CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, our operations and financial performance. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believe,” “expect,” “potential,” “continue,” “may,” “should,” “seek,” “approximately,” “predict,” “intend,” “will,” “plan,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” the negative version of these words, other comparable words or other statements that do not relate strictly to historical or factual matters. Forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. We believe these factors include those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this report. These factors should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this report and in our other periodic filings. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

 


 

In this report, references to “KKR,” “we,” “us,” “our” and “our partnership” refer to KKR & Co. L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Prior to KKR & Co. L.P. becoming listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on July 15, 2010, KKR Group Holdings L.P. consolidated the financial results of KKR Management Holdings L.P. and KKR Fund Holdings L.P. (together, the “KKR Group Partnerships”) and their consolidated subsidiaries.

 

References to “our Managing Partner” are to KKR Management LLC, which acts as our general partner and unless otherwise indicated, references to equity interests in KKR’s business, or to percentage interests in KKR’s business, reflect the aggregate equity of the KKR Group Partnerships and are net of amounts that have been allocated to our principals in respect of the carried interest from KKR’s business as part of our “carry pool” and certain minority interests. References to our “principals” are to our senior employees and non-employee operating consultants who hold interests in KKR’s business through KKR Holdings L.P., which we refer to as “KKR Holdings,” and references to our “senior principals” are to principals who also hold interests in our Managing Partner entitling them to vote for the election of its directors.

 

Prior to October 1, 2009, KKR’s business was conducted through multiple entities for which there was no single holding entity, but were under common control of senior KKR principals, and in which senior principals and KKR’s other principals and individuals held ownership interests (collectively, the “Predecessor Owners”). On October 1, 2009, we completed the acquisition of all of the assets and liabilities of KKR & Co. (Guernsey) L.P. (f/k/a KKR Private Equity Investors, L.P. or “KPE”) and, in connection with such acquisition, completed a series of transactions pursuant to which the business of KKR was reorganized into a holding company structure. The reorganization involved a contribution of certain equity interests in KKR’s business that were held by KKR’s Predecessor Owners to the KKR Group Partnerships in exchange for equity interests in the KKR Group Partnerships held through KKR Holdings. We refer to the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of KPE and to our subsequent reorganization into a holding company structure as the “KPE Transaction.”

 

In this report, the term “assets under management,” or “AUM”, represents the assets from which KKR is entitled to receive fees or a carried interest and general partner capital. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into KKR’s capital raising activities and the overall activity in its investment funds and vehicles. 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 plus uncalled capital commitments from these funds; (ii) the fair value of investments in KKR’s co-investment vehicles; (iii) the net asset value of certain of KKR’s fixed income products; (iv) the value of outstanding structured finance vehicles and (v) the fair value of other assets managed by KKR. KKR’s definition of AUM is not based on the definitions of AUM that may be set forth in agreements governing the investment funds, vehicles or accounts that it manages and is not calculated pursuant to any regulatory definitions.

 

In this report, the term “fee paying assets under management,” or “FPAUM”, represents only those assets under management from which KKR receives fees. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the capital base upon which KKR earns management fees. This relates to KKR’s capital raising activities and the overall activity in its investment funds and vehicles, for only those funds and vehicles where KKR receives fees (i.e., excluding vehicles that receive only carried interest or general partner capital). FPAUM is the sum of all of the individual fee bases that are used to calculate KKR’s fees and differs from AUM in the following respects: (i) assets from which KKR does not receive a fee are excluded (i.e., assets with respect to which it receives only carried interest); and (ii) certain assets, primarily in its private equity funds, are reflected based on capital commitments and invested capital as opposed to fair value because fees are not impacted by changes in the fair value of underlying investments.

Table of Contents

 

In this report, the term “fee related earnings,” or “FRE”, is comprised of segment operating revenues less segment operating expenses (other than certain compensation and general and administrative expenses incurred in the generation of net realized principal investment income). This measure is used by management as an alternative measurement of the operating earnings of KKR and its business segments before investment income. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the operating profitability of our fee generating management companies and capital markets businesses. The components of FRE on a segment basis differ from the equivalent GAAP amounts on a consolidated basis as a result of: (i) the inclusion of management fees earned from consolidated funds that were eliminated in consolidation; (ii) the exclusion of fees and expenses of certain consolidated entities; (iii) the exclusion of charges relating to the amortization of intangible assets; (iv) the exclusion of charges relating to carry pool allocations; (v) the exclusion of non-cash equity charges and other non-cash compensation charges borne by KKR Holdings or incurred under the KKR & Co. L.P. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan; (vi) the exclusion of certain reimbursable expenses; and (vii) the exclusion of certain non-recurring items.

 

In this report, the term “economic net income (loss),” or “ENI”, is a measure of profitability for KKR’s reportable segments and is used by management as an alternative measurement of the operating and investment earnings of KKR and its business segments. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the overall profitability of KKR’s businesses inclusive of investment income and carried interest. ENI is comprised of: (i) FRE plus (ii) segment investment income (loss), which is reduced for carry pool allocations, management fee refunds, interest expense and certain compensation and general and administrative expenses incurred in the generation of net realized principal investment income; less (iii) certain economic interests in KKR’s segments held by third parties. ENI differs from net income (loss) on a GAAP basis as a result of: (i) the exclusion of the items referred to in FRE above; (ii) the exclusion of investment income (loss) relating to noncontrolling interests; and (iii) the exclusion of income taxes.

 

In this report, “syndicated capital” is the aggregate amount of debt or equity capital in transactions originated by KKR investment funds and vehicles, which has been distributed to third parties in exchange for a fee. It does not include (i) capital committed to such transactions by carry-yielding co-investment vehicles, which is instead reported in committed dollars invested and (ii) debt capital that is arranged as part of the acquisition financing of transactions originated by KKR investment funds and vehicles. Syndicated capital is used as a measure of investment activity for KKR and its business segments during a given period, and we believe that this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into levels of syndication activity in KKR’s Capital Markets and Principal Activities segment and across its investment platform.

 

You should note that our calculations of AUM, FPAUM, FRE, ENI, syndicated capital and other financial measures may differ from the calculations of other investment managers and, as a result, our measurements of AUM, FPAUM, FRE, ENI, syndicated capital and other financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other investment managers.  For important information regarding these and other financial measures, please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition & Results of Operations—Segment Operating and Performance Measures.”

 

References to “our funds” or “our vehicles” refer to investment funds, vehicles and/or accounts advised, sponsored or managed by one or more subsidiaries of KKR, unless context requires otherwise.

 

In this report, the term “GAAP” refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

 

Unless otherwise indicated, references in this report to our fully diluted common units outstanding, or to our common units outstanding on a fully diluted basis, reflect (i) actual common units outstanding, (ii) common units into which KKR Group Partnership Units not held by us are exchangeable pursuant to the terms of the exchange agreement described in this report and (iii) common units issuable pursuant to any equity awards actually issued under the KKR & Co. L.P. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, which we refer to as our “Equity Incentive Plan,” but do not reflect common units available for issuance pursuant to our Equity Incentive Plan for which grants have not yet been made.

1. ORGANIZATION

 

KKR & Co. L.P. (NYSE:KKR), together with its consolidated subsidiaries (“KKR”), is a leading global investment firm that offers a broad range of investment management services to fund investors and provides capital markets services for the firm, its portfolio companies and third parties. Led by Henry Kravis and George Roberts, KKR conducts business with offices around the world, which provides a global platform for sourcing transactions, raising capital and carrying out capital markets activities. KKR operates as a single professional services firm and carries out its investment activities under the KKR brand name.

 

KKR & Co. L.P. was formed as a Delaware limited partnership on June 25, 2007 and its general partner is KKR Management LLC (the “Managing Partner”). KKR & Co. L.P. is the parent company of KKR Group Limited, which is the non-economic general partner of KKR Group Holdings L.P. (“Group Holdings”), and KKR & Co. L.P. is the sole limited partner of Group Holdings. Group Holdings holds a controlling economic interest in each of (i) KKR Management Holdings L.P. (“Management Holdings”) through KKR Management Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation which is a domestic corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and (ii) KKR Fund Holdings L.P. (“Fund Holdings” and together with Management Holdings, the “KKR Group Partnerships”) directly and through KKR Fund Holdings GP Limited, a Cayman Island limited company which is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Group Holdings also owns certain economic interests in Management Holdings through a wholly owned Delaware corporate subsidiary of KKR Management Holdings Corp. and certain economic interests in Fund Holdings through a Delaware partnership of which Group Holdings is the general partner with a 99% economic interest and KKR Management Holdings Corp. is a limited partner with a 1% economic interest. KKR & Co. L.P., through its indirect controlling economic interests in the KKR Group Partnerships, is the holding partnership for the KKR business.

 

KKR & Co. L.P. both indirectly controls the KKR Group Partnerships and indirectly holds equity units in each KKR Group Partnership (collectively, “KKR Group Partnership Units”) representing economic interests in KKR’s business. The remaining KKR Group Partnership Units are held by KKR’s principals through KKR Holdings L.P. (“KKR Holdings”), which is not a subsidiary of KKR. As of June 30, 2013, KKR & Co. L.P. held 40.3% of the KKR Group Partnership Units and KKR’s principals held 59.7% of the KKR Group Partnership Units through KKR Holdings. The percentage ownership in the KKR Group Partnerships will continue to change as KKR Holdings and/or KKR’s principals exchange units in the KKR Group Partnerships for KKR & Co. L.P. common units.

 

The following table presents the effect of changes in the ownership interest in the KKR Group Partnerships on KKR & Co. L.P.’s equity:

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of KKR & Co. L.P. 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, 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 condensed consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and that estimates made in preparing the condensed consolidated 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, 2012 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements included in KKR’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, which include all disclosures required by GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in KKR & Co. L.P.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements (referred to hereafter as the “financial statements”) include the accounts of KKR’s management and capital markets companies, the general partners of certain unconsolidated funds and vehicles, general partners of consolidated funds and their respective consolidated funds and certain other entities.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

 

(All Dollars are in Thousands, Except Unit, Per Unit Data, and Except Where Noted)

 

 

KKR & Co. L.P. consolidates the financial results of the KKR Group Partnerships and their consolidated subsidiaries. KKR Holdings’ ownership interest in the KKR Group Partnerships is reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying financial statements.

 

References in the accompanying financial statements to KKR’s “principals” are to KKR’s senior employees and non-employee operating consultants who hold interests in KKR’s business through KKR Holdings, including those principals who also hold interests in the Managing Partner entitling those principals to vote for the election of the Managing Partners’ directors (the “Senior Principals”).

 

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 fees, expenses and investment income (loss) during the reporting periods. Such estimates include but are not limited to the valuation of investments and financial instruments. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the financial statements.

 

Consolidation

 

General

 

KKR consolidates (i) those entities in which it holds a majority voting interest or has majority ownership and control over significant operating, financial and investing decisions of the entity, including the KKR funds and vehicles in which KKR, as general partner, is presumed to have control, or (ii) entities determined to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which KKR is considered the primary beneficiary.

 

With respect to KKR’s consolidated funds and vehicles, KKR generally has operational discretion and control, and fund investors have no substantive rights to impact ongoing governance and operating activities of the fund, including the ability to remove the general partner, also known as kick-out rights. As result, a fund should be consolidated unless KKR has a nominal level of equity at risk. To the extent that KKR commits a nominal amount of equity to a given fund and has no obligation to fund any future losses, the equity at risk to KKR is not considered substantive and the fund is typically considered a VIE as described below.  In these cases, the fund investors are generally deemed to be the primary beneficiaries and KKR does not consolidate the fund.  In cases when KKR’s equity at risk is deemed to be substantive, the fund is generally not considered to be a VIE and KKR generally consolidates the fund.

 

KKR’s funds and vehicles are consolidated by KKR notwithstanding the fact that KKR has only a minority economic interest in those funds. KKR’s financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities, fees, expenses, investment income (loss) and cash flows of the consolidated KKR funds and vehicles on a gross basis, and the majority of the economic interests in those funds, which are held by third party fund investors, are attributed to noncontrolling interests in the accompanying financial statements. All of the management fees and certain other amounts earned by KKR from those funds are eliminated in consolidation. However, because the eliminated amounts are earned from, and funded by, noncontrolling interests, KKR’s attributable share of the net income (loss) from those funds is increased by the amounts eliminated. Accordingly, the elimination in consolidation of such amounts has no effect on net income (loss) attributable to KKR or KKR partners’ capital.

 

KKR’s funds and vehicles are, for GAAP purposes, investment companies and therefore are not required to consolidate their investments, including investments in portfolio companies, even if majority-owned and controlled. Rather, the KKR funds and vehicles reflect their investments at fair value as described in the Fair Value Measurements section. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

KKR consolidates all VIEs in which it is considered the primary beneficiary. An enterprise is determined to be the primary beneficiary if it has a controlling financial interest under GAAP. A controlling financial interest is defined as (a) the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s business and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. The consolidation rules which were revised effective January 1, 2010, require an analysis to determine (a) whether an entity in which KKR has a variable interest is a VIE and (b) whether KKR’s involvement, through the holding of equity interests directly or indirectly in the entity or contractually through other variable interests unrelated to the holding of equity interests, would give it a controlling financial interest under GAAP. Performance of that analysis requires the exercise of judgment. Where KKR has an interest in an entity that has qualified for the deferral of the consolidation rules, the analysis is based on consolidation rules prior to January 1, 2010. These rules require an analysis to determine (a) whether an entity in which KKR has a variable interest is a VIE and (b) whether KKR’s involvement, through the holding of equity interests directly or indirectly in the entity or contractually through other variable interests would be expected to absorb a majority of the variability of the entity. Under both guidelines, KKR determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE at the time it becomes involved with a VIE and reconsiders that conclusion at each reporting date. In evaluating whether KKR is the primary beneficiary, KKR evaluates its economic interests in the entity held either directly by KKR or indirectly through related parties. The consolidation analysis can generally be performed qualitatively; however, if it is not readily apparent that KKR is not the primary beneficiary, a quantitative analysis may also be performed. Investments and redemptions (either

by KKR, affiliates of KKR or third parties) or amendments to the governing documents of the respective entities could affect an entity’s status as a VIE or the determination of the primary beneficiary. At each reporting date, KKR assesses whether it is the primary beneficiary and will consolidate or not consolidate accordingly.

 

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the maximum exposure to loss, before allocations to the carry pool, 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:

$

For those unconsolidated VIEs in which KKR is the sponsor, KKR may have an obligation as general partner to provide commitments to such funds. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, KKR did not provide any support other than its obligated amount.

 

KKR’s investment strategies differ by investment fund; however, the fundamental risks have similar characteristics, including loss of invested capital and loss of management fees and carried interests. Accordingly, disaggregation of KKR’s involvement by type of VIE would not provide more useful information.

 

Business Combinations

 

Acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The purchase price of an acquisition is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using the estimated fair values at the acquisition date. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist primarily of contractual rights to earn future fee income, including management and incentive fees, and are included in Other Assets within the statements of financial condition. Identifiable finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and amortization expense is included within General, Administrative and Other in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate an impairment may exist. KKR does not have any indefinite-lived intangible assets.

 

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 will be assessed for impairment annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. Goodwill is recorded in Other Assets within the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.

 

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

 

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests represent noncontrolling interests of certain investment vehicles and funds that are subject to periodic redemption by fund investors following the expiration of a specified period of time (typically between one and three years), or may be withdrawn subject to a redemption fee during the period when capital may not be otherwise withdrawn. Limited partner interests subject to redemption as described above are presented as Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests within the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition and presented as Net Income (Loss) attributable to Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests within the condensed consolidated statements of operations. 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 condensed 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 Equity in the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition as Noncontrolling Interests.

 

Noncontrolling Interests

 

Noncontrolling interests represent (i) noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities and (ii) noncontrolling interests held by KKR Holdings.

 

Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Entities

 

Noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities represent the non-redeemable ownership interests in KKR that are held primarily by:

 

(i)      third party fund investors in KKR’s funds;

(ii)        a former principal and such person’s designees representing an aggregate of 1% of the carried interest received by the general partners of KKR’s funds and 1% of KKR’s other profits (losses) until a future date;

 

(iii)       certain of KKR’s former principals and their designees representing a portion of the carried interest received by the general partners of KKR’s private equity funds that was allocated to them with respect to private equity investments made during such former principals’ previous tenure with KKR;

 

(iv)       certain of KKR’s current and former principals representing all of the capital invested by or on behalf of the general partners of KKR’s private equity funds prior to October 1, 2009 and any returns thereon; and

 

(v)        a third party in KKR’s capital markets business (representing approximately 2% of the equity in the capital markets business).

 

Noncontrolling Interests held by KKR Holdings

 

Noncontrolling interests held by KKR Holdings include economic interests held by KKR’s principals in the KKR Group Partnerships. KKR’s principals receive financial benefits from KKR’s business in the form of distributions received from KKR Holdings and through their direct and indirect participation in the value of KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR Holdings. These financial benefits are not paid by KKR and are borne by KKR Holdings.

(a)       Refer to the table below for calculation of Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests held by KKR Holdings.

 

(b)       Calculated on a pro rata basis based on the weighted average KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR Holdings during the reporting period.

 

(c)        Calculated based on the proportion of KKR Holdings units exchanged for KKR & Co. L.P. common units pursuant to the exchange agreement during the reporting period. The exchange agreement provides for the exchange of KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR Holdings for KKR & Co. L.P. common units.

 

Net income (loss) attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. after allocation to noncontrolling interests held by KKR Holdings, with the exception of certain tax assets and liabilities that are directly allocable to KKR Management Holdings Corp., is attributed based on the percentage of the weighted average KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR and KKR Holdings, each of which hold equity of the KKR Group Partnerships. 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. L.P. common units pursuant to the exchange agreement and (iii) the contribution of certain expenses borne entirely by KKR associated with the KKR & Co. L.P. 2010 Equity Plan (“Equity Incentive Plan”), equity allocations shown in the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity differ from their respective pro-rata ownership interests in KKR’s net assets.

Investments

 

Investments consist primarily of private equity, real assets, fixed income, equity method and other investments. Investments are carried at their estimated fair values, with unrealized gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value reflected as a component of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Investments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar 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 condensed 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.”

 

The following describes the types of securities held within each investment class.

 

Private Equity —Consists primarily of investments in companies with operating businesses.

 

Real Assets —Consists primarily of investments in (i) oil and natural gas properties (“natural resources”), (ii) infrastructure assets, and (iii) residential and commercial real estate assets and businesses (“real estate”).

 

Fixed Income —Consists primarily of investments in below investment grade corporate debt securities (primarily high yield bonds and syndicated bank loans), distressed and opportunistic debt and interests in collateralized loan obligations.

 

Equity Method —Consists primarily of investments in unconsolidated investment funds and vehicles that are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, KKR’s share of earnings (losses) from equity method investments is reflected as a component of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Because the underlying investments of unconsolidated investment funds and vehicles are reported at fair value, the carrying value of KKR’s equity method investments approximates fair value.

 

Other —Consists primarily of investments in common stock, preferred stock, warrants and options of companies that are not private equity, real assets or fixed income investments.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Investments and other financial instruments are measured and carried at fair value. The majority of investments and other financial instruments are held by the consolidated funds and vehicles. KKR’s funds and vehicles are, for GAAP purposes, investment companies and reflect their investments and other financial instruments at fair value. KKR has retained the specialized accounting for the consolidated funds and vehicles in consolidation. Accordingly, the unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of the investments held by KKR’s funds and vehicles are reflected as a component of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

For investments and other financial instruments that are not held in a consolidated fund or vehicle, KKR has elected the fair value option since these investments and other financial instruments are similar to those in the consolidated funds and vehicles. Such election is irrevocable and is applied on an investment by investment basis at initial recognition. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value are reflected as a component of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The methodology for measuring the fair value of such investments and other financial instruments is consistent with the methodologies applied to investments and other financial instruments that are held in consolidated funds and vehicles.

 

The carrying amounts of Other Assets, Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities recognized on the statements of financial condition (excluding Fixed Assets, Goodwill, Intangible Assets, contingent consideration and certain debt obligations) approximate fair value due to their short term maturities. Further information on Fixed Assets is presented in Note 7, “Other Assets and Accounts Payable,

Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities”. Further information on Goodwill and Intangible Assets is presented in Note 14 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets.” Further information on contingent consideration is presented in Note 13 “Acquisitions.” KKR’s debt obligations, except for KKR’s 2020 and 2043 Senior Notes, bear interest at floating rates and therefore fair value approximates carrying value.  Further information on KKR’s 2020 and 2043 Senior Notes are presented in Note 8, “Debt Obligations.” The fair value for KKR’s 2020 and 2043 Senior Notes were derived using Level II inputs similar to those utilized in valuing fixed income investments.

 

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. 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. See Note 5, “Fair Value Measurements” for further information on KKR’s valuation techniques that involve unobservable inputs. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the statements of financial condition are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. Hierarchical levels, as defined under GAAP, are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to the valuation of these assets and liabilities. The hierarchical levels defined under GAAP are as follows:

 

Level I

 

Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. The type of investments and other financial instruments included in this category are publicly-listed equities and debt and securities sold short.

 

Level II

 

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level II inputs include quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. The type of investments and other financial instruments included in this category are fixed income investments, convertible debt securities indexed to publicly-listed securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives.

 

Level III

 

Inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The types of assets and liabilities generally included in this category are private portfolio companies, real assets investments and fixed income investments for which a sufficiently liquid trading market does not exist.

 

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 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.

 

Level II Valuation Methodologies

 

Financial assets and liabilities categorized as Level II consist primarily of securities indexed to publicly-listed securities and fixed income and other investments. Fixed income investments 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 asset. Ask prices represent the lowest price that KKR and others are willing to accept for an asset. For financial assets and liabilities 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

KKR & CO. L.P.

to the point within the bid-ask range that meets KKR’s best estimate of fair value. For securities indexed to publicly listed securities, such as convertible debt, the 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.

 

Level III Valuation Methodologies

 

Financial assets and liabilities categorized as Level III consist primarily of the following:

 

Private Equity Investments: KKR generally employs two 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. Other inputs are also used.

 

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.

 

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 and the expected hold period and manner of realization for the investment. 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. Across the Level III private equity investment portfolio, approximately 90% 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 5% of the fair value of the 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.

 

When determining the illiquidity discount to be applied, KKR takes 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 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 we hold 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.

 

Real Assets Investments: For natural resources and infrastructure investments, KKR generally utilizes 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. For real estate investments, KKR generally utilizes a combination of direct income capitalization and discounted cash flow analysis, which incorporates significant assumptions and judgments. Estimates of key inputs used in these methodologies include an unlevered discount rate and terminal capitalization rate. The valuations of real assets investments also use other inputs. Certain investments in real estate and natural resources generally do not include a minimum illiquidity discount.

 

Fixed Income Investments: Fixed income investments are valued using values obtained from dealers or market makers, and where these values are not available, fixed income investments are valued by KKR using internally developed valuation models. 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.

Other Investments: KKR generally employs the same valuation methodologies as described above for private equity investments when valuing these other investments.

 

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.

 

Level III Valuation Process

 

The valuation process involved for Level III measurements for private equity, real assets, fixed income, and other investments 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. KKR has a Private Markets valuation committee for private equity and real assets investments and a valuation committee for fixed income and other investments. The Private Markets valuation committee may be assisted by subcommittees for example in the valuation of real estate investments. Each of the Private Markets valuation committee and the fixed income valuation committee is assisted by a valuation team, which, except as noted below, is comprised only of employees who are not investment professionals responsible for preparing preliminary valuations or for oversight of any of the investments being valued. The valuation teams for natural resources, infrastructure and real estate investments contain investment professionals who participate in the preparation of preliminary valuations and oversight for those investments. The valuation committees and teams are responsible for coordinating and consistently implementing KKR’s quarterly valuation policies, guidelines and processes. For 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. These preliminary valuations are reviewed with the investment professionals by the applicable valuation team and are also reviewed by an independent valuation firm engaged by KKR to perform certain procedures in order to assess the reasonableness of KKR’s valuations for all Level III investments, except for certain investments other than KKR private equity investments. All preliminary valuations are then reviewed by the applicable valuation committee, and after reflecting any input by their respective valuation committees, the preliminary valuations are presented to a single committee consisting of Senior Principals involved in various aspects of the KKR business. When these valuations are approved by this single 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 KKR’s board of directors and are then reported on to the board of directors.

 

Derivatives

 

Derivative contracts include forward, swap and option contracts related to foreign currencies and credit standing of reference entities to manage foreign exchange risk and credit 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 gross in the condensed 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 condensed 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 minimize this risk by limiting its counterparties to major financial institutions with strong credit ratings.

 

Fees

 

Fees consist primarily of (i) monitoring and consulting fees from providing advisory and other services, (ii) management and incentive fees from providing investment management services to unconsolidated funds, a specialty finance company, structured finance and other vehicles, and separately managed accounts, and (iii) transaction fees earned in connection with successful investment transactions and from capital markets activities. 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.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Disclosures About Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

 

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (“ASU 2011-11”), which requires entities to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements of financial instruments and derivative instruments. In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, which clarifies which instruments and transactions are subject to the offsetting disclosure requirements established by ASU 2011-11. ASU 2011-11 was effective for KKR’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013 and was applied retrospectively.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on KKR’s financial statements.

 

Disclosures About Reclassification Adjustments Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

 

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”),” which requires entities to disclose additional information about reclassification adjustments, including: (i) changes in AOCI balances by component and (ii) significant items reclassified out of AOCI. ASU 2013-02 was effective for KKR’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance, which is related to disclosure only, did not have a material impact on KKR’s financial statements. With respect to KKR, AOCI is comprised of only one component, foreign currency translation adjustments and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, there were no items reclassified out of AOCI. See KKR’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income and changes in equity.

 

Foreign Currency Matters

 

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, “Foreign Currency Matters,” which indicates that the entire amount of a cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) related to an entity’s investment in a foreign entity should be released when there has been a (i) sale of a subsidiary or group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity, (ii) loss of a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity, or (iii) step acquisition for a foreign entity.  This guidance is effective for KKR’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2014, and is to be applied prospectively. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on KKR’s financial statements.

 

Amendments to Investment Company Scope, Measurement, and Disclosures

 

In June 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-08, Financial Services — Investment Companies Topic 946 (“ASU 2013-08”) which amends the scope, measurement, and disclosure requirements for investment companies. ASU 2013-08 (i) amends the criteria for an entity to qualify as an investment company, (ii) requires an investment company to measure noncontrolling ownership interests in other investment companies at fair value rather than using the equity method of accounting, and (iii) introduces new disclosures. This guidance is effective for KKR’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2014. Earlier application is prohibited. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on KKR’s financial results and consolidated financial statements.

3. NET GAINS (LOSSES) FROM INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES

 

Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the condensed 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 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively:

In the table above, other investments represents private equity investments in the following industries: Education, Financial Services, Forestry, Consumer Products, Media, Services, Telecommunications, Transportation and Recycling. None of these industries represents more than 10% of total private equity investments as of June 30, 2013.

 

The majority of the securities underlying private equity investments represent equity securities. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair value of investments that were other than equity securities amounted to $537.3 million and $364.5 million, respectively.

 

Equity Method

 

Equity method investments include certain investments in private equity and real assets funds, funds of hedge funds, and alternative credit funds, which are not consolidated, but in which KKR is deemed to exert significant influence for accounting purposes.  See Note 3 “Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities” for the net changes in fair value associated with these investments.

 

KKR evaluates each of its equity method investments to determine if any were significant as defined by guidance from the United States SEC. As of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, KKR’s equity method investments did not meet the significance criteria either on an individual or group basis. As such, presentation of separate financial statements for any of its equity method investments or summarized financial information on an individual or group basis is not required.

In the table above, other investments, within private equity investments, represents the following industries:  Education, Financial Services, Forestry, Media, Services, Telecommunications, Transportation and Recycling. None of these industries represents more than 10% of total Level III private equity investments as of June 30, 2013.

 


(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. 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. The opposite would be true if the market comparables approach results in a lower valuation than the discounted cash flow approach.

 

(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. The opposite would be true if the discounted cash flow approach results in a lower valuation than the market comparables approach.

 

(6)                           Ranges shown exclude inputs relating to a single portfolio company that was determined to lack comparability with other investments in KKR’s private equity portfolio. This portfolio company had a fair value representing less than 0.5% of the total fair value of Private Equity Investments and had an Enterprise Value/LTM EBITDA Multiple and Enterprise Value/Forward EBITDA Multiple of 24x and 19x, respectively. The exclusion of this investment does not impact the weighted average.

 

(7)                           Level III private equity investments whose valuations include a control premium represent less than 3% of total Level III private equity investments. The valuations for the remaining investments do not include a control premium.

 

(8)                           Amounts include $130.7 million of investments that were valued using dealer quotes or third party valuation firms.

 

(9)                           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.

 

The table above excludes Other Investments in the amount of $184.2 million comprised primarily of privately-held equity and equity-like securities (e.g. warrants) in companies that are neither private equity, real assets nor fixed income investments. These investments were valued using Level III valuation methodologies that are generally the same as those shown for private equity investments.

 

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.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, KKR Holdings units have been excluded from the calculation of diluted Net Income (Loss) attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. per common unit since the exchange of these units would proportionally increase KKR & Co. L.P.’s interests in the KKR Group Partnerships and would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per common unit as a result of certain tax benefits KKR & Co. L.P. is assumed to receive upon the exchange.

 

Diluted Net Income (Loss) attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. per common unit includes unvested equity awards that have been granted under the Equity Incentive Plan since these equity awards dilute KKR and KKR Holdings pro rata in accordance with their respective ownership interests in the KKR Group Partnerships.

2043 Senior Notes

 

On February 1, 2013, KKR Group Finance Co. II LLC, a subsidiary of KKR Management Holdings Corp., issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Notes (the “2043 Senior Notes”), which were issued at a price of 98.856%. The 2043 Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of KKR Group Finance Co. II LLC and will mature on February 1, 2043, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. The 2043 Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by KKR & Co. L.P. and the KKR Group Partnerships. The guarantees are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the guarantors.

 

The 2043 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.50% per annum, accruing from February 1, 2013. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing on August 1, 2013. Interest expense on the 2043 Senior Notes totaled $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

 

The indenture, as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture, relating to the 2043 Senior Notes includes covenants, including limitations on KKR Group Finance Co. II LLC and the guarantors’ ability to, subject to exceptions, incur indebtedness secured by liens on voting stock or profit participating equity interests of their subsidiaries or merge, consolidate or sell, transfer or lease assets. The indenture, as supplemented, also provides for events of default and further provides that the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2043 Senior Notes may declare the 2043 Senior Notes immediately due and payable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any event of default after expiration of any applicable grace period. In the case of specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or reorganization, the principal amount of the 2043 Senior Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest on the 2043 Senior Notes automatically becomes due and payable. All or a portion of the 2043 Senior Notes may be redeemed at the issuer’s option in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, prior to their stated maturity, at the make-whole redemption price set forth in the 2043 Senior Notes. If a change of control repurchase event occurs, the 2043 Senior Notes are subject to repurchase by the issuer at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2043 Senior Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the 2043 Senior Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

 

Investment Financing Arrangements

 

In March 2013, a KKR investment vehicle entered into a $75.0 million multi-currency three-year revolving credit agreement that bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.60% (the “Special Situations Investment Credit Agreement”). As of June 30, 2013, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Special Situations Investment Credit Agreement. This financing arrangement is non-recourse to KKR beyond the specific capital commitments pledged as collateral.

9. INCOME TAXES

 

The consolidated entities of KKR are generally treated as partnerships or disregarded entities for U.S. and non-U.S. tax purposes.  However, certain consolidated subsidiaries are treated as corporations for U.S. and non-U.S tax purposes and are therefore subject to U.S. federal, state and/or local income taxes and/or non- U.S. taxes at the entity-level. In addition, certain consolidated entities which are treated as partnerships for U.S. tax purposes are subject to the New York City Unincorporated Business Tax or other local taxes.

 

The effective tax rate was 2.98% and 0.73% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively and 0.75% and 0.63% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, primarily due to the following: (a) a substantial portion of the reported net income (loss) before taxes is attributable to noncontrolling interests held in consolidated entities or KKR Holdings, (b) a significant portion of the amount of the reported net income (loss) before taxes attributable to KKR is from certain subsidiaries that are not subject to U.S. federal, state or local income taxes and/or non- U.S. taxes, and (c) certain compensation charges attributable to KKR are not deductible for tax purposes.

 

During the three and six month period ending June 30, 2013, 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.

KKR Holdings Equity Awards—Principal Awards

 

KKR principals and certain non-employee consultants and service providers received grants of KKR Holdings units (“Principal Awards”) which are exchangeable for KKR Group Partnership Units. These units are generally subject to minimum retained ownership requirements and in certain cases, transfer restrictions, and allow for their exchange into common units of KKR & Co. L.P. on a one-for-one basis. As of June 30, 2013, KKR Holdings owned approximately 59.7%, or 411,960,931, of the outstanding KKR Group Partnership Units.

 

Except for any Principal Awards that vested on the date of grant, Principal Awards are subject to service based vesting, generally over a three to five year period from the date of grant. The transfer restriction period will generally last for a minimum of (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, these individuals may also be subject to minimum retained ownership rules requiring them to continuously hold 25% of their vested interests. Upon separation from KKR, certain individuals will be subject to the terms of a non-compete agreement that may require the forfeiture of certain vested and unvested units should the terms of the non-compete agreement be violated. Holders of KKR Group Partnership Units held through KKR Holdings are not entitled to participate in distributions made on KKR Group Partnership Units until such units are vested.

 

Because KKR Holdings is a partnership, all of the 411,960,931 KKR Holdings units have been legally allocated, but the allocation of 30,418,417 of these units has not been communicated to each respective principal. The units that have not been communicated are subject to performance based vesting conditions, which include profitability and other similar criteria. These criteria are not sufficiently specific to constitute performance conditions for accounting purposes, and the achievement, or lack thereof, will be determined based upon the exercise of judgment by the general partner of KKR Holdings. Each principal will ultimately receive between zero and 100% of the units initially allocated. The allocation of these units has not yet been communicated to the award recipients as this was management’s decision on how to best incentivize its principals. It is anticipated that additional service-based vesting conditions will be imposed at the time the allocation is initially communicated to the respective principals. KKR applied the guidance of Accounting Standards Code (“ASC”) 718 and concluded that these KKR Holdings units do not yet meet the criteria for recognition of compensation cost because neither the grant date nor the service inception date has occurred. In reaching a conclusion that the service inception date has not occurred, KKR considered (a) the fact that the vesting conditions are not sufficiently specific to constitute performance conditions for accounting purposes, (b) the significant judgment that can be exercised by the general partner of KKR Holdings in determining whether the vesting conditions are ultimately achieved, and (c) the absence of communication to the principals of any information related to the number of units they were initially allocated. The allocation of these units will be communicated to the award recipients when the performance-based vesting conditions have been met, and currently there is no plan as to when the communication will occur. The determination as to whether the award recipients have satisfied the performance-based

vesting conditions is made by the general partner of KKR Holdings, and is based on multiple factors primarily related to the award recipients’ individual performance.

 

The fair value of Principal Awards is based on the closing price of KKR & Co. L.P. common units on the date of grant. KKR determined this to be the best evidence of fair value as a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit 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 a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit. Specifically, units in both KKR Holdings and KKR & Co. L.P. represent ownership interests in KKR Group Partnership Units and, subject to any vesting, minimum retained ownership requirements and transfer restrictions referenced above, each KKR Holdings unit is exchangeable into a KKR Group Partnership Unit and then into a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit on a one-for-one basis.

 

Principal Awards give rise to equity-based payment charges in the condensed consolidated statements of operations based on the grant-date fair value of the award. For units vesting on the grant date, expense is recognized on the date of grant based on the fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit on the grant date multiplied by the number of vested units. Equity-based payment expense on unvested units is calculated based on the fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit at the time of grant, discounted for the lack of participation rights in the expected distributions on unvested units which currently ranges from 7% to 52%, multiplied by the number of unvested units on the grant date. The grant date fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit reflects a discount for lack of distribution participation rights because equity awards are not entitled to receive distributions while unvested. The discount range was based on management’s estimates of future distributions that unvested equity awards will not be entitled to receive between the grant date and the vesting date. Therefore, units that vest in earlier periods have a lower discount as compared to units that vest in later periods, which have a higher discount. The discount range will generally increase when the level of expected annual distributions increases relative to the grant date fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit. A decrease in expected annual distributions relative to the grant date fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit would generally have the opposite effect.

 

Principal Awards granted to certain non-employee consultants and service providers give rise to general, administrative and other charges in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. For units vesting on the grant date, expense is recognized on the date of grant based on the fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit on the grant date multiplied by the number of vested units. General, administrative and other expense recognized on unvested units is calculated based on the fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit on each reporting date and subsequently adjusted for the actual fair value of the award at each vesting date. Accordingly, the measured value of these units will not be finalized until each vesting date.

 

The calculation of equity-based payment expense and general administrative and other expense on unvested Principal Awards assumes forfeiture rates of up to 4% annually based upon expected turnover by class of principal, consultant, or service provider.

 

As of June 30, 2013, there was approximately $98.0 million of estimated unrecognized equity-based payment and general administrative and other expense related to unvested Principal Awards. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.7 years, using the graded attribution method, which treats each vesting portion as a separate award.

KKR Holdings Equity Awards—Restricted Equity Units

 

Grants of restricted equity units based on KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR Holdings were made to professionals, support staff, and other personnel (“Holdings REU Awards”). These grants will be funded by KKR Holdings and will not dilute KKR’s interests in the KKR Group Partnerships. The vesting of these Holdings REU Awards occur in installments, generally over a three to five year period from the date of grant. Holdings REU Awards are measured and recognized on a basis similar to Principal Awards except that the fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit at the time of grant is not discounted for the lack of distribution participation rights since unvested units are entitled to distributions. The calculation assumes a forfeiture rate of up to 4% annually based upon expected turnover by class of professionals, support staff, and other personnel.

 

As of June 30, 2013, there was approximately $2.4 million of estimated unrecognized expense related to unvested awards. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.7 years, using the graded attribution method, which treats each vesting portion as a separate award.

KKR & Co. L.P. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan

 

Under the Equity Incentive Plan, KKR is permitted to grant equity awards representing ownership interests in KKR & Co. L.P. common units. Vested awards under the Equity Incentive Plan dilute KKR & Co. L.P. common unitholders and KKR Holdings pro rata in accordance with their respective percentage interests in the KKR Group Partnerships.

 

The total number of common units that may be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan is equivalent to 15% of the number of fully diluted common units outstanding, subject to annual adjustment. As of June 30, 2013, equity awards relating to 33,063,255 KKR & Co. L.P. common units have been granted under the Equity Incentive Plan and are subject to service based vesting, which vest generally over a three to five year period from the date of grant. In certain cases, these awards are subject to transfer restrictions and 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 recipients are also subject to minimum retained ownership rules requiring them to continuously hold common unit equivalents equal to at least 15% of their cumulatively vested interests.

 

Expense associated with the vesting of these awards is based on the closing price of the KKR & Co. L.P. common units on the date of grant, discounted for the lack of participation rights in the expected distributions on unvested units, which currently ranges from 7% to 52% multiplied by the number of unvested units on the grant date. The grant date fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit reflects a discount for lack of distribution participation rights because equity awards are not entitled to receive distributions while unvested. The discount range was based on management’s estimates of future distributions that unvested equity awards will not be entitled to receive between the grant date and the vesting date. Therefore, units that vest in earlier periods have a lower discount as compared to units that vest in later periods, which have a higher discount. The discount range will generally increase when the level of expected annual distributions increases relative to the grant date fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit. A decrease in expected annual distributions relative to the grant date fair value of a KKR & Co. L.P. common unit would generally have the opposite effect. Expense is recognized on a straight line basis over the life of the award and assumes a forfeiture rate of up to 4% annually based upon expected turnover by class of recipient.

 

As of June 30, 2013, there was approximately $204.6 million of estimated unrecognized expense related to unvested awards. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.4 years, using the straight line method.

Discretionary Compensation

 

All KKR principals and other employees of certain consolidated entities are eligible to receive discretionary cash bonuses. While cash bonuses paid to most employees are borne by KKR and certain consolidated entities and result in customary compensation and benefits expense, cash bonuses that are paid to certain of KKR’s principals are currently 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 are recorded based on the unvested portion of quarterly earnings distributions received by KKR Holdings at the time of the distribution.

KFN

 

KFN is a publicly traded specialty finance company whose limited liability company interests are listed on the NYSE under the symbol “KFN.” KFN is managed by KKR but is not consolidated by KKR. KFN was organized in August 2004 and completed its initial public offering on June 24, 2005. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, KFN had consolidated assets of $8.7 billion and $8.4 billion, respectively, and shareholders’ equity of $2.5 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively. There were no shares of KFN held by KKR as of June 30, 2013. Shares of KFN held by KKR represented less than 0.1% of KFN’s outstanding shares as of December 31, 2012. If KKR were to exercise all of its outstanding vested options, KKR’s ownership interest in KFN would be 0.30% and 0.35% of KFN’s outstanding shares as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

 

Discretionary Investments

 

Certain of KKR’s investment professionals, including its principals and other qualifying employees, are permitted to invest, and have invested, their own capital in side-by-side investments with KKR’s investment vehicles. Side-by-side investments are made on the same terms and conditions as those acquired by the applicable investment vehicle, except that the side-by-side investments are not subject to management fees, incentive fees or a carried interest. The cash invested by these individuals aggregated $68.7 million and $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively and $130.4 million and $54.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Aircraft and Other Services

 

Certain of the Senior Principals own aircraft that KKR uses for business purposes in the ordinary course of its operations. These Senior Principals paid for the purchase of these aircraft with personal funds and bear all operating, personnel and maintenance costs associated with their operation. The hourly rates that KKR pays for the use of these aircraft are based on current market rates for chartering private aircraft of the same type. KKR incurred $0.5 million and $1.1 million for the use of these aircraft for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively and $1.4 million and $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Facilities

 

Certain trusts, whose beneficiaries include children of Mr. Kravis and Mr. Roberts, and certain other Senior Principals who are not executive officers of KKR, are partners in a real-estate based partnership that maintains an ownership interest in KKR’s Menlo Park location. Payments made to this partnership were $1.8 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively and $3.6 million and $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

12. SEGMENT REPORTING

 

KKR operates through three reportable business segments. These segments, which are differentiated primarily by their investment objectives and strategies, consist of the following:

 

Private Markets

 

Through the Private Markets segment, KKR manages and sponsors a group of private equity funds and co-investment vehicles that invest capital for long-term appreciation, either through controlling ownership of a company or strategic minority positions. KKR also manages and sources investments in real assets like infrastructure, natural resources and real estate.  These investment funds, vehicles and accounts are managed by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P., an SEC registered investment adviser.

 

Public Markets

 

Through the Public Markets segment, KKR manages KKR Financial Holdings LLC, or KFN, which is a specialty finance company, as well as a number of investment funds, structured finance vehicles and separately managed accounts that invest capital in (i) leveraged credit strategies, such as leveraged loans and high yield bonds, (ii) liquid long/short equity strategies, (iii) alternative credit strategies such as mezzanine investments, special situations investments and direct senior lending and (iv) hedge funds solutions. These funds, vehicles and accounts, including three investment management companies registered under the 1940 Act, are managed by KKR Asset Management LLC, or KAM, and Prisma Capital Partners LP, or Prisma. Both KAM and Prisma are SEC registered investment advisers.

 

Capital Markets and Principal Activities

 

The Capital Markets and Principal Activities segment combines KKR’s principal assets with its global capital markets business. KKR’s capital markets business supports the firm, its portfolio companies and select third parties by providing tailored capital markets advice and by developing and implementing both traditional and non-traditional capital solutions for investments and companies seeking financing. KKR’s capital markets services include arranging debt and equity financing for transactions, placing and underwriting securities offerings, structuring new investment products and providing capital markets services. KKR’s principal asset base primarily includes investments in its private equity and real assets funds, co-investments in certain portfolio companies of such private equity funds, general partner interests in various KKR-sponsored investment funds, and other principal assets.

 

Key Performance Measures

 

The segment key performance measures that follow are used by management in making operating and resource deployment decisions as well as assessing the overall performance of each of KKR’s reportable business segments. The reportable segments for KKR’s business are presented prior to giving effect to the allocation of income (loss) between KKR & Co. L.P. and KKR Holdings and as such represents the business in total. In addition, KKR’s reportable segments are presented without giving effect to the consolidation of the funds that KKR manages.

 

FRE

 

FRE is comprised of segment operating revenues less segment operating expenses (other than certain compensation and general and administrative expenses incurred in the generation of net realized principal investment income). This measure is used by management as an alternative measurement of the operating earnings of KKR and its business segments before investment income. The components of FRE on a segment basis differ from the equivalent GAAP amounts on a consolidated basis as a result of: (i) the inclusion of management fees earned from consolidated funds that were eliminated in consolidation; (ii) the exclusion of fees and expenses of certain consolidated entities; (iii) the exclusion of charges relating to the amortization of intangible assets; (iv) the exclusion of charges relating to carry pool allocations; (v) the exclusion of non-cash equity charges and other non-cash compensation charges borne by KKR Holdings or incurred under the KKR & Co. L.P. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan; (vi) the exclusion of certain reimbursable expenses; and (vii) the exclusion of certain non-recurring items.

ENI is a measure of profitability for KKR’s reportable segments and is used by management as an alternative measurement of the operating and investment earnings of KKR and its business segments. ENI is comprised of: (i) FRE plus (ii) segment investment income (loss), which is reduced for carry pool allocations, management fee refunds, interest expense and certain compensation and general and administrative expenses incurred in the generation of net realized principal investment income; less (iii) certain economic interests in KKR’s

segments held by third parties. ENI differs from net income (loss) on a GAAP basis as a result of: (i) the exclusion of the items referred to in FRE above; (ii) the exclusion of investment income (loss) relating to noncontrolling interests; and (iii) the exclusion of income taxes.

 

Book Value

 

Book Value is a measure of the net assets of KKR’s reportable segments and is used by management primarily in assessing the unrealized value of KKR’s investment portfolio, including carried interest, as well as KKR’s overall liquidity position. Book value differs from KKR & Co. L.P. Partners’ Capital on a GAAP basis primarily as a result of the exclusion of ownership interests attributable to KKR Holdings.

(1)         KKR’s agreements with the fund investors of certain of its investment funds require KKR to share with these fund investors an agreed upon percentage of monitoring and transaction fees received from portfolio companies (“Fee Credits”). Fund investors receive 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 fund-related expenses and generally amount to 80% of allocable monitoring and transaction fees after fund-related

expenses are recovered, although the actual percentage may vary from fund to fund as well as among different classes of investors within a fund.

 

(2)         With respect to KKR’s active and future investment funds and co-investment vehicles that provide for carried interest, KKR will allocate to its principals, other professionals and selected other individuals a portion of the carried interest earned in relation to these funds as part of its carry pool.

 

(3)         Certain of KKR’s private equity funds require the management company to refund up to 20% of any cash management fees earned from fund investors in the event that the funds recognize a carried interest. At such time as the fund recognizes a carried interest in an amount sufficient to cover 20% of the cash management fees earned or a portion thereof, a liability to the fund investors is recorded and revenue is reduced for the amount of the carried interest recognized, not to exceed 20% of the cash management fees earned. As of June 30, 2013, there is no carried interest subject to management fee refunds, which may reduce carried interest in future periods. The refunds to the fund investors are paid, and the liabilities relieved, at such time that the underlying investments are sold and the associated carried interests are realized. In the event that a fund’s carried interest is not sufficient to cover any of the amount that represents 20% of the cash management fees earned, these fees would not be returned to the fund investors, in accordance with the respective fund agreements.

 

(4)         Represents economic interests that will (i) allocate to a former principal an aggregate of 1% of profits and losses of KKR’s management companies until a future date and (ii) allocate to a third party investor approximately 2% of the profits and losses in KKR’s capital markets business.

(1)                     KKR’s agreements with the fund investors of certain of its investment funds require KKR to share with these fund investors an agreed upon percentage of monitoring and transaction fees received from portfolio companies. Fund investors receive 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 fund-related expenses and generally amount to 80% of allocable monitoring and transaction fees after fund-related expenses are recovered, although the actual percentage may vary from fund to fund as well as among different classes of investors within a fund.

(2)                     With respect to KKR’s active and future investment funds and co-investment vehicles that provide for carried interest, KKR will allocate to its principals, other professionals and selected other individuals a portion of the carried interest earned in relation to these funds as part of its carry pool.

 

(3)                     Certain of KKR’s private equity funds require the management company to refund up to 20% of any cash management fees earned from fund investors in the event that the funds recognize a carried interest. At such time as the fund recognizes a carried interest in an amount sufficient to cover 20% of the cash management fees earned or a portion thereof, a liability to the fund’s fund investors is recorded and revenue is reduced for the amount of the carried interest recognized, not to exceed 20% of the cash management fees earned. As of June 30, 2013, there is no carried interest subject to management fee refunds, which may reduce carried interest in future periods. The refunds to the fund investors are paid, and the liabilities relieved, at such time that the underlying investments are sold and the associated carried interests are realized. In the event that a fund’s carried interest is not sufficient to cover any of the amount that represents 20% of the cash management fees earned, these fees would not be returned to the fund investors, in accordance with the respective fund agreements.

 

(4)                     Represents economic interests that will (i) allocate to a former principal an aggregate of 1% of profits and losses of KKR’s management companies until a future date and (ii) allocate to a third party investor approximately 2% of the profits and losses in KKR’s capital markets business.

13. ACQUISITIONS

 

Prisma Capital Partners

 

On October 1, 2012, KKR acquired all of the equity interests of Prisma Capital Partners LP (“Prisma”). Prisma is a provider of customized hedge fund solutions mainly through the management of funds of hedge fund portfolios. The addition of Prisma provides KKR with a funds of hedge fund strategy and a greater presence in the hedge funds space, from which KKR can create and offer more liquid products for KKR’s fund investors.

 

Initial consideration transferred was $200.0 million in cash, and KKR may become obligated to make future additional payments (referred to hereafter as “contingent consideration”) to the sellers (certain of whom became employees of KKR) in years 2014 and 2017 based on the Prisma business achieving certain performance metrics when measured in such years. KKR has the right in its sole discretion to pay a portion of the contingent consideration, if any, in KKR & Co. L.P. common units rather than in cash. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration subsequent to the acquisition date are recognized within General, Administrative and Other in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

As of June 30, 2013, the fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated to be $86.9 million and is recorded as a liability within Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. The fair value of the contingent consideration was derived using Level III inputs. This amount was determined based on the present value of a range of undiscounted cash flows of $0 to $155.0 million in each of 2014 and 2017, using a discount rate ranging from 2.1% to 3.1%, after applying probability, risk-weighting, and other adjustments that KKR has determined to be applicable.

14. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill from the acquisition of Prisma represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired and is primarily attributed to synergies expected to arise after the acquisition. The carrying value of goodwill was $89.0 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and is recorded within Other Assets on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. This goodwill has been allocated entirely to the Public Markets segment. As of June 30, 2013, the fair value of KKR’s reporting units substantially exceeded their respective carrying values. All of the goodwill is currently expected to be deductible for tax purposes. See Note 7 “Other Assets and Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities.”

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Debt Covenants

 

Borrowings of KKR contain various debt covenants. These covenants do not, in management’s opinion, materially restrict KKR’s investment or financing strategies. KKR is in compliance with its debt covenants in all material respects.

 

Investment Commitments

 

As of June 30, 2013, KKR had unfunded commitments consisting of (i) $786.6 million to its active private equity and other investment vehicles, and (ii) $407.6 million in connection with commitments by KKR’s capital markets business. Whether these amounts are actually funded, in whole or in part depends on the terms of such commitments, including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions to funding.

 

Contingent Repayment Guarantees

 

The partnership documents governing KKR’s carry - paying funds, including funds and vehicles relating to private equity, mezzanine, infrastructure, natural resources, direct lending and special situations investments, 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.   Excluding carried interest received by the general partners of funds that were not contributed to KKR in the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of KKR & Co. (Guernsey) L.P. (formerly known as KKR Private Equity Investors, L.P.) on October 1, 2009 (the “KPE Transaction”), as of June 30, 2013, no carried interest was subject to this clawback obligation, assuming that all applicable carry paying funds were liquidated at their June 30, 2013 fair values. Had the investments in such funds been liquidated at zero value, the clawback obligation would have been $1,200.3 million. 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. 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.

 

Certain private equity funds that were contributed to KKR in the KPE Transaction also include a “net loss sharing provision.” Upon the liquidation of an investment vehicle to which a net loss sharing obligation applies, the general partner is required to contribute capital to the vehicle, to fund 20% of the net losses on investments. In these vehicles, such losses would be required to be paid by KKR to the fund investors in those vehicles in the event of a liquidation of the fund regardless of whether any carried interest had previously been distributed, and a greater share of investment losses would be allocable to us relative to the capital that we contributed to it as general partner. Based on the fair market values as of June 30, 2013, there would have been no net loss sharing obligation. If the vehicles were liquidated at zero value, the net loss sharing obligation would have been approximately $578.3 million as of June 30, 2013.

 

Prior to the KPE Transaction, certain KKR principals who received carried interest distributions with respect to certain private equity funds contributed to KKR had personally guaranteed, on a several basis and subject to a cap, the contingent obligations of the general partners of such private equity funds to repay amounts to fund investors pursuant to the general partners’ clawback obligations.  The terms of the KPE Transaction require that KKR principals remain responsible for any clawback obligations relating to carry distributions received prior to the KPE Transaction, up to a maximum of $223.6 million. As of June 30, 2013, no amounts are due with respect to the clawback obligation required to be funded by KKR principals who do not hold direct controlling economic interests in the KKR Group Partnerships. Carry distributions arising subsequent to the KPE Transaction may give rise to clawback obligations that may be allocated generally to KKR and KKR’s principals who participate in the carry pool.  Unlike the clawback obligation, KKR will be responsible for amounts due under a net loss sharing obligation and will indemnify KKR’s principals for any personal guarantees that they have provided with respect to such amounts. In addition, guarantees of or similar arrangements relating to clawback or net loss sharing obligations in favor of third party investors in an individual investment partnership by entities KKR owns may limit distributions of carried interest more generally.

 

Indemnifications

 

In the normal course of business, KKR enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide general indemnifications. In addition, certain of KKR’s consolidated funds have provided certain indemnities relating to environmental and other matters and has provided nonrecourse carve-out guarantees for fraud, willful misconduct and other customary wrongful acts, each in

connection with the financing of certain real estate investments that KKR has made. KKR’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against KKR that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, KKR expects the risk of material loss to be low.

 

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 August 1999, KKR and certain of its current and former personnel as well as the investment partnerships which made an investment were named as defendants in an action brought in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County, Alabama, or the Alabama State Court, alleging breach of fiduciary duty and conspiracy in connection with the acquisition of Bruno’s, Inc. (“Bruno’s”), one of KKR’s former portfolio companies, in 1995. The action was removed to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Alabama. In April 2000, the complaint in this action was amended to further allege that KKR and others violated state law by fraudulently misrepresenting the financial condition of Bruno’s in an August 1995 subordinated notes offering relating to the acquisition and in Bruno’s subsequent periodic financial disclosures. In January 2001, the action was transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama. In 2009, the action was remanded to the Alabama State Court and subsequently consolidated for pretrial purposes with a similar action brought against the underwriters of the August 1995 subordinated notes offering, which was pending before the Alabama State Court. The plaintiffs are seeking compensatory and punitive damages, in an unspecified amount to be proven at trial, for losses they allegedly suffered in connection with their purchase of the subordinated notes. In September 2009, KKR and the other named defendants moved to dismiss the action. In April 2010, the Alabama State Court granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss. In August 2011, the Alabama Supreme Court denied KKR’s petition seeking permission to appeal certain rulings made by the Alabama State Court when denying in part the motion to dismiss. In October 2011, the plaintiffs’ investment adviser filed an amended motion to dismiss a third-party complaint filed by KKR and other defendants asserting a contribution claim against the plaintiffs’ investment adviser, which was granted, without prejudice, in October 2012. In December 2011, KKR filed a petition for a writ of certiorari in the United States Supreme Court seeking permission to appeal the Alabama Supreme Court’s denial of KKR’s petition. In January 2012, the Alabama State Court granted a motion to sever the action from the related action against the underwriters of the subordinated notes. In May 2012, the United States Supreme Court denied KKR’s petition for a writ of certiorari.  On April 22, 2013, the parties entered into a definitive agreement to settle all claims without the admission of wrongdoing. The amount paid by KKR pursuant to the settlement did not have a material effect on KKR’s financial results. The action was dismissed with prejudice on May 8, 2013.

 

On May 23, 2011, KKR, certain KKR affiliates and the board of directors of Primedia Inc. (a former KKR portfolio company whose directors at that time included certain KKR personnel) were named as defendants, along with others, in two shareholder class action complaints filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware challenging the sale of Primedia in a merger transaction that was completed on July 13, 2011. These actions allege, among other things, that Primedia board members, KKR, and certain KKR affiliates, breached their fiduciary duties by entering into the merger agreement at an unfair price and failing to disclose all material information about the merger. Plaintiffs also allege that the merger price was unfair in light of the value of certain shareholder derivative claims, which were dismissed on August 8, 2011, based on a stipulation by the parties that the derivative plaintiffs and any other former Primedia shareholders lost standing to prosecute the derivative claims on behalf of Primedia when the Primedia merger was completed. The dismissed shareholder derivative claims included allegations concerning open market purchases of certain shares of Primedia’s preferred stock by KKR affiliates in 2002 and allegations concerning Primedia’s redemption of certain shares of Primedia’s preferred stock in 2004 and 2005, some of which were owned by KKR affiliates. With respect to the pending shareholder class actions challenging the Primedia merger, on June 7, 2011, the Court of Chancery denied a motion to preliminarily enjoin the merger. On July 18, 2011, the Court of Chancery consolidated the two pending shareholder class actions and appointed lead counsel for plaintiffs. On October 7, 2011, defendants moved to dismiss the operative complaint in the consolidated shareholder class action. The operative complaint seeks, in relevant part, unspecified monetary damages and rescission of the merger. On December 2, 2011, plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, which similarly alleges that the Primedia board members, KKR, and certain KKR affiliates breached their respective fiduciary duties by entering into the merger agreement at an unfair price in light of the value of the dismissed shareholder derivative claims. That amended complaint seeks an unspecified amount of monetary damages. On January 31, 2012, defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint.  On May 10, 2013, the Court of Chancery denied the motion to dismiss the complaint as it relates to the Primedia board members, KKR and certain KKR affiliates. On July 1, 2013, KKR and other defendants filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings.

 

Additionally, in May 2011, two shareholder class actions challenging the Primedia merger were filed in Georgia state courts, asserting similar allegations and seeking similar relief as initially sought by the Delaware shareholder class actions above. Both Georgia actions have been stayed in favor of the Delaware action.

 

In December 2007, KKR, along with 15 other private equity firms and investment banks, were named as defendants in a purported class action complaint filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by shareholders in certain public companies acquired by private equity firms since 2003. In August 2008, KKR, along with 16 other private equity firms and investment banks, were named as defendants in a purported consolidated amended class action complaint. The suit alleges that from mid-2003 defendants have violated antitrust laws by allegedly conspiring to rig bids, restrict the supply of private equity financing, fix the prices for target companies at artificially low levels, and divide up an alleged market for private equity services for leveraged buyouts. The amended complaint seeks injunctive relief on behalf of all persons who sold securities to any of the defendants in leveraged buyout transactions and specifically

challenges nine transactions. The first stage of discovery concluded on or about April 15, 2010. On August 18, 2010, the court granted plaintiffs’ motion to proceed to a second stage of discovery in part and denied it in part. Specifically, the court granted a second stage of discovery as to eight additional transactions but denied a second stage of discovery as to any transactions beyond the additional eight specified transactions. On October 7, 2010, the plaintiffs filed under seal a fourth amended complaint that includes new factual allegations concerning the additional eight transactions and the original nine transactions. The fourth amended complaint also includes eight purported sub-classes of plaintiffs seeking unspecified monetary damages and/or restitution with respect to eight of the original nine challenged transactions and new separate claims against two of the original nine challenged transactions. On January 13, 2011, the court granted a motion filed by KKR and certain other defendants to dismiss all claims alleged by a putative damages sub-class in connection with the acquisition of PanAmSat Corp. and separate claims for relief related to the PanAmSat transaction. The second phase of discovery permitted by the court is completed. On July 11, 2011, plaintiffs filed a motion seeking leave to file a proposed fifth amended complaint that seeks to challenge ten additional transactions in addition to the transactions identified in the previous complaints. Defendants opposed plaintiffs’ motion. On September 7, 2011, the court granted plaintiffs’ motion in part and denied it in part. Specifically, the court granted a third stage of limited discovery as to the ten additional transactions identified in plaintiffs’ proposed fifth amended complaint but denied plaintiffs’ motion seeking leave to file a proposed fifth amended complaint. On June 14, 2012, following the completion of the third phase of discovery, plaintiffs filed a fifth amended complaint which, like their proposed fifth amended complaint, seeks to challenge ten additional transactions in addition to the transactions identified in the previous complaints.  On June 22, 2012, defendants filed a motion to dismiss certain claims asserted in the fifth amended complaint.  On July 18, 2012, the court granted in part and denied in part defendants’ motion to dismiss, dismissing certain previously released claims against certain defendants. On March 13, 2013, the United States District Court denied defendants’ motion for summary judgment on the count involving KKR.  However, the court narrowed plaintiffs’ claim to an alleged overarching agreement to refrain from jumping other defendants’ announced proprietary transactions, thereby limiting the case to a smaller number of transactions subject to plaintiffs’ claim.  Pursuant to the court’s grant of permission to re-file, KKR filed a renewed motion for summary judgment on April 16, 2013, which the court denied on July 18, 2013.

 

On March 4, 2011, KKR received a request from the SEC for information relating to the acquisition of Del Monte Foods Company by private equity funds affiliated with KKR and two other private equity firms, which was announced on November 25, 2010 and completed on March 8, 2011. On May 20, 2011 the SEC issued a subpoena to KKR seeking substantially the same documents and information as the March 4, 2011 request for information. On December 16, 2011, the SEC issued another subpoena to KKR seeking documents and information regarding the period prior to the announcement of the acquisition of Del Monte Foods Company. KKR is cooperating with the SEC’s investigations.

 

In September 2006 and March 2009, KKR received requests for certain documents and other information from the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) in connection with the DOJ’s investigation of private equity firms to determine whether they have engaged in conduct prohibited by United States antitrust laws. KKR is cooperating with the DOJ’s investigation.

 

In January 2011, KKR received a request from the SEC for information regarding KKR’s investors and clients that the SEC defines as sovereign wealth funds and certain services provided by KKR. On December 19, 2011, the SEC issued a subpoena to KKR seeking additional documents and information involving certain sovereign wealth funds specified by the SEC, and on December 6, 2012 and February 15, 2013, the SEC requested additional documents and information pursuant to such subpoena.  KKR is cooperating with the SEC’s investigation.

 

In July 2012, KKR received a subpoena from the New York State Attorney General’s Office seeking information and documents concerning the waiver or deferral of management fees with respect to funds where KKR or its affiliate serves or served as such a fund’s general partner.  KKR is cooperating with the New York State Attorney General in its investigation.

 

Moreover, in the ordinary course of business KKR is subject to governmental and regulatory examinations or investigations and also is and can be both the defendant and the plaintiff in numerous actions 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 litigation, regulatory and other matters 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 are subject to many uncertainties, including among others (i) the proceedings are in early stages; (ii) damages sought are unspecified, unsupportable, unexplained or uncertain; (iii) discovery has not been started or is incomplete; (iv) there is uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions; (v) there are significant factual issues to be resolved; or (vi) there are 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. For one or more of the matters described above for which a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, we have estimated the aggregate amount of losses attributable to KKR to be approximately $32.5 million. We believe such losses may be, in part, subject to insurance and/or indemnity, which we believe may reduce any ultimate loss. This estimate is subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions and uncertainties. Actual outcomes may vary significantly from this estimate.

 

It is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of all pending investigations and legal proceedings, and some of the matters discussed above 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 consolidated financial statements. However, given the potentially large and/or indeterminate amounts sought in certain of 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

 

16. REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

 

KKR has a registered broker-dealer subsidiary which is subject to the minimum net capital requirements of the SEC and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). Additionally, KKR has an entity based in London which is subject to the capital requirements of the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, another entity based in Hong Kong which is subject to the capital requirements of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Ordinance, an entity based in Japan subject to the capital requirements of Financial Services Authority of Japan, and two entities based in Mumbai which are subject to capital requirements of the Reserve Bank of India (“RBI”) and Securities and Exchange Board of India (“SEBI”). All of these broker dealer entities have continuously operated in excess of their respective minimum regulatory capital requirements.

 

The regulatory capital requirements referred to above may restrict KKR’s ability to withdraw capital from its registered broker-dealer entities. At June 30, 2013, approximately $47.6 million of cash at KKR’s registered broker-dealer entities may be restricted as to the payment of cash dividends and advances to KKR.

 

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Distribution

 

A distribution of $0.42 per KKR & Co. L.P. common unit was announced on July 26, 2013 and will be paid on August 20, 2013 to unitholders of record as of the close of business on August 5, 2013. KKR Holdings will receive its pro rata share of the distribution from the KKR Group Partnerships.

ITEM 2.          MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of KKR & Co. L.P., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, and the related notes included elsewhere in this report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2013, including the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained therein. The historical condensed consolidated financial data discussed below reflects the historical results and financial position of KKR. In addition, this discussion and analysis contains forward looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including those described under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements” and “Risk Factors.” Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward looking statements.

 

Overview

 

Led by Henry Kravis and George Roberts, we are a leading global investment firm with $83.5 billion in AUM as of June 30, 2013 and a 37-year history of leadership, innovation and investment excellence. When our founders started our firm in 1976, they established the principles that guide our business approach today, including a patient and disciplined investment process; the alignment of our interests with those of our fund investors, portfolio companies and other stakeholders; and a focus on attracting world class talent.

 

Our business offers a broad range of investment management services to our fund investors and provides capital markets services to our firm, our portfolio companies and other third parties. Throughout our history, we have consistently been a leader in the private equity industry, having completed more than 200 private equity investments in portfolio companies with a total transaction value in excess of $475 billion. In recent years, we have grown our firm by expanding our geographical presence and building businesses in new areas, such as fixed income, equity strategies, hedge fund solutions, capital markets, infrastructure, natural resources and real estate. Our new efforts build on our core principles and industry expertise, allowing us to leverage the intellectual capital and synergies in our businesses, and to capitalize on a broader range of the opportunities we source. Additionally, we have increased our focus on servicing our existing fund investors and have increased our investment in developing relationships with new investors in our funds.

 

We conduct our business with offices throughout the world, providing us with a pre-eminent global platform for sourcing transactions, raising capital and carrying out capital markets activities. Our growth has been driven by value that we have created through our operationally focused investment approach, the expansion of our existing businesses, our entry into new lines of business, innovation in the products that we offer investors in our funds, an increased focus on providing tailored solutions to our clients and the integration of capital markets distribution activities.

 

As a global investment firm, we earn management, monitoring, transaction and incentive fees for providing investment management, monitoring and other services to our funds, vehicles, managed accounts, specialty finance company and portfolio companies, and we generate transaction-specific income from capital markets transactions. We earn additional investment income from investing our own capital alongside that of our fund investors and from the carried interest we receive from our funds and certain of our other investment vehicles. A carried interest entitles the sponsor of a fund to a specified percentage of investment gains that are generated on third-party capital that is invested.

 

We seek to consistently generate attractive investment returns by employing world-class people, following a patient and disciplined investment approach and driving growth and value creation in the assets we manage. Our investment teams have deep industry knowledge and are supported by a substantial and diversified capital base, an integrated global investment platform, the expertise of operating consultants and senior advisors and a worldwide network of business relationships that provide a significant source of investment opportunities, specialized knowledge during due diligence and substantial resources for creating and realizing value for stakeholders. We believe that these aspects of our business will help us continue to expand and grow our business and deliver strong investment performance in a variety of economic and financial conditions.

(1)       The commencement date represents the date on which the general partner of the applicable fund commenced investment of the fund’s capital for our private equity funds and the date of the first closing for our other Private Markets funds and investment vehicles. The end date represents the earlier of (i) the date on which the general partner of the applicable fund was or will be required by the fund’s governing agreement to cease making investments on behalf of the fund, unless extended by a vote of the fund investors, or (ii) the date on which the last investment was made.

 

(2)        The commitment represents the aggregate capital commitments to the fund, including capital commitments by third-party fund investors and the general partner. Foreign currency commitments have been converted into U.S. dollars based on (i) the foreign exchange rate at the date of purchase for each investment and (ii) the exchange rate that prevailed on June 30, 2013, in the case of unfunded commitments.

 

(3)        The remaining cost represents fund investors’ initial investment reduced for any return of capital and realized gains from which the general partner did not receive a carried interest.

Table of Contents

 

The tables below present information as of June 30, 2013 relating to the historical performance of certain of our Private Markets investment vehicles since inception, which we believe illustrates the benefits of our investment approach. The information presented under Total Investments includes all of the investments made by the specified investment vehicle, while the information presented under Realized/Partially Realized Investments includes only those investments for which realized proceeds, excluding current income like dividends and interest, are a material portion of invested capital. This data does not reflect additional capital raised since June 30, 2013 or acquisitions or disposals of investments, changes in investment values or distributions occurring after that date. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

(1)                         These funds were not contributed to KKR as part of the KPE Transaction.

 

(2)                         The capital commitments of the European Fund, the European Fund II, the European Fund III and the E2 Investors (Annex Fund) include euro-denominated commitments of €196.5 million, €2,597.5 million, €2,842.6 million and €103.7 million, respectively. Such amounts have been converted into U.S. dollars based on (i) the foreign exchange rate at the date of purchase for each investment and (ii) the exchange rate prevailing on June 30, 2013 in the case of unfunded commitments.

(3)                         The gross IRR, net IRR and multiple of invested capital are calculated for our investment funds that have invested for at least 36 months prior to June 30, 2013. None of the China Growth Fund, Natural Resources Fund, Infrastructure Fund, North America Fund XI, Asian Fund II or Real Estate Partners America have invested for at least 36 months as of June 30, 2013. We therefore have not calculated gross IRRs, net IRRs and multiples of invested capital with respect to those funds.

 

(4)                         Investments are considered partially realized when realized proceeds, excluding current income like dividends and interest, are a material portion of invested capital. None of the E2 Investors (Annex Fund), Natural Resources Fund, Infrastructure Fund, North America Fund XI, Asian Fund II or Real Estate Partners America have realized a material portion of invested capital. We therefore have not calculated gross IRRs, net IRRs and multiples of invested capital with respect to the investments of those funds.

 

*                               IRRs measure the aggregate annual compounded returns generated by a fund’s investments over a holding period. Net IRRs presented under Total Investments are calculated after giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees. Net IRRs presented under Realized/Partially Realized Investments are calculated after giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest, but before payment of any applicable management fees as management fees are applied to funds, not investments. Gross IRRs are calculated before giving effect to the allocation of carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees.

 

**                          The multiples of invested capital measure the aggregate returns 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 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.

 

Public Markets

 

Through the Public Markets segment, we manage KKR Financial Holdings LLC, or KFN, which is a specialty finance company, as well as a number of investment funds, structured finance vehicles and separately managed accounts that invest capital in (i) leveraged credit strategies, such as leveraged loans and high yield bonds, (ii) liquid long/short equity strategies, (iii) alternative credit strategies such as mezzanine investments, special situations investments and direct senior lending and (iv) hedge fund solutions. These funds, vehicles and accounts, including three investment management companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), are managed by KKR Asset Management LLC, or KAM, and Prisma Capital Partners LP, or Prisma. Both KAM and Prisma are SEC registered investment advisers. On January 23, 2013, we acquired a 24.9% interest in Nephila Capital Ltd. (“Nephila”), an investment manager focused on investing in natural catastrophe and weather risk. We intend to grow the Public Markets business by leveraging our global investment platform and experienced investment professionals.

 

We generally review our performance in the Public Markets segment by investment strategy. Our leveraged credit strategies invest in leveraged loans and high yield bonds, or a combination of both. The following chart presents information regarding these leveraged loan and high yield bond strategies from inception to June 30, 2013. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Inception-to-June 30, 2013 Annualized Gross Performance vs. Benchmark (1) by Strategy

 

 


(1)                                 The Benchmarks referred to herein include the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (the “S&P/LSTA Loan Index”) and the Bank of America Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index (the “BoAML HY Master II Index” and, together with the S&P/LSTA Loan Index, the “Indices”). The S&P/LSTA Loan Index is an index that comprises all loans that meet the inclusion criteria and that have marks from the LSTA/LPC mark-to-market service. The inclusion criteria consist of the following: (i) syndicated term loan instruments consisting of term loans (both amortizing and institutional), acquisition loans (after they are drawn down) and bridge loans; (ii) secured; (iii) U.S. dollar denominated; (iv) minimum term of one year at inception; and (v) minimum initial spread of LIBOR plus 1.25%. The BoAML HY Master II Index is a market value weighted index of below investment grade U.S. dollar denominated corporate bonds publicly issued in the U.S. domestic market. “Yankee” bonds (debt of foreign issuers issued in the U.S. domestic market) are included in the BoAML HY Master II Index provided that the issuer is domiciled in a country having investment grade foreign currency long-term debt rating. Qualifying bonds must have maturities of one year or more, a fixed coupon schedule and minimum outstanding of US$100 million. In addition, issuers having a credit rating lower than BBB3, but not in default, are also included. While the returns of KAM strategies reflect the reinvestment of income and dividends, none of the indices presented in the chart above reflect such reinvestment. Furthermore, these indices are not subject to management fees, incentive allocations or expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in unmanaged indices.

 

(2)                                 The Opportunistic Credit strategy invests in high yield securities and corporate loans with no preset allocation. The Benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the Opportunistic Credit strategy presented herein is based on the BoAML HY Master II Index.

 

(3)                                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.

 

(4)                                 Performance is based on a composite of portfolios that primarily invest in leveraged loans. The Benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the Bank Loans strategy is based on the S&P/LSTA Loan Index.

 

(5)                                 Performance is based on a composite of portfolios that primarily invest in high yield securities. The Benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the High Yield strategy is based on the BoAML HY Master II Index.

In addition, for the period beginning in June 2004 through June 30, 2013, Prisma’s Low Volatility strategy, which consists of the majority of Prisma’s AUM and FPAUM, generated a net annualized return of 6.3%.

Capital Markets and Principal Activities

 

Our Capital Markets and Principal Activities segment combines KKR’s principal assets with our global capital markets business. Our capital markets business, which includes approximately 40 executives, supports our firm, our portfolio companies and select third-party clients by providing tailored capital markets advice and by developing and implementing both traditional and non-traditional capital solutions for investments and companies seeking financing. Our capital markets services include arranging debt and equity financing for transactions, placing and underwriting securities offerings, structuring new investment products and providing capital markets services. When our capital markets business underwrites an offering of securities or a loan, it commits to buy and sell an issue of securities or principal amount of indebtedness, and earns fees by purchasing those securities or indebtedness at a discount. In a syndication, this business earns a fee for arranging transactions and placing securities or indebtedness. To allow us to carry out these activities, we are registered or authorized to carry out certain broker-dealer activities in various countries in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Middle East.

In addition, through MerchCap Solutions LLC (formerly known as KKR-SPC Merchant Advisors LLC), we seek to provide certain capital markets services to mid-market and sponsor-backed companies as well as principal investments to support client needs.

 

KKR’s principal assets, which include investments in our investment funds and co-investments in certain portfolio companies of such funds, provide us with a significant source of capital to further grow and expand our business, increase our participation in our existing portfolio of businesses and further align our interests with those of our fund investors and other stakeholders. The majority of principal assets consist of assets we acquired in the KPE Transaction. We believe that the market experience and skills of professionals in our capital markets business and the investment expertise of professionals in our Private Markets and Public Markets segments will allow us to continue to grow and diversify this asset base over time.

 

Business Environment

 

As a global investment firm, we are affected by financial and economic conditions in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and elsewhere in the world. Global and regional economic conditions have a substantial impact on our financial condition and results of operations, impacting both the success of the investments we make as well as our ability to exit these investments profitably and to make new investments.  While certain economies have experienced moderate expansion in 2013, the current global economic environment remains uncertain. Within Europe, there is a divergence between growth in Germany, and growth in other countries, which remain slow or negative.  Overall, Europe has experienced negative growth trends as sovereign debt concerns have affected consumer and business behavior which has pushed the region into recession.  Fiscal deficits and the levels of government debt in a number of European countries have led to substantial increases in sovereign borrowing costs, stresses in the European banking system, and associated reductions in the availability of credit and economic activity in the euro area. Ongoing austerity and deleveraging in the developed world are likely to persist in the near-term, which may lead to increased volatility in the global capital markets and pose downside risk to the economic outlook. While a number of policy actions have been taken which seek to address the European sovereign debt crisis, if one or more Eurozone members were to leave the Eurozone, the functioning of Europe’s single market currency could be undermined which would cause a deeper and more damaging impact on the global economy. Growth in Asian economies is mixed. For example, the rate of real gross domestic product growth in China remains lower compared to the pace of growth in prior years.   In addition, the new Chinese leadership has signaled that its reform agenda is more important than growth, and the regulatory and structural adjustments could further impair growth. The U.S. economy has returned to moderate growth in early 2013 following a slight contraction in the fourth quarter of 2012, but continues to be restrained by various headwinds. For example, while unemployment has declined, the unemployment rate remains elevated and consumer and business spending has been cautious. In the wake of recent fiscal tightening in the U.S., U.S. consumers could further retrench spending, and while central banks around the world adopt quantitative easing, the U.S. dollar could continue to appreciate, which could impact U.S. corporate profitability as well as curtail U.S. growth. In addition, the U.S. Federal Reserve is signaling an upcoming shift in monetary policy and tapering of quantitative easing could cause interest rates to rise substantially which could affect our investments. Moreover, while as of July 26, 2013, our Private Markets business has invested or committed approximately $3.0 billion in new transaction activity, nearly matching the total Private Markets committed dollars invested for the full year 2012, levels of transaction activity are generally volatile, and reduced levels of transaction activity tend to result in a reduced amount of transaction fees and potential future investment gains.

 

In addition to economic conditions, global equity markets also have a substantial effect on our financial condition and results of operations, as equity prices, which have been and may continue to be volatile, significantly impact the valuation of our portfolio companies and, therefore, the investment income that we recognize. For our investments that are publicly listed and thus have readily observable market prices, global equity markets have a direct impact on valuation. For other investments, these markets have an indirect impact on valuation as we typically utilize a market multiples valuation approach as one of the methodologies to ascertain fair value of our investments that do not have readily observable market prices. In addition, the receptivity of equity markets to initial public offerings, or IPOs, as well as subsequent equity offerings by companies already public, impacts our ability to realize investment gains. For example in the third quarter of 2013, we were able to complete a secondary sale of common shares of Dollar General Corporation (NYSE: DG).

 

Notwithstanding the trends described above, global equity markets rose during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, with the S&P 500 Index up 2.9% and the MSCI World Index up 0.9%. Volatility increased during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 as evidenced by the Chicago Board Options Exchange Market Volatility Index, or the VIX, a

Table of Contents

 

measure of volatility, beginning the quarter at 12.7 and ending at 16.9 on June 30, 2013. The below-investment grade credit markets were mixed, with the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index up 0.2% and the BofA Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index down 1.4% during the three months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.

 

Conditions in global credit markets also have a substantial effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We rely on the ability of our funds to obtain committed debt financing on favorable terms in order to complete new private equity and other transactions. Similarly, our portfolio companies regularly require access to the global credit markets in order to obtain financing for their operations and to refinance or extend the maturities of their outstanding indebtedness. To the extent that conditions in the credit markets render such financing difficult to obtain or more expensive, this may negatively impact the operating performance and valuations of those portfolio companies and, therefore, our investment returns on our funds. In addition, during economic downturns or periods of slow economic growth, the inability to refinance or extend the maturities of portfolio company debt (and thereby extend our investment holding period) may hinder our ability to realize investment gains from these portfolio companies when economic conditions improve. Credit markets can also impact valuations. For example, we typically use a discounted cash flow analysis as one of the methodologies to ascertain the fair value of our investments that do not have readily observable market prices. If applicable interest rates rise, then the assumed cost of capital for those portfolio companies would be expected to increase under the discounted cash flow analysis, and this effect would negatively impact their valuations if not offset by other factors. Conversely, a fall in interest rates can positively impact valuations of certain portfolio companies if not offset by other factors. These impacts could be substantial depending upon the magnitude of the change in interest rates. In certain cases, the valuations obtained from the discounted cash flow analysis and the other primary methodology we use, the market multiples approach, may yield different and offsetting results. For example, the positive impact of falling interest rates on discounted cash flow valuations may offset the negative impact of the market multiples valuation approach and may result in less of a decline in value than for those investments that had a readily observable market price. Finally, low interest rates related to monetary stimulus and economic stagnation may also negatively impact expected returns on all investments, as the demand for relatively higher return assets increases and supply decreases.

 

Our Public Markets segment manages a number of funds and other accounts that invest capital in a variety of credit and equity strategies, including leveraged loans, high yield bonds and mezzanine debt. As a result, conditions in global credit and equity markets have a direct impact on both the performance of these investments as well as the ability to make additional investments on favorable terms in the future.

 

In addition, our Capital Markets and Principal Activities segment generates fees through a variety of activities in connection with the issuance and placement of equity and debt securities and credit facilities, with the size of fees generally correlated to overall transaction sizes. As a result, the conditions in global equity and credit markets, as well as transaction activity in our Private Markets segment and to a lesser extent, Public Markets segment, impact both the frequency and size of fees generated by this segment. For example, subsequent to June 30, 2013, funds advised by KKR acquired Gardner Denver for approximately $3.9 billion, including the assumption of debt.

 

Finally, conditions in commodity markets impact the performance of our portfolio companies in a variety of ways, including through the direct or indirect impact on the cost of the inputs used in their operations as well as the pricing and profitability of the products or services that they sell. The price of commodities has historically been subject to substantial volatility, which among other things, could be driven by economic, monetary, political or weather related factors.  If certain of our portfolio companies are unable to raise prices to offset increases in the cost of raw materials or other inputs, or if consumers defer purchases of or seek substitutes for the products of such portfolio companies, such portfolio companies could experience lower operating income which may in turn reduce the valuation of those portfolio companies. However, the results of operations and valuations of certain of our other portfolio companies, for example those involved in the development of oil and natural gas properties, may benefit from an increase or suffer from a decline in commodity prices. In particular, our Private Markets portfolio contains several real asset investments whose values are influenced by the price of natural gas and oil. While such prices remained relatively flat or declined during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the magnitude of such declines did not materially impact the value of our oil and gas investments. However, in periods where such price declines are more significant, the valuations of these real assets investments would also generally decrease. Furthermore, as we make additional investments in oil and gas companies and assets, the value of our portfolio may become increasingly sensitive to oil and gas prices.

Basis of Accounting

 

The consolidated financial statements, referred to hereafter as our “financial statements,” include the accounts of KKR’s management and capital markets companies, the general partners of certain unconsolidated funds, general partners of consolidated funds and their respective consolidated funds and certain other entities.

 

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, certain entities, including a substantial number of our funds, are consolidated notwithstanding the fact that we may hold only a minority economic interest or non-economic variable interest in those entities. In particular, the majority of our consolidated funds consist of funds in which we hold a general partner or managing member interest that gives us substantive controlling rights over such funds. With respect to our consolidated funds and vehicles, we generally have operational discretion and control, and fund investors have no substantive rights to impact ongoing governance and operating activities of the fund, including the ability to remove the general partner, also known as kick-out rights. As of June 30, 2013 our Private Markets segment included 13 consolidated investment funds and 14 unconsolidated co-investment vehicles. Our Public Markets segment included 11 consolidated investment vehicles and 47 unconsolidated vehicles.

 

When an entity is consolidated, we reflect the assets, liabilities, fees, expenses, investment income and cash flows of the consolidated entity on a gross basis. For example, the majority of the economic interests in a consolidated fund, which are held by third party investors in our funds, are reflected as noncontrolling interests. While the consolidation of a consolidated fund does not have an effect on the amounts of net income attributable to KKR or KKR’s partners’ capital that KKR reports, the consolidation does significantly impact the financial statement presentation. This is due to the fact that the assets, liabilities, fees, expenses and investment income of the consolidated funds are reflected on a gross basis while the allocable share of those amounts that are attributable to noncontrolling interests are reflected as single line items. The single line items in which the assets, liabilities, fees, expenses and investment income attributable to noncontrolling interests are recorded are presented as noncontrolling interests on the consolidated statements of financial condition and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests on the consolidated statements of operations. For a further discussion of our consolidation policies, see “—Critical Accounting Policies—Consolidation.”

 

Key Financial Measures

 

Fees

 

Fees consist primarily of (i) monitoring and consulting fees from providing advisory and other services, (ii) management and incentive fees from providing investment management services to unconsolidated funds, a specialty finance company, structured finance and other vehicles, and separately managed accounts and (iii) transaction fees earned in connection with successful investment transactions and from capital markets activities. 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. 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.

 

Fees reported in our consolidated financial statements do not include the management or incentive fees that we earn from consolidated funds, because those fees are eliminated in consolidation. However, because those management fees are earned from, and funded by, third-party investors in our funds who hold noncontrolling interests in the consolidated funds, net income attributable to KKR is increased by the amount of the management fees that are eliminated in consolidation. Accordingly, while the consolidation of funds impacts the amount of fees that are recognized in our financial statements, it does not affect the ultimate amount of net income attributable to KKR or KKR’s partners’ capital.

 

For a further discussion of our fee policies, see “—Critical Accounting Policies—Revenue Recognition.”

Expenses

 

Compensation and Benefits

 

Compensation and benefits expense includes cash compensation consisting of salaries, bonuses, and benefits, as well as equity-based compensation consisting of charges associated with the vesting of equity-based awards and carry pool allocations.

 

All KKR principals and other 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, cash bonuses that are paid to certain of KKR’s principals are currently 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 are recorded based on the unvested portion of quarterly earnings distributions received by KKR Holdings at the time of the distribution.

 

With respect to KKR’s active and future funds and co-investment vehicles that provide for carried interest, KKR will allocate to its principals and other professionals a portion of the carried interest earned as part of its carry pool. KKR currently allocates approximately 40% of the carry it earns from these funds and vehicles to its carry pool. For the purpose of the discussion under “—Consolidated Results of Operations,” these amounts are accounted for as compensatory profit-sharing arrangements in conjunction with the related carried interest income and recorded as compensation and benefits expense for KKR employees and general, administrative and other expense for certain non-employee consultants and service providers in the consolidated statements of operations. However, for the purposes of the discussion under “—Segment Analysis” carry pool allocations are recorded as a component of Investment Income (Loss).

 

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 and other general and operating expenses which are not borne by fund investors and are not offset by credits attributable to fund investors’ noncontrolling interests in consolidated funds. General, administrative and other expense also consists of costs incurred in connection with pursuing potential investments that do not result in completed transactions, a substantial portion of which 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. The majority of our net gains (losses) from investment activities are related to our private equity 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 private equity 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.”

Table of Contents

 

Dividend Income

 

Dividend income consists primarily of distributions that 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 excess cash generated from operations from portfolio companies and (iii) other significant refinancing’s undertaken by portfolio companies.

 

Interest Income

 

Interest income consists primarily of interest that is received on our cash balances, principal assets and fixed income instruments in which our consolidated funds invest.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense is incurred from credit facilities entered into by KKR, debt issued by KKR, and debt outstanding at our consolidated funds entered into with the objective of enhancing returns or managing cash flow, which are generally not direct obligations of the general partners of our consolidated funds or management companies. In addition to these interest costs, we capitalize debt financing costs incurred in connection with new debt arrangements. Such costs are amortized into interest expense using either the interest method or the straight-line method, as appropriate. See “—Liquidity”.

 

Income Taxes

 

The KKR Group Partnerships and certain of their subsidiaries operate in the United States as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes and as corporate entities in non-U.S. jurisdictions. Accordingly, these entities, in some cases, are subject to New York City unincorporated business taxes, or non-U.S. income taxes. Furthermore, we hold our interest in one of the KKR Group Partnerships through KKR Management Holdings Corp., which is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and certain other wholly-owned subsidiaries of the KKR Group Partnerships are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, such wholly-owned subsidiaries of KKR, including KKR Management Holdings Corp., and of the KKR Group Partnerships, are subject to federal, state and local corporate income taxes at the entity level and the related tax provision attributable to KKR’s share of this income is reflected in the financial statements. We also generate certain interest income to our unitholders and interest deductions to KKR Management Holdings Corp., as a result of a 2011 recapitalization of KKR Management Holdings Corp.

 

We use the asset and liability method to account for income taxes in accordance with GAAP. 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 currently enacted tax rates. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period when the change is enacted. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

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.

 

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

 

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests represents the ownership interests that third parties hold in entities that are consolidated in the financial statements as well as the ownership interests in our KKR Group Partnerships 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. Historically, the amount of net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests has been substantial and has resulted in significant charges and credits in the statements of operations. Given the consolidation of certain of our investment funds and the significant ownership interests in our KKR Group Partnerships held by KKR Holdings, we expect this activity to continue.

Segment Operating and Performance Measures

 

The segment key performance measures that follow are used by management in making operating and resource deployment decisions as well as assessing the overall performance of each of KKR’s reportable business segments. The reportable segments for KKR’s business are presented prior to giving effect to the allocation of income (loss) between KKR & Co. L.P. and KKR Holdings L.P. and as such represent the business in total. In addition, KKR’s reportable segments are presented without giving effect to the consolidation of the funds that KKR manages.

 

Certain of the following financial measures in this report are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP. We believe that providing these performance measures on a supplemental basis to our GAAP results is helpful to unitholders in assessing the overall performance of KKR’s businesses. These financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for similar financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP if available. 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. 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 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 12. Segment Reporting” and later in this report under “— Segment Book Value.”

 

Fee Related Earnings (“FRE”)

 

Fee related earnings is comprised of segment operating revenues less segment operating expenses (other than certain compensation and general and administrative expenses incurred in the generation of net realized principal investment income). This measure is used by management as an alternative measurement of the operating earnings of KKR and its business segments before investment income. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the operating profitability of our fee generating management companies and capital markets businesses. The components of FRE on a segment basis differ from the equivalent GAAP amounts on a consolidated basis as a result of: (i) the inclusion of management fees earned from consolidated funds that were eliminated in consolidation; (ii) the exclusion of fees and expenses of certain consolidated entities; (iii) the exclusion of charges relating to the amortization of intangible assets; (iv) the exclusion of charges relating to carry pool allocations; (v) the exclusion of non-cash equity charges and other non-cash compensation charges borne by KKR Holdings or incurred under the KKR & Co. L.P. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan; (vi) the exclusion of certain reimbursable expenses; and (vii) the exclusion of certain non-recurring items.

 

Economic Net Income (Loss) (“ENI”)

 

Economic net income (loss) is a measure of profitability for KKR’s reportable segments and is used by management as an alternative measurement of the operating and investment earnings of KKR and its business segments. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the overall profitability of KKR’s businesses inclusive of investment income and carried interest. ENI is comprised of: (i) FRE; plus (ii) segment investment income (loss), which is reduced for carry pool allocations, management fee refunds, interest expense and certain compensation and general and administrative expenses incurred in the generation of net realized principal investment income; less (iii) certain economic interests in KKR’s segments held by third parties. ENI differs from net income (loss) on a GAAP basis as a result of: (i) the exclusion of the items referred to in FRE above; (ii) the exclusion of investment income (loss) relating to noncontrolling interests; and (iii) the exclusion of income taxes.

 

Assets Under Management (“AUM”)

 

Assets under management represent the assets from which KKR is entitled to receive fees or a carried interest and general partner capital. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into KKR’s capital raising activities and the overall activity in its investment funds and vehicles. 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 plus uncalled capital commitments from these funds; (ii) the fair value of investments in KKR’s co-investment vehicles; (iii) the net asset value of certain of KKR’s fixed income products; (iv) the value of outstanding structured finance vehicles; and (v) the fair value of other assets managed by KKR. KKR’s definition of AUM is not based on any

 

68



Table of Contents

 

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.

 

Fee Paying AUM (“FPAUM”)

 

Fee paying AUM represents only those assets under management from which KKR receives fees. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the capital base upon which KKR earns management fees. This relates to KKR’s capital raising activities and the overall activity in its investment funds and vehicles, for only those funds and vehicles where KKR receives fees (i.e., excluding vehicles that receive only carried interest or general partner capital). FPAUM is the sum of all of the individual fee bases that are used to calculate KKR’s fees and differs from AUM in the following respects: (i) assets from which KKR does not receive a fee are excluded (i.e., assets with respect to which it receives only carried interest) and (ii) certain assets, primarily in its private equity funds, are reflected based on capital commitments and invested capital as opposed to fair value because fees are not impacted by changes in the fair value of underlying investments.

 

Committed Dollars Invested

 

Committed dollars invested is the aggregate amount of capital commitments that have been invested by KKR’s investment funds and carry-yielding co-investment vehicles and is used as a measure of investment activity for KKR and its business segments during a given period. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into KKR’s investment of committed capital. Such amounts include: (i) capital invested by fund investors and co-investors with respect to which KKR is entitled to a fee or carried interest and (ii) capital invested by KKR’s investment funds and vehicles.

 

Syndicated Capital

 

Syndicated capital is the aggregate amount of debt or equity capital in transactions originated by KKR investment funds and vehicles, which has been distributed to third parties in exchange for a fee. It does not include (i) capital committed to such transactions by carry-yielding co-investment vehicles, which is instead reported in committed dollars invested and (ii) debt capital that is arranged as part of the acquisition financing of transactions originated by KKR investment funds and vehicles. Syndicated capital is used as a measure of investment activity for KKR and its business segments during a given period, and we believe that this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into levels of syndication activity in KKR’s Capital Markets and Principal Activities segment and across its investment platform.

 

Uncalled Commitments

 

Uncalled commitments are used as a measure 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 unitholders as it provides additional insight into the amount of capital that is available to KKR’s investment funds and vehicles to make future investments.

 

Adjusted Units

 

Adjusted units are used as a measure of the total equity ownership of KKR that is held by KKR & Co. L.P. and KKR Holdings and represent the fully diluted unit count using the if-converted method. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides an indication of the total equity ownership of KKR as if all outstanding KKR Holdings units had been exchanged for common units of KKR & Co. L.P.

Book Value

 

Book value is a measure of the net assets of KKR’s reportable segments and is used by management primarily in assessing the unrealized value of our investment portfolio, including carried interest, as well as our overall liquidity position. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the assets and liabilities of KKR excluding the assets and liabilities that are allocated to noncontrolling interest holders. Book value differs from KKR & Co. L.P. partners’ capital on a GAAP basis primarily as a result of the exclusion of ownership interests attributable to KKR Holdings L.P.

 

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 unitholders 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 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. As of June 30, 2013, we had cash and short-term investments on a segment basis of $1,994.8 million. Excluding $827.4 million of liquid short-term investments, cash and short-term investments may be reconciled to cash and cash equivalents of $1,167.4 million as of June 30, 2013.

Fees

 

Fees were $166.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $54.0 million, compared to fees of $112.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The net increase was primarily due to an increase in management fees of $23.0 million, an increase in transaction fees of $14.8 million and an increase in incentive fees of $11.3 million. The increase in management fees was primarily the result of the acquisition of Prisma as well as new capital raised primarily in our Public Markets segment. The increase in transaction fees was primarily driven by an increase in the size of fee-generating investments completed during the three months ended June 30, 2013 in our Private Markets segment. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, there were six transaction fee-generating investments with a total combined transaction value of approximately $2.5 billion compared to five transaction fee-generating investments with a total combined transaction value of approximately $0.7 billion during the three months ended June 30, 2012. Transaction fees vary by investment based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are transaction size, the particular discussions as to the amount of the fees, the complexity of the transaction and KKR’s role in the transaction. The increase in incentive fees is due primarily to an increase incentive fees earned in connection with hedge fund solutions platforms during the three months ended June 30, 2013, which were not part of the KKR platform during the three months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Expenses

 

Expenses were $292.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $56.7 million, compared to $348.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to a net decrease in compensation and benefits of $80.0 million, partially offset by an increase in other operating expenses of

 

71



Table of Contents

 

$23.3 million. The net decrease in compensation and benefits is due primarily to (i) lower carry pool allocations as a result of the recognition of a lower level of carried interest during the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012, (ii) lower equity-based compensation reflecting fewer KKR Holdings units vesting for expense recognition purposes under the graded attribution method of expense recognition, partially offset by (iii) an increase in cash-based compensation as a result of the Prisma acquisition and increased headcount and (iv) higher equity-based compensation relating to additional equity grants under the Equity Incentive Plan. The increase in other operating expenses was primarily due to the acquisition of Prisma.

 

Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities

 

Net gains from investment activities were $0.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $1.5 billion, compared to $1.6 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily driven by a lower level of net appreciation in our private equity portfolio in the current period when compared to the prior period. The following is a summary of net gains (losses) from investment activities:

Table of Contents

 

unrealized investment gains in our private equity portfolio were driven primarily by net unrealized gains of $0.2 billion and $0.1 billion in our 2006 Fund and European Fund II, respectively. Our share prices of various publicly held investments had a net decrease in value, the most significant of which were losses on HCA, Inc. (NYSE: HCA), Kion Group AG (FRA: KGX), and The Nielsen Company B.V. (NYSE: NLSN). These decreases were partially offset by increased share prices of various publicly held investments, the most significant of which was Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE: JAZZ). Our private portfolio contributed an overall increase in value, the most significant of which were gains relating to Alliance Boots GmbH (health care sector), ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG (media sector) and Oriental Brewery (consumer products sector). The unrealized gains on our private portfolio were partially offset by unrealized losses relating primarily to A.T.U Auto-Teile-Unger (retail sector), BIS Industries Ltd. (industrial sector) and GenesisCare (health care sector). The increased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to an increase in the value of market comparables and individual company performance. The decreased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to individual company performance or, in certain cases, an unfavorable business outlook.

 

The most significant driver of net gains (losses) from investment activities for the three months ended June 30, 2012 is related to unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value in our private equity investments. The net unrealized investment gains in our private equity portfolio were driven primarily by net unrealized gains of $1.5 billion and $0.4 billion in our 2006 Fund and European Fund II, respectively, partially offset by net unrealized investment losses of $0.2 billion in each of our Millennium Fund, European Fund III and Asian Fund. Approximately 2% of the net change in value for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was attributable to changes in share prices of various publicly-listed investments, most notably increases in Dollar General Corporation and HCA, Inc., partially offset by decreases in Seven Media Group (media sector) and The Nielsen Company B.V.  Our private portfolio contributed the remainder of the change in value, with the largest contributors being unrealized gains relating to Alliance Boots GmbH and to a lesser extent Tarkett S.A. (manufacturing sector), which were partially offset by unrealized losses on ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG and Toys R Us, Inc. (retail sector).  The increased valuations, in the aggregate, generally relate to individual company performance which was only partially offset by a decrease in market comparables and in the case of Alliance Boots GmbH an increase that reflected the valuation of an agreement executed in the second quarter of 2012 to sell a portion of the investment.  The decreased valuations, in the aggregate, generally relate to a decrease in market comparables and in certain cases, individual company performance, which may include an unfavorable business outlook.

 

Dividend Income

 

Dividend income was $209.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $129.6 million, compared to dividend income of $79.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012.  During the three months ended June 30, 2013, we received dividends of $139.7 million from Pets at Home (retail sector), $23.1 million from TDC A/S (OMX: TDC), $21.8 million from Santander Consumer USA (financial services sector) and an aggregate of $24.9 million of dividends from other investments. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we received dividends of $44.7 million from TDC A/S, $24.4 million from Santander Consumer USA and an aggregate of $10.8 million of dividends from other investments. Significant dividends from portfolio companies are generally not recurring quarterly dividends and may occur in the future; however, their size and frequency are variable.

 

Interest Income

 

Interest income was $128.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $40.1 million, compared to $87.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase primarily reflects a net increase in the level of fixed income instruments in our Public Markets investment vehicles.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense was $24.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $7.7 million, compared to $16.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to an increase in debt obligations in connection with the issuance of our 2043 Senior Notes on February 1, 2013.

Income (Loss) Before Taxes

 

Due to the factors described above, principally a lower level of net gains from investment activities, income before taxes was $0.3 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $1.2 billion, compared to income before taxes of $1.5 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

 

Net loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests was $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $11.1 million, compared to net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests of $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease primarily reflects a decrease in the investment values of investment vehicles that allow for redemptions by their limited partners.

 

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

 

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $0.3 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $1.1 billion, compared to $1.4 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily driven by the overall changes in the components of net gains (losses) from investment activities described above.

 

Six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to six months ended June 30, 2012

 

Fees

 

Fees were $317.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $88.9 million, compared to fees of $228.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The net increase was primarily due to an increase in management fees of $43.8 million, an increase in incentive fees of $20.5 million, an increase in transaction fees of $9.6 million and an increase in gross monitoring fees of $7.4 million. The increase in management fees was primarily the result of the acquisition of Prisma as well as new capital raised primarily in our Public Markets segment. The increase in incentive fees is due primarily to an increase in incentive fees earned in connection with hedge fund solutions platforms during the six months ended June 30, 2013, which were not part of the KKR platform during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and increase in incentive fees received from KFN, resulting from a higher level of income when compared to the prior period. The increase in transaction fees was primarily driven by an increase in the size and number of fee-generating investments completed during the six months ended June 30, 2013 in our Private Markets segment. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, there were 12 transaction fee-generating investments with a total combined transaction value of approximately $3.3 billion compared to seven transaction fee-generating investments with a total combined transaction value of approximately $1.9 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Transaction fees vary by investment based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are transaction size, the particular discussions as to the amount of the fees, the complexity of the transaction and KKR’s role in the transaction. The increase in transaction fees was partially offset by a decrease in our capital markets fees due principally to lower overall transaction sizes of syndicated equity for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The transaction fees we receive generally depend on the amount of capital our funds and other vehicles deploy and also the amount of capital our capital markets business syndicates. The increase in monitoring fees was the result of a termination of a monitoring fee arrangement in connection with the sale of Intelligence Ltd. (services sector) of $4.8 million and an increase in recurring monitoring fees reflecting the acquisition of new portfolio companies and the disposition of other portfolio companies resulting in an increase in the average size of recurring monitoring fees. Termination payments may occur in the future; however, they are infrequent in nature and are generally correlated with IPO or other sale activity in our private equity portfolio. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we had 38 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $1.5 million compared with 38 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $1.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Expenses

 

Expenses were $731.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $62.6 million, compared to $794.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to a net decrease in compensation and benefits of $121.3 million, partially offset by an increase in other operating expenses of $58.7

Table of Contents

 

million. The net decrease in compensation and benefits is due primarily to (i) lower carry pool allocations as a result of the recognition of a lower level of carried interest during the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012, (ii) lower equity-based compensation reflecting fewer KKR Holdings units vesting for expense recognition purposes under the graded attribution method of expense recognition, partially offset by (iii) an increase in cash-based compensation as a result of the Prisma acquisition and increased headcount and (iv) higher equity-based compensation relating to additional equity grants under the Equity Incentive Plan. The increase in other operating expenses was primarily due to the acquisition of Prisma and continued growth of our business for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities

 

Net gains from investment activities were $2.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $2.3 billion, compared to $4.7 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily driven by a lower level of net appreciation in our private equity portfolio in the current period when compared to the prior period.

The most significant driver of net gains (losses) from investment activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is related to unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value in our private equity investments. The net unrealized investment gains in our private equity portfolio were driven primarily by net unrealized gains of $1.1 billion, $0.4 billion and $0.3 billion in our 2006 Fund, Millennium Fund and Asian Fund respectively. Approximately 36% of the net change in value for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was attributable to changes in share prices of various publicly-listed investments, most notably increases in HCA, Inc., NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NASDAQ: NXPI) and TDC A/S, partially offset by decreases relating to Far East Horizon Ltd. (HK: 3360), Kion Group AG and Bharti Infratel Ltd. (BOM: 534816). Our private portfolio contributed the remainder of the change in value, with the largest contributors being unrealized gains relating to Alliance Boots GmbH, Academy Sports and Outdoors (retail sector) and Intelligence Ltd. The unrealized gains on our private portfolio were partially offset by unrealized losses relating primarily to U.N RO-RO Isletmeleri A.S. (transportation sector), A.T.U Auto-Teile-Unger and U.S. Foods (retail sector). The increased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to an increase (i) in the value of market comparables and individual company performance, (ii) in the case of Alliance Boots GmbH, in part due to the increase in the value of a publicly traded stock that may be delivered pursuant to a previously announced transaction and (iii) in the case of Intelligence Ltd., an increase that primarily reflected the valuation of an agreement to sell the investment that was executed in March 2013. The decreased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to individual company performance or, in certain cases, an unfavorable business outlook.

 

The most significant driver of net gains (losses) from investment activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 is related to unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value in our private equity investments. The net unrealized investment gains in our private equity portfolio were driven primarily by net unrealized gains of $2.7 billion and $0.9 billion in our 2006 Fund and European Fund II, respectively. Approximately 34% of the net change in value for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was attributable to changes in share prices of various publicly-listed investments, most notably increases in Dollar General Corporation and HCA, Inc., partially offset by decreases in Seven Media Group and The Nielsen Company B.V.  Our private portfolio contributed the remainder of the change in value, with the largest contributors being unrealized gains relating to Alliance Boots GmbH, First Data Corporation (financial services sector), Academy Sports and Outdoors, Intelligence Ltd. and Tarkett S.A., which were partially offset by unrealized losses on ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG, Del Monte Foods Company (consumer products sector) and Ambea AB (health care sector).  The increased valuations, in the aggregate, generally relate to individual company performance which was only partially offset by a decrease in market comparables and in the case of Alliance Boots GmbH, an agreement executed in the second quarter of 2012 to sell the investment.  The decreased valuations, in the aggregate, generally relate to a decrease in market comparables and in certain cases, individual company performance, which may include an unfavorable business outlook.

 

Dividend Income

 

Dividend income was $249.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $3.9 million, compared to dividend income of $252.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we received dividends of $139.7 million from Pets at Home, $52.0 million from Santander Consumer USA, $23.1 million from TDC A/S and an aggregate of $34.2 million of dividends from other investments. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we received dividends of $168.9 million from HCA, Inc., $44.7 million from TDC A/S, $24.4 million from Santander Consumer USA and an aggregate of $14.9 million of dividends from other investments. Significant dividends from portfolio companies are generally not recurring quarterly dividends and may occur in the future; however, their size and frequency are variable.

 

Interest Income

 

Interest income was $237.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $73.3 million, compared to $164.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase primarily reflects a net increase in the level of fixed income instruments in our Public Markets investment vehicles.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense was $47.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $12.7 million, compared to $34.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to an increase in debt obligations in connection with the issuance of our 2043 Senior Notes on February 1, 2013.

Income (Loss) Before Taxes

 

Due to the factors described above, principally a lower level of net gains from investment activities, income before taxes was $2.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $2.1 billion, compared to income before taxes of $4.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests was $16.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $8.2 million, compared to $8.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase primarily reflects an increase in the investment values of investment vehicles that allow for redemptions by their limited partners.

 

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

 

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $2.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $1.9 billion, compared to $4.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily driven by the overall changes in the components of net gains (losses) from investment activities described above.

Fees

 

Fees were $139.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $9.2 million, compared to fees of $130.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The net increase was primarily due to an increase in transaction fees of $14.5 million, largely offset by an increase in fee credits of $13.9 million, and an increase in management fees of $7.5 million. The increase in transaction fees was primarily attributable to an increase in the size of fee-generating investments completed. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, there were six transaction fee-generating investments with a total combined transaction value of approximately $2.5 billion compared to five transaction fee-generating investments with a total combined transaction value of approximately $0.7 billion during the three months ended June 30, 2012. Transaction fees vary by investment based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are transaction size, the particular discussions as to the amount of the fees, the complexity of the transaction and KKR’s role in the transaction. The increase in fee credits is primarily attributable to the increase in transaction fees, as described above. The increase in management fees is primarily attributable to the KKR North America Fund XI and KKR Asian Fund II commencing their investment periods, partially offset by the KKR 2006 Fund and KKR Asian Fund entering their post-investment periods with a lower management fee. As of June 30, 2013, FPAUM excluded approximately $0.6 billion of unallocated commitments

from a strategic partnership with a state pension plan and $3.0 billion in connection with infrastructure, natural resources, private equity and co-investment vehicles for which we are currently not earning management fees. Additionally, subsequent to June 30, 2013 we raised an additional $0.5 billion of commitments in our KKR North America Fund XI. The inclusion of these amounts in FPAUM in future periods will be accretive to our fees.

 

Expenses

 

Expenses were $96.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $2.7 million, compared to expenses of $93.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in compensation and benefits in connection with increased headcount, partially offset by a decrease in other operating expenses due to lower organization costs relating to the formation of new investment vehicles.

 

Fee Related Earnings

 

Fee related earnings were $42.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $6.4 million, compared to fee related earnings of $36.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was due to the increase in fees, partially offset by the increase in expenses as described above.

 

Investment Income (Loss)

 

Investment income was $29.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $109.1 million, compared to investment income of $138.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. This decrease was primarily driven by a lower level of net carried interest resulting from a lower level of net appreciation in our private equity portfolio in the current period when compared to the prior period.

 

Realized carried interest for the three months ended June 30, 2013 consisted primarily of realized gains from the partial sale of Dollar General Corporation, the sale of Intelligence Ltd. and the partial sale of China Modern Dairy Holdings Ltd. (HK: 1117).

 

Realized carried interest for the three months ended June 30, 2012 consisted primarily of realized gains from the partial sale of Dollar General Corporation and the sale of El Paso Midstream (energy sector).

(a)                     The above table excludes any funds for which there was no unrealized carried interest during either of the periods presented, which for the three months ended June 30, 2013, consisted of the North America Fund XI and Asian Fund II.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the unrealized carried interest loss of $212.8 million included $232.4 million primarily representing reversals of previously recognized net unrealized gains in the connection with the occurrence of realization events such as partial or full sales, partially offset by $19.6 million, reflecting net increases in the value of various portfolio companies.

 

The reversals of previously recognized net unrealized gains resulted primarily from the partial sales of Dollar General Corporation, the sale of Intelligence Ltd. and the partial sale of China Modern Dairy Holdings Ltd. During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, we wrote off PagesJaunes Group (media sector) (currently known as Solocal Group SA (FRA: QS3), excluding a de minimis retained interest) and sold Seven West Media Ltd. (AX: SWM) and realized a loss. Neither of these two events had a significant impact on our net carried interest.

 

The share prices of various publicly held investments had a net decrease in value of $40.3 million, the most significant of which were losses on HCA, Inc., Kion Group AG, and The Nielsen Company B.V. These decreases were partially offset by increased share prices of various publicly held investments, the most significant of which was Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Our private portfolio had a net increase in value of $59.9 million, most significantly from unrealized gains relating to Alliance Boots GmbH, ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG and Oriental Brewery. The unrealized gains on our private portfolio were partially offset by unrealized losses relating primarily to A.T.U Auto-Teile-Unger, BIS Industries Ltd. and GenesisCare. The increased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to an increase in the value of market comparables and individual company performance. The decreased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to individual company performance or, in certain cases, an unfavorable business outlook.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the net unrealized carried interest of $226.2 million included $272.2 million reflecting net increases in the value of various portfolio companies which were partially offset by $46.0 million primarily representing reversals of previously recognized net unrealized gains in the connection with the occurrence of realization events such as partial or full sales.

 

Increased share prices of various publicly held investments comprised approximately 10% of the net increase in value, the most significant of which were gains on Dollar General Corporation and HCA, Inc. These increases were partially offset by decreased share prices of various publicly held investments, the most significant of which were Seven Media Group, The Nielsen Company B.V., and NXP Semiconductors N.V. Our private portfolio contributed the remainder of the change in value, the most significant of which were gains relating to Alliance Boots GmbH and to a lesser extent Tarkett S.A. The unrealized gains on our private portfolio were partially offset by unrealized losses relating primarily to ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG and Toys R Us, Inc. The increased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to (i) an increase in the value of market comparables and individual company performance and (ii) in the case of Alliance Boots GmbH, an increase that reflected the valuation of an agreement executed in the second quarter of 2012 to sell a portion of the investment. The decreased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to individual company performance or, in certain cases, an unfavorable business outlook.

 

The reversals of previously recognized net unrealized gains resulted primarily from the partial sale of Dollar General Corporation and sale of El Paso Midstream.

 

Management fee refunds amounted to $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $28.1 million, as compared to $32.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease in management fee refunds primarily reflects an increased level of accrued carried interest in European Fund II in the second quarter of 2012 which triggered the recognition of a higher level of management fee refunds in the prior period.

 

Economic Net Income

 

Economic net income in our Private Markets segment was $72.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $102.7 million, compared to economic net income of $174.7 million for the three months ended

June 30, 2012. The decrease in investment income was the primary contributor to the period over period decrease in economic net income, partially offset by the increase in fee related earnings as described above.

AUM for the Private Markets segment was $54.5 billion at June 30, 2013, an increase of $4.2 billion, compared to $50.3 billion at March 31, 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised of $6.7 billion relating primarily to Asian Fund II commencing its investment period at which time it began recognizing management fees, which was partially offset by $2.7 billion in distributions in our private equity portfolio companies comprised of $1.8 billion of realized gains and $0.9 billion of return of original cost.

 

The net unrealized investment gains in our Private Markets portfolio were driven primarily by net unrealized gains of $0.2 billion and $0.1 billion in our 2006 Fund and European Fund II, respectively. Our share prices of various publicly held investments had a net decrease in value, the most significant of which were losses on HCA, Inc., Kion Group AG, and The Nielsen Company B.V. These decreases were partially offset by increased share prices of various publicly held investments, the most significant of which was Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Our private portfolio contributed an overall increase in value, the most significant of which were gains relating to Alliance Boots GmbH, ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG and Oriental Brewery. The unrealized gains on our private portfolio were partially offset by unrealized losses relating primarily to A.T.U Auto-Teile-Unger, BIS Industries Ltd. and GenesisCare. The increased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to an increase in the value of market comparables and individual company performance. The decreased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to individual company performance or, in certain cases, an unfavorable business outlook.

 

As of June 30, 2013, our AUM excluded approximately $0.6 billion of unallocated commitments from a strategic partnership with a state pension plan and $3.0 billion in connection with other infrastructure, natural resources, private equity and co-investment vehicles for which we are currently not earning management fees. Additionally, subsequent to June 30, 2013 we raised an additional $0.5 billion of commitments in our KKR North America Fund XI. Such commitments will not contribute to AUM until we are entitled to receive fees or carried interest in accordance with our definition of AUM.

FPAUM in our Private Markets segment was $45.9 billion at June 30, 2013, an increase of $4.7 billion, compared to $41.2 billion from March 31, 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised of $6.4 billion relating primarily to Asian Fund II commencing its investment period at which time it began recognizing management fees. The increase was partially offset by $1.1 billion in distributions to the limited partners of our Private Markets funds arising from realizations and a reduction of $0.7 billion reflecting the impact of certain funds entering the post-investment period.

 

Committed Dollars Invested

 

Committed dollars invested were $1.3 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $0.7 billion, compared to committed dollars invested of $0.6 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was due to an increase in the number and size of private equity investments closed during the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared with three months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Uncalled Commitments

 

As of June 30, 2013, our Private Markets Segment had $20.0 billion of remaining uncalled capital commitments that could be called for investments in new transactions.

 

Six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to six months ended June 30, 2012

 

Fees

 

Fees were $273.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $16.6 million, compared to fees of $256.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The net increase was primarily due to an increase in transaction fees of $19.2 million, an increase in monitoring fees of $7.4 million and an increase in management fees of $7.2 million, partially offset by an increase in fee credits of $17.2 million. The increase in transaction fees was primarily the result of an increase in both the number and size of fee-generating investments completed. In the six months ended June 30, 2013, there were 12 transaction fee-generating investments with a total combined transaction value of approximately $3.3 billion compared to seven transaction fee-generating investments with a combined transaction value of approximately $1.9 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Transaction fees vary by investment based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are transaction size, the particular discussions as to the amount of the fees, the complexity of the transaction and KKR’s role in the transaction. The increase in monitoring fees was the result of a termination of monitoring fee arrangement in connection with the sale of Intelligence Ltd. of $4.8 million, which impacted fee related earnings by approximately $1.0 million after associated fee credits, and an increase in recurring monitoring fees reflecting the acquisition of new portfolio companies and the disposition of other portfolio companies resulting in an increase in the average size of recurring monitoring fees. Termination payments may occur in the future; however, they are infrequent in nature and are generally correlated with IPO or other sale activity in our private equity portfolio. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we had 38 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $1.5 million compared with 38 portfolio companies that were paying an average monitoring fee of $1.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in fee credits is primarily attributable to the increase in transaction and monitoring fees, as described above. The increase in management fees is primarily attributable to the KKR North America Fund XI and KKR Asian Fund II commencing their investment periods, partially offset by the KKR 2006 Fund and KKR Asian Fund entering their post-investment periods with a lower management fee. As of June 30, 2013, FPAUM excluded approximately $0.6 billion of unallocated commitments from a strategic partnership with a state pension plan and

Additionally, subsequent to June 30, 2013 we raised an additional $0.5 billion of commitments in our KKR North America Fund XI. The inclusion of these amounts in FPAUM in future periods will be accretive to our fees.

 

Expenses

 

Expenses were $190.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $7.2 million, compared to expenses of $182.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in compensation and benefits in connection with increased headcount.

 

Fee Related Earnings

 

Fee related earnings were $83.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $9.4 million, compared to fee related earnings of $74.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was due to the increase in fees, partially offset by the increase in expenses as described above.

 

Investment Income (Loss)

 

Investment income was $256.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $112.6 million, compared to investment income of $368.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily driven by a lower level of net carried interest resulting from a lower level of net appreciation in our private equity portfolio in the current period when compared to the prior period.

 

Realized carried interest for the six months ended June 30, 2013 consisted primarily of realized gains from partial sales of Dollar General Corporation and HCA, Inc. and the sale of Intelligence Ltd.

 

Realized carried interest for the six months ended June 30, 2012 consisted primarily of realized gains from the sale of Legrand Holdings S.A. (ENXTPA: LR), the partial sale of Dollar General Corporation and the sale of El Paso Midstream.

(a)                     The above table excludes any funds for which there was no unrealized carried interest during either of the periods presented, which for the six months ended June 30, 2013, consisted of the North America Fund XI and Asian Fund II.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the unrealized carried interest of $98.0 million included $398.1 million reflecting net increases in the value of various portfolio companies which were partially offset by $300.1 million primarily representing reversals of previously recognized net unrealized gains in the connection with the occurrence of realization events such as partial or full sales.

 

Increased share prices of various publicly held investments comprised approximately 36% of the net increase in value, the most significant of which were gains on HCA, Inc., NXP Semiconductors N.V. and TDC A/S. These increases were partially offset by decreased share prices of various publicly held investments, the most significant of which were Far East Horizon Ltd., Kion Group AG and Bharti Infratel Ltd. Our private portfolio contributed the remainder of the change in value, the most significant of which were gains relating to Alliance Boots GmbH, Academy Sports and Outdoors and Intelligence Ltd. The unrealized gains on our private portfolio were partially offset by unrealized losses relating primarily to U.N RO-RO Isletmeleri A.S., A.T.U Auto-Teile-Unger and U.S. Foods. The increased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to an increase (i) in the value of market comparables and individual company performance, (ii) in the case of Alliance Boots GmbH, in part due to the increase in the value of a publicly traded stock that may be delivered pursuant to a previously announced transaction and (iii) in the case of Intelligence Ltd., an increase that primarily reflected the valuation of an agreement to sell the investment that was executed in March 2013. The decreased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to individual company performance or, in certain cases, an unfavorable business outlook.

 

The reversals of previously recognized net unrealized gains resulted primarily from the partial sales of Dollar General Corporation and HCA, Inc. and the sale of Intelligence Ltd. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we wrote off PagesJaunes Group and sold Seven West Media Ltd. and realized a loss. Neither of these two events had a significant impact on our net carried interest.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the net unrealized carried interest of $605.8 million included $721.6 million reflecting net increases in the value of various portfolio companies which were partially offset by $115.8 million primarily representing reversals of previously recognized net unrealized gains in the connection with the occurrence of realization events such as partial or full sales.

 

Increased share prices of various publicly held investments comprised approximately 31% of the net increase in value, the most significant of which were gains on Dollar General Corporation and HCA, Inc. These increases were partially offset by decreased share prices of various publicly held investments, the most significant of which were Seven Media Group, The Nielsen Company B.V. and Far Eastern Horizon Ltd. Our private portfolio contributed the remainder of the change in value, the most significant of which were gains relating Alliance Boots GmbH and to a lesser extent First Data Corporation and Academy Sports and Outdoors. The unrealized gains on our private portfolio were partially offset by unrealized losses relating primarily to ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG, Del Monte Foods Company, and Ambea AB. The increased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to an increase (i) in the value of market comparables and individual company performance and (ii) in the case of Alliance Boots GmbH, an increase that reflected the valuation of an agreement executed in the second quarter of 2012 to sell the investment. The decreased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to individual company performance or, in certain cases, an unfavorable business outlook.

 

The reversals of previously recognized net unrealized gains resulted primarily from the partial sale of Dollar General Corporation, the sale of Legrand Holdings S.A. and the sale of El Paso Midstream.

 

Management fee refunds amounted to $14.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $59.5 million, as compared to $73.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease in management fee refunds primarily reflects an increased level of accrued carried interest in the European Fund II in the six months ended June 30, 2012 which triggered the recognition of a higher level of management fee refunds in the prior period.

Economic Net Income

 

Economic net income in our Private Markets segment was $338.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $101.4 million, compared to economic net income of $440.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease in investment income and increase in expenses described above were the contributors to the period over period decrease in economic net income, partially offset by the increase in fee related earnings as described above.

AUM for the Private Markets segment was $54.5 billion at June 30, 2013, an increase of $5.4 billion, compared to $49.1 billion at December 31, 2012. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised of $7.6 billion relating primarily to Asian Fund II commencing its investment period at which time it began recognizing management fees and appreciation in the market value of our private equity portfolio of $2.4 billion. The increases were partially offset by $4.5 billion in distributions in our private equity portfolio companies comprised of $2.7 billion of realized gains and $1.8 billion of return of original cost.

 

The net unrealized investment gains in our Private Markets portfolio were driven primarily by net unrealized gains of $1.1 billion, $0.4 billion and $0.3 billion in our 2006 Fund, Millennium Fund and Asian Fund respectively. Approximately 36% of the net change in value for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was attributable to changes in share prices of various publicly-listed investments, most notably increases in HCA, Inc., NXP Semiconductors N.V., TDC A/S and Dollar General Corporation, partially offset by decreases relating to Far East Horizon Ltd., Kion Group AG and Bharti Infratel Ltd. Our private portfolio contributed the remainder of the change in value, with the largest contributors being unrealized gains relating to Alliance Boots GmbH, Academy Sports and Outdoors and Intelligence Ltd. The unrealized gains on our private portfolio were partially offset by unrealized losses relating primarily to U.N RO-RO Isletmeleri A.S., A.T.U Auto-Teile-Unger and U.S. Foods. The increased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to an increase (i) in the value of market comparables and individual company performance, (ii) in the case of Alliance Boots GmbH, in part due to the increase in the value of a publicly traded stock that may be delivered pursuant to a previously announced transaction and (iii) in the case of Intelligence Ltd., an increase that primarily reflected the valuation of an agreement to sell the investment that was executed in March 2013. The decreased valuations, in the aggregate, generally related to individual company performance or, in certain cases, an unfavorable business outlook.

 

As of June 30, 2013, our AUM excluded approximately $0.6 billion of unallocated commitments from a strategic partnership with a state pension plan, and $3.0 billion in connection with other infrastructure, natural resources, private equity and co-investment vehicles for which we are currently not earning management fees. Additionally, subsequent to June 30, 2013 we raised an additional $0.5 billion of commitments in our KKR North America Fund XI. Such commitments will not contribute to AUM until we are entitled to receive fees or carried interest in accordance with our definition of AUM.

FPAUM in our Private Markets segment was $45.9 billion at June 30, 2013, an increase of $4.7 billion, compared to $41.2 billion at December 31, 2012. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised of $7.4 billion relating primarily to Asian Fund II commencing its investment period at which time it began recognizing management fees, which was partially offset by distributions of $2.0 billion to the limited partners of our Private Markets funds and a reduction of $0.7 billion reflecting the impact of certain funds entering the post-investment period.

 

Committed Dollars Invested

 

Committed dollars invested were $1.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $0.7 billion compared to $1.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was due to an increase in the number and size of private equity investments closed during the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared with three six ended June 30, 2012.

 

Uncalled Commitments

 

As of June 30, 2013, our Private Markets Segment had $20.0 billion of remaining uncalled capital commitments that could be called for investments in new transactions.

Fees were $67.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $40.3 million, compared to fees of $26.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in management fees of $27.0 million and incentive fees of $11.5 million. The increase in management fees is due primarily to the acquisition of Prisma and to a lesser extent new capital raised. The increase in incentive fees is due primarily to an increase in incentive fees received from Prisma, which was not part of the KKR platform during the three months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Expenses

 

Expenses were $32.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $18.3 million, compared to expenses of $14.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

Economic net income was $89.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $58.9 million, compared to economic net income of $30.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Fees were $30.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $1.3 million, compared to fees of $31.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. While we completed a greater number of capital markets transactions in the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012, transaction fees decreased primarily due to smaller overall transaction sizes of syndicated equity for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Overall, we completed 34 capital markets transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2013 of which 5 represented equity offerings and 29 represented debt offerings, as compared to 21 transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2012 of which 3 represented equity offerings and 18 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 segment 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 collect for like transactions generally correlates with overall transaction sizes. Our capital markets business is dependent on the overall capital markets environment, which is influenced by equity prices, credit spreads and volatility.

Expenses

 

Expenses were $9.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $1.3 million, compared to expenses of $10.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was largely due to a decrease in other operating expenses of $0.7 million and a decrease in compensation and benefits expense of $0.6 million.

 

Fee Related Earnings

 

Fee related earnings were $21.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, which was unchanged from the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease in fees was offset by a decrease in expenses as described above.

 

Investment Income (Loss)

 

Investment income was $11.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $332.8 million, compared to investment income of $344.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The following table reflects the components of investment income (loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

While the fair value of our principal investments appreciated slightly during the second quarter of 2013, the level of appreciation was lower than in the comparable period of 2012.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, net realized losses were comprised of $250.1 million of realized losses from the sale and write-off of private equity investments, including the write-off of PagesJaunes Group. These realized losses were partially offset by $192.8 million of realized gains primarily from the sales of Dollar General Corporation, The Nielsen Company B.V. and Intelligence Ltd. The net unrealized gains related primarily to reversals of unrealized losses on the write-off of PagesJaunes Group, partially offset by reversals of unrealized gains on the sale of Dollar General Corporation, The Nielsen Company B.V. and Intelligence Ltd. Net increases in value were not a significant component of net unrealized gains for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, net realized gains were comprised of $295.1 million of realized gains primarily from the partial sale of private equity investments, the most significant of which were Dollar General Corporation and The Nielsen Company B.V.  These realized gains were partially offset by $5.2 million of realized losses primarily related to non-private equity investments held by our balance sheet. The net unrealized gains related primarily to increases in the value of various private equity investments, most notably Alliance Boots GmbH, and to a lesser extent HCA, Inc. and Dollar General Corporation, partially offset by unrealized losses on The Nielsen Company B.V., NXP Semiconductors N.V. and ProSiebenSat1 Media AG, as well as reversals of previously

recognized net unrealized gains in the connection with the occurrence of realization events such as partial or full sales of investments. For further discussion of private equity valuation changes, refer to “— Private Markets Segment.”

 

Economic Net Income (Loss)

 

Economic net income was $31.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $332.6 million, compared to economic net income of $364.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease in investment income described above was the primary contributor to the period over period decrease in economic net income.

 

Syndicated Capital

 

Syndicated capital was $204.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 reflecting the syndication of capital in our Private Markets and Public Markets businesses. There was no syndicated capital for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to six months ended June 30, 2012

 

Fees

 

Fees were $51.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $10.7 million, compared to fees of $61.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  While we completed a greater number of capital markets transactions in the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012, transaction fees decreased primarily due to smaller overall transaction sizes of syndicated equity for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Overall, we completed 66 capital markets transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2013 of which 8 represented equity offerings and 58 represented debt offerings, as compared to 46 transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2012 of which 7 represented equity offerings and 39 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 segment 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 collect for like transactions generally correlates with overall transaction sizes. Our capital markets business is dependent on the overall capital markets environment, which is influenced by equity prices, credit spreads and volatility.

 

Expenses

 

Expenses were $19.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $0.6 million, compared to expenses of $20.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to a $0.6 million decrease in other operating expenses related to lower overall expenses.

 

Fee Related Earnings

 

Fee related earnings were $31.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $10.2 million, compared to fee related earnings of $41.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. This decrease was primarily related to the decrease in fees as described above.

 

Investment Income (Loss)

 

Investment income was $333.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $429.0 million, compared to investment income of $762.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

While the fair value of our principal investments increased during the first half 2013, the level of appreciation was lower than in the comparable period of 2012.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, net realized gains were comprised of $348.7 million of realized gains primarily from the sale of private equity investments, including the partial sales of Dollar General Corporation, HCA, Inc. and The Nielsen Company B.V. These realized gains were partially offset by $252.3 million of realized losses primarily related to the sale and write-off of private equity investments, including the write-off of PagesJaunes Group. The net unrealized gains related primarily to (i) increases in the value of various private equity investments, most notably HCA, Inc., ProSiebenSat1 Media AG, and Alliance Boots GmbH and (ii) reversal of unrealized losses on the write-off of PagesJaunes Group, offset by reversals of gains on sales of Dollar General Corporation, HCA, Inc., and The Nielsen Company B.V. For further discussion of private equity valuation changes, refer to “— Private Markets Segment.”

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, net realized gains were comprised of $310.0 million of realized gains primarily from the sale of private equity investments, the most significant of which were our remaining interest in Legrand Holdings S.A., as well as partial sales of Dollar General Corporation and The Nielsen Company B.V.  These realized gains were partially offset by $8.1 million of realized losses primarily related to non-private equity investments held by our balance sheet. The net unrealized gains related primarily to increases in the value of various private equity investments, most notably Alliance Boots GmbH, and to a lesser extent HCA, Inc., Dollar General Corporation and NXP Semiconductors N.V., partially offset by unrealized losses on Energy Future Holdings Corp. (energy sector), The Nielsen Company B.V., and ProSiebenSat1 Media AG, as well as reversals of previously recognized net unrealized gains in the connection with the occurrence of realization events such as partial or full sales of investments. For further discussion of private equity valuation changes, refer to “— Private Markets Segment.”

 

Economic Net Income (Loss)

 

Economic net income was $363.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $438.8 million, compared to economic net income of $802.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease in investment income described above was the primary contributor to the period over period decrease in economic net income.

 

Syndicated Capital

 

Syndicated capital was $265.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $15.0 million compared to syndicated capital of $250.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase is primarily due to an increase in the number and size of syndication transactions when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Liquidity

 

We manage our liquidity and capital requirements by focusing on our cash flows before the consolidation of our funds and the effect of normal changes in short term assets and liabilities, which we anticipate will be settled for cash within one year. Our primary cash flow activities on an unconsolidated basis typically involve: (i) generating cash flow from operations; (ii) generating income from investment activities, including the sale of investments and other principal assets; (iii) funding capital commitments that we have made to our funds, (iv) developing and funding new investment strategies, investment products and other growth initiatives, including acquisitions; (v) underwriting commitments within our capital markets business; (vi) distributing cash flow to our fund investors and unitholders; and (vii) borrowings, interest payments and repayments under credit agreements, our senior notes and other borrowing arrangements. As of June 30, 2013, we had cash and short-term investments on a segment basis of $1,994.8 million.

 

Sources of Liquidity

 

Our primary sources of liquidity consist of amounts received from: (i) our operating activities, including the fees earned from our funds, managed accounts, portfolio companies, capital markets transactions and other investment products; (ii) realizations on carried interest from our investment funds; (iii) realizations on and sales of investments and other principal assets; and (iv) borrowings under our credit facilities, debt offerings and other borrowing arrangements. In addition, we may generate cash proceeds from sales of our common units described below.

 

With respect to our private equity funds, carried interest is distributed to the general partner of a private equity fund with a clawback or net loss sharing 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; 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, 2013, 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, 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 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 realization event, which includes funds with no netting holes as well as funds with a netting hole that is sufficiently small in size such that the next realization event would be expected to result in the payment of carried interest.

 

As of June 30, 2013, netting holes existed at certain of our private equity funds, the most significant of which was our European Fund II, which had a netting hole of approximately $631 million. In accordance with the criteria set forth above, funds currently in position to pay cash carry may develop netting holes in the future and netting holes for those and other funds may otherwise increase or decrease in the future. As of June 30, 2013, no private equity funds in cash carry paying position had a netting hole greater than $50 million.

 

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

 

Revolving Credit Agreements

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, there were no borrowings made, and as of June 30, 2013, no borrowings were outstanding under either of the revolving credit agreements described below, except for a letter of credit under the Corporate Credit Agreement described further below. We may, however, utilize these facilities prospectively in the normal course of our operations.

 

·                  On February 26, 2008, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. entered into a credit agreement with a major financial institution (the “Corporate Credit Agreement”). The Corporate Credit Agreement originally provided for revolving borrowings of up to $1.0 billion, with a $50.0 million sublimit for swing-line notes and a $25.0 million sublimit for letters of credit. On February 22, 2011, the parties amended the terms of the Corporate Credit Agreement such that effective March 1, 2011, availability for borrowings under the credit facility was reduced from $1.0 billion to $700 million and the maturity was extended to March 1, 2016. In addition, the KKR Group Partnerships became co-borrowers of the facility, and KKR & Co. L.P. and the issuer of the 2020 Senior Notes (discussed below) became guarantors of the Corporate Credit Agreement, together with certain general partners of our private equity funds. On June 3, 2011, the Corporate Credit Agreement was amended to admit a new lender, subject to the same terms and conditions, to provide a commitment of $50 million. This commitment increased the availability for borrowings under the credit facility to $750 million. On June 22, 2012, KKR requested the issuance of a letter of credit in the amount of $14.5 million under the Corporate Credit Agreement. The beneficiary of this letter of credit is an unaffiliated third party. The letter of credit was issued on July 2, 2012 and initially set to expire on July 3, 2013. On August 20, 2012, the letter of credit in connection with this fee-generating transaction was increased to $20.0 million and the expiration date was extended to August 1, 2013. On July 23, 2013, the expiration date was extended to August 1, 2014. A $5.0 million sublimit for letters of credit remains available under the Corporate Credit Agreement.

 

·                  On February 27, 2008, KKR Capital Markets entered into a credit agreement with a major financial institution (the “KCM Credit Agreement”) for use in KKR’s capital markets business. The KCM Credit Agreement, as amended, provides for revolving borrowings of up to $500 million with a

 

97



Table of Contents

 

$500 million sublimit for letters of credit. On March 30, 2012, an agreement was made to extend the maturity of the KCM Credit Agreement from February 27, 2013 to March 30, 2017. In addition to extending the terms, certain other terms of the KCM Credit Agreement were renegotiated including a reduction of the cost of funding on amounts drawn and a reduced commitment fee. Borrowings under this facility may only be used for our capital markets business.

 

Senior Notes

 

·                  On September 29, 2010, KKR Group Finance Co. LLC, a subsidiary of KKR Management Holdings Corp., issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.375% Senior Notes (the “2020 Senior Notes”), which were issued at a price of 99.584%. The 2020 Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the issuer and will mature on September 29, 2020, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. The 2020 Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by KKR & Co. L.P. and the KKR Group Partnerships. The guarantees are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the guarantors. The 2020 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.375% per annum, accruing from September 29, 2010. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 29 and September 29 of each year.

 

The indenture, as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture, relating to the 2020 Senior Notes includes covenants, including limitations on the issuer’s and the guarantors’ ability to, subject to exceptions, incur indebtedness secured by liens on voting stock or profit participating equity interests of their subsidiaries or merge, consolidate or sell, transfer or lease assets. The indenture, as supplemented, also provides for events of default and further provides that the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2020 Senior Notes may declare the 2020 Senior Notes immediately due and payable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any event of default after expiration of any applicable grace period. In the case of specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or reorganization, the principal amount of the 2020 Senior Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest on the 2020 Senior Notes automatically becomes due and payable. All or a portion of the 2020 Senior Notes may be redeemed at the issuer’s option in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, prior to their stated maturity, at the make-whole redemption price set forth in the 2020 Senior Notes. If a change of control repurchase event occurs, the 2020 Senior Notes are subject to repurchase by the issuer at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Senior Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the 2020 Senior Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

 

·                  On February 1, 2013, KKR Group Finance Co. II LLC, a subsidiary of KKR Management Holdings Corp., issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Notes (the “2043 Senior Notes”), which were issued at a price of 98.856%. The 2043 Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the issuer and will mature on February 1, 2043, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. The 2043 Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by KKR & Co. L.P. and the KKR Group Partnerships. The guarantees are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the guarantors. The 2043 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.50% per annum, accruing from February 1, 2013. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing on August 1, 2013.

 

The indenture, as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture, relating to the 2043 Senior Notes includes covenants, including limitations on the issuer’s and the guarantors’ ability to, subject to exceptions, incur indebtedness secured by liens on voting stock or profit participating equity interests of their subsidiaries or merge, consolidate or sell, transfer or lease assets. The indenture, as supplemented, also provides for events of default and further provides that the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2043 Senior Notes may declare the 2043 Senior Notes immediately due and payable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any event of default after expiration of any applicable grace period. In the case of specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or reorganization, the principal amount of the 2043 Senior Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest on the 2043 Senior Notes automatically becomes due and payable. All or a portion of the 2043 Senior Notes may be redeemed at the issuer’s option in whole or in part, at

any time, and from time to time, prior to their stated maturity, at the make-whole redemption price set forth in the 2043 Senior Notes. If a change of control repurchase event occurs, the 2043 Senior Notes are subject to repurchase by the issuer at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2043 Senior Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the 2043 Senior Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

 

Common Units

 

·                  On March 27, 2012, KKR & Co. L.P. filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the sale by us from time to time of up to 1,500,000 common units of KKR & Co. L.P. to generate cash proceeds up to (i) the amount of withholding taxes, social benefit payments or similar payments payable by us in respect of awards granted pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan, and (ii) the amount of cash delivered in respect of awards granted pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan that are settled in cash instead of common units. The administrator of the Equity Incentive Plan is expected to reduce the maximum number of common units eligible to be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan by the number of common units issued and sold pursuant to the registration statement unless such reduction is already provided for with respect to such awards under the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan. The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statement effective on April 11, 2012. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, 187,260 common units were issued and sold under the registration statement and are included in our basic common units outstanding as of June 30, 2013. All common units registered under this registration statement have been issued and sold as of June 30, 2013.

 

·                  In addition, on April 4, 2013, KKR & Co. L.P. filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the sale by us from time to time of up to an additional 2,500,000 common units for a substantially similar purpose. The administrator of the Equity Incentive Plan is expected to reduce the maximum number of common units eligible to be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan by the number of common units issued and sold pursuant to the registration statement unless such reduction is already provided for with respect to such awards under the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan. The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statement effective on May 6, 2013. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, 844,073 common units were issued and sold under the registration statement and are included in our basic common units outstanding as of June 30, 2013.

 

Liquidity Needs

 

We expect that our primary liquidity needs will consist of cash required to: (i) continue to grow our business, including seeding new strategies and funding our capital commitments made to existing and future funds, co-investments and any net capital requirements of our capital markets companies; (ii) service debt obligations that may give rise to future cash payments; (iii) fund cash operating expenses; (iv) pay amounts that may become due under our tax receivable agreement with KKR Holdings as described below; (v) make cash distributions in accordance with our distribution policy; (vi) underwrite commitments within our capital markets business and (vii) acquire additional principal assets, including the acquisition of other investment advisory and capital markets businesses. We may also require cash to fund contingent obligations including those under clawback, net loss sharing arrangements, contingent purchase price payments in connection with our acquisitions of or investments in equity stakes in other businesses or obligations in connection with the defense, prosecution, or settlement of legal claims. See “—Liquidity—Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies on an Unconsolidated Basis.” We believe that the sources of liquidity described above will be sufficient to fund our working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months.

 

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 usually range from 2% to 4% of a fund’s total capital commitments at final closing. In addition, we are responsible for certain limited partner interests in some of our private equity funds. The following table presents our uncalled commitments to our active investment funds as of June 30, 2013:

As of June 30, 2013, KKR had unfunded commitments consisting of (i) $786.6 million to its active private equity and other investment vehicles, (ii) $257.6 million in connection with commitments by KKR’s capital markets business and (iii) $150.0 million relating to MerchCap Solutions as described below. Whether these amounts are actually funded, in whole or in part depends on the terms of such commitments, including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions to funding.

 

In addition to the commitments described above, KKR has earmarked approximately $980 million to fund, acquire and develop new strategies, products and initiatives including natural resources, real estate, alternative credit and other strategies. The amounts earmarked to fund and develop new strategies, products and initiatives may be revised or terminated by KKR in its discretion from time to time.

 

Prisma Capital Partners

 

On October 1, 2012, KKR acquired all of the equity interests of Prisma. KKR may become obligated to make future purchase price payments in the years 2014 and 2017 based on whether the Prisma business grows to achieve certain operating performance metrics when measured in such years. KKR has the right in its sole discretion to pay a portion of such future purchase price payments, if any, in KKR & Co. L.P. common units rather than in cash.

 

MerchCap Solutions

 

MerchCap Solutions LLC (“MCS”, formerly known as “KKR—SPC Merchant Advisors LLC”) is a joint venture partnership with Stone Point Capital (“Stone Point”) and CPPIB Credit Investments, Inc. (“CPPIB”). MCS seeks to provide capital markets services to mid-market and sponsor-backed companies as well as make certain principal investments to support client needs. KKR and Stone Point each committed $150 million of equity and CPPIB committed an additional $50 million to MCS to support its business. KKR expects that certain capital markets activities for third parties (other than KKR and its Portfolio Companies) will be principally conducted by MCS.

Tax Receivable Agreement

 

We and certain intermediate holding companies that are taxable corporations for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes, may be required to acquire KKR Group Partnership Units from time to time pursuant to our exchange agreement with KKR Holdings. KKR Management Holdings L.P. made an election under Section 754 of the Internal Revenue Code that will remain in effect for each taxable year in which an exchange of KKR Group Partnership Units for common units occurs, which may result in an increase in our intermediate holding companies’ share of the tax basis of the assets of the KKR Group Partnerships at the time of an exchange of KKR Group Partnership Units. Certain of these exchanges are expected to result in an increase in our intermediate holding companies’ share of the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of the KKR Group Partnerships, primarily attributable to a portion of the goodwill inherent in our business that would not otherwise have been available. This increase in tax basis may increase depreciation and amortization deductions for tax purposes and therefore reduce the amount of income tax our intermediate holding companies would otherwise be required to pay in the future. This increase in tax basis may also decrease gain (or increase loss) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets.

 

We have entered into a tax receivable agreement with KKR Holdings, which requires our intermediate holding companies to pay to KKR Holdings, or to executives who have exchanged KKR Holdings units for KKR common units 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 the intermediate holding companies realize as a result of the increase in tax basis described above, as well as 85% of the amount of any such savings the intermediate holding companies realize as a result of increases in tax basis that arise due to future payments under the agreement. A termination of the agreement or a change of control could give rise to similar payments based on tax savings that we would be deemed to realize in connection with such events. In the event that other of our current or future subsidiaries become taxable as corporations and acquire KKR Group Partnership Units in the future, or if we become taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we expect that each will become subject to a tax receivable agreement with substantially similar terms.

 

These payment obligations are obligations of our intermediate holding companies and not the KKR Group Partnerships. As such, cash payments received by common unitholders may vary from those received by current and former holders of KKR Group Partnership Units (held by KKR Holdings and our principals) to the extent payments are made to those parties under the tax receivable agreement. Payments made under the tax receivable agreement are required to be made within 90 days of the filing of the tax returns of our intermediate holding companies, which may result in a timing difference between the tax savings received by KKR’s intermediate holdings companies and the cash payments made to the selling holders of KKR Group Partnership Units.

 

As of June 30, 2013, approximately $2.9 million of cumulative cash payments have been made under the tax receivable agreement. We expect our intermediate holding companies to benefit from the remaining 15% of cash savings, if any, in income tax that they realize. As of June 30, 2013, $0.5 million of cumulative income tax savings have been realized.

 

Distributions

 

In April 2013, we amended our distribution policy to provide for the quarterly distribution of a percentage of net realized principal investment income as described below. The distribution of net realized principal investment income replaces the annual, additional distribution that was historically announced in connection with fourth quarter earnings.  This additional distribution was intended to cover certain tax liabilities, as calculated by us, and as a result of the change in distribution policy, we expect that such additional distributions will no longer be made, although the board of directors of the general partner of KKR & Co. L.P. may decide otherwise from time to time.

 

We intend to make quarterly cash distributions in amounts that in the aggregate are expected to constitute substantially all of the cash earnings of our investment management business and 40% of the net cash income from our realized principal investments, in each case in excess of amounts determined by us to be necessary or appropriate to provide for the conduct of our business, to make appropriate investments in our business and our investment funds and to comply with applicable law and any of our debt instruments or other obligations. For purposes of our distribution policy, distributions are expected to consist of (i) FRE, (ii) carry distributions received

 

101



Table of Contents

 

from our investment funds which have not been allocated as part of its carry pool and (iii) a percentage of net realized principal investment income. This amount is expected to be reduced by (i) corporate and applicable local taxes, if any, (ii) non-controlling interests, and (iii) amounts determined by us to be necessary or appropriate for the conduct of our business and other matters as discussed above.

 

The declaration and payment of any distributions are subject to the discretion of the board of directors of the general partner of KKR & Co. L.P., which may change the distribution policy at any time, and the terms of its limited partnership agreement. There can be no assurance that distributions will be made as intended or at all or that unitholders will receive sufficient distributions to satisfy payment of their tax liabilities as limited partners of KKR & Co. L.P. When KKR & Co. L.P. receives distributions from the KKR Group Partnerships (the holding companies of the KKR business), KKR Holdings receives its pro rata share of such distributions from the KKR Group Partnerships.

Net Realized Principal Investment Income

 

Net realized principal investment income refers to net cash income from (i) realized investment gains and losses excluding certain realized investment losses from principal investments during the second quarter of 2013 to the extent unrealized losses on these investments were recognized prior to the combination with KPE on October 1, 2009, (ii) dividend income and (iii) interest income net of interest expense less certain compensation and general and administrative expenses incurred in the generation of net realized principal investment income, in each case generated by KKR’s principal investments held on or through KKR’s balance sheet in our Capital Markets and Principal Activities segment. This is a term to describe a portion of KKR’s quarterly distribution. Realized investment losses from principal investments that were already written down as of October 1, 2009 that have been excluded from net realized principal investment income as described in (i) above amounted to approximately $205 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Table of Contents

 

Total Distributable Earnings

 

Total distributable earnings is the sum of (i) FRE, (ii) carry distributions received from KKR’s investment funds which have not been allocated as part of its carry pool and (iii) net realized principal investment income; less (i) applicable local income taxes, if any, and (ii) noncontrolling interests.  We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides a supplemental measure to assess performance, excluding the impact of mark-to-market gains (losses), and also assess amounts available for distribution to KKR unitholders.   However, total distributable earnings is not a measure that calculates actual distributions under KKR’s current distribution policy.

 

Other Liquidity Needs

 

We may also be required to fund various underwriting commitments in our capital markets business in connection with the underwriting of loans, securities or other financial instruments. 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 account.

 

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies on an Unconsolidated Basis

(1)                               These uncalled commitments represent amounts committed by us to fund a portion of the purchase price paid for each investment made by our investment funds which are actively investing. Because capital contributions are due on demand, the above commitments have been presented as falling due within one year. However, given the size of such commitments and the rates at which our investment funds make investments, we expect that the capital commitments presented above will be called over a period of several years. See “—Liquidity—Liquidity Needs.”

 

(2)                               Represents the 2020 Senior Notes and 2043 Senior Notes, which are presented gross of unamortized discount.

 

(3)                               These interest obligations on debt represent estimated interest to be paid over the maturity of the related debt obligation, which has been calculated assuming the debt outstanding at June 30, 2013 is not repaid until its maturity. Future interest rates are assumed to be those in effect as of June 30, 2013, including both variable and fixed rates, as applicable, provided for by the relevant debt agreements. The amounts presented above include accrued interest on outstanding indebtedness.

 

(4)                               Represents various commitments in our capital markets business in connection with the underwriting of loans, securities and other financial instruments. These commitments are shown net of amounts syndicated.

The commitment table above excludes contractual amounts owed under the tax receivable agreement, because the ultimate amount and timing of the amounts due are not presently known. As of June 30, 2013, a payable of $90.3 million has been recorded in due to affiliates in the consolidated financial statements representing management’s best estimate of the amounts currently expected to be owed under the tax receivable agreement. As of June 30, 2013, approximately $2.9 million of cumulative cash payments have been made under the tax receivable agreement. See “—Liquidity Needs—Tax Receivable Agreement”.

 

The commitment table above excludes contingent consideration payments that may be owed in connection with acquisitions and other investments because the ultimate amounts due are not presently known. As of June 30, 2013, the recorded amounts of our contingent consideration obligations were approximately $120.8 million.

 

In the normal course of business, we enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide general indemnifications. In addition, certain of our consolidated funds have provided certain indemnities relating to environmental and other matters and have provided nonrecourse carve-out guarantees for fraud, willful misconduct and other customary wrongful acts, each in connection with the financing of certain real estate investments that we have made. Our maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against us that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, we expect the risk of material loss to be low.

 

The partnership documents governing our carry-paying funds, including funds and vehicles relating to private equity, mezzanine, infrastructure, natural resources, direct lending and special situations investments, 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.  Excluding carried interest received by the general partners of funds that were not contributed to us in the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of KKR & Co. (Guernsey) L.P. (formerly known as KKR Private Equity Investors, L.P.) on October 1, 2009 (the “KPE Transaction”), as of June 30, 2013, no carried interest was subject to this clawback obligation, assuming that all applicable carry paying funds were liquidated at their June 30, 2013 fair values. Had the investments in such funds been liquidated at zero value, the clawback obligation would have been $1,200.3 million. 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. 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 our investment balance as this is where carried interest is initially recorded.

 

Certain private equity funds that were contributed to us in the KPE Transaction also include a “net loss sharing provision.” Upon the liquidation of an investment vehicle to which a net loss sharing obligation applies, the general partner is required to contribute capital to the vehicle, to fund 20% of the net losses on investments. In these vehicles, such losses would be required to be paid by us to the fund investors in those vehicles in the event of a liquidation of the fund regardless of whether any carried interest had previously been distributed, and a greater share of investment losses would be allocable to us relative to the capital that we contributed to it as general partner. Based on the fair market values as of June 30, 2013, there would have been no net loss sharing obligation. If the

 

104



Table of Contents

 

vehicles were liquidated at zero value, the net loss sharing obligation would have been approximately $578.3 million as of June 30, 2013.

 

Prior to the KPE Transaction, certain of our principals who received carried interest distributions with respect to certain private equity funds contributed to us had personally guaranteed, on a several basis and subject to a cap, the contingent obligations of the general partners of such private equity funds to repay amounts to fund investors pursuant to the general partners’ clawback obligations.  The terms of the KPE Transaction require that our principals remain responsible for any clawback obligations relating to carry distributions received prior to the KPE Transaction, up to a maximum of $223.6 million. As of June 30, 2013, no amounts are due with respect to the clawback obligation required to be funded by our principals who do not hold direct controlling economic interests in the KKR Group Partnerships. Carry distributions arising subsequent to the KPE Transaction may give rise to clawback obligations that may be allocated generally to us and our principals who participate in the carry pool.  Unlike the clawback obligation, we will be responsible for amounts due under a net loss sharing obligation and will indemnify our principals for any personal guarantees that they have provided with respect to such amounts. In addition, guarantees of or similar arrangements relating to clawback or net loss sharing obligations in favor of third party investors in an individual investment partnership by entities we own may limit distributions of carried interest more generally.

 

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies on a Consolidated Basis

 

In the ordinary course of business, we and our consolidated funds enter into contractual arrangements that may require future cash payments. The following table sets forth information relating to anticipated future cash payments as of June 30, 2013.

(1)                               These uncalled commitments represent amounts committed by our consolidated investment funds, which include amounts committed by KKR and our fund investors, to fund the purchase price paid for each investment made by our investment funds which are actively investing. Because capital contributions are due on demand, the above commitments have been presented as falling due within one year. However, given the size of such commitments and the rates at which our investment funds make investments, we expect that the capital commitments presented above will be called over a period of several years. See “—Liquidity—Liquidity Needs.”

 

(2)                               Amounts include the 2020 Senior Notes and 2043 Senior Notes, gross of unamortized discount as well as financing arrangements entered into by our consolidated funds. Certain of our consolidated fund investment vehicles have entered into financing arrangements in connection with specific investments with the objective of enhancing returns or providing liquidity to the fund. Such financing arrangements include $713.2 million of financing provided through a term loan and revolving credit facilities. These financing arrangements have been entered into with the objective of enhancing returns or providing liquidity to the fund and are not direct obligations of the general partners of our private equity funds or our management companies.

(3)                                 These interest obligations on debt represent estimated interest to be paid over the maturity of the related debt obligation, which has been calculated assuming the debt outstanding at June 30, 2013 is not repaid until its maturity. Future interest rates are assumed to be those in effect as of June 30, 2013, including both variable and fixed rates, as applicable, provided for by the relevant debt agreements. The amounts presented above include accrued interest on outstanding indebtedness.

(6)                                 Represents our commitment to MCS. See “—Liquidity—Liquidity Needs—MerchCap Solutions.”

 

The commitment table above excludes contractual amounts owed under the tax receivable agreement because the ultimate amount and timing of the amounts due are not presently known. As of June 30, 2013, a payable of $90.3 million has been recorded in due to affiliates in the consolidated financial statements representing management’s best estimate of the amounts currently expected to be owed under the tax receivable agreement. As of June 30, 2013, approximately $2.9 million of cumulative cash payments have been made under the tax receivable agreement. See “—Liquidity Needs—Tax Receivable Agreement”.

 

The commitment table above excludes contingent consideration payments that may be owed in connection with acquisitions and other investments because the ultimate amounts due are not presently known. As of June 30, 2013, the recorded amounts of our contingent consideration obligations were approximately $120.8 million.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Other than contractual commitments and other legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of our business, we do not have any off-balance sheet financings or liabilities.

 

Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows

 

The accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows include the cash flows of our consolidated entities which, in particular, include our consolidated funds notwithstanding the fact that we may hold only a minority economic interest in those funds. The assets of our consolidated funds, on a gross basis, are substantially larger than the assets of our business and, accordingly, 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 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 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 by (Used in) Operating Activities

 

Our net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $2.3 billion and $2.7 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. These amounts primarily included: (i) proceeds from sales of investments net of purchases of investments by our funds of $1.6 billion and $1.9 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively; (ii) net realized gains (losses) on investments of $1.6 billion and $2.0 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively; and (iii) change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments of $0.7 billion and $2.7 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Certain KKR funds are, for GAAP purposes, investment companies and reflect their investments and other financial instruments at fair value.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities

 

Our net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $61.6 million and $39.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our investing activities included the purchases of furniture, computer hardware and leasehold improvements of $4.5 million and $17.4 million as well as a (decrease) increase in restricted cash and cash equivalents that primarily funds collateral requirements of $(66.1) million and $(56.5) million during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities

 

Our net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $(2.5) billion and $(2.9) billion during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our financing activities primarily included: (i) distributions to, net of contributions by our noncontrolling and redeemable noncontrolling interests, of $(2.8) billion and $(2.3) billion during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively; (ii) net proceeds received net of repayment of debt obligations of $0.6 billion and $(0.4) billion during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively; and (iii) distributions to our partners of $(248.6) million and $(107.6) million during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of our consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements in the period in which the actual amounts become known. We believe the following critical accounting policies could potentially produce materially different results if we were to change underlying estimates, judgments or assumptions. Please see the notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for further detail regarding our critical accounting policies.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

Our policy is to consolidate (i) those entities in which we hold a majority voting interest or have majority ownership and control over significant operating, financial and investing decisions of the entity, including those private equity, fixed income, and other investment funds and their respective consolidated funds in which the general partner is presumed to have control or (ii) entities determined to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which we are considered the primary beneficiary.

 

With respect to the consolidated KKR funds and vehicles, we generally have operational discretion and control, and fund investors have no substantive rights to impact ongoing governance and operating activities of the fund, including the ability to remove the general partner, also known as kick-out rights.

 

The consolidated KKR funds do not consolidate their majority owned and controlled investments in portfolio companies. Rather, those investments are accounted for as investments and carried at fair value as described below.

 

The KKR funds are consolidated notwithstanding the fact that we have only a minority economic interest in those funds. The consolidated financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, investment income and cash flows of the consolidated KKR funds on a gross basis, and the majority of the economic interests in those funds, which are held by third party investors in our funds, are attributed to noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. 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. L.P. is reflected as an adjustment to net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. All of the management fees and certain other amounts earned by us from those funds are

 

107



Table of Contents

 

eliminated in consolidation. However, because the eliminated amounts are earned from, and funded by, noncontrolling interests, our attributable share of the net income from those funds is increased by the amounts eliminated. Accordingly, the elimination in consolidation of such amounts has no effect on net income (loss) attributable to us or our partners’ capital.

 

Noncontrolling interests represent the ownership interests held by entities or persons other than us.

 

Investments

 

Investments consist primarily of private equity, real assets, fixed income, equity method and other investments. Investments are carried at their estimated fair values, with unrealized gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value reflected as a component of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Investments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar 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 condensed 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” in our financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

 

The following describes the types of securities held within each investment class.

 

Private Equity —Consists primarily of investments in companies with operating businesses.

 

Real Assets —Consists primarily of investments in (i) oil and natural gas properties (“natural resources”), (ii) infrastructure assets, and (iii) residential and commercial real estate assets and businesses (“real estate”).

 

Fixed Income —Consists primarily of investments in below investment grade corporate debt securities (primarily high yield bonds and syndicated bank loans), distressed and opportunistic debt and interests in collateralized loan obligations.

 

Equity Method —Consists primarily of investments in unconsolidated investment funds and vehicles that are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, our share of earnings (losses) from equity method investments is reflected as a component of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Because the underlying investments of unconsolidated investment funds and vehicles are reported at fair value, the carrying value of our equity method investments approximates fair value.

 

Other —Consists primarily of investments in common stock, preferred stock, warrants and options of companies that are not private equity, real assets or fixed income investments.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Investments and other financial instruments are measured and carried at fair value. The majority of investments and other financial instruments are held by the consolidated funds and vehicles. Our funds and vehicles are, for GAAP purposes, investment companies and reflect their investments and other financial instruments at fair value. We have retained the specialized accounting for the consolidated funds and vehicles in consolidation. Accordingly, the unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of the investments held by our funds and vehicles are reflected as a component of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

For investments and other financial instruments that are not held in a consolidated fund or vehicle, we have elected the fair value option since these investments and other financial instruments are similar to those in the consolidated funds and vehicles. Such election is irrevocable and is applied on an investment by investment basis at initial recognition. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value are reflected as a component of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The

 

108



Table of Contents

 

methodology for measuring the fair value of such investments and other financial instruments is consistent with the methodologies applied to investments and other financial instruments that are held in consolidated funds and vehicles.

 

The carrying amounts of Other Assets, Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities recognized on the statements of financial condition (excluding Fixed Assets, Goodwill, Intangible Assets, contingent consideration and certain debt obligations) approximate fair value due to their short term maturities. These items are presented in our financial statements included elsewhere in this report, specifically, information on Goodwill and Intangible Assets is presented in Note 14 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” and information on contingent consideration is presented in Note 13 “Acquisitions.” Our debt obligations, except for our 2020 and 2043 Senior Notes, bear interest at floating rates and therefore fair value approximates carrying value.  Further information on our 2020 and 2043 Senior Notes are presented in Note 8, “Debt Obligations.” The fair value for our 2020 and 2043 Senior Notes were derived using Level II inputs similar to those utilized in valuing fixed income investments.

 

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. 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. See Note 5, “Fair Value Measurements” for further information on our valuation techniques that involve unobservable inputs. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the statements of financial condition are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. Hierarchical levels, as defined under GAAP, are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to the valuation of these assets and liabilities. The hierarchical levels defined under GAAP are as follows:

 

Level I

 

Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. The type of investments and other financial instruments included in this category are publicly-listed equities and debt and securities sold short. We classified 17.6% of total investments measured and reported at fair value as Level I at June 30, 2013.

 

Level II

 

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level II inputs include quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. The type of investments and other financial instruments included in this category are fixed income investments, convertible debt securities indexed to publicly-listed securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives. We classified 9.2% of total investments measured and reported at fair value as Level II at June 30, 2013.

 

Level III

 

Inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The types of assets and liabilities generally included in this category are private portfolio companies, real assets investments and fixed income investments for which a sufficiently liquid trading market does not exist. We classified 73.2% of total investments measured and reported at fair value as Level III at June 30, 2013. The valuation of our Level III investments at June 30, 2013 represents management’s best estimate of the amounts that we would anticipate realizing on the sale of these investments at such date.

 

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. Our 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 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 us 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 we recognize 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. We do not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where we hold a large position and a sale could reasonably affect the quoted price.

 

Level II Valuation Methodologies

 

Financial assets and liabilities categorized as Level II consist primarily of securities indexed to publicly-listed securities and fixed income and other investments. Fixed income investments 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 asset. Ask prices represent the lowest price that KKR and others are willing to accept for an asset. For financial assets and liabilities 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. Our policy is generally to allow for mid-market pricing and adjusting to the point within the bid-ask range that meets our best estimate of fair value. For securities indexed to publicly listed securities, such as convertible debt, the 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.

 

Level III Valuation Methodologies

 

Management’s determination of fair value is based upon the best information available for a given circumstance and may incorporate assumptions that are management’s best estimates after consideration of a variety of internal and external factors.

 

Financial assets and liabilities categorized as Level III consist primarily of the following:

 

Private Equity Investments:     We generally employ two 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. Other inputs are also used in both methodologies. For valuations determined for periods other than at year end, various inputs may be estimated prior to the end of the relevant period. Also, as discussed in greater detail under “—Business

 

110



Table of Contents

 

Environment,” a change in interest rates could have a significant impact on valuations. In certain cases the results of the discounted cash flow approach can be significantly impacted by these estimates.

 

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.

 

When determining the weighting ascribed to each valuation methodology, we consider, among other factors, the availability of direct market comparables, the applicability of a discounted cash flow analysis and the expected hold period and manner of realization for the investment. 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. Across the Level III private equity investment portfolio, approximately 90% 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 5% of the fair value of the 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, 2013, we believe that the approach of using both the market multiples methodology and the discounted cash flow methodology resulted in valuations of our aggregate Level III private equity portfolio that were only marginally lower than if only the discounted cash flow methodology had been used and that were only marginally higher than if only the market comparables methodology had been used.

 

When determining the illiquidity discount to be applied, we take a uniform approach across our portfolio and generally apply a minimum 5% discount to all private equity investments. We then evaluate 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 we are unable to 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, we determine the amount of any incremental illiquidity discount to be applied above the 5% minimum, and during the time we hold 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 us in our valuations.

 

Real Assets Investments:   For natural resources and infrastructure investments, we generally utilize 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. For real estate investments, we generally utilize a combination of direct income capitalization and discounted cash flow analysis, which incorporates significant assumptions and judgments. Estimates of key inputs used in these methodologies include an unlevered discount rate and terminal capitalization rate. The valuations of real assets investments also use other inputs. Certain investments in real estate and natural resources generally do not include a minimum illiquidity discount.

 

Fixed Income Investments:     Fixed income investments are valued using values obtained from dealers or market makers, and where these values are not available, fixed income investments are valued by us using internally developed valuation models. 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.

 

Other Investments:     We generally employ the same valuation methodologies as described above for private equity investments when valuing these other investments.

 

111



Table of Contents

 

Key unobservable inputs that have a significant impact on our Level III investment valuations as described above are included in Note 5 “Fair Value Measurements.” We utilize 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 our valuation methodologies. Our reported fair value estimates could vary materially if we had chosen to incorporate different unobservable pricing inputs and other assumptions or, for applicable investments, if we only used either the discounted cash flow methodology or the market comparables methodology instead of assigning a weighting to both methodologies.

 

Level III Valuation Process

 

The valuation process involved for Level III measurements for private equity, real assets, fixed income, and other investments 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. We have a Private Markets valuation committee for private equity and real assets investments and a valuation committee for fixed income and other investments. The Private Markets valuation committee may be assisted by subcommittees for example in the valuation of and real estate investments. Each of the Private Markets valuation committee and the fixed income valuation committee is assisted by a valuation team, which, except as noted below, is comprised only of employees who are not investment professionals responsible for preparing preliminary valuations or for oversight of any of the investments being valued. The valuation teams for natural resources, infrastructure and real estate investments contain investment professionals who participate in the preparation of preliminary valuations and oversight for those investments. The valuation committees and teams are responsible for coordinating and consistently implementing our quarterly valuation policies, guidelines and processes. For 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. These preliminary valuations are reviewed with the investment professionals by the applicable valuation team and are also reviewed by an independent valuation firm engaged by us to perform certain procedures in order to assess the reasonableness of our valuations for all Level III investments, except for certain investments other than our private equity investments. All preliminary valuations are then reviewed by the applicable valuation committee, and after reflecting any input by their respective valuation committees, the preliminary valuations are presented to a single committee consisting of senior principals involved in various aspects of the our business. When these valuations are approved by this single 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 our board of directors and are then reported on to the board of directors.

 

As of June 30, 2013, upon completion by the independent valuation firm of certain limited procedures requested to be performed by them, the independent valuation firm concluded that the fair values, as determined by KKR, of the 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 certain Level III fixed income 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.

 

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 partners’ capital that we report from time to time.

 

Changes in the fair value of the investments of our consolidated private equity funds may impact the net gains (losses) from investment activities of our private equity funds as described under “—Key Financial Measures—Investment Income (Loss)—Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities.” Based on the investments of our private equity funds as of June 30, 2013, we estimate that an immediate 10% decrease in the fair value of the funds’ investments generally would result in a commensurate change in the amount of net gains (losses) from investment activities (except that carried interest would likely be more significantly impacted), regardless of whether the

 

112



Table of Contents

 

investment was valued using observable market prices or management estimates with significant unobservable pricing inputs. 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 would be attributable to noncontrolling interests and therefore we are only impacted to the extent of our carried interest and our principal investments.

 

As of June 30, 2013, private equity investments which represented greater than 5% of consolidated investments consisted of Alliance Boots GmbH valued at $3.8 billion.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Fees consist primarily of (i) monitoring and consulting fees from providing advisory and other services, (ii) management and incentive fees from providing investment management services to unconsolidated funds, a specialty finance company, structured finance and other vehicles, and separately managed accounts, and (iii) transaction fees earned in connection with successful investment transactions and from capital markets activities. 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. 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.

 

Certain of KKR’s private equity funds require the management company to refund up to 20% of any cash management fees earned from limited partners in the event that the funds recognize a carried interest. At such time as the fund recognizes a carried interest in an amount sufficient to cover 20% of the cash management fees earned or a portion thereof, a liability 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 cash management fees earned. As of June 30, 2013, there is no carried interest subject to management fee refunds, which may reduce carried interest in future periods. The refunds to the limited partners are paid, and the liabilities relieved, at such time that the underlying investments are sold and the associated carried interests are realized. In the event that a fund’s carried interest is not sufficient to cover any of the amount that represents 20% of the cash management fees earned, these fees would not be returned to the funds’ limited partners, in accordance with the respective fund agreements.

 

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 and foreign denominated debt. Unrealized gains or losses result from changes in fair value of investments during the period and are included 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. While this reversal generally does not significantly impact the net amounts of gains (losses) that we recognize from investment activities, it affects the manner in which we classify our gains and losses for reporting purposes.

 

Due to the consolidation of the majority of our funds, the portion of our funds’ investment income that is allocable to our carried interests and capital investments is not shown in the consolidated financial statements. 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. L.P. is reflected as an adjustment to net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. Because the substantial majority of our funds are consolidated and because we hold only a minority economic interest in our funds’ investments, our share of the investment income generated by our funds’ investment activities is significantly less than the total amount of investment income presented in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Recognition of Carried Interest in 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. Amounts earned pursuant to carried interest are included as investment income (loss) in net gains (losses) from investment activities and 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 returns decrease or turn negative in subsequent periods, recognized carried interest will be reversed and reflected as investment losses in net gains (losses) from investment activities.

 

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. 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 our investment balance as this is where carried interest is initially recorded. 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.

 

Clawback Provision

 

The partnership documents governing our carry-paying funds, including funds and vehicles relating to private equity, mezzanine, infrastructure, natural resources and special situations investments, generally include a “clawback” provision that, if triggered, may give rise to a contingent obligation requiring the general partner to return or contribute amounts to the fund for distribution to investors at the end of the life of the fund. Under a clawback obligation, upon the liquidation of a carry-paying 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 hurdle.

 

Prior to the KPE Transaction, certain KKR principals who received carried interest distributions with respect to certain private equity funds contributed to KKR had personally guaranteed, on a several basis and subject to a cap, the contingent obligations of the general partners of such private equity funds to repay amounts to fund investors pursuant to the general partners’ clawback obligations.  The terms of the KPE Transaction require that KKR principals remain responsible for any clawback obligations relating to carry distributions received prior to the KPE Transaction, up to a maximum of $223.6 million.  Carry distributions arising subsequent to the KPE Transaction may give rise to clawback obligations that may be allocated generally to KKR and KKR’s principals who participate in the carry pool.

 

Net Loss Sharing Provision

 

Certain private equity funds that were contributed to KKR in the KPE Transaction also include a “net loss sharing provision.” Upon the liquidation of an investment vehicle to which a net loss sharing obligation applies, the general partner is required to contribute capital to the vehicle, to fund 20% of the net losses on investments. In these vehicles, such losses would be required to be paid by KKR to fund investors in those vehicles in the event of a liquidation of the fund regardless of whether any carried interest had previously been distributed, and a greater share of investment losses would be allocable to us relative to the capital that we contributed to it as general partner. Unlike the clawback obligation, KKR will be responsible for amounts due under a net loss sharing obligation and will indemnify KKR’s principals for any personal guarantees that they have provided with respect to such amounts.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Disclosures About Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

 

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (“ASU 2011-11”), which requires entities to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements of financial instruments and derivative instruments. In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, which clarifies which instruments and transactions are subject to the offsetting disclosure requirements established by ASU 2011-11. ASU 2011-11 was effective for KKR’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013 and was applied retrospectively.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on KKR’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Disclosures About Reclassification Adjustments Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

 

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”),” which requires entities to disclose additional information about reclassification adjustments, including: (i) changes in AOCI balances by component and (ii) significant items reclassified out of AOCI. ASU 2013-02 was effective for KKR’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance, which is related to disclosure only, did not have a material impact on KKR’s consolidated financial statements. AOCI is comprised of only one component, foreign currency translation adjustments and for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no items reclassified out of AOCI. See KKR’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income and changes in equity.

 

Foreign Currency Matters

 

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, “Foreign Currency Matters,” which indicates that the entire amount of a cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) related to an entity’s investment in a foreign entity should be released when there has been a (i) sale of a subsidiary or group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity, (ii) loss of a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity, and (iii) step acquisition for a foreign entity.  This guidance is effective for KKR’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2014, and is to be applied prospectively. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on KKR’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Amendments to Investment Company Scope, Measurement, and Disclosures

 

In June 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-08, Financial Services — Investment Companies Topic 946 (“ASU 2013-08”) which amends the scope, measurement, and disclosure requirements for investment companies. ASU 2013-08 (i) amends the criteria for an entity to qualify as an investment company, (ii) requires an investment company to measure noncontrolling ownership interests in other investment companies at fair value rather than using the equity method of accounting, and (iii) introduces new disclosures. This guidance is effective for KKR’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2014. Earlier application is prohibited. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on KKR’s financial results and consolidated financial statements.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

There have been no material changes in the information about market risk set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2013.

 

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:  We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurances of achieving the desired controls.

 

On October 1, 2012, we acquired Prisma Capital Partners LP and its affiliates (as discussed in Note 13 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC). We are in the process of evaluating the internal controls of the acquired business. However, as permitted by related SEC Staff interpretive guidance for newly acquired businesses, the internal control over financial reporting of Prisma Capital Partners LP and its affiliates was excluded from the evaluation of the company’s effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2013. In the aggregate, this business represented approximately 0.7% of our total consolidated assets and approximately 15.7% of our total consolidated fees as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

 

As of June 30, 2013, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting: There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
