The Carlyle Group Announces First Quarter 2016 Financial Results

Washington, DC, April 27, 2016 – Global alternative asset manager The Carlyle Group L.P. (NASDAQ: CG) today reported its unaudited results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016.

Carlyle Co-CEO David M. Rubenstein said, “Despite the challenging market backdrop in the first quarter, we deployed a significant amount of capital, produced a reasonable amount of Distributable Earnings and positioned ourselves for strong performance in the coming quarters. We continue to manage our business with a long term perspective, however, the second quarter is already off to a good start.”

Carlyle Co-CEO William E. Conway, Jr. said, “We have invested almost $8 billion in capital from our carry funds over the past two quarters across various geographies and asset classes, and we still have $43 billion in carry fund dry powder to deploy. We are well positioned to take advantage of opportunities and deliver good results for our fund investors and unitholders.”

U.S. GAAP results for Q1 2016 included income before provision for income taxes of $15 million, and net income attributable to the common unitholders through The Carlyle Group L.P. of $8 million, or net income per common unit of $0.01, on a diluted basis. U.S. GAAP results for the twelve months ended March 31, 2016 included loss before provision for income taxes of $198 million. Total balance sheet assets were $9 billion as of March 31, 2016.

Carlyle adopted new U.S. GAAP consolidation guidance on January 1, 2016, which resulted in the deconsolidation of certain Carlyle sponsored funds and CLOs. While the adoption of this guidance impacted net income, it did not impact net income attributable to Carlyle Holdings or net income attributable to The Carlyle Group L.P. However, the adoption of this guidance reduced total assets, liabilities and partners' capital.

In addition to this release, Carlyle issued a full detailed presentation of its first quarter 2016 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 $0.26 per common unit to holders of record at the close of business on May 16, 2016, payable on May 25, 2016.

Conference Call

Carlyle will host a conference call at 8:30 a.m. EDT on Wednesday, April 27, 2016 to announce its first quarter 2016 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.

First Quarter Distribution

The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly distribution of $0.26 per common unit to holders of record at the close of business on May 16, 2016, payable on May 25, 2016.

Distribution Policy

It is Carlyle’s intention to cause Carlyle Holdings to make quarterly distributions to its partners, including The Carlyle Group L.P.’s wholly owned subsidiaries, that will enable The Carlyle Group L.P. to pay a quarterly distribution of approximately 75% of Distributable Earnings per common unit, net of taxes and amounts payable under the tax receivable agreement, for the quarter. 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.

Performance Metrics

Carlyle evaluates the underlying performance of its business on four key metrics: funds raised, equity invested, carry fund returns and realized proceeds for fund investors. The table below highlights the results of these metrics for Q1 2016, year-to-date (YTD) and for the last twelve months (LTM)¹.

During Q1 2016, Carlyle generated $0.1 billion of net funds raised. Carlyle raised gross new capital of $2.2 billion across its fund platform, which was largely offset by gross redemptions of $1.8 billion in our hedge fund partnerships and the return of $0.3 billion in fund investor capital related to our previously announced wind down of Diversified Global Asset Management ("DGAM").



Net Funds Raised					Equity Invested
Q1	$0.1 billion				Q1	$3.9 billion
	YTD:	$0.1 bn	LTM:	$12.1 bn		YTD:	$3.9 bn	LTM:	$11.3 bn

Realized Proceeds					Carry Fund Returns
Q1	$3.2 billion				Q1	1%
	YTD:	$3.2 bn	LTM:	$16.7 bn		YTD:	1%	LTM:	1%

Note: Equity Invested and Realized Proceeds reflect carry funds only.

During Q1 2016, within its carry funds, Carlyle generated realized proceeds of $3.2 billion from 114 investments across 40 carry funds. Carlyle invested $3.9 billion of equity in 128 new or follow-on investments across 25 carry funds in Q1 2016. On an LTM basis, Carlyle realized proceeds of $16.7 billion and invested $11.3 billion.

Carlyle All Segment Results


•	Distributable Earnings (DE): $129 million for Q1 2016 and $904 million on an LTM basis


◦	Distributable Earnings were $129 million for Q1 2016, or $0.35 per common unit on a post-tax basis, compared to $148 million for Q1 2015. DE was $904 million on an LTM basis, 4% lower than the prior LTM.

◦

Fee-Related Earnings (FRE) were $51 million for Q1 2016, in line with $51 million for Q1 2015. Compared to Q1 2015, fee revenues were relatively flat as catch-up management fees of $5 million were $18 million lower than Q1 2015, while transaction fees were $19 million higher than Q1 2015, primarily due to the closing of a large transaction in one of our buyout funds during Q1 2016. Cash compensation of $162 million, excluding equity-based compensation, was $11 million lower compared to Q1 2015, while general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization were $10 million higher than in Q1 2015. FRE was $199 million on an LTM basis, 24% lower than the prior LTM.

◦

Realized Net Performance Fees were $70 million for Q1 2016, compared to $178 million for Q1 2015, due to a lower level of realizations in Corporate Private Equity and Real Assets funds, as well as a lower effective carry rate on realized gains in certain Corporate Private Equity funds. For Q1 2016, net realized performance fees included fees related to exits in Landmark Aviation, WorldStrides, Seven Days Group Holding Ltd, and B&B Investments, among others. Realized Net Performance Fees were $680 million on an LTM basis, 12% lower than the prior LTM.


◦	Realized Investment Income was $8 million in Q1 2016, with gains in certain Corporate Private Equity and Real Estate investments.


•	Economic Net Income (Loss) (ENI): $89 million for Q1 2016 and $212 million on an LTM basis

◦

Q1 2016 ENI was positively impacted by strong carry fund valuations in our real estate and U.S. buyout funds, partially offset by depreciation in our Asia buyout funds. Lower valuations in Global Market Strategies and Legacy Energy funds had limited impact on net performance fees. Net performance fees were $75 million compared to $282 million in Q1 2015. On an LTM basis, ENI of $212 million was 77% lower than the prior LTM.


◦	Carlyle generated ENI per Adjusted Unit of $0.18 on a post-tax basis for Q1 2016. The Q1 2016 provision for income tax was higher than prior periods as a larger share of quarterly income was subject to corporate tax relative to prior periods.

Carry Fund Performance and Net Accrued Performance Fees

Carlyle's carry fund portfolio valuation increased 1% during Q1 2016. Over the past twelve months, Carlyle’s carry fund portfolio valuation also increased 1%. The carry fund public portfolio appreciated 1% during Q1 2016 while the carry fund private portfolio was flat. First quarter valuations were positively impacted by strength in U.S. Buyout and U.S. Real Estate funds, while depreciation in Global Market Strategies, Natural Resources and Legacy Energy carry funds negatively impacted overall appreciation.

As of Q1 2016, net accrued performance fees of $1.3 billion were up slightly from the end of Q4 2015 but lower compared to $1.8 billion at the end of Q1 2015. The decline compared to Q1 2015 is primarily due to strong 2015 exit activity in Corporate Private Equity and Real Estate funds that realized carry.

(1) Appreciation/(Depreciation) represents unrealized gain/(loss) 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.

(2) 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 opportunistic credit, distressed debt and mezzanine funds (but excluding our structured credit/other structured product funds, hedge funds, business development companies, mutual fund, 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.

(3) 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 the 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 18% based on remaining fair value invested as of March 31, 2016.

(4) Natural Resources is comprised of NGP, infrastructure, power, and international energy funds.

(5) Includes structured credit/other structured product funds, hedge funds, business development companies, mutual fund, and fund of funds vehicles.

Assets Under Management and Remaining Fair Value of Capital


•	Total Assets Under Management: $178.1 billion as of Q1 2016 (-8% LTM)


◦	Major drivers of change versus Q4 2015: Commitments, net of expired capital (+$1.1 billion) and foreign exchange impact (+$2.7 billion), offset by net distributions (-$4.9 billion), net redemptions (-$1.8 billion) and market depreciation (-$1.0 billion).


◦	Total Dry Powder of $56.6 billion as of Q1 2016, comprised of $23.1 billion in Corporate Private Equity, $4.7 billion in Global Market Strategies, $15.4 billion in Real Assets and $13.3 billion in Investment Solutions.


•	Fee-Earning Assets Under Management: $130.3 billion as of Q1 2016 (+1% LTM)


◦	Major drivers of change versus Q4 2015: Inflows, including fee-paying commitments (+$2.7 billion) and foreign exchange increases (+$2.0 billion), offset by net distributions and outflows (-$2.1 billion), net redemptions (-$1.7 billion) and market depreciation (-$0.6 billion).


◦	Fee-Earning AUM was positively impacted during the first quarter by follow-on commitments into our second energy mezzanine fund and second power fund, and activation of mandates in our AlpInvest fund of funds vehicles and Metropolitan fund vehicles, offset by redemptions in our hedge fund partnerships and return of capital to DGAM investors.


◦	During Q1 2016, our hedge funds partnerships returned $1.8 billion in gross redemptions to their fund investors. Over the next several quarters, our hedge fund partnerships expect to return an incremental $1-2 billion in additional redemptions, excluding potential gross inflows.


•	Remaining Fair Value of Capital (carry funds only) as of Q1 2016: $58.5 billion


◦	Current Multiple of Invested Capital (MOIC) of remaining fair value of capital: 1.2x.


◦	Total Fair Value derived from investments made in 2011 or earlier: 39%.


◦	AUM in-carry ratio as of the end of Q1 2016: 45%. The change versus the prior quarter is due to our most recent vintage U.S. real estate fund coming into carry.

Note: Data as of March 31, 2016. (1) Fair value of remaining carry fund capital in the ground, by vintage. Totals may not sum due to rounding.

◦

Fee-Related Earnings (FRE) were $32 million for Q1 2016, compared to $22 million for Q1 2015. The increase in Q1 2016 was driven by higher transaction fees of $20 million in Q1 2016 compared to $2 million in Q1 2015, and was partially offset by lower management fees compared to Q1 2015. Catch-up management fees were less than $1 million in Q1 2016 compared to $12 million in Q1 2015. FRE was $116 million on an LTM basis, compared to $138 million for the prior LTM.


◦	Realized Net Performance Fees were $68 million for Q1 2016, compared to $169 million for Q1 2015. Carlyle Partners V and Carlyle Asia Partners III generated the majority of CPE's realized net performance fees in Q1 2016. Realized Net Performance Fees were $567 million on an LTM basis, compared to $679 million for the prior LTM.


◦	Realized Investment Income was $5 million for Q1 2016, compared to $3 million for Q1 2015. Results for Q1 2016 were primarily driven by realized gains in our large buyout funds. Realized Investment Income was $25 million on an LTM basis, compared to $19 million for the prior LTM.


•	Economic Net Income (ENI): $32 million for Q1 2016 and $143 million on an LTM basis, compared to $892 million for the prior LTM. The LTM decline relative to the prior LTM was largely attributable to lower appreciation in our carry funds, as well as by modestly lower FRE and higher equity compensation.


◦	CPE carry fund valuations increased 1% in Q1 2016 and increased 5% on an LTM basis, compared to an increase of 8% in Q1 2015.


◦	Net Performance Fees were $19 million for Q1 2016, compared to $274 million for Q1 2015. Net Performance Fees were $112 million on an LTM basis, compared to $772 million for the prior LTM.


•	Total Assets Under Management (AUM): $61.1 billion as of Q1 2016 (-5% LTM).


◦	Funds Raised in Q1 2016 of $0.1 billion were attributable to a final closing in our second U.S. mid-market buyout fund. We are currently raising capital for our latest vintage Asia growth fund and our long dated, global partners investment fund.


◦	Fee-Earning Assets Under Management of $40.9 billion was flat as compared to Q4 2015 and increased 4% versus Q1 2015. Major drivers of change versus Q4 2015: Foreign exchange and other (+$0.4 billion), inflows including fee-paying commitments (+$0.3 billion), offset by (-$0.7 billion) in outflows, including distributions and basis step downs.

Distributable Earnings (DE): $1 million for Q1 2016 and $31 million on an LTM basis, compared to $78 million for the prior LTM. The following components impacted DE in Q1 2016:

◦

Fee-Related Earnings (FRE) were $(1) million for Q1 2016, compared to $5 million for Q1 2015. The decline was driven by lower earnings from our hedge fund partnerships and commodities funds, partially offset by lower cash compensation expense. The effect of commencing management fees on our second energy mezzanine funds at the end of December 2015 was largely offset this quarter by $5 million of fundraising costs in connection with closes in our latest vintage distressed debt and energy mezzanine funds. FRE was $6 million on an LTM basis, compared to $53 million for the prior LTM.


◦	Realized Net Performance Fees were $1 million for Q1 2016, compared to $2 million for Q1 2015. Realized Net Performance Fees were $20 million on an LTM basis, compared to $16 million for the prior LTM.


◦	Realized Investment Income was $1 million for Q1 2016, compared to $2 million in Q1 2015. Realized Investment Income was $5 million on an LTM basis compared to $9 million for the prior LTM.


•	Economic Net Income/(Loss) (ENI): $(6) million for Q1 2016 and $(55) million on an LTM basis, compared to $68 million for the prior LTM.


◦	GMS carry fund valuations depreciated 12% in Q1 2016, as compared to 3% appreciation in Q1 2015, primarily owing to challenging energy credit markets. The asset-weighted hedge fund performance of our reported funds was (4.6)% in Q1 2016.


◦	Net Performance Fees of $2 million for Q1 2016, compared to $13 million for Q1 2015. Net Performance Fees were $(25) million on an LTM basis, compared to $33 million for the prior LTM.


•	Total Assets Under Management (AUM): $34.0 billion as of Q1 2016 (-7% LTM).


◦	Fee-Earning AUM of $28.6 billion declined 8% versus Q4 2015 and declined 11% versus Q1 2015.


◦	Total hedge fund AUM ended Q1 2016 at $6.3 billion, versus $8.3 billion at Q4 2015 and $11.3 billion at Q1 2015. During the quarter, our hedge fund partnerships returned $1.8 billion in gross redemptions to their fund investors. Over the next several quarters, our hedge fund partnerships expect to return an incremental $1-2 billion in additional redemptions to fund investors.


◦	GMS carry fund AUM ended Q1 2016 at $6.8 billion.


◦	Total structured credit/other structured product fund AUM ended Q1 2016 at $19.5 billion.

•	Distributable Earnings (DE): $20 million for Q1 2016 and $154 million on an LTM basis, compared to $64 million for the prior LTM, excluding the impact of the Q1 2015 French tax judgment of $(80) million. The following components impacted DE in Q1 2016.

◦

Fee-Related Earnings (FRE) were $16 million for Q1 2016, compared to $19 million for Q1 2015. The decline in Q1 2016 is due to modestly lower management fee revenue and higher interest expense relative to Q1 2015. Catch up management fees in Q1 2016 were $4 million compared to $11 million in Q1 2015. The decrease in catch up management fees was largely offset by the increase in management fees resulting from the activation of fees on NGP XI. FRE was $69 million on an LTM basis, compared to $41 million for the prior LTM.


◦	Realized Net Performance Fees were $1 million for Q1 2016, compared to $6 million for Q1 2015. The decline in Q1 2016 compared to Q1 2015 is due to lower realizations in U.S. Real Estate funds. Realized Net Performance Fees were $90 million on an LTM basis, compared to $64 million for the prior LTM.

◦

Realized Investment Income (Loss) was $2 million for Q1 2016, compared to $(86) million for Q1 2015. The increase in Q1 2016 is attributable to various real estate and energy investments, while the loss in Q1 2015 owed to the adverse French tax judgment million in one of our European Real Estate funds. Realized investment income (loss) was $(5) million on an LTM basis, compared to $(41) million for the prior LTM, excluding the impact of the Q1 2015 French tax judgment.


•	Economic Net Income (Loss) (ENI): $62 million for Q1 2016 and $128 million on an LTM basis, compared to $(30) million for the prior LTM, excluding the impact of the Q1 2015 French tax judgment.


◦	Real Assets carry fund valuations appreciated 1% in Q1 2016, compared to 2% appreciation in Q1 2015.

◦

Net Performance Fees were $54 million for Q1 2016, compared to $(9) million for Q1 2015. Net performance fees were positively impacted by strength in U.S. Real Estate V and VI, while our seventh U.S. Real Estate fund moved into an accrued carry position for the first time, partially offset by the Legacy Energy funds. Net Performance Fees were $89 million on an LTM basis, compared to $(28) million for the prior LTM.


•	Total Assets Under Management (AUM): $36.7 billion for Q1 2016 (-14% LTM).


◦	Funds Raised in Q1 2016 of $0.2 billion were driven largely by a final closing on our second Power fund.


◦	Fee-Earning Assets Under Management of $30.7 billion in Q1 2016 declined by 1% versus Q4 2015 and increased 11% versus Q1 2015. Major drivers of change versus Q4 2015: inflows, including fee-paying commitments (+$0.3 billion), offset by outflows, including distributions (-$0.7 billion).

•	Distributable Earnings (DE): $4 million for Q1 2016 and $10 million on an LTM basis, compared to $40 million for the prior LTM.


◦	Fee-Related Earnings (FRE) were $3 million for Q1 2016, compared to $6 million for Q1 2015. The decrease was largely attributable to lower management fees and slightly higher general and administrative expenses. FRE was $7 million on an LTM basis, compared to $29 million for the prior LTM.


◦	Realized Net Performance Fees were $1 million for Q1 2016, compared to $1 million for Q1 2015. Realized Net Performance Fees were $3 million on an LTM basis, compared to $11 million for the prior LTM.


•	Economic Net Income (Loss) (ENI) was break even for Q1 2016 and $(3) million on an LTM basis, compared to $39 million for the prior LTM.


◦	Net Performance Fees were break even for Q1 2016, compared to $4 million in Q1 2015. Net Performance Fees were $9 million on an LTM basis, compared to $15 million for the prior LTM.

•

During Q1 2016 we decided to restructure our Investment Solutions segment to focus on private market secondaries, primary investments, co-investment and managed account activities and, given the challenging market environment, discontinue our fund of hedge funds and liquid alternative initiatives. In connection with the restructuring, we commenced a wind down of the operations of Diversified Global Asset Management (DGAM), a global manager of hedge funds.


◦	DGAM returned $0.3 billion to its fund investors during Q1 2016. Over the next several quarters, we expect to return the remaining $1.5 billion in AUM to DGAM fund investors.


◦	We expect the actions we have taken regarding DGAM will improve our Investment Solutions results in the future, exclusive of costs incurred in connection with the wind down.


•	Total Assets Under Management (AUM): $46.3 billion for Q1 2016 (-6% LTM).


◦	Total AUM declined 6% from Q1 2015 due to distributions (-$9.6 billion) and net redemptions of (-$0.5 billion), partially offset by market appreciation (+$3.8 billion), increases in foreign exchange (+$2.1 billion), and new commitments (+$1.4 billion).


•	Fee-Earning Assets Under Management of $30.2 billion in Q1 2016 was 7% higher versus Q4 2015 and was 1% lower compared to Q1 2015. Major drivers of change versus Q4 2015: Inflows including fee-paying commitments (+$1.8 billion) and an increase in foreign exchange (+$1.1 billion), offset by outflows including distributions and basis step downs (-$0.5 billion) and net subscriptions (-$0.3 billion).

(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. Our hedge fund partnerships had outstanding redemption requests for $1.5 billion in the aggregate as of the beginning of the second quarter of 2016 and our fund of hedge funds vehicles at DGAM, which are currently in the process of winding-down, had approximately $1.5 billion of AUM at March 31, 2016.

(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. Depreciation for the first quarter of 2016 was driven by declines in our hedge funds partially offset by appreciation in the public portfolio of our carry funds of $0.2 billion, or 1% and appreciation in the private portfolio of our carry funds of $0.1 billion, or 0%. Appreciation for the twelve months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily driven by appreciation in the private portfolio of our carry funds of $0.8 billion (2%) while our public portfolio of carry funds remained flat. Remaining market appreciation for the twelve months ended March 31, 2016 was driven by appreciation in our fund of funds vehicles ($3.8 billion), offset by depreciation in our hedge funds of $1.2 billion and NGP Management Fee Funds of $1.9 billion.

(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 $19.5 billion from our structured credit /other structured product funds, $6.3 billion in our hedge funds, $6.8 billion (including $4.7 billion of Available Capital) in our carry funds, and $1.4 billion from our business development companies.

(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, 2015) as provided by their general partners, plus the net cash flows since the latest valuation, up to March 31, 2016.

(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, CBPF, and MENA.

(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, 2016, these excluded investments represent $0.5 billion of AUM at AlpInvest and $1.9 billion of AUM at Metropolitan.

Remaining Fair Value Analysis, Notes

(1) Net asset value of our carry funds. Reflects significant funds with remaining fair value of greater than $100 million.

(2) Unrealized multiple of invested capital (“MOIC”) represents remaining fair market value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest, divided by investment cost.

(3) Total MOIC represents total fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest, divided by cumulative invested capital.

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, changes in the tax receivable agreement liability, acquisition-related items including amortization and impairment 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 collateralized loan obligations (“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. 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 or “FRE,” is a component of ENI and is used to assess the ability of the business to cover base compensation and operating expenses from fee revenues other than performance fees. FRE differs from income (loss) before provision for income taxes computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP in that it adjusts for the items included in the calculation of ENI and also adjusts ENI to exclude net performance fees, investment income (loss), from investments in Carlyle funds, equity-based compensation and certain general, administrative and other expenses when the timing of any future payment is uncertain. FRE is reported as part of Carlyle’s segment results.

•

Distributable Earnings or “DE,” is FRE plus realized net performance fees and realized investment income (loss), and is used to assess performance and amounts potentially available for distribution from Carlyle Holdings to its unitholders. DE is intended to show the amount of net realized earnings without the effects of Consolidated Funds. DE is evaluated regularly by management in making resource deployment and compensation decisions across our four reportable segments and for compensation. DE is reported as part of Carlyle's segment results.


•	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:

(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 opportunistic credit, 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;

Page | 34

(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 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.

“VIE” refers to a variable interest entity, as that term is defined in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 810, Consolidation.
