Exhibit 99.1
 

The Carlyle Group Announces First Quarter 2015 Financial Results
Washington, DC, April 29, 2015 – Global alternative asset manager The Carlyle Group L.P. (NASDAQ: CG) today reported its unaudited results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015.
Carlyle Co-CEO David M. Rubenstein said, “We continue to see an accelerating level of investor interest in our products and a majority of our funds in the market are hitting or exceeding their fundraising target sizes. In addition, the metrics that drive Carlyle's long term financial performance remain strong, including fund performance, capital formation, and asset realizations. While an adverse French tax judgment negatively impacted our results in the first quarter, we are off to a good start in 2015.”
 
Carlyle Co-CEO William E. Conway, Jr. said, “The performance of our funds has been solid early in the year, with our carry funds up 6% in the first quarter and other products performing well. We have been active investors with 10 new Corporate Private Equity investments and 24 new Real Assets investments in the first quarter alone. The second quarter has started well, with one of our largest ever portfolio company secondary transactions and a number of other exits generating healthy performance fees early in the quarter.”
U.S. GAAP results for Q1 2015 included income before provision for income taxes of $615 million, and net income attributable to the common unitholders through The Carlyle Group L.P. of $40 million, or net income per common unit of $0.54, on a diluted basis. Total balance sheet assets were $35 billion as of March 31, 2015.
French Tax Judgment
Our financial results for the first quarter were negatively impacted by an adverse court judgment in a previously disclosed French tax court proceeding relating to a transaction that Carlyle Europe Real Estate Partners I (CEREP I) exited between 2007 and 2009. The judgment, which included taxes, interest and penalties of €105 million, or $112 million, negatively impacted pre-tax U.S. GAAP income and Economic Net Income by $34 million (or $0.11 ENI per unit after tax) since the judgment exceeded a previously recorded loss reserve. The ruling negatively impacted Distributable Earnings by $80 million (or $0.24 DE per unit after tax) as we realized the amount by which the French tax liability exceeds the $32 million of cash available in CEREP I. We are appealing the judgment and if we prevail, any refund would be reflected in our quarterly results at that time.
In addition to this release, Carlyle issued a full detailed presentation of its first quarter 2015 results, which can be viewed on the investor relations section of our website at ir.carlyle.com.
Distribution
The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly distribution of $0.33 per common unit to holders of record at the close of business on May 15, 2015, payable on May 22, 2015.
Conference Call
Carlyle will host a conference call at 8:30 a.m. EDT on Wednesday, April 29, 2015 to announce its first quarter 2015 financial results.
The call may be accessed by dialing +1 (800) 850-2903 (U.S.) or +1 (253) 237-1169 (international) and referencing “The Carlyle Group Financial Results Call.” The conference call will be webcast simultaneously via a link on Carlyle’s investor relations website at ir.carlyle.com and an archived replay of the webcast also will be available on the website soon after the live call.

Carlyle’s general partner may adjust the distribution for amounts determined to be necessary or appropriate to provide for the conduct of its business, to make appropriate investments in its business and its funds or to comply with applicable law or any of its financing agreements, or to provide for future cash requirements such as tax-related payments, clawback obligations and distributions to unitholders for any ensuing quarter. The amount to be distributed could also be adjusted upward in any one quarter. The declaration and payment of any distributions is at the sole discretion of Carlyle’s general partner, which may change or eliminate the distribution policy at any time.

Carlyle All Segment Results
 
Distributable Earnings (DE): $148 million for Q1 2015 and $938 million on an LTM basis
Distributable Earnings were $148 million for Q1 2015, or $0.43 per common unit on a post-tax basis. DE was $938 million on an LTM basis, 11% higher than the prior rolling 12-month period. Q1 2015 DE was negatively impacted by $80 million as a result of an adverse French tax judgment.
Fee-Related Earnings (FRE) were $51 million for Q1 2015 compared to $37 million for Q1 2014 due to higher catch-up management fees of $23 million, compared to $8 million in Q1 2014, and lower general and administrative operating expenses for Q1 2015. FRE of $261 million on an LTM basis, 73% higher than the prior rolling 12-month period, were positively impacted by catch-up management fees and transaction fee revenue, largely in Corporate Private Equity.
Realized Net Performance Fees were $178 million for Q1 2015, compared to $140 million for Q1 2014. For Q1 2015, realized net performance fees were positively impacted by exits in Commscope, Booz Allen Hamilton, Altice, Nielsen and Veyance Technologies, among others.
Realized Investment Income/(Loss) was ($82) million in Q1 2015, with ($80) million attributable to the French tax judgment, ($8) million related to realized losses for Urbplan Desenvolvimento Urbano S.A. (“Urbplan”), and $6 million in realized gains on other balance sheet investments.
Economic Net Income (ENI): $273 million for Q1 2015 and $923 million on an LTM basis
First quarter 2015 ENI was positively impacted by net performance fees in Corporate Private Equity and firm-wide Fee-Related Earnings, but was partially offset by the French tax judgment's impact on ENI of $34 million. Carlyle had previously accrued €75 million in CEREP I for the French tax matter in 2013. On a post-tax basis, Carlyle generated ENI per Adjusted Unit of $0.80 for Q1 2015. On an LTM basis, ENI of $923 million was 24% lower than the prior rolling 12-month period.
First quarter of 2015 overall carry fund appreciation was 6%. Corporate Private Equity carry funds appreciated by 8%, Global Market Strategies carry funds appreciated by 3% and Real Assets carry funds appreciated by 2% compared to the end of Q4 2014. Total carry fund appreciation was 15% on an LTM basis.

Carry Fund Performance and Net Accrued Performance Fees
The Carlyle Group carry fund valuations increased 6% during the first quarter of 2015. Over the past twelve months, Carlyle’s carry fund portfolio valuation increased 15%. Carlyle’s public portfolio appreciated 15% during Q1 2015, while its private portfolio appreciated 2%. Carlyle’s portfolio was positively impacted by appreciation in Carlyle Partners IV and V, Carlyle Europe Partners III, Carlyle Asia Partners III and Carlyle Realty Partners V and VI, and was offset by depreciation in NGP X, Energy III and Energy IV. Legacy Energy funds were a negative contributor to quarterly appreciation, but their impact on firm-wide financial results was partially mitigated by a lower interest in performance fee economics on these funds, which range from 16% to 40%, with a weighted average of 20% based on remaining fair value invested.
As of Q1 2015, net accrued performance fees of $1.8 billion were relatively unchanged from $1.8 billion at the end of Q4 2014. As of Q1 2015, energy-related net accrued performance fees across Natural Resources, Legacy Energy and Global Market Strategies were $17 million, representing less than 1% of total firm net accrued performance fees.

Note: Carlyle’s “carry funds” refer to (i) those investment funds that we advise, including the buyout funds, growth capital funds, real estate funds, infrastructure funds, certain energy funds and distressed debt and mezzanine funds (but excluding our structured credit funds, hedge funds, business development companies, mutual funds, and fund of funds vehicles), where we receive a special residual allocation of income, which we refer to as a carried interest, in the event that specified investment returns are achieved by the fund and (ii) those investment funds advised by NGP from which we are entitled to receive a carried interest. Note: Appreciation / (Depreciation) represents unrealized gain / (losses) for the period on a total return basis before fees and expenses. The percentage of return is calculated as: ending remaining investment fair market value plus net investment outflow (sales proceeds minus net purchases) minus beginning remaining investment fair market value divided by beginning remaining investment fair market value. Fund only, does not include co-investment. The Global Market Strategies segment includes carry funds only and does not include structured credit funds, hedge funds, business development companies, and mutual funds.
(1) Natural Resources is comprised of NGP, infrastructure, power, and international energy funds.
(2) We generally earn performance fees (or carried interest) from our carry funds representing a 20% allocation of profits generated on third-party capital after returning the invested capital, the allocation of preferred returns of generally 8% or 9% and return of certain fund costs. Our net interest in the performance fees after allocations to our investment professionals or other parties varies based on each fund. For our Corporate Private Equity, Global Market Strategies, Real Estate and Natural Resources carry funds (excluding NGP) our net interest in performance fees is generally 55%. Our net interest in the performance fees from our NGP carry funds ranges from 40% to 47.5%. Our net interest in the performance fees from our Legacy Energy carry funds generally ranges from 16% to 40%, with a weighted average of 20% based on remaining fair value invested.

Assets Under Management and Remaining Fair Value of Capital
 
Total Assets Under Management: $192.7 billion as of Q1 2015 (-3% LTM)
Major drivers of change versus Q4 2014: New capital commitments (+$6.8 billion), market appreciation (+$7.3 billion) and changes in CLO/other structured products par value (+$0.9 billion), offset by net distributions (-$7.9 billion), foreign exchange loss (-$6.6 billion) and net redemptions (-$2.1 billion).
Total Dry Powder of $60.4 billion as of Q1 2015, comprised of $24.8 billion in Corporate Private Equity, $2.8 billion in Global Market Strategies, $16.7 billion in Real Assets and $16.1 billion in Investment Solutions.

Fee-Earning Assets Under Management: $129.4 billion as of Q1 2015 (-9% LTM)
As of Q1 2015, there was $10.2 billion of newly raised capital for which we have not yet commenced charging management fees that will increase Fee-Earning AUM as capital is deployed or fee holidays expire.
Over the LTM, the impact of foreign exchange on our non-U.S. dollar denominated funds has negatively impacted Fee-Earning AUM by $10.2 billion, or 80% of the total year-over-year change.
Major drivers of change versus Q4 2014: Inflows, including fee-paying commitments (+$4.1 billion) and changes in CLO/other structured products par value (+$0.7 billion), offset by foreign exchange loss (-$4.5 billion), net distributions and outflows (-$4.4 billion) and net hedge fund redemptions (-$2.1 billion).
Fee-Earning AUM was positively impacted during the first quarter by commitments in Carlyle’s latest vintage U.S. Real Estate fund and Europe buyout fund, new international energy fund and new CLOs and the final closing in NGP XI, in addition to other fundraising activity across the Carlyle platform.

Remaining Fair Value of Capital (carry funds only) as of Q1 2015: $62.4 billion
Current Multiple of Invested Capital (MOIC) of remaining fair value of capital: 1.3x.
Total Fair Value derived from investments made in 2010 or earlier: 35%.
AUM in-carry ratio as of the end of Q1 2015: 58%. The decline versus the prior quarter primarily is due to the Energy IV fund moving out of an accrued carry position, partially offset by Carlyle Realty Partners V moving into accrued carry.

Note: Data as of March 31, 2015. (1) Fair value of remaining carry fund capital in the ground, by vintage. Totals may not sum due to rounding.

Fee-Related Earnings were $22 million in Q1 2015 and $138 million on an LTM basis, compared to $12 million in Q1 2014. The increase in Q1 2015 was driven by higher catch-up management fees of $12 million, compared to $6 million in Q1 2014, and lower general and administrative expenses.
Realized Net Performance Fees were $169 million for Q1 2015 and $679 million on an LTM basis, compared to $133 million for Q1 2014. Carlyle Partners IV, Carlyle Partners V and Carlyle Europe Partners III generated the majority of Corporate Private Equity's net realized performance fees in Q1 2015.

Distributable Earnings (DE): $9 million for Q1 2015 and $78 million on an LTM basis, 60% lower than prior rolling 12-month period ended Q1 2014. The following components impacted DE in Q1 2015.
Fee-Related Earnings were $5 million in Q1 2015 and $53 million on an LTM basis, compared to $17 million in Q1 2014. The decline in Q1 2015 was driven by lower management fees from our hedge fund partnerships relative to Q1 2014. In addition, we have not yet commenced charging management fees on new capital raised for our second generation energy mezzanine fund, which had its first close in Q1 2015.
Realized Net Performance Fees were $2 million for Q1 2015 and $16 million on an LTM basis, compared to $5 million for Q1 2014, with the lower quarterly level attributable to lower realized performance fees in GMS carry funds.
Realized Investment Income was $2 million for Q1 2015 and $9 million on an LTM basis.

Economic Net Income (ENI): $10 million for Q1 2015 and $68 million on an LTM basis, 62% lower than the prior rolling 12-month period ended Q1 2014.
GMS carry fund valuations increased 3% in Q1 2015, as compared to 3% appreciation in Q1 2014. The asset-weighted hedge fund performance of our reported funds was 2% in Q1 2015.
Net Performance Fees of $13 million for Q1 2015 and $33 million on an LTM basis, compared to $39 million for Q1 2014. Relative to Q1 2014, net performance fees in Q1 2015 were negatively impacted by hedge fund performance fees accrued in early 2014 that were reversed later in 2014.

Total Assets Under Management (AUM): $36.3 billion as of Q1 2015 (-1% LTM).
Fee-Earning AUM of $32.0 billion decreased 7% versus Q1 2014.
Total hedge fund AUM ended Q1 2015 at $11.3 billion.
GMS carry fund AUM ended Q1 2015 at $5.3 billion.
Total structured credit and other products AUM ended Q1 2015 at $19.8 billion.

Distributable Earnings (DE): $18 million for Q1 2015 and $64 million on an LTM basis, both excluding the impact of the French tax judgment of $80 million. The following components impacted DE in Q1 2015.
Fee-Related Earnings were $19 million in Q1 2015 and $41 million on an LTM basis, compared to an immaterial amount of FRE in Q1 2014. The increase in Q1 2015 is primarily attributable to higher management fees driven by $11 million in catch-up management fee revenue, compared to $2 million in Q1 2014, and lower general and administrative expenses.
Realized Net Performance Fees were $6 million for Q1 2015 and $64 million on an LTM basis, compared to an immaterial amount of realized net performance fees for Q1 2014. Carlyle Realty Partners VI generated the majority of realized performance fees in Q1 2015, compared to no realized performance fees in Q1 2014.
Realized Investment (Loss) was ($7) million for Q1 2015 and ($41) million on an LTM basis, both excluding the impact of the French tax judgment of ($80) million. The loss in Q1 2015, excluding the French tax judgment is largely attributable to an ($8) million realized investment loss in Urbplan.

Economic Net Income/(Loss) (ENI): $1 million for Q1 2015 and $(30) million on an LTM basis, compared to $(47) million for the 12-month period ended Q1 2014, all excluding the impact of the French tax judgment.
Real Assets carry fund valuations appreciated 2% in Q1 2015, in line with 2% in Q1 2014.
Net Performance Fees of $(9) million for Q1 2015 and $(28) million on an LTM basis, compared to $6 million for Q1 2014, with the weakness driven by energy and offset by strong U.S. real estate performance.
Investment (Loss) of $(2) million for Q1 2015, excluding the impact of the French tax judgment, primarily attributable to losses from Urbplan.

Total Assets Under Management (AUM): $42.9 billion for Q1 2015 (+5% LTM).
Funds Raised in Q1 2015 of $2.0 billion were driven largely by closings in our latest vintage U.S. Real Estate and power funds, our new international energy fund and NGP's latest generation energy fund, NGP XI.
Fee-Earning AUM of $27.6 billion in Q1 2015 increased by 1% versus Q1 2014. Fee-Earning AUM does not include $4.5 billion of funds raised for NGP XI, which will turn on as assets are invested or their respective fee holiday expires.

Distributable Earnings (DE): $7 million for Q1 2015 and $40 million on an LTM basis, 13% lower than the prior rolling 12-month period ended Q1 2014.
Fee-Related Earnings were $6 million for Q1 2015 and $29 million on an LTM basis, compared to $9 million in Q1 2014. The decrease in Q1 2015 was largely attributable to foreign currency impacts on management fees, partially offset by lower general and administrative expenses.
Realized Net Performance Fees were $1 million for Q1 2015 and $11 million on an LTM basis, compared to $2 million for Q1 2014.

Economic Net Income (ENI): $8 million for Q1 2015 and $39 million on an LTM basis, compared to $14 million in Q1 2014.
Net Performance Fees were $4 million for Q1 2015 and $15 million on an LTM basis, compared to $6 million in Q1 2014.

Total Assets Under Management (AUM): $49.4 billion for Q1 2015 (-14% LTM).
Total AUM declined 14% from Q1 2014 due to negative foreign exchange impact of $9.6 billion, distributions of $10.0 billion, and net redemptions of $1.1 billion, partially offset by $11.3 billion in market appreciation and $2.0 billion in new commitments.

Fee-Earning AUM of $30.5 billion in Q1 2015 declined by 19% versus Q1 2014. Foreign exchange negatively impacted Investment Solutions Fee-Earning AUM by $3.2 billion relative to Q4 2014 and $7.0 billion relative to Q1 2014. Fee-Earning AUM benefited from inflows, including fee-paying commitments of $7.4 billion over the last 12-months.

(1) Represents capital raised by our carry funds, NGP management fee funds and fund of funds vehicles, net of expired available capital.
(2) Represents capital called by our carry funds, NGP management fee funds and fund of funds vehicles, net of fund fees and expenses and investments in our business development companies. Equity invested amounts may vary from capital called due to timing differences between investment acquisition and capital call dates.
(3) Represents distributions from our carry funds, NGP management fee funds and fund of funds vehicles, net of amounts recycled and distributions from our business development companies. Distributions are based on when proceeds are actually distributed to investors, which may differ from when they are realized.
(4) Represents the net result of subscriptions to and redemptions from our hedge funds, mutual fund, and fund of hedge funds vehicles.
(5) Represents the change in the aggregate collateral balance and principal cash at par of the CLOs/structured products.
(6) Market Appreciation/(Depreciation) represents realized and unrealized gains (losses) on portfolio investments and changes in the net asset value of our hedge funds, mutual fund, and fund of hedge funds vehicles.
(7) Represents the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of our non-U.S. dollar denominated funds and other changes in AUM. Activity during the period is translated at the average rate for the period. Ending balances are translated at the spot rate as of the period end.
(8) Ending balance is comprised of approximately $18.7 billion from our structured credit /other structured product funds, $11.3 billion in our hedge funds, $5.3 billion (including $2.8 billion of Available Capital) in our carry funds, $1.0 billion from our business development companies, and $0.1 billion in our mutual fund.
(9) The fair market values for our Investment Solutions fund of funds vehicles are based on the latest available valuations of the underlying limited partnership interests (in most cases as of December 31, 2014) as provided by their general partners, plus the net cash flows since the latest valuation, up to March 31, 2015.

(1) The data presented herein that provides “inception to date” performance results of our segments relates to the period following the formation of the first fund within each segment. For our Corporate Private Equity segment our first fund was formed in 1990. For our Real Assets segment our first fund was formed in 1997.
(2) Represents the original cost of all capital called for investments since inception of the fund.
(3) Represents all realized proceeds combined with remaining fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest.
(4) Multiple of invested capital (“MOIC”) represents total fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest, divided by cumulative invested capital.
(5) An investment is considered realized when the investment fund has completely exited, and ceases to own an interest in, the investment. An investment is considered partially realized when the total amount of proceeds received in respect of such investment, including dividends, interest or other distributions and/or return of capital, represents at least 85% of invested capital and such investment is not yet fully realized. Because part of our value creation strategy involves pursuing best exit alternatives, we believe information regarding Realized/Partially Realized MOIC and Gross IRR, when considered together with the other investment performance metrics presented, provides investors with meaningful information regarding our investment performance by removing the impact of investments where significant realization activity has not yet occurred. Realized/Partially Realized MOIC and Gross IRR have limitations as measures of investment performance, and should not be considered in isolation. Such limitations include the fact that these measures do not include the performance of earlier stage and other investments that do not satisfy the criteria provided above. The exclusion of such investments will have a positive impact on Realized/Partially Realized MOIC and Gross IRR in instances when the MOIC and Gross IRR in respect of such investments are less than the aggregate MOIC and Gross IRR. Our measurements of Realized/Partially Realized MOIC and Gross IRR may not be comparable to those of other companies that use similarly titled measures. We do not present Realized/Partially Realized performance information separately for funds that are still in the investment period because of the relatively insignificant level of realizations for funds of this type. However, to the extent such funds have had realizations, they are included in the Realized/Partially Realized performance information presented for Total Corporate Private Equity and Total Real Assets.
(6) Fully Invested funds are past the expiration date of the investment period as defined in the respective limited partnership agreement. In instances where a successor fund has had its first capital call, the predecessor fund is categorized as fully invested.
(7) Gross Internal Rate of Return (“Gross IRR”) represents the annualized IRR for the period indicated on Limited Partner invested capital based on contributions, distributions and unrealized value before management fees, expenses and carried interest.
(8) Net Internal Rate of Return (“Net IRR”) represents the annualized IRR for the period indicated on Limited Partner invested capital based on contributions, distributions and unrealized value after management fees, expenses and carried interest.
(9) Aggregate includes the following funds: CP I, CMG, CVP I, CVP II, CUSGF III, CEVP, CETP I, CAVP I, CAVP II, CAGP III, Mexico, and MENA.
(10) Includes coinvestments and certain other stand-alone investments arranged by us.

(11) Aggregate includes the following funds: CJP III, CGP, CSABF, CSSAF, CBPF, CPF I, CCI, and CETP III.
(12) Returns are not considered meaningful, as the investment period commenced in May 2012 for CP VI, November 2012 for CAP IV, April 2013 for CGFSP II, August 2013 for CEP IV, September 2013 for CIEP I, March 2014 for CRP VII, and June 2014 for NGP XI.
(13) For purposes of aggregation, funds that report in foreign currency have been converted to U.S. dollars at the reporting period spot rate.
(14) Aggregate includes the following funds: CRP I, CRP II, CAREP I, CAREP II, CRCP I, CPOCP, Energy I and Renew I.
(15) Aggregate includes the following funds: CPP II and NGP GAP. Returns are not considered meaningful, as the investment period commenced in June 2014 for CPP II and December 2013 for NGP GAP.
(16) The data presented herein that provides “inception to date” performance results for CSP II and CEMOF I related to the period following the formation of the funds in June 2007 and December 2010, respectively.
(17) Represents the original cost of investments net of investment level recallable proceeds which is adjusted to reflect recyclability of invested capital for the purpose of calculating the fund MOIC.
(18) Fully Committed funds are past the expiration date of the commitment period as defined in the respective limited partnership agreement.
(19) Includes private equity and mezzanine primary fund investments, secondary fund investments and co-investments originated by the AlpInvest team. Excluded from the performance information shown are a) investments that were not originated by AlpInvest, b) Direct Investments, which was spun off from AlpInvest in 2005 and c) Metropolitan Real Estate fund of funds vehicles. As of March 31, 2015, these excluded investments represent $0.6 billion of AUM at AlpInvest and $1.8 billion of AUM at Metropolitan.
(20) For purposes of aggregation, funds that report in foreign currency have been converted to Euro at the reporting period spot rate.
(21) Aggregate includes Main Fund I - Co-Investments, Main Fund I - Mezzanine Investments, Main Fund IV - Mezzanine Investments, Main Fund V - Mezzanine Investments, Main Fund VI - Fund Investments, AlpInvest CleanTech Funds and funds which are not included as part of a main fund.
(22) Represents the U.S. dollar equivalent balance translated at the spot rate as of period end.

The Carlyle Group L.P.
Non-GAAP Financial Information and Other Key Terms
Non-GAAP Financial Information
Carlyle discloses in this press release the following financial measures that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America:

Economic net income or “ENI,” represents segment net income which includes certain tax expense associated with performance fee compensation and excludes the impact of all other income taxes, acquisition-related items including amortization of acquired intangibles and contingent consideration taking the form of earn-outs, charges associated with equity-based compensation issued in Carlyle’s initial public offering or in acquisitions or strategic investments, corporate actions and infrequently occurring or unusual events. Carlyle believes the inclusion or exclusion of these items provides investors with a meaningful indication of its core operating performance. For segment reporting purposes, revenues and expenses, and accordingly segment net income, are presented on a basis that deconsolidates certain Carlyle funds, related co-investment entities and CLOs (referred to collectively as the “Consolidated Funds”) that Carlyle consolidates in its consolidated financial statements pursuant to U.S. GAAP. Total Segment ENI equals the aggregate of ENI for all segments. ENI and its components are evaluated regularly by management in making resource deployment decisions and in assessing performance of Carlyle’s four segments and for compensation. Carlyle believes that reporting ENI is helpful to understanding its business and that investors should review the same supplemental financial measure that management uses to analyze its segment performance.
Fee-Related Earnings is a component of ENI and is used to measure Carlyle’s operating profitability excluding equity-based compensation, performance fees, investment income from investments in Carlyle’s funds and performance fee related compensation. Accordingly, Fee-Related Earnings reflect the ability of the business to cover direct base compensation and operating expenses from fee revenues other than performance fees. Fee-Related Earnings are reported as part of Carlyle’s segment results. Carlyle uses Fee-Related Earnings from operations to measure its profitability from fund management fees.
Distributable Earnings is a component of ENI representing total ENI less net performance fees and investment income plus realized net performance fees and realized investment income and excluding equity-based compensation. Distributable Earnings is intended to show the amount of net realized earnings without the effects of consolidation of the Consolidated Funds. Distributable Earnings is derived from Carlyle’s segment reported results and is an additional measure to assess performance and amounts potentially available for distribution from Carlyle Holdings to its unitholders.
Adjusted EBITDA is a component of ENI and is used to measure Carlyle’s ability to cover recurring operating expenses from cash earnings. Adjusted EBITDA is computed as ENI excluding unrealized performance fees, unrealized performance fee compensation, unrealized investment income, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense and equity-based compensation.
Income before provision for income taxes is the GAAP financial measure most comparable to ENI, Fee-Related Earnings, Distributable Earnings, and Adjusted EBITDA. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to income before provision for income taxes are included within this press release. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Other Key Terms
Assets under management” or “AUM” refers to the assets managed by Carlyle. AUM equals the sum of the following:

Page | 33



(a) the fair value of the capital invested in Carlyle carry funds, co-investment vehicles, NGP management fee funds and fund of funds vehicles plus the capital that Carlyle is entitled to call from investors in those funds and vehicles (including Carlyle commitments to those funds and vehicles and those of senior Carlyle professionals and employees) pursuant to the terms of their capital commitments to those funds and vehicles;
(b) the amount of aggregate collateral balance and principal cash at par or aggregate principal amount of the notes of our CLOs and other structured products (inclusive of all positions);
(c) the net asset value (pre-redemptions and subscriptions) of Carlyle’s long/short credit, emerging markets, multi-product macroeconomic, mutual fund, fund of hedge funds vehicles and other hedge funds; and
(d) the gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage) of our business development companies.
AUM includes certain energy and renewable resources funds that Carlyle jointly advises with Riverstone Holdings L.L.C. (“Riverstone”) and certain NGP management fee funds and carry funds advised by NGP Energy Capital Management. Carlyle’s calculation of AUM (but not Fee-Earning AUM) includes uncalled commitments to, and the fair value of invested capital in, investment funds from Carlyle and its personnel, regardless of whether such commitments or invested capital are subject to management or performance fees.
Available capital,” commonly known as “dry powder,” for Carlyle’s carry funds and NGP management fee funds refers to the amount of capital commitments available to be called for investments. Amounts previously called may be added back to available capital following certain distributions.
Carlyle funds,” “our funds” and “our investment funds” refer to the investment funds and vehicles advised by Carlyle.
Carry funds” refers to (i) those investment funds that Carlyle advises, including the buyout funds, growth capital funds, real estate funds, infrastructure funds, certain energy funds and distressed debt and mezzanine funds (but excluding Carlyle’s structured credit/other structured product funds, hedge funds, business development companies, mutual fund and fund of funds vehicles), where Carlyle receives a special residual allocation of income, which is referred to as a “carried interest,” in the event that specified investment returns are achieved by the fund and (ii) those investment funds advised by NGP from which we are entitled to receive a carried interest.
“Catch-up management fees” refer to those amounts of management fees charged to fund investors in subsequent closings of a fund which apply to the time period between the fee initiation date and the subsequent closing date.
Expired available capital” occurs when a fund has passed the investment and follow-on periods and can no longer invest capital into new or existing deals. Any remaining available capital, typically a result of either recycled distributions or specific reserves established for the follow-on period that are not drawn, can only be called for fees and expenses and is therefore removed from the total AUM calculation.
Fee-Earning assets under management” or “Fee-Earning AUM” refers to the assets managed by Carlyle from which Carlyle derives recurring fund management fees. Fee-Earning AUM generally equals the sum of:
(a) for substantially all carry funds and certain co-investment vehicles where the investment period has not expired and for Metropolitan fund of funds vehicles during the weighted-average investment period of the underlying funds, the amount of limited partner capital commitments, for AlpInvest fund of funds vehicles, the amount of external investor capital commitments during the commitment fee period, and for the NGP management fee funds and certain carry funds advised by NGP, the amount of investor capital commitments before the first investment realization;
(b) for substantially all carry funds and certain co-investment vehicles where the investment period has expired and for Metropolitan fund of funds vehicles after the expiration of the weighted-average investment period of the underlying funds, the remaining amount of limited partner invested capital, and for the NGP management fee funds

and certain carry funds advised by NGP where the first investment has been realized, the amount of partner commitments less realized and written-off investments;
(c) the amount of aggregate fee-earning collateral balance at par of our collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), as defined in the fund indentures (typically exclusive of equities and defaulted positions) as of the quarterly cut-off date for each CLO, and the aggregate principal amount of the notes of our other structured products;
(d) the net asset value of our mutual fund and the external investor portion of the net asset value (pre-redemptions and subscriptions) of our long/short credit funds, emerging markets, multi-product macroeconomic, fund of hedge funds vehicles and other hedge funds;
(e) the gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage), excluding cash and cash equivalents of our business development companies and certain carry funds; and
(f) for AlpInvest fund of funds vehicles where the commitment fee period has expired, and certain carry funds where the investment period has expired, the lower of cost or fair value of invested capital.
Fee-Earning AUM includes certain energy and renewable resources carry funds that Carlyle jointly advises with Riverstone and certain NGP management fee funds and carry funds advised by NGP Energy Capital Management. Fee-Earning AUM includes only those assets which earn a material fee.
For Carlyle’s carry funds, co-investment vehicles, NGP management fee funds and fund of funds vehicles, total AUM includes the fair value of the capital invested, whereas Fee-Earning AUM includes the amount of capital commitments or the remaining amount of invested capital at cost, depending on whether the investment period for the fund has expired. As such, Fee-Earning AUM may be greater than total AUM when the aggregate fair value of the remaining investments is less than the cost of those investments.
“Fund of funds vehicles” refers to those funds, accounts and vehicles advised by AlpInvest Partners B.V., Metropolitan Real Estate Equity Management, LLC, and Diversified Global Asset Management Corporation.
“NGP management fee funds” refer to those funds advised by NGP Energy Capital Management (together with its affiliates and subsidiaries) from which we only receive management fees.
Net accrued performance fees” refers to the accrued performance fees that are attributable to Carlyle’s unitholders. This balance is comprised of accrued performance fees less: accrued giveback obligations, accrued performance fee compensation (inclusive of related tax obligations), and accrued performance fees attributable to non-controlling interests. This balance also excludes net accrued performance fees that have been realized but will be collected in subsequent periods.
Net performance fees” refers to the performance fees from Carlyle funds and fund of funds vehicles net of the portion allocated to Carlyle investment professionals (including related tax expense) which is reflected as performance fee related compensation expense.
Performance fees” consist principally of carried interest from carry funds and certain fund of funds vehicles and incentive fees or allocations from certain of our Global Market Strategies funds. Carlyle is generally entitled to a 20% allocation (or 1.8% to 10% in the case of most of the fund of funds vehicles) of the net realized income or gain as a carried interest after returning the invested capital, the allocation of preferred returns of generally 8% to 9% and the return of certain fund costs (subject to catch-up provisions as set forth in the fund limited partnership agreement). Carried interest revenue, which is a component of performance fees in Carlyle’s consolidated financial statements, is recognized by Carlyle upon appreciation of the valuation of the applicable funds’ investments above certain return hurdles as set forth in each respective partnership agreement and is based on the amount that would be due to Carlyle pursuant to the fund partnership agreement at each period end as if the funds were liquidated at such date.

Realized net performance fees” refers to the realized performance fees from Carlyle funds and fund of funds vehicles net of the portion allocated to Carlyle investment professionals (including related tax expense) which is reflected as realized performance fee related compensation expense.
