Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call emphasized strong fundraising, diversified platform growth, solid investment performance, and modest margin expansion, while acknowledging headline-driven redemption activity, softer retail flows, rising LTVs in software, and some near-term revenue outcome uncertainty. On balance, the business fundamentals — sizable LTM fundraising ($57B), strong LTM returns across strategies, growing real assets and digital infrastructure pipelines, and modest FRE margin expansion — outweigh the contained near-term retail/redemption headwinds and sector-specific valuation risks.Company Guidance
Top-Line and Earnings Growth
Revenues increased 13% year-over-year; fee related earnings (FRE) grew 14% and distributable earnings (DE) rose 11% versus 2025. Reported FRE per share was $0.25 and DE per share was $0.19 for Q1 2026.
Strong Fundraising
Raised $11 billion in Q1 2026 and $57 billion over the last twelve months (second-highest LTM raise since inception). Q1 institutional equity was ~$6.1 billion (two-thirds of total equity raised) and equity capital raised grew 35% year-over-year.
Diversification and AUM Mix Shift
Platform diversification: direct lending now ~37% of AUM, real assets ~27%, and GP strategic capital ~22%. Nearly three-quarters of equity raised over the last 12 months was outside direct lending.
Real Assets and Net Lease Momentum
Real assets AUM reached $85 billion (up 27% year-over-year); net lease AUM up ~38% year-over-year. Net lease pipeline ~ $50 billion under LOI/contract and Net Lease Fund 6 fully committed and two-thirds called (visibility to be virtually fully called by this summer).
Digital Infrastructure Opportunity
Digital infrastructure strategy is ~6% of AUM with a pipeline > $100 billion. Participating in large data center projects, including an announced $12 billion Amazon campus; BODI 4 initial close planned in back half of 2026.
Strong Investment Performance
Direct lending generated 8.5% gross returns LTM; OCIC delivered 9.1% annualized since inception (~5 years), outperforming leveraged loans by >300 bps, high-yield by ~500 bps, and traditional fixed income by ~900 bps. Alternative credit returned 11% LTM (outperforming leveraged loans by >600 bps). Net lease returned 14.7% LTM (outperforming FTSE REIT by ~1,100 bps).
Successful New Fund Closes
Final close of first vintage GP-led secondary strategy (BOSE) above target at ~ $3 billion; ASOP 9 (alternative credit) also closed ~ $3 billion, both closing above targets in the current environment.
Embedded Fee Growth and FRE Margin
AUM not yet paying fees increased to $30 billion, representing ~ $350 million of expected annual management fees when deployed (~14% embedded growth off 2025 management fees). FRE margin modestly expanded to 58.4% in Q1 (vs 58.3% for 2025) and management expects a path to ~58.5% for 2026.
Liquidity / Repayments Driving Reinvestment Opportunities
Direct lending last twelve-month growth was $39.4 billion with net originations of $8.2 billion; repayments were $6.4 billion in Q1 and over $27 billion in 2025, creating deployment opportunities at wider spreads (origination spreads observed ~50 bps wider).
Notable Realized Gains and Recoveries
Examples of portfolio gains (e.g., SpaceX position generated ~10x realized on part of the stake) and strong historical recoveries: average principal recovery in restructurings ~ $0.80 on the dollar and total recovery including coupons ~1.1x–1.2x.
