reduce the actual amount of contractual commitments shown occurring after June 30, 2019. Our capital markets business has an arrangement with a third party, which reduces our risk when underwriting certain debt transactions, and thus our unfunded commitments as of June 30, 2019 areMarch 31, 2020 have been reduced to reflect the amount to be funded by such third party. In the case of purchases of investments or assets in our Principal Activities business line, the amount to be funded includes amounts that are intended to be syndicated to third parties, and the actual amounts to be funded may be less than shown.

TableOn January 14, 2020, KKR committed to invest up to an additional $150 million in KKR India Financial Services to support KKR’s alternative credit business in India. As of ContentsMarch 31, 2020, none of the $150 million commitment has been invested.


Investment in Marshall Wace
In connection with our investment in Marshall Wace, either of Marshall Wace or KKR may, in the fourth quarter of 2019, exercise a put option or a call option, respectively, that would give KKR an incremental 5% equity interest in Marshall Wace. KKR currently holds an ownership interest of 34.6%. The exercise of such options would require the use of cash and/or KKR Class A common stock.
Tax Receivable Agreement
We may be required to acquire KKR Group Partnership Units from time to time pursuant to our exchange agreement with KKR Holdings, which may result in an increase in our tax basis of the assets of the KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership at the time of an exchange of KKR Group Partnership Units. We have entered into a tax receivable agreement with KKR Holdings, which requires us to pay to KKR Holdings, or to current and former principals who have exchanged KKR Holdings units for KKR Class AKKR's common stock as transferees of KKR Group Partnership Units, 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax that we realize as a result of the increase in tax basis described above, as well as 85% of the amount of any such savings we realize as a result of increases in tax basis that arise due to future payments under the agreement. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, an undiscounted payable of $119.9$145.1 million has been recorded in due to affiliates in the financial statements representing management's best estimate of the amounts currently expected to be owed under the tax receivable agreement. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, approximately $35.8$43.0 million of cumulative cash payments have been made under the tax receivable agreement.
Following the Conversion, we expect the amount of future payments under the tax receivable agreement to be materially higher than it would have been had we not converted to a corporation. In addition, our obligations under the tax receivable agreement would be effectively accelerated in the event of an early termination of the tax receivable agreement by us or in the event of certain mergers, asset sales and other forms of business combinations or other changes of control. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Organization—We will be required to pay our principals for most of the benefits relating to our use of tax attributes we receive from prior and future exchanges of our Class A common stock for KKR Group Partnership Units and related transactions" in our Annual Report.
Dividends
A dividend of $0.125$0.135 per share of Class Aour common stock has been declared for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, which will be paid on August 20, 2019June 2, 2020 to holders of record of Class Aour common stock as of the close of business on August 5, 2019.May 18, 2020.
A dividend of $0.421875 per share of Series A Preferred Stock has been declared and set aside for payment on September 16, 2019June 15, 2020 to holders of record of Series A Preferred Stock as of the close of business on SeptemberJune 1, 2019.2020. A dividend of $0.406250 per share of Series B Preferred Stock has been declared and set aside for payment on September 16, 2019June 15, 2020 to holders of record of Series B Preferred Stock as of the close of business on SeptemberJune 1, 2019.2020.
When KKR & Co. Inc. receives distributions from the KKR Group Partnerships (the holding companies of the KKR business),Partnership, KKR Holdings receives its pro rata share of such distributions from the KKR Group Partnerships.Partnership.
The declaration and payment of dividends to our Class A common stockholders will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors, and our dividend policy may be changed at any time. Our current dividend policy is to pay dividends to holders of our Class A common stock in an annual aggregate amount of $0.50$0.54 per share (or a quarterly dividend of $0.125$0.135 per share), subject to the discretion of our board of directors based on a number of factors, including KKR’s future financial performance and other considerations that the board deems relevant, and compliance with the terms of KKR & Co. Inc.'s certificate of incorporation and applicable law. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, any dividends we pay (including dividends on our preferred stock) generally will be treated as qualified dividend income for U.S. individual stockholders to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. There can be no assurance that future dividends will be made as intended or at all or that any particular dividend policy for our Class A common stock will be maintained. Furthermore, the declaration and payment of distributions by the KKR Group PartnershipsPartnership and our other subsidiaries may also be subject to legal, contractual and regulatory restrictions, including restrictions contained in our debt agreements and the terms of the preferred stockunits of the KKR Group Partnerships.Partnership.

Other Liquidity Needs
We may also be required to fund various underwriting, syndication and fronting commitments in our capital markets business in connection with the underwriting of loans, securities or other financial instruments, which has increased in significance in recent periods and may continue to be significant in future periods. We generally expect that these commitments

will be syndicated to third parties or otherwise fulfilled or terminated, although we may in some instances elect to retain a portion of the commitments for our own investment.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of fees, expenses and investment income. Our management bases these estimates and judgments on available information, historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. However, these estimates, judgments and assumptions are often subjective and may be impacted negatively based on changing circumstances or changes in our analyses. If actual amounts are ultimately different from those estimated, judged or assumed, revisions are included in the financial statements in the period in which the actual amounts become known. We believe our critical accounting policies could potentially produce materially different results if we were to change underlying estimates, judgments or assumptions.
The following discusses certain aspects of our critical accounting policies. For a full discussion of these and all critical accounting policies, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. Except for certain of KKR's equity method investments and debt obligations, KKR's investments and other financial instruments are recorded at fair value or at amounts whose carrying values approximate fair value.
GAAP establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring financial instruments at fair value. Investments and financial instruments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed based on the observability of inputs used in the determination of fair values, as follows:
Level I
Pricing inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments included in this category are publicly-listed equities and securities sold short.
We classified 7.4%3.6% of total investments measured and reported at fair value as Level I at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020.
Level II
Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. The types of financial instruments included in this category are credit investments, investments and debt obligations of consolidated CLO entities, convertible debt securities indexed to publicly-listed securities, less liquid and restricted equity securities and certain over-the-counter derivatives such as foreign currency option and forward contracts.
We classified 36.8%39.1% of total investments measured and reported at fair value as Level II at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020.
Level III
Pricing inputs are unobservable for the financial instruments and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial instrument. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. The types of financial instruments generally included in this category are private portfolio companies, real assets investments, credit investments, equity method investments for which the fair value option was elected and investments and debt obligations of consolidated CMBS entities.

Table of Contents


In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
 Level III Valuation Methodologies
With respect to our private equity portfolio, which includes growth equity investments, we generally employ two valuation methodologies when determining the fair value of an investment. The first methodology is typically a market comparables analysis that considers key financial inputs and recent public and private transactions and other available measures. The second methodology utilized is typically a discounted cash flow analysis, which incorporates significant assumptions and judgments. Estimates of key inputs used in this methodology include the weighted average cost of capital for the investment and assumed inputs used to calculate terminal values, such as exit EBITDA multiples. In certain cases the results of the discounted cash flow approach can be significantly impacted by these estimates. Other inputs are also used in both methodologies. Also, as discussed in greater detail under "—Business Environment" and "Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Assets We Manage—Our investments are impacted by various economic conditions that are difficult to quantify or predict, but may have a significant adverse impact on the value of our investments" in this report, a change in interest rates could have a significant impact on valuations. In addition, when a definitive agreement has been executed to sell an investment, KKR generally considers a significant determinant of fair value to be the consideration to be received by KKR pursuant to the executed definitive agreement.
Upon completion of the valuations conducted using these methodologies, a weighting is ascribed to each method, and an illiquidity discount is typically applied where appropriate. The ultimate fair value recorded for a particular investment will generally be within a range suggested by the two methodologies, except that the value may be higher or lower than such range in the case of investments being sold pursuant to an executed definitive agreement.
Across the total Level III private equity investment portfolio (including core investments), and including investments in both consolidated and unconsolidated investment funds, approximately 60% of the fair value is derived from investments that are valued based exactly 50% on market comparables and 50% on a discounted cash flow analysis. Less than 2%3% of the fair value of this Level III private equity investment portfolio is derived from investments that are valued either based 100% on market comparables or 100% on a discounted cash flow analysis. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the overall weights ascribed to the market comparables methodology, the discounted cash flow methodology, and a methodology based on pending sales for this portfolio of Level III private equity investments were 39%41%, 47%50%, and 14%9%, respectively.
In the case of growth equity investments, enterprise values may be determined using the market comparables analysis and discounted cash flow analysis described above. A scenario analysis may also be conducted to subject the estimated enterprise values to a downside, base and upside case, which involves significant assumptions and judgments. A milestone analysis may also be conducted to assess the current level of progress towards value drivers that we have determined to be important, which involves significant assumptions and judgments. The enterprise value in each case may then be allocated across the investment's capital structure to reflect the terms of the security and subjected to probability weightings. In certain cases, the values of growth equity investments may be based on recent or expected financings.
Real asset investments in infrastructure, energy and real estate are valued using one or more of the discounted cash flow analysis, market comparables analysis and direct income capitalization, which in each case incorporates significant assumptions and judgments. Infrastructure investments are generally valued using the discounted cash flow analysis. Key inputs used in this methodology can include the weighted average cost of capital and assumed inputs used to calculate terminal values, such as exit EBITDA multiples. Energy investments are generally valued using a discounted cash flow analysis. Key inputs used in this methodology that require estimates include the weighted average cost of capital. In addition, the valuations of energy investments generally incorporate both commodity prices as quoted on indices and long-term commodity price forecasts, which may be substantially different from, and are currently higher than, commodity prices on certain indices for equivalent future dates. Certain energy investments do not include an illiquidity discount. Long-term commodity price forecasts are utilized to capture the value of the investments across a range of commodity prices within the energy investment portfolio associated with future development and to reflect a range of price expectations. Real estate investments are generally valued using a combination of direct income capitalization and discounted cash flow analysis. Key inputs used in such methodologies that require estimates include an unlevered discount rate and current capitalization rate, and certain real estate investments do not include a minimum illiquidity discount. The valuations of real assets investments also use other inputs.
On a segment basis, our energy real asset investments in oil and gas-producing properties as of June 30, 2019 had a fair value of approximately $656 million. Based on this fair value, we estimate that an immediate, hypothetical 10% decline in the fair value of these energy investments from one or more adverse movements to the investments' valuation inputs would result

121105

Table of Contents


in a decline in book value of $65.6 million. As of June 30, 2019, if we were to value our energy investments using only the commodity prices as quoted on indices and did not use long-term commodity price forecasts, and also held all other inputs to their valuation constant, we estimate that book value would have been approximately $114 million lower.
These hypothetical declines relate only to book value. There would be no current impact on KKR's unrealized carried interest since all of the investment funds which hold these types of energy investments have investment values that are either below their cost or not currently accruing carried interest. Additionally, there would be no impact on fees since fees earned from investment funds which hold investments in oil and gas-producing properties are based on either committed capital or capital invested.
For GAAP purposes, where KKR holds energy investments consisting of working interests in oil and gas-producinggas properties directly and not through an investment fund, such working interests are consolidated based on the proportion of the working interests held by us. Accordingly, we reflect the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, investment income and cash flows of the consolidated working interests on a gross basis and changes in the value of these energy investments are not reflected as unrealized gains and losses in the consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, a change in fair value for these investments does not result in a decrease in net gains (losses) from investment activities, but may result in an impairment charge reflected in general, administrative and other expenses. For segmentnon-GAAP purposes, these directly held working interests are treated as investments and changes in value are reflected in our segmentoperating results as unrealized gains and losses.
On a non-GAAP basis, our energy real asset investments in oil and gas properties as of March 31, 2020 had a fair value of approximately $518 million. Based on this fair value, we estimate that an immediate, hypothetical 10% decline in the fair value of these energy investments from one or more adverse movements to the investments' valuation inputs would result in a decline in book value of $51.8 million. As of March 31, 2020, if we were to value our energy investments using only the commodity prices as quoted on indices and did not use long-term commodity price forecasts, and also held all other inputs to their valuation constant, we estimate that book value would have been approximately $44 million lower.
These hypothetical declines relate only to book value. There would be no current impact on KKR's unrealized carried interest since all of the investment funds which hold these types of energy investments have investment values that are either below their cost or not currently accruing carried interest. Additionally, there would be no impact on fees since fees earned from investment funds which hold investments in oil and gas properties are based on either committed capital or capital invested.
Credit investments are valued using values obtained from dealers or market makers, and where these values are not available, credit investments are generally valued by us based on ranges of valuations determined by an independent valuation firm. Valuation models are based on discounted cash flow analyses, for which the key inputs are determined based on market comparables, which incorporate similar instruments from similar issuers.
There is inherent uncertainty involved in the valuation of Level III investments and there is no assurance that, upon liquidation, KKR will realize the values reflected in our valuations. Our valuations may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material. Furthermore, the recent market volatility caused by COVID-19 and the uncertainty surrounding its full impact have amplified the possibility that our future valuations may materially change from those reflected as of March 31, 2020. See "—Business Environment" for more details on the potential adverse effects of COVID-19 on our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.
Key unobservable inputs that have a significant impact on our Level III investment valuations as described above are included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 5 "Fair Value Measurements" to the financial statements included elsewhere in this report.Measurements."
Level III Valuation Process
The valuation process involved for Level III measurements is completed on a quarterly basis and is designed to subject the valuation of Level III investments to an appropriate level of consistency, oversight, and review.
For Private Markets investments classified as Level III, investment professionals prepare preliminary valuations based on their evaluation of financial and operating data, company specific developments, market valuations of comparable companies and other factors. KKR begins its procedures to determine the fair values of its Level III assets one month prior to the end of a reporting period, and KKR follows additional procedures to ensure that its determinations of fair value for its Level III assets are appropriate as of the relevant reporting date. These preliminary valuations are reviewed by an independent valuation firm engaged by KKR to perform certain procedures in order to assess the reasonableness of KKR's valuations annually for all Level III investments in Private Markets and quarterly for investments other than certain investments, which have values less than preset value thresholds and which in the aggregate comprise less than 5%1% of the total value of KKR's Level III Private Markets investments. The valuations of certain real asset investments are determined solely by an independent valuation firm without the preparation of preliminary valuations by our investment professionals, and instead such independent valuation firm relies on valuation information available to it as a broker or valuation firm. For credit investments and debt obligations of consolidated CMBS vehicles, an independent valuation firm is generally engaged quarterly by KKR with respect to most investments classified as Level III. The valuation firm either provides a value or provides a valuation range from which KKR's investment professionals select a point in the range to determine the preliminary valuation or performs certain procedures in order to assess the reasonableness and provide positive assurance of KKR's valuations. After reflecting any input from the independent valuation firm, the valuation proposals are submitted for review and approval by KKR's valuation committees. As

106

Table of June 30, 2019,Contents


of March 31, 2020, less than 3% of the total value of our Level III credit investments were not valued with the engagement of an independent valuation firm.
KKR has a global valuation committee that is responsible for coordinating and implementing the firm's valuation process to ensure consistency in the application of valuation principles across portfolio investments and between periods. The global valuation committee is assisted by the asset class-specific valuation committees that exist for private equity (including core investments), growth equity, real estate, energy and infrastructure and credit. The asset class-specific valuation committees are responsible for the review and approval of all preliminary Level III valuations in their respective asset classes on a quarterly basis. The members of these valuation committees are comprised of investment professionals, including the heads of each respective strategy, and professionals from business operations functions such as legal, compliance and finance, who are not primarily responsible for the management of the investments. For periods prior to the completion of the PAAMCO Prisma

transaction, when Level III valuations were required to be performed on hedge fund investments, a valuation committee for hedge funds reviewed these valuations.
All Level III valuations are also subject to approval by the global valuation committee, which is comprised of senior employees including investment professionals and professionals from business operations functions, and includes one of KKR's Co-Presidents and Co-Chief Operating Officers and its Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer. When valuations are approved by the global valuation committee after reflecting any input from it, the valuations of Level III investments, as well as the valuations of Level I and Level II investments, are presented to the audit committee of the board of directors of KKR & Co. Inc. and are then reported to the board of directors.
As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, upon completion by, where applicable, an independent valuation firm of certain limited procedures requested to be performed by them on certain investments, the independent valuation firm concluded that the fair values, as determined by KKR, of those investments reviewed by them were reasonable. The limited procedures did not involve an audit, review, compilation or any other form of examination or attestation under generally accepted auditing standards and were not conducted on all Level III investments. We are responsible for determining the fair value of investments in good faith, and the limited procedures performed by an independent valuation firm are supplementary to the inquiries and procedures that we are required to undertake to determine the fair value of the commensurate investments.
There were no changes made to our Level III valuation process as a result of COVID-19.
As described above, Level II and Level III investments were valued using internal models with significant unobservable inputs and our determinations of the fair values of these investments may differ materially from the values that would have resulted if readily observable inputs had existed. Additional external factors may cause those values, and the values of investments for which readily observable inputs exist, to increase or decrease over time, which may create volatility in our earnings and the amounts of assets and stockholders' equity that we report from time to time.
Changes in the fair value of investments impacts the amount of carried interest that is recognized as well as the amount of investment income that is recognized for investments held directly and through our consolidated funds as described below. We estimate that an immediate 10% decrease in the fair value of investments held directly and through consolidated investment funds generally would result in a commensurate change in the amount of net gains (losses) from investment activities for investments held directly and through investment funds and a more significant impact to the amount of carried interest recognized, regardless of whether the investment was valued using observable market prices or management estimates with significant unobservable pricing inputs. With respect to consolidated investment funds, the impact that the consequential decrease in investment income would have on net income attributable to KKR would generally be significantly less than the amount described above, given that a majority of the change in fair value of our consolidated funds would be attributable to noncontrolling interests and therefore we are only impacted to the extent of our carried interest and our balance sheet investments.
As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, there were no investments which represented greater than 5% of total investments on a GAAP basis. On a segmentnon-GAAP basis, as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, investments which represented greater than 5% of total segmentnon-GAAP investments consisted of First Data CorporationFiserv, Inc. and USI, Inc. (financial services sector) valued at $1,579.6$1,415.1 million and $700.1$800.2 million, respectively. On July 29, 2019, shares of First Data Corporation were exchanged into shares of Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ: FISV) in connection with the closing of the merger transaction. Our investment income on a GAAP basis and our book value can be impacted by volatility in the public markets related to our holdings of publicly traded securities, including our sizable holdings of Fiserv, Inc. See "—Business Environment" for a discussion on the impact of global equity markets on our financial condition and "—SegmentNon-GAAP Balance Sheet"Sheet Measures" for additional information regarding our largest holdings on a segmentnon-GAAP basis.

Recognition of Investment Income
Investment income consists primarily of the net impact of: (i) realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments; (ii) dividends; (iii) interest income; (iv) interest expense and (v) foreign exchange gains and losses relating to mark-to-market activity on foreign exchange forward contracts, foreign currency options, foreign denominated debt and debt securities issued by consolidated CFEs.
Certain of our investment funds are consolidated. When a fund is consolidated, the portion of our funds' investment income that is allocable to our carried interests and capital investments is not shown in the consolidated statements of operations. For funds that are consolidated, all investment income (loss), including the portion of a funds' investment income (loss) that is allocable to KKR's carried interest, is included in investment income (loss) on the consolidated statements of operations. The carried interest that KKR retains in net income (loss) attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. is reflected as an adjustment to net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. However, because certain of our funds remain consolidated and because we hold

123

Table of Contents


a minority economic interest in these funds' investments, our share of the investment income is less than the total amount of investment income presented in the consolidated statements of operations for these consolidated funds.
Recognition of Carried Interest in the Statement of Operations
Carried interest entitles the general partner of a fund to a greater allocable share of the fund's earnings from investments relative to the capital contributed by the general partner and correspondingly reduces noncontrolling interests' attributable share of those earnings. Carried interest is earned by the general partner of those funds to the extent that cumulative investment returns are positive and where applicable, preferred return thresholds have been met. If these investment returns decrease or turn negative in subsequent periods, recognized carried interest will be reversed and reflected as losses in the statement of operations. For funds that are not consolidated, amounts earned pursuant to carried interest are included in capital allocation-based income (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations. Amounts earned pursuant to carried interest at consolidated funds are eliminated from fees and other upon consolidation of the fund and are included as investment income (loss) in net gains (losses) from investment activities along with all of the other investment gains and losses at the consolidated fund.
Carried interest is recognized in the statement of operations based on the contractual conditions set forth in the agreements governing the fund as if the fund were terminated and liquidated at the reporting date and the fund's investments were realized at the then estimated fair values. Due to the extended durations of our private equity funds, we believe that this approach results in income recognition that best reflects our periodic performance in the management of those funds. Amounts earned pursuant to carried interest are earned by the general partner of those funds to the extent that cumulative investment returns are positive and where applicable, preferred return thresholds have been met. If these investment amounts earned decrease or turn negative in subsequent periods, recognized carried interest will be reversed and to the extent that the aggregate amount of carry distributions received by the general partner during the term of the fund exceed the amount to which the general partner was ultimately entitled, a clawback obligation would be recorded. For funds that are not consolidated, this clawback obligation, if any, is reflected as a reduction of our investment balance as this is where carried interest is initially recorded. For funds that are consolidated, this clawback obligation, if any, is reflected as an increase in noncontrolling interests in the consolidated statements of financial condition.
Prior to January 1, 2016,2012, most of our historical private equity funds that provide for carried interest do not have a preferred return. For these funds, the management company is required to refund up to 20% of any management fees earned from its limited partners in the event that the fund recognizes carried interest. At such time as the fund recognizes carried interest in an amount sufficient to cover 20% of the management fees earned or a portion thereof, a liability due to the fund's limited partners is recorded and revenue is reduced for the amount of the carried interest recognized, not to exceed 20% of the management fees earned. The refunds to the limited partners are paid, and liabilities relieved, at such time that the underlying investment is sold and the associated carried interest is realized. In the event that a fund's carried interest is not sufficient to cover all or a portion of the amount that represents 20% of the earned management fees, such management fees would be retained and not returned to the funds' limited partners.
Most of our newer investment funds that provide for carried interest and were launched after 2012, however, have a preferred return. In this case, the management company does not refund the management fees earned from the limited partners of the fund as described above. Instead, the management fee is effectively returned to the limited partners through a reduction of the realized gain on which carried interest is calculated. To calculate the carried interest, KKR calculates whether a preferred return has been achieved based on an amount that includes all of the management fees paid by the limited partners as well as the other capital contributions and expenses paid by them to date. To the extent the fund has exceeded the preferred return at the time of

108

Table of Contents


a realization event, and subject to any other conditions for the payment of carried interest like netting holes, carried interest is distributed to the general partner. Until the preferred return is achieved, no carried interest is recorded. Thereafter, the general partner is entitled to a catch up allocation such that the general partner's carried interest is paid in respect of all of the fund's net gains, including the net gains used to pay the preferred return, until the general partner has received the full percentage amount of carried interest that the general partner is entitled to under the terms of the fund. In general, investment funds that entitle the management company to receive an incentive fee have a preferred return and are calculated on a similar basis that takes into account management fees paid.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
Share Repurchases in the SecondFirst Quarter of 20192020
KKR has increased the total available amount under its repurchase program to $500 million. Prior to this increase, there was approximately $119 million remaining under the program as of March 31, 2020.
Under the current repurchase program, KKR is authorized to repurchase its Class A common stock from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing, manner, price and amount of any Class A common stock repurchases will be determined by KKR in its discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. KKR expects that the program, which has no expiration date, will be in effect until the maximum approved dollar amount has been used. The program does not require KKR to repurchase any specific number of shares of Class A common stock, and the program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time.
In addition to the repurchases of Class A common stock described above, subsequent to May 3, 2018, the repurchase program will be used for the retirement (by cash settlement or the payment of tax withholding amounts upon net settlement) of equity awards issued pursuant to our Equity Incentive Plans representing the right to receive shares of Class A common stock. From October 27, 2015 through June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, KKR has paid approximately $289$327 million in cash to satisfy tax withholding and cash settlement obligations in lieu of issuing shares of Class A common stock or its equivalent upon the vesting of equity awards representing 14.916.3 million shares of Class A common stock. Of these amounts, equity awards representing 11.0 million shares of Class A common stock or its equivalent were retired for $190 million prior to May 3, 2018 and did not count against the amounts remaining under the repurchase program.
The table below sets forth the information with respect to repurchases made by or on behalf of KKR & Co. Inc. or any "affiliated purchaser" (as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Exchange Act) of our Class A common stock during the secondfirst quarter of 2019. No2020. 10,209,673 shares of Class A common stock were repurchased during the secondfirst quarter of 20192020 and no equity awards representing 2,273,112 shares of Class A common stock were retired during the secondfirst quarter of 2019.2020. From inception of the repurchase program through June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we have repurchased or retired a total of approximately 44.557.6 million shares of Class A common stock under the program at an average price of approximately $17.06$18.86 per share.

Each non-employee director will continue to receive director compensation under our current director compensation program described in Item 11 of our Annual Report, which disclosure is incorporated herein by reference.

Amendment and Restatement of Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
Effective on May 8, 2020 (the "Effective Date"), we amended and restated our Certificate of Incorporation (as amended and restated, the "Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation"). The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides for an updated forum selection clause which requires that certain claims, suits and actions that may be brought by our stockholders may only be brought in specified U.S. federal and Delaware courts as provided in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. Also in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, our Class A common stock was renamed as "common stock," which has the same rights and powers, including, without limitation, with respect to voting, that our Class A common stock formerly had prior to the Effective Date; our Class B common stock was reclassified into a new "Series I Preferred Stock," which has the same rights and powers that our Class B common stock formerly had prior to the Effective Date; and our Class C common stock was reclassified into a new "Series II Preferred Stock," which has the same rights and powers that our Class C common stock formerly had prior to the Effective Date. In addition, following the conversion of KKR & Co. Inc. from a limited partnership to a corporation on July 1, 2018, certain provisions more customarily found in the bylaws of Delaware corporations were moved from the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to our Bylaws, and certain other provisions that are already provided for under the Delaware General Corporation Law were removed from the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

On the Effective Date, we also amended and restated our Bylaws to add, as noted above, certain provisions previously included in our Certificate of Incorporation relating to quorum, adjournment and the conduct of stockholder meetings, and provisions related to stock certificates, registrations of transfers and maintenance of our books and records.
The full text of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and amended and restated Bylaws are filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, to this report and are incorporated herein by reference. The holder of our Class B common stock consented to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and amended and restated Bylaws on May 8, 2020, and as a result of the elimination of our Class C common stock in connection with its reclassification, the consent of the holder of our Class C common stock to the adoption of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation was received on May 8, 2020. No consent of the holders of the Class A common stock, Series A preferred stock or Series B preferred stock was required.
