The Carlyle Group Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2017 Financial Results

Washington, DC, February 7, 2018 – Global alternative asset manager The Carlyle Group L.P. (NASDAQ: CG) today reported its unaudited results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2017.

Carlyle Co-CEOs Kewsong Lee and Glenn Youngkin said, “We concluded 2017 with great momentum in all of our businesses. We had record activity across several dimensions during 2017, deploying $22 billion into new investments and raising $43 billion of capital across the platform. Our investment performance was exceptional with 20% appreciation across our carry funds, and we realized $26 billion of proceeds for our carry fund investors.”

U.S. GAAP results for Q4 2017 and 2017 included income before provision for income taxes of $395 million and $1,132 million, and net income attributable to The Carlyle Group L.P. common unitholders of $53 million and $238 million, or net income per common unit of $0.49 and $2.38, on a diluted basis. Total balance sheet assets were $12 billion as of December 31, 2017.
In addition to this release, Carlyle issued a full detailed presentation of its fourth quarter and full year 2017 results, which can be viewed on the investor relations section of our website at ir.carlyle.com.

Tax Reform Impact on Financial Results

Following the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, we revalued our net deferred tax assets and tax receivable agreement liability. This resulted in a net charge in our Q4 2017 U.S. GAAP earnings of $42 million. The revaluation of our net deferred tax assets increased our provision for income taxes by $113 million in Q4 2017, while the revaluation of our tax receivable liability resulted in $71 million of other non-operating income in the quarter. This non-cash charge did not affect Economic Income or Distributable Earnings.
Distributions
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 February 20, 2018, payable on February 27, 2018. For full year 2017, the Board of Directors declared $1.41 in aggregate distributions to common unitholders.
The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly distribution of $0.367188 per preferred unit to preferred unitholders of record at the close of business on March 1, 2018, payable on March 15, 2018.
Conference Call
Carlyle will host a conference call at 8:30 a.m. EST on Wednesday, February 7, 2018, to announce its fourth quarter and full year 2017 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.

Economic Income of $366 million and $1.3 billion, and Economic Net Income of $1.01 and $3.47 per Adjusted Unit on a post-tax basis in Q4 2017 and in 2017, respectively, driven by carry fund appreciation of 5% in Q4 2017 and 20% in 2017
Distributable Earnings of $156 million on a pre-tax basis for Q4 2017 and $670 million in 2017; Distributable Earnings per common unit of $0.44 in Q4 2017 and $1.88 in 2017, on a post-tax basis

$7.2 billion of invested capital in Q4 2017 and a record $22.0 billion invested in 2017
$24.7 billion of new capital raised in Q4 2017 and a record $43.3 billion in 2017
Washington, DC – Global alternative asset manager The Carlyle Group L.P. (NASDAQ: CG) today reported its unaudited results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2017.

Carlyle Co-CEOs Kewsong Lee and Glenn Youngkin said, “We concluded 2017 with great momentum in all of our businesses. We had record activity across several dimensions during 2017, deploying $22 billion into new investments and raising $43 billion of capital across the platform. Our investment performance was exceptional with 20% appreciation across our carry funds, and we realized $26 billion of proceeds for our carry fund investors.”

U.S. GAAP results for Q4 2017 and 2017 included income before provision for income taxes of $395 million and $1,132 million, and net income attributable to The Carlyle Group L.P. common unitholders of $53 million and $238 million, or net income per common unit of $0.49 and $2.38, on a diluted basis. Total balance sheet assets were $12 billion as of December 31, 2017.


Note: Economic Income is the Non-GAAP financial measure that was formerly defined as “Economic Net Income.” Economic Income represents a pre-tax earnings measure, while Economic Net Income now represents earnings after-tax and after preferred unit distributions. In addition, we have updated our definition of Fee Related Earnings (“FRE”) to exclude the effects of net interest (defined as the difference between interest income and interest expense in our segment results).

Tax Reform Impact on Financial Results
Following the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, we revalued our net deferred tax assets and tax receivable agreement liability. This resulted in a net charge in our Q4 2017 U.S. GAAP earnings of $42 million. The revaluation of our net deferred tax assets increased our provision for income taxes by $113 million in Q4 2017, while the revaluation of our tax receivable liability resulted in $71 million of other non-operating income in the quarter. This non-cash charge did not affect Economic Income or Distributable Earnings.

 
Distributions
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 February 20, 2018, payable on February 27, 2018. For full year 2017, the Board of Directors declared $1.41 in aggregate distributions to common unitholders.
The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly distribution of $0.367188 per preferred unit to preferred unitholders of record at the close of business on March 1, 2018, payable on March 15, 2018.
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 Attributable to Common Unitholders 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, giveback 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.

Income before provision for income taxes(1) was $395 million and $12 million for Q4 2017 and Q4 2016, respectively, and $1,132 million and $45 million for 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in income before provision for income taxes in Q4 2017 compared to Q4 2016 was primarily due to a $202 million increase in net performance fees, a $55 million increase in investment income, and a $53 million decrease in general, administrative and other expenses. As it relates to the full year, the increase in income before provision for income taxes was primarily due to a $707 million increase in net performance fees, a $244 million decrease in general, administrative and other expenses, and a $72 million increase in investment income, primarily due to our investments in NGP. The variance in general, administrative and other expenses in 2017 as compared to 2016 primarily reflects $175 million in commodities charges and $25 million in insurance recoveries in 2016 as compared to the $68 million net insurance recovery and the $25 million reversal of the CCC litigation reserve in 2017. Q4 2017 and the full year 2017 also include within other non-operating income a $71 million reduction in the tax receivable liability resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

Net income (loss) attributable to The Carlyle Group L.P. Common Unitholders was $53 million or $0.49 per common unit on a diluted basis for Q4 2017 and $238 million or $2.38 per common unit on a diluted basis for 2017. The provision for income taxes for Q4 2017 and the full year 2017 includes $113 million related to the revaluation of the net deferred tax assets resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

(1) Income before provision for income taxes is the GAAP measure that is most directly comparable to Economic Income (EI) and Distributable Earnings, which management uses to measure the performance of the business.  In most periods, income before provision for income taxes will be lower than EI principally due to excluding from EI equity compensation from equity issued in conjunction with the initial public offering, acquisitions and strategic investments, as well as other acquisition-related charges, including amortization of intangibles and impairment.  In periods of positive earnings, net income (loss) attributable to The Carlyle Group L.P. Common Unitholders typically will be lower than EI as net income (loss) attributable to The Carlyle Group L.P. Common Unitholders only includes the portion of earnings (approximately 30% before taxes as of December 31, 2017) that is attributable to the public unitholders whereas the calculation of EI reflects the adjusted earnings attributable to all unitholders.  A full reconciliation is included on page 34. See "Non-GAAP Financial Information and Other Key Terms" for additional information.

(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) We generally earn performance fees (or carried interest) from our carry funds representing a 20% allocation of profits generated on third-party capital, and on which the general partner receives a special residual allocation of income from limited partners, which we refer to as carried interest, in the event that specified investment returns are achieved by the fund. Disclosures referring to carry funds also include the impact of certain commitments that do not earn carried interest, but are either part of, or associated with our carry funds. The rate of carried interest, as well as the share of carried interest allocated to Carlyle, may vary across the carry fund platform. See "Non-GAAP Financial Information and Other Key Terms" for more information.
(3) Natural Resources is comprised of NGP, infrastructure, power and international energy funds.
(4) Other primarily reflects the impact of foreign exchange translation.

Realizations of $3.4 billion in Q4 2017 were slightly lower than Q4 2016. Net realized performance fees of $85 million declined versus Q4 2016 as a lower proportion of exits produced realized performance fees compared to prior periods. For the year, CPE Distributable Earnings of $488 million were lower than 2016.
Invested $3.6 billion in Q4 2017 into 31 different investments. For 2017 overall, CPE invested a record $11.1 billion, 41% higher than 2016.

(1) New Commitments reflects the impact of gross fundraising during the period. For funds or vehicles denominated in foreign currencies, this reflects translation at the average quarterly rate, while the separately reported Fundraising metric is translated at the spot rate for each individual closing.
(2) Outflows includes distributions in our carry funds and related co-investment vehicles, NGP management fee funds and separately managed accounts, as well as runoff of CLO collateral balances.
(3) Market Appreciation/(Depreciation) generally represents realized and unrealized gains (losses) on portfolio investments in our carry funds and related co-investment vehicles, NGP management fee funds and separately managed accounts.
(4) Represents the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of our non-U.S. dollar denominated funds. 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.
(5) Includes expiring dry powder, the impact of capital calls for fees and expenses, change in gross asset value for our business development companies and other changes in AUM.
(6) The fair market values for our Investment Solutions carry funds are based on the latest available valuations of the underlying limited partnership interests (in most cases as of September 30, 2017) as provided by their general partners, plus the net cash flows since the latest valuation, up to December 31, 2017.

(1) Inflows represent limited partner capital raised and capital invested by our carry funds and the NGP management fee funds outside the investment period, weighted-average investment period or commitment fee period. Inflows do not include funds raised of $22.1 billion, which are not yet earning fees.
(2) Outflows represent limited partner distributions from our carry funds and NGP management fee funds, changes in basis for our carry funds where the investment period, weighted-average investment period or commitment fee period has expired, and reductions for funds that are no longer calling for fees.
(3) Represents the net result of subscriptions to and redemptions from our hedge funds, mutual fund and fund of hedge funds vehicles.
(4) Represents the change in the aggregate Fee-earning collateral balances at par of our CLOs/structured products, as of the quarterly cut-off dates.
(5) Market Appreciation/(Depreciation) represents realized and unrealized gains (losses) on portfolio investments in our carry funds based on the lower of cost or fair value and net asset value.
(6) Includes activity of funds with fees based on gross asset value. Represents the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of our non-U.S. dollar denominated funds. 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.
(7) Energy II, Energy III, Energy IV, Renew I, and Renew II (collectively, the “Legacy Energy Funds”), are managed with Riverstone Holdings LLC and its affiliates. Affiliates of both Carlyle and Riverstone act as investment advisers to each of the Legacy Energy Funds. With the exception of Energy IV and Renew II, where Carlyle has a minority representation on the funds’ management committees, management of each of the Legacy Energy Funds is vested in committees with equal representation by Carlyle and Riverstone, and the consent of representatives of both Carlyle and Riverstone is required for investment decisions. As of December 31, 2017, the Legacy Energy Funds had, in the aggregate, approximately $5.2 billion in AUM and $3.8 billion in Fee earning AUM. NGP VII, NGP VIII, NGP IX, or in the case of NGP M&R, NGP ETP I, and NGP ETP II, certain affiliated entities (collectively, the “NGP management fee funds”) and NGP X, NGP GAP and NGP XI (referred to herein as, "carry funds"), are managed by NGP Energy Capital Management. As of December 31, 2017, the NGP management fee funds and carry funds had, in the aggregate, approximately $13.0 billion in AUM and $11.2 billion in Fee earning AUM.

(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

Page | 27



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. Fund level IRRs are based on aggregate Limited Partner cash flows, and this blended return may differ from that of individual Limited Partners. As a result, certain funds may generate accrued performance fees with a blended Net IRR that is below the preferred return hurdle for that fund.
(9) Aggregate includes the following funds: CP I, CMG, CVP I, CVP II, CUSGF III, CEVP, CETP I, CAVP I, CAVP II, CAGP III, CSABF, Mexico, CBPF, and MENA.
(10) Includes co-investments and certain other stand-alone investments arranged by us.
(11) Aggregate, which is considered not meaningful, includes the following funds and their respective commencement dates: CSSAF (April 2012) , CPF I (June 2012), CCI (December 2012), CETP III (May 2014), CAGP V (May 2016), and CBPF II (November 2017).
(12) For funds marked “NM,” IRR may be positive or negative, but is not considered meaningful because of the limited time since initial investment and early stage of capital deployment. For funds marked “Neg,” IRR is negative as of reporting period end.
(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, Renew I and Energy I.
(15) Aggregate includes NGP GAP and CCR. Return is not considered meaningful, as the investment period commenced in December 2013 for NGP GAP and October 2016 for CCR.
(16) Aggregate includes the following funds: CMP I, CMP II, CSP I, and CASCOF.
(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, as well as real estate primary fund investments, secondary fund investments and co-investments originated by the Metropolitan Real Estate team. Excluded from the performance information shown are a) investments that were not originated by AlpInvest, and b) Direct Investments, which was spun off from AlpInvest in 2005 and c) LP co-investment vehicles. As of December 31, 2017, these excluded investments represent $0.3 billion of AUM at AlpInvest.
(20) To exclude the impact of FX, all AlpInvest foreign currency cash flows have been converted to Euro at the reporting period spot rate.
(21) Gross Internal Rate of Return (“Gross IRR”) represents the annualized IRR for the period indicated on Limited Partner invested capital based on investment contributions, distributions and unrealized value of the underlying investments, before management fees, expenses and carried interest at the AlpInvest/Metropolitan Real Estate level.
(22) Aggregate includes Main Fund VII - Fund Investments, Main Fund VIII - Fund Investments, Main Fund I - Co-Investments, Main Fund I - Mezzanine Investments, Main Fund IV - Mezzanine Investments, Main Fund V - Mezzanine Investments, AlpInvest CleanTech Funds and funds which are not included as part of a main fund.
(23) Represents the U.S. dollar equivalent balance translated at the spot rate as of period end.

Remaining Fair Value Analysis, Notes
(1) Remaining Fair Value reflects the unrealized carrying value of investments for Corporate Private Equity, Real Assets and Global Credit carry funds and related co-investment vehicles. Significant funds with remaining fair value of greater than $100 million are listed individually.
(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. For certain funds, 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.
(4) Represents cumulative equity invested as of the reporting period divided by total commitments. Amount can be greater than 100% due to the re-investment of recallable distributions to fund investors.
(5) Fund has accrued carry/(giveback) as of the reporting period.
(6) Fund has realized carry in the last twelve months.
(7) Represents the date of the first capital contribution for management fees.

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 Income or “EI,” represents segment net income which includes certain tax expense associated with performance fees 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 EI equals the aggregate of EI for all segments. Carlyle believes that reporting EI 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 EI 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 EI and also adjusts EI to exclude net performance fees, investment income (loss), from investments in Carlyle funds, equity-based compensation, net interest 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. Management also uses DE in our budgeting, forecasting, and the overall management of our segments. DE is reported as part of Carlyle's segment results.
Income before provision for income taxes is the GAAP financial measure most comparable to Economic Income, Fee Related Earnings, and Distributable Earnings. 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 we manage or advise. Our AUM equals the sum of the following:
(a) the aggregate fair value of our carry funds and related co-investment vehicles, NGP management fee funds and separately managed accounts, 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 our long/short credit, emerging markets, multi-product macroeconomic, fund of hedge funds vehicles, mutual fund and other hedge funds; and
(d)
the gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage) of our business development companies, plus the capital that Carlyle is entitled to call from investors in those vehicles pursuant to the terms of their capital commitments to those vehicles.

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” refers to the amount of capital commitments available to be called for investments, which may be reduced for equity invested that is funded via fund credit facility and expected to be called from investors at a later date, plus any additional assets/liabilities at the fund level other than active 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” generally refers to closed-end investment vehicles, in which commitments are drawn down over a specified investment period, and in which the general partner receives a special residual allocation of income from limited partners, which we refer to as carried interest, in the event that specified investment returns are achieved by the fund. Disclosures referring to carry funds will also include the impact of certain commitments which do not earn carried interest, but are either part of, or associated with our carry funds. The rate of carried interest, as well as the share of carried interest allocated to Carlyle, may vary across the carry fund platform. Carry funds generally include the following investment vehicles across our four business segments:
Corporate Private Equity (all): Buyout & growth funds advised by Carlyle
Real Assets: Real estate, power, infrastructure and energy funds advised by Carlyle, as well as those energy funds advised by NGP Capital Management in which Carlyle is entitled to receive a share of carried interest
Global Credit: Distressed credit, corporate mezzanine and energy credit funds, and other closed-end credit funds advised by Carlyle
Investment Solutions: Funds and vehicles advised by AlpInvest Partners B.V. (“AlpInvest”) and Metropolitan Real Estate Equity Management, LLC (“Metropolitan), which include fund, secondary and co-investment strategies 
Carry funds specifically exclude those funds advised by NGP Capital Management in which Carlyle is not entitled to receive a share of carried interest (or “NGP management fee funds”), collateralized loan obligation vehicles (CLOs), business development companies, and our hedge fund platform.

“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.

Distributable Earnings Attributable to Common Unitholders” refers to The Carlyle Group L.P.'s share of Distributable Earnings, After Taxes (other than corporate income taxes attributable to The Carlyle Group L.P.) and Preferred Unit Distributions, net of corporate income taxes attributable to The Carlyle Group L.P. and amounts payable under the tax receivable agreement.

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 we manage or advise from which we derive recurring fund management fees. Our Fee earning AUM is generally based on one of the following, once fees have been activated:
(a)
the amount of limited partner capital commitments, generally for carry funds where the original investment period has not expired, for AlpInvest carry funds during the commitment fee period and for Metropolitan carry funds during the weighted-average investment period of the underlying funds (see “Fee earning AUM based on capital commitments” in the table below for the amount of this component at each period);
(b)
the remaining amount of limited partner invested capital at cost, generally for carry funds and certain co-investment vehicles where the original investment period has expired and Metropolitan carry funds after the expiration of the weighted-average investment period of the underlying funds(see “Fee earning AUM based on invested capital” in the table below for the amount of this component at each period);
(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 (see “Fee earning AUM based on collateral balances, at par” in the table below for the amount of this component at each period);
(d)
the external investor portion of the net asset value of our hedge fund and fund of hedge funds vehicles (pre redemptions and subscriptions), as well as certain carry funds (see “Fee earning AUM based on net asset value” in the table below for the amount of this component at each period);
(e)
the gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage), excluding cash and cash equivalents of our business development companies and certain carry funds (see “Fee earning AUM based on lower of cost or fair value and other” in the table below for the amount of this component at each period); and
(f)
the lower of cost or fair value of invested capital, generally for AlpInvest carry funds where the commitment fee period has expired and certain carry funds where the investment period has expired, (see “Fee earning AUM based on lower of cost or fair value and other” in the table below for the amount of this component at each period).

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 most of our carry funds, 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, depending on whether the original 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.
“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, performance fee-related tax obligations, and accrued performance fees attributable to non-controlling

Page | 39



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 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 incentive fees or allocations from certain Global Credit vehicles. Carlyle is generally entitled to a 20% allocation (or 10% to 20% on certain longer-dated carry funds as well as some external co-investment vehicles, or approximately 2% to 10% in the case of most of the Investment Solutions carry funds and vehicles) of the net realized income or gain as a carried interest after returning the invested capital, the allocation of preferred returns of generally 7% to 9% (or 4% to 7% for certain longer-dated carry funds) 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 vehicles net of the portion allocated to Carlyle investment professionals which is reflected as realized performance fee related compensation expense, and any performance fee-related tax obligations.
VIE” refers to a variable interest entity, as that term is defined in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 810, Consolidation.
