 Item 1. Business.
 Blue Owl is a global alternative asset manager with $251.1 billion in AUM as of December 31, 2024. Anchored by a strong Permanent Capital base, the firm deploys private capital across Credit, GP Strategic Capital and Real Assets platforms on behalf of institutional and private wealth clients. Blue Owl's flexible, consultative approach helps position the firm as a partner of choice for businesses seeking capital solutions to support their sustained growth. The firm's management team is comprised of seasoned investment professionals with decades of experience building alternative investment businesses. Blue Owl employs over 1,100 people globally.
 Blue Owl was formed in May 2021 through the combination of Owl Rock, a leader in credit solutions, and Dyal Capital, a leading capital solutions provider to large private capital managers. In December 2021, we acquired Oak Street, which expanded our offerings to include real estate-focused products. In April 2022, we acquired Wellfleet (as defined in Note 1 to our Financial Statements), which expanded our reach in the broadly syndicated leveraged loans market, including CLO product offerings. In August 2023, the Par Four Acquisition (as defined in Note 1 to our Financial Statements) expanded our liquid credit strategy team. In December 2023, the CHI Acquisition (as defined in Note 1 to our Financial Statements) expanded our offerings to include mid-to-late-stage equity investments into biopharmaceutical and healthcare companies. In June 2024, the Prima Acquisition expanded our real estate finance offerings. In July 2024, the KAM Acquisition expanded our offerings to provide solutions for insurance clients. In September 2024, the Atalaya Acquisition expanded our alternative investment credit-focused products.
 Our breadth of offerings and Permanent Capital base enable us to offer a differentiated, holistic framework of capital solutions to middle market companies, large alternative asset managers and corporate real estate owners and tenants. We provide these solutions through our Permanent Capital vehicles and long-dated private funds, that we believe provide our business with a high degree of earnings stability and predictability. Our Permanent Capital vehicles generally have an indefinite term and do not have requirements to exit investments after a prescribed period to return invested capital to investors, except as required by applicable law or pursuant to redemption requests that can only be made after significant lock-up periods. For the year ended December 31, 2024, approximately 91% of our management fees were earned from Permanent Capital vehicles.
 Our global, high-caliber investor base includes a diversified mix of institutional investors, including prominent public and private pension funds, endowments, foundations, family offices, private banks, high net worth individuals, asset managers and insurance companies, as well as retail clients, accessed through well-known wealth management firms. We have continued to grow our investor base and presence in the growing private markets and alternative asset management sector by emphasizing our disciplined investment approach, client service, and portfolio performance.
 Our management takes a one-firm approach when making operating decisions and determining how to allocate resources. As a result, we currently operate as a single reportable segment. Management regularly reviews our revenues by product line and our expenses by type at the total firm level, and therefore we have presented details of our operating results throughout this report consistent with how management reviews our results.
 Our revenues are generated primarily from the investment advisory and management agreements we have with our products. See Note 2 to our Financial Statements for a detailed description of how we earn our revenues. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations presents additional information on our revenues and operating results, as well as historical AUM and performance information for certain of our products; such information should be read in conjunction with this description of our business.
 Our Products
 We have three major product platforms: Credit, GP Strategic Capital and Real Assets. We believe our products, while distinct, are complementary to each other and together enable us to provide a differentiated offering of varied capital solutions. All of our products employ a disciplined investment philosophy with a focus on long-term investment horizons and are managed by tenured leadership and investment professionals with significant experience in their respective platforms.
 As the investment manager of our products, we invest that capital with the goal of generating attractive, risk-based returns for the investors in our products. In many of our products, we may use leverage to increase the size of the investments our products are able to make. We generally earn management fees on the amount of FPAUM that we manage; therefore, the growth and success of our product offerings is paramount to our success as an alternative asset manager.

 Our products create a robust foundation for our holistic business. We believe the success and growth in our business since inception has been driven by a singular, dedicated focus on providing capital solutions and the differentiating competitive features of our business.

 Our Credit products offer private financing solutions to primarily upper-middle-market companies. We believe our breadth of offerings establishes us as a lending partner of choice for private equity sponsored companies, as well as non-sponsored borrowers. Our investment capabilities also span the alternative credit and asset-based finance markets, allowing us to harness the power of our collective insights and provide innovative capital structure solutions for our borrowers and partners. Our Credit products are generally offered through a mix of our BDCs, long-dated private funds, managed accounts and CLOs across the following investment strategies:
 • Direct Lending: Our direct lending strategy focuses on lending to primarily upper-middle-market companies, both private equity-sponsored and non-sponsored, providing a range of customized financing solutions across debt and equity-related instruments. Within direct lending, we aim to lend capital to sizable, defensive businesses operating in recession-resistant industries or non-cyclical end markets.
 Diversified Lending: Our diversified lending strategy seeks to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by targeting investment opportunities with favorable risk-adjusted returns across credit cycles with an emphasis on preserving capital primarily through originating and making loans to, and making debt and equity investments in, U.S. middle market companies. We provide a wide range of financing solutions with a strong focus on the top of the capital structure and operate this strategy through diversification by borrower, sector, sponsor and position size. Our diversified lending strategy is primarily offered to investors through our BDCs.

 Technology Lending: Our technology lending strategy seeks to maximize total return by generating current income from our debt investments and other income producing securities, and capital appreciation from our equity and equity-linked investments primarily through originating and making loans to, and making debt and equity investments in, technology-related companies based primarily in the United States. We originate and invest in senior secured or unsecured loans, subordinated loans or mezzanine loans, and equity and equity-related securities including common equity, warrants, preferred stock and similar forms of senior equity, which may be convertible into common equity of companies in which our products invest (which we refer to as "portfolio companies"). Our technology lending strategy invests in a broad range of established and high growth technology companies that are capitalizing on the large and growing demand for technology products and services. This strategy focuses on companies that operate in technology-related industries or sectors which include, but are not limited to, information technology, application or infrastructure software, financial services, data and analytics, security, cloud computing, communications, life sciences, healthcare, media, consumer electronics, semi-conductor, internet commerce and advertising, environmental, aerospace and defense industries and sectors. Our technology lending strategy is primarily offered to investors through our technology-focused BDCs.
 First Lien Lending: Our first lien lending strategy seeks to realize current income with an emphasis on preservation of capital primarily through originating primary transactions in and, to a lesser extent, secondary transactions of first lien senior secured loans in or related to private equity sponsored, middle market businesses based primarily in the United States. Our first lien strategy is offered to investors through our long-dated private funds and managed accounts.
 Opportunistic Lending: Our opportunistic lending strategy seeks to generate attractive, risk-adjusted returns by taking advantage of credit opportunities in U.S. middle market companies with liquidity needs and market leaders seeking to improve their balance sheets. We focus on high-quality companies that could be experiencing disruption, dislocation, distress or transformational change. We aim to be the partner of choice for companies by being well-equipped to provide a variety of financing solutions to meet a broad range of situations, including the following: (i) rescue financing, (ii) new issuance and recapitalizations, (iii) wedge capital, (iv) debtor-in-possession loans, (v) financing for additional liquidity and covenant relief and (vi) broken syndications. Our opportunistic lending strategy is offered to investors through our long-dated private funds and managed accounts.
 • Alternative Credit: Our alternative credit strategy targets credit-oriented investments in markets underserved by traditional lenders or the broader capital markets, with deep expertise investing across specialty finance, private corporate credit and equipment leasing.
 • Investment Grade Credit: Our investment grade credit strategy focuses on generating capital-efficient investment income through asset-backed finance, private corporate credit, and structured products. Tailored for insurance companies, this strategy emphasizes reliable returns while prioritizing capital preservation and industry regulatory compliance.
 • Liquid Credit: Our liquid credit strategy seeks to generate attractive, risk-adjusted returns by managing portfolios of broadly syndicated leveraged loans, including through CLO vehicles.
 • Other: Our other Credit strategies employ various investment strategies to pursue long-term capital appreciation and risk adjusted returns, including (i) direct investments in strategic equity assets, with a focus on single-asset GP-led continuation funds and (ii) investments in mid-to-late-stage biopharmaceutical and healthcare companies.
 Our GP Strategic Capital products position us as a leading capital solutions provider to private capital managers. We primarily focus on acquiring equity stakes in, or providing debt financing to, private capital firms, which we may refer to as "GPs" or "Partner Managers." Our Business Services Platform is a boutique consulting unit within Blue Owl and was established to provide strategic support to our Partner Managers. Our GP Strategic Capital products are offered primarily through Permanent Capital private fund vehicles across the following investment strategies:

 • GP Minority Stakes: We build diversified portfolios of minority equity investments in institutionalized alternative asset management firms across multiple strategies, geographies, and asset classes. Our investment objective is to generate compelling cash yield by collecting a set percentage of contractually fixed management fees, a set percentage of carried interest and a return on balance sheet investments from the underlying managers. We primarily focus on acquiring minority positions in multi-product alternative asset managers who continue to gain a disproportionate proportion of the assets flowing into private investment strategies and exhibit high levels of stability. Our inaugural products followed a hedge fund manager-focused investment program that has since evolved into a private capital manager-focused investment program in our more recent products focused on institutional private markets-focused firms that generally have fee-paying assets under management over $10 billion. We have an additional product offering, which is a strategic and economic venture between Blue Owl and a global alternative asset manager headquartered in Abu Dhabi, that focuses on building a diversified portfolio of minority equity stakes in mid-sized institutional private markets-focused firms that generally have fee-paying assets under management of less than $10 billion. Our GP minority stakes strategy is offered to investors through our closed-end, Permanent Capital funds. A fundamental component of the fundraising efforts for our investment programs is the ability to identify and execute co-investment opportunities for our investors. We may offer, from time to time and in our sole discretion, co-investment opportunities in certain fund investments to certain investors, generally with no management or incentive-based fee.
 • GP Debt Financing: The GP debt financing strategy focuses on originating and making collateralized, long-term debt investments, preferred equity investments and structured investments in private capital managers. We originate and invest in secured term loans that are collateralized by substantially all of the assets of a manager and become subject to repayment on an accelerated basis pursuant to cash flow sweeps of set percentages of management fees, GP realization, carried interest and other fee streams of the management company in the event that certain minimum coverage ratios are not maintained. Our investment objective is to generate current income by targeting investment opportunities with attractive risk-adjusted returns. We expect that the loans will be made primarily to allow borrowers to support business growth, fund GP commitments, and launch new strategies. The GP debt financing strategy allows us to offer a comprehensive suite of solutions to private capital managers.
 • Professional Sports Minority Stakes: Our professional sports minority stakes strategy focuses on building diversified portfolios of minority equity investments in professional sports teams. Our investment objective is to purchase minority equity interests at attractive valuations while generating a compelling return primarily through participation in potential cash distributions, capital appreciation, and/or control ownership sales.
 Our Real Assets products focus on two primary investment strategies: net lease and real estate credit. Our Real Assets products are offered primarily through Permanent Capital vehicles, including our non-traded REIT, and long-dated private funds.
 • Net Lease: Our net lease real estate strategy structures portfolios of primarily single-tenant properties across industrial, essential retail and mission critical office sectors, occupied by investment-grade or creditworthy tenants. By combining our proprietary origination infrastructure, enhanced lease structures and disciplined investment criteria, we seek to provide investors with predictable current income and potential for appreciation while limiting downside risk.
 • Real Estate Credit: Our real estate credit investment strategy offers a diverse range of competitive real estate financing solutions and invests in both the public and private markets, seeking to generate equity-like returns while maintaining well-protected positions in the capital structure. Secured by real assets with predictable cash flows, our strategy aims to generate diversification, current income potential, and downside mitigation for investors. Our real estate credit investment strategy invests via securities, private debt (either via origination or acquisition of loans), and customized solutions.
 Our History
 Blue Owl's history is predicated on the key milestones of Owl Rock, Dyal Capital and Oak Street. Owl Rock was founded in 2016 by Doug Ostrover, Marc Lipschultz and Craig Packer to address the evolving need for credit solutions by middle-market companies. Dyal Capital was founded in 2010 by Michael Rees to fill the need for flexible capital solutions for private capital managers. Oak Street was founded in 2009 by Marc Zahr and established itself as a leader in private equity real estate, offering flexible and unique capital solutions to a variety of organizations.

 The combination of these businesses creates an infrastructure primed to continue servicing these markets. Blue Owl's robust and diversified offerings will continue to serve as a response to the following sector dynamics:
 • shifting allocations by retail and institutional investors.
 • rotation into alternative asset classes, given the search for yield and reliability of returns.
 • rising need for private debt, driven by sponsor demand.
 • evolving landscape of the private debt market.
 • de-leveraging of the global banking system.
 • increasing need for flexible capital solutions by private capital managers.
 Across our business, our presence in the market combined with our constant dialogue with financial sponsors, companies and our investors, has allowed us to identify attractive opportunities in adjacent subsectors over time.
 Since inception, these businesses have launched and acquired new strategies and products, exclusively in areas where we believe we can leverage our competitive advantage and expertise, and where we believe we have identified a critical mass of lending, capital and real estate solutions opportunities as well as heightened investor interest. We have focused on executing on key adjacencies that are natural extensions of existing core strategies in order to capitalize on the growing dislocations in the market and rising investor demand.
 Our Competitive Strengths
 • High proportion of Permanent Capital. We have a high-quality capital base heavily weighted toward Permanent Capital. For the year ended December 31, 2024, approximately 91% of our management fees were earned on AUM that we refer to as Permanent Capital. Substantially all of the AUM in our GP Strategic Capital products and a large portion of the AUM in our Credit and Real Assets products are structured as Permanent Capital vehicles. The high proportion of Permanent Capital in our AUM provides a stable base and allows for our AUM to grow more predictably without having reductions in our asset levels due to ordinary redemptions. Our Permanent Capital base also lends stability and flexibility to our products' portfolio companies, providing us the opportunity to grow alongside these companies and positioning us to be a preferred source of capital and the incumbent lender for follow-ons and other capital solutions to high-performing companies. As such, we are able to be a compelling partner for these firms as they seek capital to support their long-term vision and business development goals. The stability of our AUM base enables us to focus on generating attractive returns by investing in assets with a long-term focus across different periods in the market cycle.
 • Significant embedded growth in current AUM with built-in mechanisms for fee revenue increases. While we expect to continue our successful fundraising track record to supplement our existing capital base, our current AUM, predominately Permanent Capital in nature, already provides for significant embedded growth. Of our $251.1 billion AUM base, $159.8 billion represents our current FPAUM. As of December 31, 2024, we had approximately $22.6 billion in AUM not yet paying fees, providing the potential for over $300 million of annualized management fees once fully deployed. In addition, to the extent certain of our BDCs become publicly listed, the advisory fees from such BDCs could potentially increase, subject to any fee waivers or deferral arrangements agreed to by us and the applicable BDC.
 • Stable earnings model with attractive margin profile. The majority of our revenues is generated from our stable management fees. Our predictable revenue base translates to a stable earnings model through a disciplined, efficient cost structure, producing strong profit margins and mitigating the risk of volatility in the profit margins. This allows our business model to maintain a disciplined cost structure and stable operating margins.

 • Extensive, long-term relationships with a robust and vast network of alternative asset managers. We have extensive alternative asset manager relationships, which allow us to quickly and efficiently source potential investment opportunities for our products. We believe our deep relationships position us to receive "early looks" and "last looks" from alternative asset managers, which in turn, allow us to be highly selective in deciding which investments to pursue. We believe the depth and breadth of our relationships are predicated on several, differentiating features of our business and that alternative asset managers value our team's experience and deep focus both within products and across a broad spectrum of capital solutions. Our expansive set of product offerings allows us to provide flexible and creative solutions, and in tandem with our sizeable Permanent Capital base, enables us to provide access to scaled, sizeable commitments. Partner Managers in our GP minority stakes products also value our Business Services Platform, which provides strategic value-added services to our Partner Managers in key areas: capital strategy, private wealth, human capital, operations, corporate strategy and M&A, environmental, social and governance ("ESG") advisory, citizenship and strategic initiatives, data science, procurement and artificial intelligence. We expect our differentiated approach and broad spectrum of capital solution products will continue to strengthen our relationships, and we intend to further expand our network to fortify our position as a preferred partner for alternative asset managers and their products' portfolio companies.
 • Increasing benefits of scale. We believe our robust, scaled infrastructure provides us with a competitive advantage which enables us to provide attractive solutions as a trusted partner and therefore continue to capture market share. Many institutional investors are concentrating their relationships in an effort to partner with dependable, scaled firms with proven track records that they have a high level of comfort with. Our scaled business enables us to remain a partner of choice not only for borrowers, GPs and tenants, but also for investors. We believe we will not only maintain, but continue to expand, our share of the market as a result of the high level of confidence investors have in our scaled capital solutions business. Our ability to provide diversification and niche access points will continue to attract investor interest as they seek diversification and continue to value lower-correlation portfolio allocations.
 There are many managers who compete with our Credit platform. However, we believe our focus on direct lending serves as a competitive advantage. Our differentiated approach and scaled platform allow us to capitalize on opportunities across the sizing spectrum—from bespoke financing solutions to traditional upper-middle-market loans and, increasingly, loans of $1.0 billion or more. Our Credit platform's scale has demonstrated the ability to originate larger deals, while also providing diversification in our portfolios. We believe our scale enables us to broaden our deal funnel and provides us access to more investment opportunities than many other direct lenders. We have significant available capital that allows us to provide scaled financing solutions, commit to full capital structures and support the capital needs of borrowers. We believe being a total solutions provider also grants us a broader view of market opportunities, which allows us to continue operating as a market leader.
 Within GP Strategic Capital, we have also established ourselves as a market leader, with a long track record, the greatest amount of aggregate capital raised and the largest number of publicly announced deals. Our most recently completed flagship fundraise, Blue Owl GP Stakes V, was more than twice as large as funds raised by our closest peers. Our large base of stable capital not only enables participation in investments across the sizing spectrum, but also creates a competitive advantage by positioning us as a highly qualified buyer for minority stakes in attractive GPs. We believe that we also gain access to proprietary deal flow as a result of the market's confidence in our ability to execute on investments expeditiously. We believe our strong reputation in the market combined with our scale will continue to provide us with unique access to the most attractive sectors of the alternative asset management universe.
 Within Real Assets, we have a targeted origination strategy that is enhanced by our strong network and allows us to be both competitive and differentiated from other net lease peers. We proactively build and maintain strong relationships with large investment grade-rated and creditworthy companies whose businesses offer essential goods or services and which we believe are generally resistant to e-commerce and economic downside risks. Further we look to provide flexible structuring that is mutually beneficial with long lease durations, and in many cases, favorable pricing. We have leveraged our corporate partnerships to both source unique investment opportunities unavailable to other market participants and negotiate attractive lease terms. We believe our strong origination capabilities, conservative underwriting criteria and strong existing tenant relationships will allow our Real Assets products to purchase properties in the future at attractive terms and pricing, providing significant long-term opportunities for growth and scale.

 • Diverse, global and growing high-quality investor base. Our global investor base is composed of long-standing institutional relationships, as well as a quickly growing retail investor base. Our institutional clients include large domestic and international public and private pension funds, endowments, foundations, family offices, sovereign wealth funds, asset managers and insurance companies. Our retail clients include prominent wealth management firms, private banks, and high net worth investors. As we continue to grow, we expect to retain our existing clients through our breadth of offerings. As of December 31, 2024, approximately 38% of our institutional investors, excluding insurance, were invested in more than one product, with many increasing their commitment to their initial strategy and committing additional capital across our other strategies. We believe our diligent management of investors' capital, combined with our strong performance and increasingly diversified product offerings has helped retain and attract investors which has furthered our growth in FPAUM and facilitated further expansion of our strategies. We also believe the global nature of our investor base enables significant cross-selling opportunities between our products. We are committed to providing our clients with a superior level of service. We believe our client-focused nature, rooted in our culture of transparency, will help us continue to retain and attract high-quality investors to our business.
 • Industry-leading management team with proven track record. We are led by a team of seasoned executives with significant and diverse experience at the world's leading financial institutions. Our best-in-class management team has considerable expertise across their respective product strategies, with a long track record of successful investing experience across multiple businesses and credit cycles. Members of our senior management have decades of experience and a strong track record in building successful businesses from the ground up and generating superior returns across market cycles. Additionally, our senior management team has developed meaningful, long-term relationships and partnerships with alternative asset managers as well as with our investors.
 • Alignment of interests with stakeholders. We consider the alignment of interests of our executive management team and other professionals with those of the investors in our products to be core to our business. AUM (inclusive of accrued carried interest) attributable to our executives and other employees as of December 31, 2024 totaled approximately $4.1 billion (including $2.2 billion related to accrued carried interest), which aligns their interests with our clients' interests by motivating the continued high performance and retention of our dedicated team of professionals.
 Our Growth Strategy
 We aim to continue applying our core principles and values that have guided us since inception in order to expand our business through the following strategies:
 • Organically grow our core business. We expect to continue to grow AUM in our existing strategies, and intend to launch additional or successor Permanent Capital vehicles and long-dated products in the future. We will benefit from significant embedded growth in our current AUM that is not yet paying fees that can be realized as we continue to deploy and lever our existing capital base. We believe these key attributes, in conjunction with our ability to raise successor products in existing strategies, will continue to play a key role in our growth profile. We also expect to enhance our AUM growth by expanding our current investor relationships and continuing to attract new investors.
 • Expand our product offering. We plan to grow our business by expanding our product offerings. We intend to take a diligent and deliberate approach to expansion, by adding products that are complementary, adjacent or additive to our current strategies. To date, our measured approach to growth through the addition of adjacent strategies has allowed us to continue delivering high performance to our dedicated investor base. We expect that as we continue to grow our existing strategies, there will be additional adjacencies that provide natural expansion opportunities. We believe through the disciplined expansion of our business, we can continue to develop our breadth of offerings and further our position as a leading solutions provider. As we grow, we expect to attract new investors as well as leverage our existing investor base, as we have done with previous product launches.

 • Leverage complementary global distribution networks. We are well positioned to continue to penetrate the growing global market. The success of our Credit and Real Assets products to date has been primarily focused within the United States, while our GP Strategic Capital products have a more global investor base. We intend to continue fundraising both domestically and internationally. The favorable industry tailwinds are global in nature and we believe that there is additional market opportunity across the global landscape. As of December 31, 2024, we raised 79% of our capital in the United States and Canada. We believe our strong network and track record of global fundraising has primed us to further extend our fundraising efforts across products and into additional international markets, as institutional investors across the globe are facing the same pressures and seeking the same positive attributes of the sector that have attracted domestic investors thus far. We also believe we have a significant opportunity to continue to leverage our global fundraising capabilities and investor relationships to cross-sell our Credit, GP Strategic Capital and Real Assets products, as well as utilize our existing domestic retail channel to cross-sell our products while increasing our global capabilities. The global market represents a large, and relatively untapped opportunity for many of our products that we believe will facilitate our pursuit of international expansion in the coming years, and position us to enter into less-developed markets where we can be a significant first-mover and play a key role in defining the markets.
 • Enhance our distribution channels. As investors continue to increase their alternatives allocation in the search for yield, we believe we have the opportunity to continue diversifying our client base by attracting new investors across different channels. We intend to leverage our strong growth within and across our strategies as a means to add new investors to our growing family of products. We have already begun executing on this strategy, with a notable influx of wealth management platforms and public and private pension fund investors in recent years. These additions helped further diversify our investor base which also includes, but is not limited to, insurance, family offices, endowments and foundations. In addition, we have continued to grow our relationships in the consultant community. We intend to be the premier Credit, GP minority stakes and triple net lease real estate investing business for investors across the institutional and retail distribution channels.
 • Deepen and expand strong strategic relationships with key institutional investors. We have established invaluable relationships with strategic partners, consultants and large institutional investors who provide us with key market insights, operational advice and facilitate relationship introductions. We pride ourselves on continuing to foster these relationships as they are fundamental to our business and reflect the strong alignment of interests that is highly valued by our partners. As of December 31, 2024, 16 institutional investors, excluding insurance, have committed at least $1.0 billion across our strategies, 32 have committed at least $500 million, and 71 have committed at least $250 million. Our strategic partnerships allow us to craft customized solutions tailored to the objectives of our clients, while reflecting the breadth of our capabilities across our strategies. We also have important relationships with sponsors, wealth management firms, banks, corporate advisory firms, industry consultants and other market participants that we believe are of significant value. As we continue to grow, both organically and through product and geographic expansion, we will continue to pursue the addition of incremental key strategic partners.
 • Opportunistically pursue accretive acquisitions. In addition to our various avenues of organic growth, we intend to diligently evaluate acquisition opportunities that we believe would be value-enhancing to our current offerings. These could include acquisitions that would expand the breadth of our product offerings, further develop our investor base, or facilitate our plans for global expansion. We believe that as the market continues to evolve, there will be numerous opportunities for us to consider, of which we intend to only pursue the most accretive acquisitions.
 Competition
 The investment management industry is intensely competitive, and we expect it to remain so. We compete globally and on a regional, industry and asset basis. We face competition both in the pursuit of investors for our products and investment opportunities. Generally, our competition varies across product lines, geographies and financial markets. We compete for investors based on a variety of factors, including investment performance, investor perception of investment managers' drive, focus and alignment of interest, quality of service provided to and duration of relationship with investors, breadth of our product offering, business reputation and the level of fees and expenses charged for services. We compete for investment opportunities at our products based on a variety of factors, including breadth of market coverage and relationships, access to capital, transaction execution skills, the range of products and services offered, innovation and price, and we expect that competition will continue to increase. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Investment Management—The investment management business is intensely competitive."

 Competition is also intense for the attraction and retention of qualified employees. Our ability to continue to compete effectively will depend upon our ability to attract new employees and retain and motivate our existing employees. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Personnel—Our future growth depends on our ability to attract, retain and develop human capital in a highly competitive talent market."
 Our competition as an asset manager and financing source to primarily upper-middle-market companies consists primarily of other asset managers who focus principally on credit funds, including BDCs, and other credit products. We also compete with other public and private funds, commercial and investment banks, commercial finance companies and, to the extent they provide an alternative form of financing, private equity and hedge funds. Many of our competitors are substantially larger and may have more financial, technical, and marketing resources than we do. Many of these competitors have similar investment objectives to us, which may create additional competition for investment opportunities. Some of these competitors may also have a lower cost of capital and access to funding sources that are not available to us, which may create competitive disadvantages for us with respect to investment opportunities. In addition, some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments, which could allow them to consider a wider variety of investments and establish more relationships than us. Further, many of our competitors are not subject to the regulatory restrictions that the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), imposes on our BDCs, or to the distribution and other requirements our BDCs must satisfy to qualify for regulated investment company ("RIC") tax treatment. Lastly, institutional and individual investors are allocating increasing amounts of capital to alternative investment strategies. Several large institutional investors have announced a desire to consolidate their investments in a more limited number of managers. We expect that this will cause competition in our industry to intensify and could lead to a reduction in the size and duration of pricing inefficiencies that many of our products seek to exploit.
 Our GP Strategic Capital products currently have limited direct competition from organizations dedicated to acquiring stakes in private capital managers. A limited number of asset managers have been acquiring minority stakes in certain private capital managers. Such institutions may compete with us for similar investments in the future. We believe, however, that this limited number of competitors is likely to persist, as conflicts of interest and regulatory restrictions, as well as the limited quantum of capital raised for this strategy, combine to make purchasing minority stakes in private capital managers challenging for financial institutions and private equity firms.
 With respect to our GP debt financing strategy, many banks provide revolving lines of credit to private equity managers, but these credit lines are typically short duration, amortize and require blanket personal guarantees. A small number of firms provide structured or preferred equity to private capital managers, but these investments are also structurally very different from our products' long-term loans. We believe that this limited competition is likely to persist, as conflicts of interest, regulatory restrictions, capital constraints and other considerations make lending to private capital managers challenging for financial institutions, insurance companies and other private market firms.
 Our current GP Strategic Capital strategies compete with, among others, a number of private equity funds, specialized funds, hedge funds, corporate buyers, traditional asset managers, real estate companies, commercial banks, investment banks, other investment managers and other financial institutions, including the owners of certain of our stockholders, as well as domestic and international pension funds and sovereign wealth funds, and we expect that competition will continue to increase. We compete globally and on a regional, industry and asset basis.
 We have remained the only net lease private equity manager dedicated to transacting primarily with investment grade rated and other creditworthy counterparties. The more stable and predictable nature of the net lease sector has brought additional competition into the space in recent years. Historically, such competition has primarily come from net lease REITs (publicly traded and non-traded), other private equity real estate funds, and high net worth buyers.
 Competitors in the publicly traded net lease sector generally exhibit less stringent criteria than we do with respect to pricing and lease durations, and their portfolios are comprised substantially of non-investment grade credits, shorter average lease terms, and meaningful near-term lease rollover. Additionally, many net lease peers focus on acquiring retail properties with an average deal size of less than $10 million, whereas our Real Assets products' transactions are frequently $100 million and greater in size.

 Competition from other private equity funds has grown, as many have either shifted their current real estate focus to building net lease teams or acquiring existing net lease strategies. Despite this increased activity, competition with our Real Assets products on the deal level has remained relatively low, as those strategies concentrate their efforts in the non-investment grade space, prefer to develop properties themselves, and to deploy capital in sectors that are outside of our traditional focus of industrial assets, mission critical office properties and essential retail. As the monetization of real estate through sale-leasebacks continues to gain traction as a capital allocation tool for companies, we expect the net lease sector to grow even larger, and that will continue to attract more competition into the space.
 Human Capital
 As of December 31, 2024, we had over 1,100 full-time employees globally.
 Culture
 As an alternative asset manager, we believe that our people are key to the success of our business. We embrace four core values we view as integral to creating a culture in which our people can thrive personally and professionally, including mutual respect, excellence, constructive dialogue and a "one team" mindset.
 • Mutual respect. We hold ourselves to the highest standard of professional conduct. We acknowledge everyone's unique contributions and in challenging situations, listen to understand.
 • Excellence. We strive to operate always at the highest standard and deliver the best possible outcomes for our stakeholders. We are constantly analyzing our performance to learn from our successes and our mistakes.
 • Constructive dialogue. We invite alternative points of view. As a firm, we encourage thoughtful, intentional and honest opinions.
 •"One Team." We pride ourselves in our strong alignment with all our stakeholders, including investors, borrowers, Partner Managers, employees and others. We act in the highest interest of the Blue Owl ecosystem and work across functions for greater outcomes to deliver value for all of these groups.
 We rely significantly on our talented team, leveraging a wide variety of investment, management, business and other skills and expertise, to create value for stockholders and investors in our products. We aim to build a team that is driven and embraces an inclusive culture in which our team members are engaged and work collaboratively across the organization.
 Compensation and Benefits
 We design our compensation programs, including fixed and variable performance-based compensation, to motivate and retain employees and align their interests with those of our stockholders. In particular, annual compensation for our executives and other senior employees involves a combination of cash and deferred equity awards in the form of Incentive Units and RSUs (as defined in Note 1 to the Financial Statements). The proportion of compensation that is deferred and at risk of forfeiture generally increases as an employee's level of compensation rises. Employees at higher total compensation levels are generally targeted to receive a greater percentage of their total compensation payable in Incentive Units and RSUs. To further align their interests with those of investors in our products, our employees have the opportunity to make investments in or alongside our products. We also provide our employees with job-specific training and development opportunities, robust health and other wellness offerings, as well as a variety of quality-of-life benefits, including family planning resources. We believe our approach to compensation and benefits is consistent with companies in the alternative asset management industry and helps enable us to attract and retain best-in-class talent in our industry. Our senior management periodically reviews the effectiveness and competitiveness of our compensation program.
 Corporate Sustainability
 Blue Owl's corporate sustainability efforts seek to enable positive outcomes for our most critical stakeholders, including our investors, our public stockholders, our employees and the communities in which we operate. Almost four years after our listing as a public company, we have made meaningful strides developing a strategic approach to advancing our corporate sustainability objectives across three priority areas of focus: Responsible Investing, diversity, equity and inclusion ("DEI") and Citizenship.

 We believe that Blue Owl's governance of corporate sustainability reflects strong leadership and oversight at the senior management and Board of Directors ("Board") levels and our commitment to our priority areas. Our Board receives at least annual updates on our strategy and initiatives and the Audit Committee receives management presentations on responsible investing and ESG-related matters. Executive sponsors oversee our Corporate Sustainability Council, which is chaired by our Chief Operating Officer and comprised of dedicated subject-matter leaders for each of the three areas of focus: Responsible Investing/ESG, DEI and Citizenship. To integrate responsible investing practices firmwide, we have a Responsible Investing Working Group (the "RI WG"), a cross-functional group across investment platforms, strategies and relevant business units. The RI WG members are senior representatives of their respective teams and are responsible for coordinating Responsible Investing-related efforts within their business units, as well as providing insights as it relates to their professional roles. The RI WG is chaired by our Chief Operating Officer and the Head of Responsible Investing. The RI WG activities are managed by the Responsible Investing & ESG team.
 Investing Responsibly
 We recognize the importance of business relevant ESG issues and opportunities and are committed to the consideration of these factors in relation to our business operations and investment activities to manage risk and identify opportunities. The firm adopted an ESG policy, which applies to all asset classes, industries and countries in which Blue Owl does business and the products it manages.
 We believe that incorporating business relevant ESG factors into our corporate and investment activities has the potential to meaningfully contribute to the value of Blue Owl and the companies in which we invest. We strive to continuously strengthen our ability to mitigate, manage and monitor relevant ESG risks and opportunities within our investment portfolios. When considering potential investments on behalf of the products that we manage, we seek to address the relevant ESG considerations, risks and potential rewards related to our prospective investments. Further, we have processes designed to ensure compliance with applicable regulatory disclosure requirements, including ESG-related disclosure obligations.
 We believe it is important to consider the multiple ways that climate risk may affect us as an asset manager. Blue Owl has designed an approach to identify, assess and prioritize potential climate-related risks across its operations and investment activity. We have considered recommendations from the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures in the design and implementation of our climate risk management program, including topics related to governance, strategy, risk management and metrics.
 Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
 Blue Owl is committed to fostering and preserving a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion. We seek to create an inclusive, performance-based environment that is supportive of people from all backgrounds. We have formalized our approach by adopting a DEI policy.
 Blue Owl's DEI strategy centers on the following key concepts and core values:
 • Embracing our differences. We embrace and encourage our differences that make us unique. We believe that a team comprised of individuals with diverse backgrounds, experiences, perspectives and insights is critical to the long-term success of our firm.
 • Strategic priorities. Continuing to develop as a diverse, equitable and inclusive firm is a strategic priority for Blue Owl that we believe can further enhance our work environment and overall business. Our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion is relevant to interactions with our employees, investors, products' portfolio companies and third-party service providers.
 • Leadership. While our ongoing efforts are championed by the Blue Owl founders and executed upon by senior leaders across all business areas of the firm, we aim to support DEI through the firm's entire employee population. Continuing to develop a diverse, equitable and inclusive firm is a strategic priority. Our Chief Human Resources Officer is responsible for overseeing our DEI program.

 To further foster an inclusive culture, we seek to continue to establish relevant and appropriate Employee Resource Groups, which are open to all employees and aim to build community through shared identities, helping us further our goal of promoting a sense of inclusion and belonging. We also work with select partners to provide our employees with access to resources, networks and opportunities for professional development, as well as utilizing the organizations' job boards to recruit candidates. Additionally, our summer internship program for college students includes partnerships with organizations that represent students from backgrounds that are often underrepresented in the finance industry. This program includes training, professional development sessions, networking opportunities and mentorship. We also offer career development, skill building and mentorship opportunities for our employees. Finally, our suite of benefits includes primary and secondary parental leave, family planning benefits and stipend and flexible work schedules.
 Citizenship
 We take our role as a corporate citizen seriously and aim to contribute to meaningful causes to support the communities in which we operate and reside. We believe there is an opportunity to "make community our culture" by building a robust citizenship program that is integrated, community-centered and employee-enriched, including:
 • Blue Owl Leads Together, our global employee volunteerism and giving program, which allows employees to engage with each other and with the communities in which we live and work;
 • Blue Owl Gives, which advances our firm's philanthropic mission—unlocking opportunity by powering access to college, to careers and to capital—through strategic non-profit partnerships; and
 • Blue Owl Celebrates, which honors various heritage and affinity months throughout the year by spotlighting important nonprofit causes, profiling opportunities for learning and action and hosting a variety of guest speakers.
 Organizational Structure
 The Registrant is a publicly traded holding company, and its primary assets are ownership interests in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships, which are held indirectly through Blue Owl GP. We conduct our business through the Blue Owl Operating Group. See Note 1 to our Financial Statements for a description of the various share and unit classes outstanding at the Registrant and Blue Owl Operating Partnership levels.

 The diagram below depicts a simplified version of our organizational structure as of December 31, 2024. Ownership percentages are based on shares and units that are fully participating in dividends and distributions as of December 31, 2024.

 Economic and voting percentages above do not include the potential dilutive impact of RSUs or unvested Incentive Units, as these interests do not participate in dividends and distributions (other than to the extent of certain tax distributions on unvested Incentive Units). See Note 1 to our Financial Statements for additional information on these interests.
 On February 20, 2025, our Board adopted resolutions authorizing the adoption of an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in connection with an internal reorganization that is expected to occur on or about April 1, 2025, pursuant to which, among other things, Blue Owl Carry will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Blue Owl Holdings (the "Internal Reorganization").

 Regulatory and Compliance Matters
 Our business, along with the broader financial services industry, is subject to extensive regulation and periodic examinations by governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations or exchanges in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. These regulations cover a wide range of areas, including antitrust laws, anti-money laundering laws, anti-bribery laws related to foreign officials, tax laws and data privacy laws concerning client and other information. Additionally, some of our products invest in businesses that operate within highly regulated industries.
 Each of the regulatory bodies with jurisdiction over us has regulatory powers dealing with many aspects of financial services, including the authority to grant, and in specific circumstances to cancel, permissions to carry on particular activities. Any failure to comply with these rules and regulations could limit our ability to carry on particular activities or expose us to liability and/or reputational damage. Additional legislation, increasing global regulatory oversight of fundraising activities, changes in rules promulgated by self-regulatory organizations or exchanges or changes in the laws or rules, or interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and rules, either in the United States or elsewhere, may directly affect our mode of operation and profitability. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Operations" and "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Legal and Regulatory Environment."
 Rigorous legal and compliance analysis of our business and investments made by our products is important to our culture. We strive to maintain a culture of compliance through the use of policies and procedures such as oversight compliance, codes of ethics, compliance systems, communication of compliance guidance and employee education and training. All employees must annually certify that they have received copies of and agree to comply with our compliance manual, including our Code of Ethics and Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy. Our Chief Compliance Officer supervises our compliance group, which is responsible for monitoring all regulatory and compliance matters that affect our activities and manages our compliance policies and procedures. Our compliance policies and procedures address a variety of regulatory and compliance risks such as the handling of material non-public information, personal securities trading, valuation of investments, document retention, potential conflicts of interest and the allocation of investment opportunities.
 Many jurisdictions in which we operate have laws and regulations relating to data privacy, cybersecurity and the protection of personal information. Any failure to comply with such laws or regulations could result in substantial fines, penalties and/or sanctions, litigation, as well as reputational harm. As these laws and regulations or the enforcement of the same become more stringent, or if new laws or regulations are enacted, our financial performance or plans for growth may be adversely impacted.
 SEC Regulations
 We provide investment advisory services through several entities that are registered as investment advisers with the SEC pursuant to the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "Advisers Act"). Our BDCs elect to be regulated under the Investment Company Act and the Exchange Act and, in certain cases, the Securities Act. As compared to other, more disclosure-oriented U.S. federal securities laws, the Advisers Act and the Investment Company Act, together with the SEC's regulations and interpretations thereunder, are highly restrictive regulatory statutes. The SEC is authorized to institute proceedings and impose sanctions for violations of the Advisers Act and the Investment Company Act, ranging from fines and censures to termination of an adviser's registration.
 Under the Advisers Act, an investment adviser (whether or not registered under the Advisers Act) has fiduciary duties to its clients. The SEC has interpreted these duties to impose standards, requirements and limitations on, among other things, trading for proprietary, personal and client accounts; allocations of investment opportunities among clients; and conflicts of interest.
 The Advisers Act also imposes specific restrictions on an investment adviser's ability to engage in principal and agency cross transactions. Our registered investment advisers are subject to many additional requirements that cover, among other things, disclosure of information about our business to clients; maintenance of written policies and procedures; maintenance of extensive books and records; restrictions on the types of fees we may charge, including performance revenues or carried interest; maintaining an effective compliance program; custody of client assets; client privacy; investment adviser marketing; and proxy voting. The SEC has authority to inspect any registered investment adviser and typically inspects a registered investment adviser periodically to determine whether the adviser (i) is conducting its activities in compliance with applicable laws and disclosures made to clients and (ii) has reasonably designed policies and procedures to ensure compliance.

 A significant portion of our revenues are derived from our advisory services to our BDCs. The Investment Company Act imposes significant requirements and limitations on BDCs, including with respect to their capital structure, investments and transactions. While we exercise broad discretion over the day-to-day management of our BDCs, each of our BDCs is also subject to oversight and management by a board of directors, a majority of whom are not "interested persons" as defined under the Investment Company Act. The responsibilities of each board include, among other things, approving our advisory contracts with our BDCs, approving certain service providers and monitoring transactions involving affiliates, and approving certain co-investment transactions. Additionally, each quarter, the applicable investment adviser, as the valuation designee, provides the audit committee of each of our BDCs with a summary or description of material fair value matters that occurred in the prior quarter and on an annual basis, as well as a written assessment of the adequacy and effectiveness of its fair value process. The audit committee of each of our BDCs oversees the valuation designee and reports to the respective BDC's board of directors on any valuation matters requiring such board's attention. The advisory contracts with each of our BDCs may be terminated by the stockholders or directors of such BDC on not more than 60 days' notice, and are subject to annual renewal by each respective BDC's board of directors after an initial two-year term.
 Generally, affiliates of our BDCs are prohibited under the Investment Company Act from knowingly participating in certain transactions with their affiliated BDCs without prior approval of the BDC's board of directors who are not interested persons and, in some cases, prior approval by the SEC. The SEC has interpreted the prohibition on transactions with affiliates to prohibit "joint transactions" among entities that share a common investment adviser.
 Certain of our products are permitted to co-invest with other products managed by us as a result of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, so long as such transactions are negotiated in a manner consistent with our BDCs' investment objectives, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors, provided that certain directors of any of our participating BDCs make certain determinations. Our investment allocation policy incorporates the conditions of the exemptive relief. As a result of the exemptive relief, there could be significant overlap in the investment portfolios of our BDCs and other of our products that could avail themselves of the exemptive relief. Additionally, we have been granted exemptive relief to permit certain of our BDCs to offer multiple classes of shares of common stock and to impose asset-based distribution fees and early withdrawal fees.
 The SEC also has increased emphasis on investment adviser and private fund regulation in recent years and has proposed and enacted significant rules that impact investment advisers and their management of private investment funds and the SEC may propose additional changes in the future. Such current and future rule making is expected to materially impact private funds and private fund advisers and their operations, including increasing compliance burdens and regulatory costs, and heightened risk of regulatory enforcement action such as public sanctions, restrictions on activities, fines and reputational damage.
 Other Regulators; Self-Regulatory Organizations
 There are a number of other regulatory bodies that have or could potentially have jurisdiction to regulate our business activities, including non-U.S. regulators with jurisdiction over our non-U.S. affiliates. In particular, Blue Owl Capital UK Limited ("Blue Owl UK") is authorized and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") pursuant to the UK Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 ("FSMA"). The FSMA, along with the FCA's Handbook of rules and guidance, constitute the primary regulatory framework for governing Blue Owl UK's business activities in the United Kingdom (the "UK"). In this context, Blue Owl UK provides services to its U.S. affiliates including, inter alia, the provision of investment advice, arranging transactions to be executed by or on behalf of Blue Owl funds, and certain other related services. Blue Owl Capital Japan is an entity operating in Japan whose employees assist in the marketing and distribution of Blue Owl Funds in Japan. Blue Owl Japan is registered with and regulated by the Kanto Local Finance Bureau and the Japan Financial Services Agency as a Securities Sales Intermediary under the sponsorship of a local distribution partner. Blue Owl Capital (Dubai) Limited is an entity organized in the Dubai International Financial Centre ("DIFC") whose employees assist in the marketing and distribution of Blue Owl Funds in the DIFC. Blue Owl Dubai is authorized by the Dubai Financial Services Authority as a Prudential Category 4 firm. Blue Owl Capital HK Limited ("Blue Owl HK") is an entity organized and operating in Hong Kong whose employees assist in the marketing and distribution of Blue Owl Funds in Hong Kong. Blue Owl HK is regulated and licensed by the Securities & Futures Commission of Hong Kong.

 Blue Owl Securities is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC, maintains registrations in many states and is a member of FINRA and the SIPC. As a broker-dealer, Blue Owl Securities is subject to regulation and oversight by the SEC and state securities regulators. In addition, FINRA, a self-regulatory organization that is subject to oversight by the SEC, promulgates and enforces rules governing the conduct of, and examines the activities of, its member firms. Due to the limited authority granted to Blue Owl Securities in its capacity as a broker-dealer, it is not required to comply with certain regulations covering trade practices among broker-dealers and the use and safekeeping of customers' funds and securities. As a registered broker-dealer and member of a self-regulatory organization, Blue Owl Securities is, however, subject to various other rules and regulations, including, but not limited to, Rule 15c3-1 of the Exchange Act, which specifies the minimum level of net capital a broker-dealer must maintain and also requires that a significant part of a broker-dealer's assets be kept in relatively liquid form.

 Item 1A. Risk Factors.
 RISK FACTOR SUMMARY
 The following is a summary of the risks and uncertainties that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and should be read in conjunction with the complete discussion of risk factors set forth in "Item 1A. Risk Factors." Some of the factors that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows include, but are not limited to, the following:
 Macroeconomic Factors
 • Difficult market and geopolitical conditions may reduce the value or hamper the performance of the investments made by our products or impair the ability of our products to raise or deploy capital.
 • Fluctuations in interest rates and future increases in inflation could have a material adverse effect on our business and that of our products' portfolio companies and investments.
 Investment Management
 • Management fees and other fees comprise the majority of our revenues and a reduction in such fees could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and the level of cash available for distributions to our stockholders.
 • Our growth depends in large part on our ability to raise new and successor products. If we were unable to raise such products, the growth of our FPAUM and management fees, and ability to deploy capital into investments, earning the potential for performance income, would slow or decrease.
 • Intense competition among alternative asset managers may make fundraising and the deployment of capital more difficult, thereby limiting our ability to grow or maintain our FPAUM. Such competition may be amplified by changes in product investor allocations away from alternative asset managers.
 Products
 • The historical returns attributable to our products should not be considered as indicative of the future results of our products or of our future results or of any returns expected on an investment in our Class A Shares.
 • Valuation methodologies for certain assets of our products can be open to subjectivity, which may affect the management fees or performance income that our business receives.
 • The use of leverage by our products may materially increase the returns of such products but may also result in significant losses or a total loss of capital.
 • We are vulnerable to an increased number of investors seeking to participate in share redemption programs or tender offers of our non-traded products.
 • The products and investment strategies we currently pursue may expose us to specific market, tax, regulatory and other risks.
 Operations
 • The anticipated benefits of recent or future acquisitions may not be realized or may take longer than expected to realize.
 • Rapid growth of our business may be difficult to sustain and may place significant demands on our administrative, operational and financial resources.
 • Our use of leverage to finance our business or that of our products may expose us to substantial risks. Any security interests or negative covenants required by a credit facility we enter into may limit our ability to create liens on assets to secure additional debt.
 • Cybersecurity risks and data security incidents could adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information and confidential information in our possession and damage to our business relationships.

 Personnel
 • We depend on our senior management team, senior investment professionals and other key personnel to provide their services to us, our investment advisers and our products.
 • Employee misconduct could harm us by impairing our ability to attract and retain product investors and subjecting us to significant legal liability, regulatory scrutiny and reputational harm.
 • Our future growth depends on our ability to attract, retain and develop human capital in a highly competitive talent market.
 Conflicts of Interest
 • Conflicts of interest may arise in our allocation of capital and co-investment opportunities, fees and expenses amongst products or in circumstances where our products hold investments at different levels of the capital structure.
 • Our entitlement and that of certain Principals and employees to receive performance revenues from certain of our products may create an incentive for us to make decisions, including more speculative investments and determinations on behalf of our products, than would be the case in the absence of such performance income.
 • Conflicts of interest may arise when one or more products make an investment in a company with which other products or platforms have a business relationship.
 Legal and Regulatory Environment
 • Our business is subject to extensive domestic and foreign regulations that may subject us to significant costs and compliance requirements, and there can be no assurance that we will satisfactorily comply with such regulations.
 • We, our products and our products' portfolio companies are subject to increasing scrutiny from certain investors, third party assessors, our stockholders and other stakeholders with respect to ESG-related topics.
 • Increased data protection regulation may result in increased complexities and risk in connection with the operation of our business and our products.
 Structure and Governance
 • Blue Owl has elected to be treated as, a "controlled company" within the meaning of the NYSE listing standards and, as a result, our stockholders may not have certain corporate governance protections that are available to stockholders of companies that are not controlled companies.
 • The multi-class structure of our common stock has the effect of concentrating voting power with the Principals, which limits an investor's ability to influence the outcome of important transactions, including a change in control.
 • Blue Owl Capital Inc. is a holding company and its only material source of cash is its indirect interest (held through Blue Owl GP) in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships, and it is accordingly dependent upon distributions made by its subsidiaries to pay taxes, make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement and pay dividends.
 • The market price and trading volume of our Class A Shares may be volatile, which could result in rapid and substantial losses for holders of our Class A Shares.
 • Reports published by analysts, including projections in those reports that differ from our actual results, could adversely affect the price and trading volume of our Class A Shares.

 RISK FACTORS
 Risks Related to Macroeconomic Factors
 Difficult market and geopolitical conditions may reduce the value or hamper the performance of the investments made by our products or impair the ability of our products to raise or deploy capital.
 Our business is affected by conditions and trends in the global financial markets and the global economic and political climate relating to, among other things, fluctuations in interest rates, the availability and cost of credit, future increases in inflation, economic uncertainty, changes in laws (including laws and regulations relating to our taxation, taxation of our clients and applicable to alternative asset managers), trade policies, commodity prices, tariffs, currency exchange rates and controls, political elections and administration transitions, and national and international political events (including wars and other forms of conflict, terrorist acts, and security operations), work stoppages, labor shortages and labor disputes, supply chain disruptions and catastrophic events such as fires, floods, earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes and global health pandemics. The United States has recently enacted and proposed to enact significant new tariffs. Additionally, the new Presidential administration has directed various federal agencies to further evaluate key aspects of U.S. trade policy and there has been ongoing discussion and commentary regarding potential significant changes to U.S. trade policies, treaties and tariffs. These factors are outside of our control and may affect the level and volatility of credit and securities prices and the liquidity and value of fund investments, and we and our products may not be able to or may choose not to manage our exposure to these conditions. Global financial markets have experienced heightened volatility in recent periods, including as a result of economic and political events in or affecting the world's major economies, such as the ongoing wars and conflicts between Russia and Ukraine, as well as political and social unrest in the Middle East and North Africa region. Concerns over economic recession, future increases in inflation, interest rate volatility, fluctuations in oil and gas prices resulting from global production and demand levels and geopolitical tension, have exacerbated market volatility. Additionally, social unrest and other political and security concerns may not abate, may worsen and could spread. Our business and financial performance could be adversely affected by political, economic or related developments both within and outside of regions experiencing ongoing conflicts because of interrelationships within the global financial markets.
 During periods of difficult market conditions or slowdowns, which may be across one or more industries, sectors or geographies, our products' portfolio companies may experience decreased revenues, financial losses, credit rating downgrades, difficulty in obtaining access to financing and increased funding costs. During such periods, those companies may also have difficulty in pursuing growth strategies, expanding their businesses and operations (including raising additional capital for those that are Partner Managers) and be unable to meet their debt service obligations or other expenses as they become due, including obligations and expenses payable to our products. Negative financial results in our products' portfolio companies may reduce the net asset value of our products, result in the impairment of assets and reduce the investment returns for our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and cash flow or ability to raise additional capital through new or successor products. In addition, such conditions would increase the risk of default with respect to credit-oriented or debt investments by our products or their portfolio companies, which could require our products, or their portfolio companies, to write down investments or foreclose upon the associated assets. Our products may be adversely affected by reduced opportunities to exit and realize value from their investments, by lower than expected returns on investments made prior to the deterioration of the credit markets and by our inability to find suitable investments for our products to effectively deploy capital, which could adversely affect our ability to raise new products and thus adversely impact our prospects for future growth.
 Fluctuations in interest rates and future increases in inflation may adversely affect the business, results of operations and financial condition of our products and their portfolio companies.
 Certain of our products and their portfolio companies operate in industries that have been impacted by inflation. Recent inflationary pressures have increased the costs of labor, energy and raw materials and have adversely affected consumer spending, economic growth and our products' portfolio companies' operations. If such portfolio companies are unable to pass any increases in the costs of their operations along to their customers, it could adversely affect their operating results. Such conditions would increase the risk of default on their obligations as a borrower. In addition, any projected future decreases in the operating results of our products' portfolio companies due to inflation could adversely impact the fair value of those investments. Any decreases in the fair value of our products' investments could result in future realized or unrealized losses.

 Fluctuations in interest rates could have a material adverse effect on our business and that of our products' portfolio companies.
 Fluctuations in interest rates could have a dampening effect on overall economic activity, the financial condition of our customers and the financial condition of the end customers who ultimately create demand for the capital we supply, all of which could negatively affect demand for our products' capital. The Federal Reserve decreased the federal funds rate twice in 2024. Although the Federal Reserve has signaled the potential for additional federal funds rate cuts, there remains uncertainty around the rate and timing of decreases, including as a result of the transition to the new U.S presidential administration. Uncertainty surrounding future Federal Reserve actions may have a material effect on our business making it particularly difficult for us to obtain financing at attractive rates, impacting our ability to execute on our growth strategies or future acquisitions.
 Our cash and cash equivalents could be adversely affected if the financial institutions in which we hold our cash and cash equivalents fail.
 We regularly maintain cash balances at third-party financial institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. If a depository institution fails to return these deposits or is otherwise subject to adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets, our access to invested cash or cash equivalents could be limited which adversely impact our results of operations or financial condition.
 Risks Related to Investment Management
 Management fees and other fees comprise a substantial majority of our revenues and a reduction in such fees could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and the level of cash available for distributions to our stockholders.
 BDCs
 The investment advisory and management agreements we have with each of our BDCs categorize the fees we receive as: (a) base management fees, which are paid quarterly and generally increase or decrease based on the average fair value of our BDC's gross assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) or average fair value of gross assets (excluding cash) plus undrawn commitments, (b) Part I Fees and (c) Part II Fees. We classify the Part I Fees as management fees because they are predictable and recurring in nature, not subject to contingent repayment and generally cash-settled each quarter. If any of our BDCs' gross assets or net investment income (before Part I Fees and Part II Fees) were to decline significantly for any reason, including, without limitation, due to fair value accounting requirements, the poor performance of its investments or the inability or increased cost to obtain or maintain borrowings for each of our BDCs, the amount of the fees we receive from our BDCs, including the base management fee and the Part I Fees, would also decline significantly, which could have an adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations. Our investment advisory and management agreements typically provide that the rates at which we earn advisory fees from certain of our BDCs increase after such BDCs are publicly listed (where before the listing the advisory fees typically are a reduced base management fee with a reduced or no Part I or II Fees). If these BDCs do not become publicly listed on anticipated timeframes or at all for any reason, including the NAV performance of our BDCs, Blue Owl will not benefit from this increase, and those BDCs may need to return their capital to investors, further reducing our management fees. We may also, from time to time, (a) waive or voluntarily defer any fees payable to us by our BDCs or any BDCs that we may manage after the date hereof and (b) restructure any existing fee waivers in place with our BDCs so that such of our BDCs will be obligated to pay fee amounts that are less than the full fee amounts owed to us pursuant to the terms of the applicable investment advisory and management agreements between us and such BDC, and the duration and extent of such waivers and deferrals in each of (a) and (b) may need to be significant to support continued fundraising. In addition to those arrangements, we have entered into and in the future may enter into expense supporting arrangements with certain of our BDCs under which we pay or reimburse certain expenses of our BDCs in order to support their target dividend payments.
 Our investment advisory and management agreements with our BDCs renew for successive annual periods subject to the approval of the applicable BDC's board of directors, including a separate vote of a majority of such BDC's independent directors, or by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of such BDC's outstanding voting securities. In addition, as required by the Investment Company Act, the investment advisory and management agreements with our BDCs may be terminated without penalty upon 60 days' written notice to the other party. Termination or non-renewal of any of these agreements would reduce our revenues significantly and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
 Private Funds
 For our other non-BDC Credit products, as well as GP Strategic Capital and certain Real Assets products, which we refer to as our private funds, we enter into investment advisory and management agreements whereby we generally receive base management fees from the inception of such fund through the liquidation of such fund or for certain of our GP Strategic Capital

 products for a set period. Non-BDC Credit products generally have a base management fee that is typically based on a percentage of gross asset value (which, if applicable, includes the portion of such investments purchased with leverage) although our alternative credit products generally have a management fee that is typically based on net invested capital, whereas our GP Strategic Capital products generally have a management fee that is initially a set percentage of capital committed by investors, and then, following a step down event (generally either the end of the investment period or, for certain funds, when the fund's commitments become substantially invested or drawn), is adjusted to a lower percentage of the fund's cost of unrealized investments, subject to impairment losses for certain funds. While GP Strategic Capital funds are not required to realize assets as of any date, if and to the extent a liquidity strategy event occurs prior to the management fee end date, this could cause a reduction in the amount of management fees we are otherwise entitled to receive. Further, any realization of assets will be within the control of certain of our employees who separately own an interest in a portion of the carried interest and who therefore may have an incentive to effect a realization earlier than one otherwise would expect without such carried interest ownership. With respect to our Real Assets products, our Permanent Capital vehicles have a management fee that is typically based on a percentage of net asset value, and our closed-end vehicles generally have a management fee that is initially a set percentage of capital committed by investors plus a set percentage of the fund's invested capital with respect to unrealized investments, and then, following a step down event (generally the end of the investment period or commencement of a successor fund), is adjusted to the same or in some cases a lower percentage of the fund's invested capital with respect to unrealized investments. Following a management fee step down event, the management fee we receive will be reduced when a fund realizes investments or in certain cases when there are permanent changes to the cost basis of unrealized investments.
 As our private funds generally have end dates for paying management fees, our revenues will decline in respect of such funds if we are unable to successfully raise successor funds to replace the management fee payments that terminate on the older funds or such successor funds do not generate fees at the same rate due to their size and/or fee structure. Further, to the extent we are unable to meet anticipated fundraising targets or if there are significant redemptions, our ability to collect management fees will be impaired. Additionally, given that such management fees are often based on gross asset value, acquisition costs or invested capital, either throughout the fund term or the portion of the term following the investment period, the management fee received in respect of such fund will be reduced when a fund realizes investments or if the value of an investment is impaired. During the investment period of many funds, the fund expects to actively recycle capital into new investments, which would have the impact of replacing investments that have been realized during the investment period, but there are many factors that may limit our ability to effectively recycle capital and realize the full fee potential of any particular fund, including availability of new investments suitable to a particular fund's strategy.
 Further, our right to receive management fees can be impaired by certain actions of investors in a private fund. Our private funds generally provide investors with the right to terminate such fund on both a for-cause basis and a no-fault basis, and may also provide for the right to remove us as manager of a fund for cause or on a no-fault basis and/or the right to create an early step down event with respect to a fund on a for cause basis. If investors in a private fund exercised their right to vote for an early termination, we would typically continue to receive management fee through the liquidation of such fund, but we could face pressure to liquidate investments earlier than we otherwise believe is appropriate to maximize the value of such investment. Certain funds also provide investors with the right to remove the general partner of such fund for cause or on a no-fault basis. Upon the removal of the general partner of a fund becoming effective, the investment advisory and management agreement in respect of such fund will cease to exist and our rights to payment of management fees will terminate. In some cases, investors may also have the right to redeem after certain periods of time or following regulatory or key person concerns, which would also reduce the base on which fees are charged. In other cases, after an initial lock up period, investors may issue redemption notices with respect to their interests; as such interests are redeemed, the fees will decrease unless we are able to find new investors to replace those redeeming.
 Notwithstanding the formulas for calculating management fees provided in the governing documents for our products, Blue Owl has provided (and expects to provide in the future) discounts or fee holidays to investors on such fees based on the size of their commitments to the fund (or Blue Owl products generally), the timing of their commitments to the fund or other factors that Blue Owl deems relevant. Certain investors are effectively given management fee discounts through specified interests and discounts with respect to carried interest or performance income through the grant of participation rights, fee rebates or revenue shares. Although such discounts will typically be awarded in circumstances where Blue Owl management believes there will ultimately be long-term benefits to Blue Owl, there can be no assurance that the ultimate benefit attained will be commensurate with the discount awarded, or as to how long it may take to recoup such value. Additionally, Blue Owl may not be able to maintain its current fee structure as a result of increased transparency required by SEC rules or industry pressure from product investors to reduce fees. More recently, institutional investors have been increasing pressure to reduce management and incentive fees charged by external managers, whether through direct fee discounts as described in this paragraph, deferrals, rebates or by other means. As a result, Blue Owl may need to provide discounts more broadly to investors or reduce fees to meet such industry pressures, which reduction in fees may be further exacerbated by discount expectations of existing investors.

 Other Fee Income
 We also receive fee income for providing services to certain portfolio companies of our products. Such services include arrangement, syndication, origination, structuring analysis, capital structure and business plan advice and other services. Certain types of transaction-related fees are required to be distributed to Blue Owl products and other products under the terms of our Co-investment Exemptive Order, as discussed below in "—Conflicts of Interest—Conflicts of interest may arise in our allocation of capital and co-investment opportunities," or are required to be distributed to investors in our products or offset against management fees that would otherwise be payable pursuant to the terms of the governing agreements of the relevant vehicles, while other types of related fees may be retained by us with no offset against management fees and contribute to our revenues and, ultimately, to our net income. We may decide not to seek those fees for any reason, including market conditions and expectations. Our ability to receive and retain those fees, and to continue to receive and retain those fees in the future, is dependent on the terms we negotiate with investors in our products, our ability to successfully negotiate for those fees with underlying portfolio companies, the permissibility of receiving and retaining those fees under the relevant legal and regulatory frameworks, and our business determination to negotiate for those fees. As a result, any change to the willingness of portfolio companies to bear those fees, the terms of our products that permit us to receive and retain those fees, the legal and regulatory framework in which we operate or our willingness to negotiate for those fees with portfolio companies of our products, could result in a decrease to our revenues and net income, and ultimately decrease the value of our common stock and our dividends to our stockholders. In addition, the fees generated are typically dependent on transaction frequency and volume, and a slowdown in the pace or size of investments by our products could adversely affect the amount of fees generated.
 Our growth depends in large part on our ability to raise new and successor products. If we were unable to raise such products, the growth of our FPAUM and management fees, and ability to deploy capital into investments, would slow or decrease.
 A significant portion of our revenue from our products in any given period is dependent on the size of our FPAUM in such period and fee rates charged on the FPAUM. We may not be successful in procuring investment returns and prioritizing services that will allow us to maintain our current fee structure, to maintain or grow our FPAUM, or to generate performance income. A decline in the size or pace of growth of FPAUM or applicable fee rates will reduce our revenues. A decline in the size or pace of growth of FPAUM or applicable fee rates may result from a range of factors, including:
 • Volatile economic and market conditions, which could cause product investors to delay making new commitments to alternative investment funds or limit the ability of our existing products to deploy capital;
 • Intense competition among alternative asset managers may make fundraising and the deployment of capital more difficult, thereby limiting our ability to grow or maintain our FPAUM. Competition may be amplified by changes in product investors allocating increased amounts of capital away from alternative asset managers; and
 • Poor performance of one or more of our products, either relative to market benchmarks or in absolute terms (e.g., based on market value or net asset value of our BDCs' shares), or compared to our competitors may cause product investors to regard our products less favorably than those of our competitors, thereby adversely affecting our ability to raise new or successor products.
 The investment management business is intensely competitive.
 The investment management business is intensely competitive, with competition based on a variety of factors, including investment performance, business relationships, quality of service provided to clients, product investor liquidity, fund terms (including fees and economic sharing arrangements), brand recognition and business reputation. Maintaining our reputation is critical to attracting and retaining product investors and for maintaining our relationships with our regulators, sponsors, Partner Managers, potential co-investors and joint venture partners, as applicable. Negative publicity regarding our company, our personnel or our Partner Managers could give rise to reputational risk that could significantly harm our existing business and business prospects. We are also currently subject to and may be subject in the future to litigation between ourselves and our Partner Managers, which may harm our reputation.
 Similarly, events could occur that damage the reputation of our industry generally, such as the insolvency or bankruptcy of large funds or a significant number of funds, or their portfolio companies, or highly publicized incidents of fraud or other scandals, any one of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, regardless of whether any of those events directly relate to our products or the investments made by our products. See also "— Risks Related to Macroeconomic Factors — Difficult market and geopolitical conditions may reduce the value or hamper the performance of the investments made by our products or impair the ability of our products to raise or deploy capital."

 Our products compete with a number of specialized funds, corporate buyers, traditional asset managers, real estate companies, insurance companies, commercial banks, investment banks, other investment managers and other financial institutions, including certain of our stockholders, as well as domestic and international pension funds and sovereign wealth funds, and we expect that competition will continue to increase.
 Numerous factors increase our competitive risks, including, but not limited to:
 • Some of our competitors may have or are perceived to have more expertise or financial, technical, marketing and other resources and more personnel than we do;
 • Some of our products may not perform as well as competitors' funds or other available investment products;
 • Some of our competitors have raised significant amounts of capital, and many of them have similar investment objectives to ours, which may create additional competition for investment opportunities;
 • Some of our competitors may have lower fees or alternative fee arrangements that potential clients of ours may find more appealing;
 • Some of our competitors may have a lower cost of capital and access to funding sources that are not available to us, which may create competitive disadvantages for us with respect to our products, including our products that directly use leverage or rely on debt financing of their portfolio investments to generate superior investment returns;
 • Some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances, different risk assessments or lower return thresholds than us, which could allow them to consider a wider variety of investments and to bid more aggressively than us or to agree to less restrictive legal terms and protections for investments that we want to make;
 • Some of our competitors may be subject to less regulation or fewer conflicts of interest and, accordingly, may have more flexibility to undertake and execute certain businesses or investments than we do, bear less compliance expense than we do or be viewed differently in the marketplace;
 • Some of our competitors offer greater liquidity to investors in their products;
 • Some of our competitors may have more flexibility than us in raising and deploying certain types of products under the investment management contracts they have negotiated with their product investors;
 • Some of our competitors may offer broader investment offerings and more partnership opportunities to portfolio companies than we are able to offer; and
 • Some of our competitors have instituted or may institute low cost high speed financial applications and services based on artificial intelligence and new competitors may enter the asset management space using new investment platforms based on artificial intelligence.
 Certain of our strategic relationship investors (including early-stage investors in new products) may be granted the right to participate in the net profits or gross revenues or receive rebates.
 Certain investors in our products have been granted, and may in the future receive various forms of, participation rights with respect to certain products or strategies, including, but not limited to, the right to the net profits or gross revenues of certain products. To the extent gross revenue participations or similar arrangements are offered, they will reduce the revenue earned by us, but we will continue to bear all applicable expenses, even if the product is not generating positive cash flow. We may also offer our employees the opportunity to participate in certain types of these arrangements in certain circumstances as a way of compensating or incentivizing employees. There is generally no limitation on the size or the duration of future economic sharing arrangements.
 In addition, in the ordinary course we may offer fee discounts to investors in existing and future products and we expect to continue to waive fees for many or all of our co-investments. We currently expect, at least in certain instances, to continue to offer these economic sharing arrangements to our strategic relationship investors (which may include certain of our stockholders) in the future, which may reduce the revenues ultimately earned by us in respect of these products.

 Our failure to comply with investment guidelines set by our clients and/or investors could negatively impact our client and investor relationships, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 When clients retain us to manage assets on their behalf, they specify certain guidelines regarding investment allocation and strategy that we are required to observe in the management of their portfolios. Similarly, investors in our products often require certain investment restrictions or limitations be included in their side letters or related governing documents that we are contractually obligated to observe in the management of such investors' interests in the applicable products. Our failure to comply with these guidelines, restrictions and other limitations could result in clients terminating their investment management agreement with us or investors seeking to withdraw from our products, as well as regulatory scrutiny. Clients or investors could also sue us for breach of contract and seek to recover damages from us, which could negatively impact our reputation. In addition, such guidelines may restrict our ability to pursue certain investments and strategies on behalf of our clients or limit an investor's exposure to such investments and strategies that we believe are economically desirable, which could similarly result in losses to a client account or investor capital account or termination or potential withdrawal of the account or investor and a corresponding reduction in AUM. Even if we comply with all applicable investment guidelines, restrictions and limitations, a client or investor may be dissatisfied with its investment performance or our services or fees, and may terminate their customized separate accounts or advisory accounts, seek to withdraw from our funds or be unwilling to commit new capital to our specialized funds, customized separate accounts or advisory accounts. Any of these events could cause our earnings to decline and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 Risks Related to Our Products
 The historical returns attributable to our products should not be considered as indicative of the future results of our products or of our future results or of any returns expected on an investment in our Class A Shares.
 The historical performance of our products is relevant to us primarily insofar as it is indicative of our reputation and ability to raise new products. The historical and potential returns of the products we advise are not, however, directly linked to returns on shares of our Class A Shares. Therefore, holders of our Class A Shares should not conclude that positive performance of the products we advise will necessarily result in positive returns on a return on investment in our Class A Shares. However, poor performance of our products we advise would likely cause a decline in our revenues and would therefore likely have a negative effect on our operating results, returns on our Class A Shares and a negative impact on our ability to raise new products. Also, there is no assurance that projections in respect of our products or unrealized valuations will be realized.
 Moreover, the historical returns of our products should not be considered indicative of the future returns of these or from any future products we may raise, in part because:
 • market conditions during previous periods may have been significantly more favorable for generating positive performance than the market conditions we may experience in the future;
 • our products' rates of returns, which are calculated on the basis of net asset value of the products' investments, reflect unrealized gains, which may never be realized;
 • our products' returns have previously benefited from investment opportunities and general market conditions that may not recur, including the availability of debt capital on attractive terms and the availability of distressed debt opportunities, and we may not be able to achieve the same returns or profitable investment opportunities or deploy capital as quickly;
 • the historical returns that we present in this report derive largely from the performance of our earlier products, whereas future product returns will depend increasingly on the performance of our newer products or products not yet formed, which may have little or no realized investment track record;
 • our products' historical investments were made over a long period of time and over the course of various market and macroeconomic cycles, and the circumstances under which our current or future products may make future investments may differ significantly from those conditions prevailing in the past;
 • the attractive returns of certain of our products have been driven by the rapid return on invested capital, which has not occurred with respect to all of our products;

 • in recent years, there has been increased competition for investment opportunities resulting from the increased amount of capital invested in alternative funds and high liquidity in debt markets, and the increased competition for investments may reduce our returns in the future; and
 • our newly established products may generate lower returns during the period that they take to deploy their capital.
 The future return for any current or future product may vary considerably from the historical return generated by any particular product, or for our products as a whole. Future returns will also be affected by the risks described elsewhere in this report, including risks of the industries and businesses in which a particular product invests.
 Valuation methodologies for certain assets of our products can be open to subjectivity.
 Many of the investments in our products are illiquid and thus have no readily ascertainable market prices. We value these investments based on our estimate, or an independent third party's estimate, of their value as of the date of determination. The determination of fair value, and thus the amount of unrealized appreciation or depreciation our products may recognize in any reporting period, is to a degree subjective. Our products generally value their investments quarterly at fair value, based on, among other things, the input of third party valuation firms and taking into account the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company's ability to make payments and its earnings, the markets in which the portfolio company operates, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flow, current market interest rates and other relevant factors. Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of private securities, private companies and privately owned real estate, are inherently uncertain, the valuations may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time due to changes in current market conditions. A fund's net asset value could be adversely affected if the determinations regarding the fair value of the investments were materially higher than the values that are ultimately realized upon the disposal of such investments. These valuations could, in turn, affect the management fees or performance income that we receive.
 The use of leverage by our products may materially increase the returns of such products but may also result in significant losses or a total loss of capital.
 Our products, particularly our Credit and Real Assets products, use leverage as part of their respective investment programs and certain products regularly borrow a substantial amount of their capital. The use of leverage poses a significant degree of risk and enhances the possibility of a significant loss in the value of the investment portfolio. A fund may borrow money from time to time to purchase or carry securities or may enter into derivative transactions with counterparties that have embedded leverage. The use of leverage by our products increases the volatility of investments by magnifying the potential for gain or loss on invested equity capital. If the value of a fund's assets were to decrease, leverage would cause net asset value to decline more sharply than it otherwise would if the fund had not employed leverage. Similarly, any decrease in the fund's income would cause net income to decline more sharply than it would have if it had not borrowed and employed leverage. Such a decline could negatively affect the fund's ability to service its debt, which could have a material adverse effect on our products, and as a result, on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
 Our private funds often rely on obtaining credit facilities secured principally by the undrawn capital commitments of their investors. These credit lines are an important part of managing the cash flow of the funds, including facilitating a fund's acquisition or funding of investments, enhancing the regularity of cash distributions to investors and facilitating the payment of management fees to us. The inability to secure or maintain these lines of credit would have an adverse impact on our products and their returns and on us, including increasing administrative costs associated with managing a fund.
 We are vulnerable to an increased number of investors seeking to participate in share redemption programs or tender offers of our non-traded products.
 In recent periods we have launched a number of non-traded products, including BDCs and REITs. Non-traded products often conduct share redemption programs or tender offers to provide liquidity to investors in such vehicles. While such share redemption programs and tender offers may contain restrictions that limit the amount of shares that may be redeemed or purchased in particular periods, an increase in the number of investors requesting redemptions or participating in tender offers, or an increase in the amount of shares redeemed or purchased through such redemption programs or tender offers, of our non-traded products could lead to a decline in the management fees and incentive fees we receive. Economic events affecting the U.S. economy, such as volatility in the financial markets, inflation, fluctuations in interest rates or global or national events that are beyond our control, could cause investors to request redemption of an increased number of shares pursuant to the share redemption programs of our non-traded products, potentially in excess of established limits. Such prolonged economic disruptions have caused a number of similar products to deny redemption requests or to suspend or partially suspend their share

 redemption programs and tender offers and such suspension may have a negative reputational impact on the manager or on its ability to continue fundraising. Our non-traded products may redeem or purchase fewer shares than investors request due to a lack of readily available funds due to a number of factors, including adverse market conditions beyond our control or the need to maintain liquidity for operations. Certain of our non-traded products may amend or suspend share repurchase programs during periods of market dislocation. This may further limit the amount of cash available to immediately satisfy redemption requests. Any redemptions or purchases of less than amounts requested could undermine investor confidence in our non-traded products and harm our reputation.
 The products and investment strategies we currently pursue may expose us to specific market, tax, regulatory and other risks.
 We currently pursue, through our products, multiple investment strategies. While we believe that there may be certain synergies amongst the various strategies, there can be no assurance that the benefits will manifest or that there will not be unanticipated consequences resulting therefrom. Although we are seeking additional investment strategies, relative to more diversified asset managers, our products' limited and specialized focus also leaves us more exposed to risks affecting the sectors in which our products invest. As our investment management program is not broadly diversified, we may be uniquely exposed to market, tax, regulatory and other risks affecting the sectors in which we invest. There can be no assurance that we will be able to take actions necessary to mitigate the effect of such risks or otherwise diversify our investment program to minimize such exposure.
 Our GP Strategic Capital products may suffer losses if our Partner Managers are unable to raise new products or grow their AUM.
 As our GP Strategic Capital products' investments in Partner Managers are intended to be held for an indefinite duration, we are dependent upon the ability of our Partner Managers to successfully execute their investment program and grow their assets under management. In the event that a Partner Manager is unable to grow their assets under management or such Partner Manager's investment returns fail to meet expectations, the returns attributable to such investment may be reduced or our products may suffer a loss on such investment. A Partner Manager's failure to grow assets under management may result from a range of factors common to asset managers, including factors to which we are subject ourselves, or specific factors attributable to its business including the departure of key persons, the inability of such Partner Manager to diversify into new investment strategies, investment performance and regulatory enforcement actions.
 Our alternative credit products may expose us to incremental risks and complexities.
 We engage in various forms of alternative credit structured finance arrangements that are collateralized by various asset classes. Asset-based financing investments are generally structured as loans or securities that represent the purchase or participation in, or are collateralized by and payable from, a stream of payments generated by pools of financial, physical or other assets. Specifically, our alternative credit portfolio targets investments in markets that are underserved by traditional lenders, including, without limitation, secured and unsecured consumer credit receivables, less established companies (including startups and emerging growth companies), consumer leases, residential and commercial real estate, hard assets (such as equipment leases), aviation assets, shipping assets, transportation and storage assets and financial assets such as factoring receivables, litigation claims, financial claims, trade claims and other receivables. These forms of alternative credit generally expose a lender to a greater degree of business and credit risks than traditional lending, as repayment of the loans often depends upon the performance of credit or credit-related assets, the successful operation of the businesses, greater exposure of less established companies to market volatility and potential for fraud and the income stream of the borrower. Additionally, investments in such markets expose our business to additional regulations promulgated by state and federal regulators, including the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB"), which may impact our business in new and unexpected ways. The CFPB has broad powers to administer, investigate compliance with and, in some cases, enforce U.S. federal financial consumer protection laws. The CFPB has broad rule-making authority for a wide range of financial consumer protection laws that apply to investments our products make in markets, products or services that serve consumers, including laws that regulate "unfair, deceptive or abusive" consumer acts and practices.
 The CFPB and other federal or state regulators may examine, investigate and take enforcement actions against the companies that our products invest in that offer consumer financial services and products, as well as financial institutions and other third parties upon which such companies rely to provide consumer financial services and products. State regulators also have certain authority in enforcing and promulgating financial consumer protection laws. As a result, some states have issued new and broader financial consumer protection laws and others may in the future, which are more comprehensive than existing U.S. federal regulations. In addition, state attorneys general may in some cases bring actions to enforce federal consumer protection laws. Depending on how governmental authorities elect to exercise their statutory authority, it could increase the compliance

 costs for the companies that our alternative credit products invest in, potentially delay their ability to respond to marketplace changes, result in requirements to alter products and services that would make them less attractive to consumers, and experience other negative impacts on their business condition and results of operations that in turn impact their ability to repay loans and negatively affect our products' investments in such companies.
 Our Real Assets products are subject to the risks inherent in the ownership and operation of real estate and the construction and development of real estate.
 Investments in our Real Assets products are subject to the risks inherent in the ownership and operation of real estate and real estate-related businesses and assets. These investments are subject to the potential for deterioration of real estate fundamentals and the risk of adverse changes in local market and economic conditions, which may include changes in supply of and demand for competing properties in an area, fluctuating occupancy rates and changes in demand for commercial office properties (including as a result of an increased prevalence of remote work). Additionally, our products' properties are generally self-managed by the tenant or managed by a third party, which makes us dependent upon such third parties and subjects us to risks associated with the actions and financial resources of such third parties.
 More generally, investments in real estate-related businesses and assets are subject to risks including the following:
 • the financial resources of tenants;
 • changes in building, environmental and other laws;
 • energy and supply shortages;
 • various uninsured or uninsurable risks;
 • natural disasters, extreme weather events and other physical risks related to climate change;
 • changes in government regulations (such as rent control, digital infrastructure regulation and tax laws);
 • changes in interest rates;
 • the reduced availability of mortgage funds which may render the sale or refinancing of properties difficult or impracticable;
 • negative developments in the economy that depress travel activity;
 • environmental liabilities;
 • contingent liabilities on disposition of assets;
 • unexpected cost overruns in connection with development projects; and
 • terrorist attacks and conflicts and other factors that are beyond our control.
 Following completion of the IPI Acquisition, we expect our products will have and increasingly make investments in infrastructure assets such as data center and logistics hubs. The acquisition of infrastructure assets involves substantial and continual involvement by, or an ongoing commitment to, regulatory agencies, which often have considerable discretion to change or increase regulation of the operations of infrastructure assets. In many instances, the operation or acquisition of infrastructure assets may involve an ongoing commitment to or from municipal, state, federal or foreign government, regulatory agencies or governing bodies. The nature of these obligations exposes the owners of infrastructure assets to a higher level of regulatory control than is typically imposed on other businesses, which could impair or prevent operation of a facility owned by an infrastructure asset, the completion of a previously announced acquisition or sale to third parties, or could otherwise result in additional costs and material adverse consequences to an infrastructure asset and investments in such assets. In addition, revenues for such investments may rely on contractual agreements for the provision of services with a limited number of counterparties and are consequently subject to heightened counterparty default risk.
 Any of these factors may cause the value of the investments in our Real Assets products to decline, which may have a material impact on our results of operations. In connection with obtaining commercial loans backed by real estate, the lender will

 typically require a "bad boy" guarantee, in which our investment vehicles and we may guarantee liability for environmental liabilities and bad acts including fraud, intentional misrepresentation, voluntary bankruptcy and other acts. It is expected that commercial real estate financing arrangements generally will require "bad boy" guarantees and in the event such guarantee is called, a fund's or our assets could be materially and adversely affected.
 Our professional sports minority stakes strategy is small, but may have a disproportionate effect on our reputation.
 Our professional sports minority stakes strategy is small and has been difficult to grow. Our Blue Owl HomeCourt Fund makes minority investments in NBA franchises and may also invest in entities with exposure to other sports leagues or franchises outside of the NBA. The NBA provides certain services with respect to the Blue Owl HomeCourt Fund and receives a share of management fees and incentive allocations attributable to the fund. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funds to continue to execute this strategy in the future. As adviser to the Blue Owl HomeCourt Fund, we may be exposed to liability to the NBA, other sports leagues or one or more NBA or other league teams in which we invest in a range of circumstances, including as a result of a violation of rules applicable to NBA or other league franchise owners by us or investors in our Blue Owl HomeCourt Fund or, in certain circumstances, by our co-owners of a team (regardless of whether such persons were acting under our direction or control). In addition, the NBA may terminate its relationship with us for a variety of reasons, including the departure of certain key persons or the occurrence of certain events constituting cause. The Blue Owl HomeCourt Fund may also evoke a high profile in the marketplace relative to its economic significance to us. Therefore, any failure in the growth or performance of the professional sports minority stakes strategy could not only result in a decrease in our FPAUM growth potential but could also have a disproportionately adverse effect on our reputation.
 Our equity investments and some of our debt investments rank junior to investments made by others, exposing us to greater risk of losing our investment.
 In addition, in many cases, the portfolio companies in which we or our products invest have, or are permitted to have, outstanding indebtedness or equity securities that rank senior to our or our products' investment. By their terms, such instruments may provide that their holders are entitled to receive payments of distributions, interest or principal on or before the dates on which payments are to be made in respect of our or our investment products' investment. Also, in the event of insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of a portfolio company in which an investment is made, holders of securities ranking senior to our investment would typically be entitled to receive payment in full before distributions could be made in respect of our investment. In addition, debt investments made by us or our investment products in our portfolio companies may rank junior to the senior debt investments made by third parties in our portfolio companies. After repaying senior security holders, the portfolio company may not have any remaining assets to use for repaying amounts owed in respect of our investment. To the extent that any assets remain, holders of claims that rank equally with our investment would be entitled to share on an equal and ratable basis in distributions that are made out of those assets. Also, during periods of financial distress or following insolvency, the ability of us or our products to influence a portfolio company's affairs and to take actions to protect an investment will likely be substantially less than that of the senior creditors.
 Risks Related to Our Operations
 The anticipated benefits of recent or future acquisitions may not be realized or may take longer than expected to realize.
 We have recently acquired assets or businesses, and may in the future pursue acquisitions of assets or business, that are complementary to our business. For any such acquisitions, the optimization of our combined operations may be a complex, costly and time-consuming process and if we experience difficulties in this process, the anticipated benefits may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected, which could have an adverse effect on us for an undetermined period after any such acquisition. There can be no assurances that we will realize any potential operating efficiencies, synergies and other benefits anticipated in connection with such acquisitions.
 The integration of our acquisitions may present material challenges, including, without limitation:
 • combining leadership teams and corporate cultures;
 • the diversion of management's attention from ongoing business concerns and performance shortfalls as a result of the devotion of management's attention to the integration of a new asset or business;
 • managing a larger combined business;

 • maintaining employee morale and retaining key management and other employees, including by offering sufficiently attractive terms of employment;
 • retaining existing business and operational relationships, and attracting new business and operational relationships;
 • the possibility of faulty assumptions underlying expectations regarding the integration process;
 • consolidating corporate and administrative infrastructures and eliminating duplicative operations;
 • difficulty replicating or replacing functions, systems and infrastructure provided by prior owners of interests in one or more business divisions or the loss of benefits from such prior owners' global contracts;
 • managing expense loads and maintaining currently anticipated operating margins given that products may be different in nature and therefore may require additional personnel and compensation expenses, which expenses may be borne by us, rather than our products; and
 • unanticipated issues in integrating information technology, communications and other systems.
 Some of those factors are outside of our control, and any one of them could result in delays, increased costs, performance shortfalls, decreases in the amount of potential revenues or synergies, potential cost savings, and diversion of management's time and energy, which could materially and potentially adversely affect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
 We may continue to enter into new product lines and expand into new investment strategies, geographic markets and businesses, each of which may result in upfront costs and additional risks and uncertainties in our business.
 We intend, if market conditions warrant, to grow our business by increasing FPAUM in existing products and expanding into new investment strategies, geographic markets (including in both U.S. and non-U.S. markets) and products. We may pursue growth through acquisitions of other investment management companies, expansion into new markets, acquisitions of critical business partners or other strategic initiatives, in each case, which may include entering into new lines of business.
 Attempts to expand our business involve a number of special risks, including some or all of the following:
 • the required investment of capital and other resources;
 • the diversion of management's attention from our core products;
 • the assumption of liabilities in any acquired business;
 • the disruption of our ongoing business;
 • entry into markets or lines of business in which we may have limited or no experience, and which may subject us to new laws and regulations which we are not familiar or from which we are currently exempt;
 • increasing demands on our operational and management systems and controls;
 • compliance with or applicability to our business or our products' portfolio companies of regulations and laws, including, in particular, local regulations and laws (for example, consumer protection-related laws, digital infrastructure regulation, environmental regulation, insurance regulation and tax laws) and the impact that noncompliance or even perceived noncompliance could have on us and our products' portfolio companies;
 • conflicts between business lines in deal flow or objectives;
 • we may be dependent upon, and subject to liability, losses or reputational damage relating to, systems, controls and personnel that are not under our control;
 • potential increase in product investor concentration; and

 • the broadening of our geographic footprint, increasing the risks associated with conducting operations in foreign jurisdictions where we currently have little or no presence, such as different legal, tax and regulatory regimes and currency fluctuations, which require additional resources to address.
 Because we have not yet identified these potential new investment strategies, geographic markets or lines of business, we cannot identify all of the specific risks we may face and the potential adverse consequences on us and our investments that may result from any attempted expansion.
 Rapid growth of our business may be difficult to sustain and may place significant demands on our administrative, operational and financial resources.
 Our AUM has grown significantly in the past, and we intend to pursue further growth in the near future, including through acquisitions. Our rapid growth has placed, and future growth, if successful, will continue to place, significant demands on our legal, compliance, accounting and operational infrastructure and will result in increased expenses. In addition, we are, and will continue to be, required to continuously develop our systems and infrastructure in response to the increasing sophistication of the investment management market; legal, accounting, regulatory and tax developments and continually evolving cybersecurity risks.
 Our future growth will depend in part on our ability to maintain an operating infrastructure and management system sufficient to address our growth and may require us to incur significant additional expenses and to commit additional senior management and operational resources. As a result, we may face significant challenges in:
 • maintaining adequate financial, regulatory (legal, tax and compliance) and business controls;
 • providing current and future product investors and stockholders with accurate and consistent reporting;
 • implementing new or updated information and financial systems and procedures; and
 • training, managing and appropriately sizing our work force and other components of our business on a timely and cost-effective basis.
 We may not be able to manage our expanding operations effectively and may not be ready to continue to grow because of operational needs, and any failure to do so could adversely affect our ability to generate revenue and control our expenses.
 Our use of leverage to finance our business or that of our products may expose us to substantial risks. Any security interests or negative covenants required by a credit facility we enter into may limit our ability to create liens on assets to secure additional debt.
 We may choose to finance our business operations through the issuance of senior notes, borrowing under our Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 7 to our Financial Statements) or by issuing additional debt in the future. Our existing and future indebtedness exposes us to the typical risks associated with the use of leverage. The occurrence or continuation of any of these events or trends could cause us to suffer a decline in the credit ratings assigned to our debt by rating agencies, which could cause the interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility to increase and could result in other material adverse effects on our business. We depend on financial institutions extending credit to us on terms that are reasonable to us. There is no guarantee that such institutions will continue to extend credit to us or renew any existing credit agreements we may have with them, or that we will be able to refinance outstanding facilities when they mature. In addition, the incurrence of additional debt in the future could result in potential downgrades of our existing corporate credit ratings, which could limit the availability of future financing and increase our cost of borrowing. Furthermore, our Revolving Credit Facility contains certain covenants with which we need to comply. Non-compliance with any of the covenants without cure or waiver would constitute an event of default, and an event of default resulting from a breach of certain covenants could result, at the option of the lenders, in an acceleration of the principal and interest outstanding. Additionally, for many Credit products, the gross asset value used as the base for the management fee includes investments purchased with leverage. If we are unable to obtain leverage at the expected level, or at all, this will have a negative impact on our ability to realize the full fee potential of any particular fund.
 As borrowings under our senior notes, Revolving Credit Facility and any future indebtedness mature, we may be required to either refinance them by entering into new facilities or issuing additional debt, which could result in higher borrowing costs, or issuing equity, which would dilute existing stockholders. We could also repay these borrowings by using cash on hand, cash

 provided by our continuing operations or cash from the sale of our assets. We may be unable to enter into new facilities or issue debt or equity in the future on attractive terms, or at all. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are SOFR-based (as defined in Note 7 to our Financial Statements) obligations. As a result, an increase in SOFR will increase our interest costs if such borrowings are not been hedged into fixed rates in the future.
 Additionally, Blue Owl may provide financial guarantees of performance in connection with certain investments, particularly in our Real Assets products, to certain lenders to its products and investments. Lenders in commercial real estate financing customarily will require such guarantees, which typically provides that the lender can recover losses from the guarantors for certain bad acts, such as fraud or intentional misrepresentation, intentional waste, willful misconduct, criminal acts, misappropriation of funds, voluntary incurrence of prohibited debt and environmental losses sustained by the lenders. It is expected that commercial real estate financing arrangements will generally require such guarantees and in the event that such a guarantee is called, Blue Owl's assets could be materially and adversely affected.
 Risk management activities may adversely affect the return on our and our products' investments.
 When managing our exposure to market risks, we may (on our own behalf or on behalf of our products) from time to time use forward contracts, options, swaps, caps, collars and floors or pursue other strategies or use other forms of derivative instruments to limit our exposure to changes in the relative values of investments that may result from market developments, including changes in prevailing interest rates, currency exchange rates and commodity prices. The scope of risk management activities undertaken by us varies based on the level and volatility of interest rates, prevailing foreign currency exchange rates, the types of investments that are made and other changing market conditions. The use of hedging transactions and other derivative instruments to reduce the effects of a decline in the value of a position does not eliminate the possibility of fluctuations in the value of the position or prevent losses if the value of the position declines. Such transactions may also limit the opportunity for gain if the value of a position increases. Moreover, it may not be possible to limit the exposure to a market development that is so generally anticipated that a hedging or other derivative transaction cannot be entered into at an acceptable price. Currency fluctuations, in particular, can have a substantial effect on our cash flow and financial condition. The success of any hedging or other derivative transaction generally will depend on our ability to correctly predict market changes, the degree of correlation between price movements of a derivative instrument and the position being hedged, the creditworthiness of the counterparty and other factors. As a result, while we may enter into such a transaction in order to reduce our exposure to market risks, the transaction may result in poorer overall firm or investment performance than if it had not been executed. Such transactions may also limit the opportunity for gain if the value of a hedged position increases.
 While such hedging arrangements may reduce certain risks, such arrangements themselves may entail certain other risks. These arrangements may require the posting of cash collateral at a time when a fund has insufficient cash or illiquid assets such that the posting of the cash is either impossible or requires the sale of assets at prices that do not reflect their underlying value. Moreover, these hedging arrangements may generate significant transaction costs, including potential tax costs, which may reduce the returns generated by Blue Owl or a product.
 Cybersecurity risks and cyber data security incidents could adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information and confidential information in our possession and damage to our business relationships.
 There has been an increase in the frequency and sophistication of the cyber and security threats we face, with attacks ranging from those common to businesses generally to those that are more advanced and persistent, which may target us because, as an alternative asset management firm, we hold confidential and other price sensitive information about existing and potential investments. Cyber-attacks and other security threats could originate from a wide variety of sources, including cyber criminals, nation state hackers, hacktivists and other outside parties. Additionally, cyber-attacks and other security threats have become increasingly complex as a result of the emergence of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence, which are able to identify and target new vulnerabilities in information technology systems. As a result, we may face a heightened risk of a security breach or disruption with respect to confidential information resulting from an attack by computer hackers, foreign governments or cyber terrorists.
 The efficient operation of our business is dependent on computer hardware and software systems, as well as data processing systems and the secure processing, storage and transmission of information, which are vulnerable to security breaches and cyber-attacks. A cyber-attack is considered to be any adverse event that threatens the confidentiality, integrity or availability of our information resources. These incidents may be an intentional attack or an unintentional event and could involve gaining unauthorized access to our information systems for purposes of misappropriating assets, stealing confidential information, corrupting data or causing operational disruption. In addition, we and our employees may be the target of fraudulent emails or

 other targeted attempts to gain unauthorized access to proprietary or sensitive information. The result of any cyber-attack may include disrupted operations, misstated or unreliable financial data, fraudulent transfers or requests for transfers of money, liability for stolen assets or information (including personal information), increased cybersecurity protection and insurance costs, litigation or damage to our business relationships and reputation, in each case causing our business and results of operations to suffer. The rapid evolution and increasing prevalence of artificial intelligence technologies may also intensify our cybersecurity risks.
 As our reliance on technology has increased, so have the risks posed to our information systems, both internal and those provided by third-party service providers. We cannot guarantee that third parties and infrastructure in our networks or our partners' networks have not been compromised or that they do not contain exploitable defects or bugs that could result in a breach of or disruption to our information technology systems or the third-party information technology systems that support our services. Our ability to monitor these third parties' information security practices is limited, and they may not have adequate information security measures in place. We have implemented processes, procedures and internal controls designed to mitigate cybersecurity risks and cyber intrusions and rely on industry accepted security measures and technology to securely maintain confidential and proprietary information maintained on our information systems. However, these measures, as well as our increased awareness of the nature and extent of a risk of a cyber-attack, do not guarantee that a cyber-attack will not occur or that our financial results, operations or confidential information will not be negatively impacted by such an incident, especially because the cyber-attack techniques change frequently or are not recognized until launched and because cyber-attacks can originate from a wide variety of sources.
 Cybersecurity risks are exacerbated by the rapidly increasing volume of highly sensitive data, including our proprietary business information and intellectual property, personally identifiable information of our employees, our clients and others and other sensitive information that we collect and store in our data centers,on our cloud environments and on our networks. Our products may also invest in strategic assets having a national or regional profile or in infrastructure assets, the nature of which could expose them to a greater risk of being subject to a terrorist attack or security breach than other assets or businesses. The secure processing, maintenance and transmission of this information are critical to our operations. A significant actual or potential theft, loss, corruption, exposure, fraudulent use or misuse of product investor, employee or other personally identifiable, proprietary business data or other sensitive information, whether by third parties or as a result of employee malfeasance (or the negligence or malfeasance of third party service providers that have access to such confidential information) or otherwise, non-compliance with our contractual or other legal obligations regarding such data or intellectual property or a violation of our privacy and security policies with respect to such data could result in significant remediation and other costs, fines, litigation or regulatory actions against us and significant reputational harm, any of which could harm our business and results of operations.
 We are subject to risks in using custodians, counterparties, administrators and other agents.
 Many of our products depend on the services of custodians, counterparties, administrators and other agents to carry out certain transactions and other administrative services, including compliance with regulatory requirements in U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions. We are subject to risks of errors and mistakes made by these third parties, which may be attributed to us and subject us or our products' investors to reputational damage, penalties or losses. We depend on third parties to provide primary and back up communications and information systems. Any failure or interruption of those systems, including as a result of the termination of an agreement with any third-party service providers, or as a result of cyber-attacks or other breaches could cause delays or other problems in our activities. Our financial, accounting, data processing, portfolio monitoring, backup or other operating systems and facilities may fail to operate properly or become disabled or damaged as a result of a number of factors including events that are wholly or partially beyond our control.
 The terms of the contracts with third-party service providers are often customized and complex, and many of these arrangements occur in markets or relate to products that are not subject to regulatory oversight. Accordingly, we may be unsuccessful in seeking reimbursement or indemnification from these third-party service providers. In addition, we rely on a select number of third-party services providers and replacement of any one of our service providers could be difficult and result in disruption and expense.
 Risks Related to Personnel
 We depend on our senior management team, senior investment professionals and other key personnel to provide their services to us and our products.
 Our success depends on the efforts, judgment and personal reputations of our senior management team, senior investment professionals and other key personnel. Their reputations, expertise in investing, relationships with product investors and with

 other members of the business communities on whom we and our products depend on for investment opportunities and financing are each critical elements in operating and expanding our business. The loss of the services of our senior management team, senior investment professionals or other key personnel could have a material adverse effect on us and our products, and on the performance of our products, including on our ability to retain and attract product investors and raise capital.
 The departure of some or all of those individuals could also trigger certain provisions tied to the departure of, or cessation of committed time, by those persons (known as "key person" provisions) in the documentation governing certain of our products, which could permit the investors in those products to suspend or terminate those products' investment periods. We do not carry any "key person" insurance that would provide us with proceeds in the event of the death or disability of any of our senior professionals, and we do not have a policy that prohibits our senior professionals from traveling together.
 In addition, each of Doug Ostrover, Marc Lipschultz, Michael Rees and Marc Zahr (each a "Key Individual") is entitled to significant compensation payments and under certain circumstances (including the Key Individual's death or disability), the Key Individual (or his estate) is entitled to retain those payments for up to five years following such person's ceasing to be employed by us. While we continue to make such payments, we may need to find or promote new employees to replace the former Key Individual, which may require additional significant compensation to be paid by us, which could adversely affect our earnings.
 Employee misconduct could harm us by impairing our ability to attract and retain product investors and subjecting us to significant legal liability, regulatory scrutiny and reputational harm.
 Our ability to attract and retain product investors and to pursue investment opportunities for our clients depends heavily upon the reputation of our professionals, especially our senior professionals as well as third-party service providers. We are subject to a number of obligations and standards arising from our investment management business and our authority and statutory fiduciary status over the assets managed by our investment management business. Further, our employees are subject to various internal policies including a Code of Business Conduct and policies covering conflicts of interest, information systems, business continuity and information security. The violation of those obligations, standards and policies by any of our employees or misconduct by one of our third-party service providers could adversely affect investors in our products and us. Our business often requires that we deal with confidential matters of great significance to companies in which our products may invest. If our employees, former employees or third-party service providers were to use or disclose confidential information improperly, we could suffer serious harm to our reputation, financial position and current and future business relationships. Employee or third-party service provider misconduct could also include, among other things, binding us to transactions that exceed authorized limits or present unacceptable risks and other unauthorized activities or concealing unsuccessful investments (which, in either case, may result in unknown and unmanaged risks or losses), or otherwise charging (or seeking to charge) inappropriate expenses or inappropriate or unlawful behavior or actions directed towards other employees.
 It is not always possible to detect or deter misconduct by employees or third-party service providers, and the extensive precautions we take to detect and prevent this activity may not be effective in all cases. If one or more of our employees, former employees or third-party service providers were to engage in misconduct or were to be accused of such misconduct, our business and our reputation could be adversely affected and a loss of product investor confidence could result, which would adversely impact our ability to raise future products. Our current and former employees and those of our products' investments as well as our third-party service providers may also become subject to allegations of sexual harassment, racial and gender discrimination or other similar misconduct, which, regardless of the ultimate outcome, may result in adverse publicity that could harm our and such portfolio company's brand and reputation.
 Our future growth depends on our ability to attract, retain and develop human capital in a highly competitive talent market.
 The success of our business will continue to depend upon us attracting, developing and retaining human capital. Competition for qualified, motivated, and highly-skilled executives, professionals and other key personnel in asset management firms is significant. Turnover and associated costs of rehiring, the loss of human capital through attrition, death, or disability and the reduced ability to attract talent could impair our ability to implement our future growth and maintain our standards of excellence. Our future success will depend upon our ability to find, attract, retain and motivate highly-skilled and highly-qualified individuals. We seek to provide our personnel with competitive benefits and compensation packages. However, our efforts may not be sufficient to enable us to attract, retain and motivate qualified individuals to support our growth. Moreover, if our personnel join competitors or form businesses that compete with ours, that could adversely affect our ability to raise new or successor products.

 Conflicts of Interest
 Conflicts of interest may arise in our allocation of capital and co-investment opportunities.
 As an asset manager with multiple clients, including our various and expanding strategies and products, we increasingly confront conflicts of interests relating to our investment activities and operations. In particular, our allocation of capital and co-investment opportunities across our products are subject to numerous actual or potential conflicts of interest. Although we have implemented policies and procedures to address those conflicts, our failure to effectively identify and address them could cause reputational harm and a loss of investor confidence in our business. It could also result in regulatory lapses that could lead to applicable penalties, as well as increased regulatory oversight of our business. Identifying potential conflicts of interest is complex and fact-intensive, and it is not possible to foresee every conflict of interest that could or will arise.
 Potential conflicts of interest in allocation among our products.
 Certain of our products may have overlapping investment objectives, including products that have different fee structures, and conflicts may arise with respect to our allocation of investment opportunities among those products as well as other co-investors. We may allocate an investment opportunity that is appropriate for two or more investment products in a manner that excludes one or more products or results in a disproportionate allocation based on factors or criteria that we determine including, but not limited to, differences with respect to available capital; the current or anticipated size of a product; minimum investment amounts; the remaining life of a product; differences in investment objectives, guidelines or strategies; diversification; portfolio construction considerations; liquidity needs; legal, tax and regulatory requirements and other considerations deemed relevant to us and in accordance with our policies and procedures. Although we have adopted investment allocation policies and procedures that are designed to ensure fair and equitable treatment over time, and expect such policies and procedures to continue to evolve, those policies and procedures will not eliminate all potential conflicts. Additionally, certain investment opportunities may be allocated to certain products that have lower fees or to our co-investment products or third-party co-investors that pay no fees. To the extent that those investments could otherwise have been allocated to products generating FPAUM, our revenues will be less than what would otherwise have been generated were those investments made through fee paying structures.
 Potential conflicts of interest in connection with co-investments between our private funds and our BDCs.
 Our BDCs are permitted to co-invest in portfolio companies with each other and with affiliated investment funds in negotiated transactions pursuant to an SEC order (the "Co-investment Exemptive Order"). Pursuant to that exemptive relief, our BDCs and other affiliated investment funds generally are permitted to make such co-investments if a "required majority" (as defined in Section 57(o) of the Investment Company Act) of such BDC's directors (including the independent directors) makes certain conclusions in connection with the co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to such BDC and its shareholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of such BDC or its shareholders on the part of any person concerned, (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of such BDC's shareholders and with its investment objective and strategies, and (3) the investment by one of our BDCs and other affiliated investment funds would not disadvantage any other of our BDCs, and such BDC's participation would not be on a basis different from or less advantageous than that on which the other BDCs or other affiliated investment funds are investing. The different investment objectives or terms of the BDCs and affiliated investment funds may result in a potential conflict of interest, including in connection with the allocation of investments among our BDCs and/or our affiliated investment funds pursuant to the Co-investment Exemptive Order or otherwise.
 As a result of our structure, our private funds are affiliated investment funds of our BDCs and are prohibited from co-investing with our BDCs, except as permitted by the Investment Company Act and the Co-investment Exemptive Order. Those restrictions may limit the ability of our private funds to make certain investments they otherwise may have made, and subject our products to additional compliance and regulatory risk. The Co-investment Exemptive Order requires that any opportunities that are appropriate for both our BDCs and our private funds will need to be offered to our BDCs and any such investments, if made, will need to be conducted in compliance with the conditions of the Co-Investment Exemptive Order and other requirements under the Investment Company Act.
 Conflicts related to investments by several of our products at different levels of the capital structure of a single portfolio company or Partner Manager.
 Different products that we advise may invest in a single portfolio company, including at different levels of the capital structure of the same portfolio company. For example, in the normal course of business, one of our products may acquire debt positions in, or lend to, portfolio companies in which another of our products owns common equity securities or a subordinated debt

 position. Such investments or commitments may be made at different times, at different prices and on different terms. The interests of these different products invested in different levels of the capital structure of a portfolio company may not always be aligned and actions taken for one product may be adverse to one or more other products, which may give rise to conflicts of interest. The interests of these different products may diverge significantly particularly in the case of financial distress of the portfolio company. For example, in a bankruptcy proceeding or out-of-court restructuring, the interests of a product owning equity or subordinated debt securities may be subordinated or otherwise adversely affected by virtue of a different product's actions in respect of its own interests as a senior debt holder. The governing documents of our products may also prevent or impose conditions on other products investing at different levels of the capital structure. Alternatively, we may be incentivized to cause a product invested in a senior debt position to be more passive or refrain from taking actions adverse to other products invested in equity or subordinated debt given the possibility for losses for these products. In addition, if one of our BDCs is an investor in a portfolio company alongside other of our products that have invested in a different part of the portfolio company's capital structure, the Investment Company Act may prohibit us from negotiating on behalf of any such product in connection with a reorganization or restructuring of the portfolio company. While we have developed general guidelines regarding when two or more products can invest in different parts of the same company's capital structure and created a process that we employ to handle those conflicts when they arise, our decision to permit the investments to occur in the first instance or our judgment on how to minimize the conflict could be challenged. If we fail to appropriately address those conflicts, it could negatively impact our reputation and ability to raise additional products and the willingness of counterparties to do business with us or result in potential litigation against us.
 Conflicts of interest may arise in our allocation of costs and expenses, and we are subject to increased regulatory scrutiny and uncertainty with regard to those allocations.
 As an asset manager with multiple products, we regularly allocate costs and expenses among our products and between our products and us. Certain of those allocation determinations are inherently subjective and virtually all of them are subject to regulatory oversight. Allegations of, or investigation into, a potential improper expense allocation could cause reputational harm and a loss of investor confidence in our business. It could also result in regulatory lapses or penalties, as well as increased regulatory oversight of our business. In addition, any determination to allocate costs and expenses to us could negatively affect our net income, and ultimately decrease the value of our common stock and our dividends to our stockholders. Similar considerations arise when allocating expenses to, or away from vehicles to which specified interests apply.
 We have a conflict of interest in determining whether certain costs and expenses are incurred in the course of operating our products, including the extent to which services provided by certain employees and associated costs, including compensation, are allocable to certain products. Our products generally pay or otherwise bear all legal, accounting, filing, and other expenses incurred in connection with organizing and establishing the products and the offering of interests in the products, including certain employee compensation. Such determinations often require subjective judgment and may result in us, rather than our products, bearing certain fees and expenses. In addition, our products generally pay all expenses related to the operation of the products and their investment activities, in certain cases subject to caps. We also determine, in our sole discretion, the appropriate allocation of investment-related expenses, including broken deal expenses and expenses more generally relating to a particular investment strategy, among our products, vehicles and accounts participating or that would have participated in such investments or that otherwise participate in the relevant investment strategy, as applicable. That often requires judgment and could result in one or more of our products bearing more or less of these expenses than other investors or potential investors in the relevant investments or a fund paying a disproportionate share, including some or all, of the broken deal expenses or other expenses incurred by potential investors. Any dispute regarding such allocations could lead to our products or us, as further described below, having to bear some portion of these costs as well as reputational risk. In addition, for products that do not pay or otherwise bear the costs and expenses described above because of the application of caps or otherwise, such amounts may be borne by us, which will reduce the amount of net fee income we receive for providing advisory services to the products. For example, our Business Services Platform provides strategic services to Partner Managers. Certain expenses associated with the Business Services Platform ("BSP Expenses") are allocated among, and payable by, each of the flagship GP minority equity investment products; however, co-investment and similar vehicles sponsored and/or managed by us do not bear any portion of BSP Expenses. Those GP Strategic Capital products are generally allocated an amount equal to their pro rata allocation of BSP Expenses based on the relative number of Partner Managers in which investments are held from time to time by each of those products; provided that the amount of BSP Expenses borne by a particular fund is subject to certain floors and/or caps specified in its respective governing documents.
 We are required to bear any BSP Expenses allocated to a product that exceeds the product's cap on those expenses. In addition, in certain instances, we expect to determine not to allocate or charge certain BSP Expenses to any product, in response to regulatory, investor relations, governance or other applicable considerations and determine instead for those BSP Expenses to be borne by us. Any such determination could have the effect of materially reducing the reimbursement payments received by

 us with respect to the Business Services Platform or result in losses attributable to certain activities thereof. The allocation methodology for allocating BSP Expenses and other similar expenses is complex and subject to interpretation. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any conflict arising from these allocations of expenses will be resolved in a manner responsive to the interests of all of our clients, which could damage our reputation.
 The activities of the Business Services Platform and the allocation of BSP Expenses have in the past been subject to an SEC order. These and other expense allocation practices could in the future be subject to regulatory scrutiny.
 Potential conflicts of interest in allocation among Blue Owl, our products and our investment professionals.
 Certain of our products may have overlapping investment objectives with Blue Owl, and conflicts may arise with respect to our decisions regarding how to allocate investment opportunities amongst our products or between Blue Owl and our products. We have provided and expect to continue to provide funds to support new product and strategy launches to enable our products to achieve a level of scale and profitability. We have used, and expect to continue to use, our balance sheet capital to warehouse seed investments in our products pending the contribution of committed capital by the investors in such products and/or to extend bridge loans to our products, which may decrease the liquidity available for other parts of our business. If new strategies or products do not develop as anticipated or our balance sheet assets cease to provide adequate liquidity, we may be forced to realize losses or become limited in our ability to seed new products or strategies or support existing ones as currently contemplated.
 Furthermore, our investment professionals or entities controlled by them may make similar investments or loans to new products or third party investment opportunities, including in connection with their personal or family office investment activities. These activities may result in actual or perceived conflicts of interest. Although we have adopted personal trading policies and procedures that are designed to ensure that, in such circumstances, Blue Owl or our products, as the case may be, has first priority in investment opportunities that align with its investment objectives, and expect these policies and procedures to continue to evolve as Blue Owl's business evolves, those policies and procedures may not eliminate all potential conflicts.
 Existing and future relationships between or among our Partner Managers, our products and their investors could give rise to actual or perceived conflicts of interest.
 Certain of our GP Strategic Capital products' Partner Managers directly or through their investment funds, own securities in Blue Owl or its subsidiaries. In addition, certain GP Strategic Capital products own securities in Blue Owl or its subsidiaries and may have different interests, including different investment horizons, than Blue Owl. Any decision with respect to holding or disposing of any such products' interests in Blue Owl will be determined by the applicable investment manager in a manner consistent with its duties to the product. Because those decisions will be made independent from consideration of Blue Owl's interests, they may, due to a range of factors, conflict with the interest of Blue Owl or its stockholders.
 GP Strategic Capital products hold minority, noncontrolling interests in a broad range of Partner Managers. Those Partner Managers may, from time to time, directly or through their funds, enter into transactions or other contractual arrangements with us or our products outside of the GP minority stakes strategy, including our private funds, BDCs and Real Assets products, or between or among one another in the ordinary course of business, which may result in additional conflicts of interest. For example, in 2024 Blue Owl agreed to acquire Partner Managers in which certain of our GP Strategic Capital products held, directly or indirectly, minority, non-controlling interests, in connection with which we implemented procedures to minimize or eliminate any conflicts. None of those transactions or other contractual arrangements are believed to be material to our operations or performance but future transactions may be material.
 Portfolio companies of products managed by our Partner Managers may also be borrowers under debt facilities or instruments owned, arranged or managed by our products. In its capacity as agent or lender under such facilities or instruments, a fund is required to act in the best interests of its stockholders or investors. In certain circumstances, one of our products may be required to take actions that may be adverse to the investments owned by funds managed by Partner Managers, which could adversely affect our relationships with the Partner Managers, or potentially impact the value of a GP Strategic Capital product's investment in such Partner Manager.
 From time to time, companies in which our products or products managed by our Partner Managers have invested or may invest may enter into sale-leaseback transactions with, or otherwise become tenants of, our Real Assets products. These arrangements could result in our products or products managed by our Partner Managers being creditors to, or equity owners of, such companies at the same time as those companies are tenants of our Real Assets products. If such a company were to encounter financial difficulty or default on its obligations as a borrower, our product or a product managed by a Partner Manager, could be

 required to take actions that may be adverse to those of our Real Assets products in enforcing its rights under the relevant facilities or agreements, or vice versa.
 Investments in portfolio companies connected to other business relationships may cause us to take different actions with respect to such investment than would have otherwise occurred had the portfolio company had no other business relationship with us or our products. Even if the foregoing relationships and transactions do not create actual conflicts, the perception of conflicts in the press or the financial community generally could create negative publicity with respect to Blue Owl, which could adversely affect the relationships of with our product investors.
 Conflicts related to our lack of information barriers.
 Our products, investment platforms and investment professionals regularly obtain non-public information regarding target companies and other investment opportunities. Since we do not currently maintain permanent information barriers among our businesses, we generally impute non-public information received by one investment team to all other investment professionals, including all of the personnel who make investment decisions for our products. In the event that any of our products or people obtain confidential or material non-public information, we and our products may be restricted in acquiring or disposing of investments. Notwithstanding the maintenance of restricted securities lists and other internal controls, the internal controls relating to the management of material non-public information could fail and result in us, or one of our people, buying or selling a security while deemed to be in possession of material non-public information. Inadvertent trading on material non-public information could negatively impact our reputation, result in the imposition of regulatory or financial sanctions and, consequently, negatively impact our ability to provide investment management services to our products and clients. These risks are heightened by the existence of our public equity products, which may limit the products' investment opportunities or ability to dispose of investments. In limited circumstances, we may put in place temporary information barriers to restrict the transfer of non-public information, which limit our products' abilities to benefit from Blue Owl expertise and such temporary information barriers could be breached, resulting in the same restrictions on such products' investment activities. In certain instances, Blue Owl may decline to receive material nonpublic information from an investment or prospective investment, even if such material nonpublic information would be beneficial to a Blue Owl product, because the receipt of such material non-public information may inhibit the investment activities of Blue Owl and/or one or more other Blue Owl products and foregoing such material nonpublic information may negatively impact the potential receiving Blue Owl products and/or one or more of its portfolio investments.
 Further, in the future, we could be required by certain regulations, or decide that it is advisable, to establish permanent information barriers, which would impair our ability to operate as an integrated platform, limit management's ability to manage our investments and reduce potential synergies across our businesses. The establishment of information barriers may also lead to operational disruptions and result in restructuring costs, including costs related to hiring additional personnel as existing investment professionals are allocated to either side of a barrier.
 Additional and unpredictable conflicts of interests may rise in the future.
 In addition to the conflicts outlined above, we may experience conflicts of interest in connection with the management of our business affairs relating to and arising from a number of matters, including the amounts paid to us by our products; services that may be provided by us and our affiliates to investments in which our products invest (including the determination of whether or not to charge fees to our investments for our provision of such services); investments by our products and our other clients, subject to the limitations of the Investment Company Act; our formation of additional products; differing recommendations given by us to different clients; and our use of information gained from a product's investments used to inform investments by other clients, subject to applicable law. In resolving these conflicts of interest, we may favor our products' interests or investors' interests over the interests of our stockholders.
 Our GP Strategic Capital products hold and make investments in Partner Managers and there may be provisions within our arrangements with Partner Managers that could affect our right to receive or share information or cause us to sell our interests in the Partner Manager.
 The terms of our GP Strategic Capital products' investments in Partner Managers generally include provisions relating to competitors of the Partner Managers, access to information about the Partner Managers and their business, and affirmative and negative confidentiality obligations regarding the Partner Managers. While we have implemented information control procedures with restrictions regarding the sharing of a Partner Manager's confidential information, such procedures may not reduce a Partner Manager's concern over the sharing of confidential and competitively sensitive information. Certain Partner Managers that are engaged in managing funds focused on similar businesses as our other product lines may consider Blue Owl

 to be a competitor with respect to their business and may seek to invoke remedies available to them under the investment agreements or pursue other remedies. Potential remedies available to them under the investment agreements, as applicable, include limiting the rights of our products to receive confidential information from the Partner Manager regarding its business, requiring us to sequester confidential information received from the Partner Manager, or requiring us to sell our interests in the Partner Manager for fair value as determined under the relevant investment agreement. A forced sale of a Partner Manager interest may reduce the amount of fees we receive with respect to the applicable GP Strategic Capital product, and any reduction in information may impede our ability to supervise our products' investments. Further, the affiliation may hinder the GP Strategic Capital products' ability to make future investments in Partner Managers who are in the same space and who may consider Blue Owl a competitor, including follow-on investments in existing Partner Managers and investments with new Partner Managers.
 The operations of our business and related transactions may affect our reputation and relationship with our Partner Managers.
 We are reliant upon our strong relationships with our Partner Managers for the continued growth and development of business. Due to the number of Partner Managers with which we have relationships, we may compete with existing or prospective Partner Managers, which could negatively impact our ability to attract new Partner Managers to our products who may seek relationships with non-competitors over concerns of sharing information with competitors or other potential conflicts, including the ability to exercise our fiduciary duties. Additionally, our investments in Partner Managers may affect our relationships with other sponsors that are key relationships for our Credit products, because of similar concerns around information sharing or other reasons. While we have implemented procedures to address any such conflict, such procedures may not reduce the perception that such conflicts exist and may make us a less attractive partner/investor.
 Our entitlement and that of certain Principals and employees to receive performance income from certain of our products may create an incentive for us to make more decisions, including speculative investments and determinations on behalf of our products, than would be the case in the absence of such performance income.
 Some of our products generate performance-based fees, including carried interest. With respect to Blue Owl GP Stakes I - V and their related co-investment vehicles, none of the carried interest will be allocated to us. We will generally be allocated 15% of the carried interest attributable to Blue Owl GP Stakes VI and future GP Strategic Capital products as well as 15% of the carried interest in existing and future Real Assets and Credit products. If a new GP Strategic Capital product is formed to facilitate a secondary transaction with respect to any of Blue Owl GP Stakes I - V (which would include, without limitation, any continuation fund or other new product whose primary purpose is to acquire directly or indirectly all or a portion of the assets of or interests in Blue Owl GP Stakes I - V), any carried interest generated by such product will not be allocated to us, notwithstanding that such secondary vehicle is formed in the future. Performance revenues not allocated to us are allocated, in part, to certain Principals and employees of Blue Owl in vehicles not controlled by us. Carried interest and performance-based fees or allocations may create an incentive for us or our investment professionals to make more speculative or riskier investments and determinations, directly or indirectly on behalf of our products, or otherwise take or refrain from taking certain actions than it would otherwise make in the absence of such carried interest or performance-based fees or allocations. It may also create incentives to influence how we establish economic terms for future products. In addition, we may have an incentive to make exit determinations based on factors that maximize economics in favor of the persons entitled to performance-based fees relative to us and our non-participating stockholders. Our failure to appropriately address any actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest resulting from our entitlement to receive performance income from many of our products could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, which could materially and adversely affect our business in a number of ways, including limiting our ability to raise additional products, attract new clients or retain existing clients.
 Risks Related to Our Legal and Regulatory Environment
 Our business is subject to extensive domestic and foreign regulations that may subject us to significant costs and compliance requirements, and there can be no assurance that we will satisfactorily comply with such regulations.
 Our business, as well as the financial services industry generally, is subject to extensive regulation, including periodic examinations, by governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations or exchanges in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions in which we operate relating to, among other things, securities, antitrust, anti-money laundering, anti-bribery, tax and privacy. Each of the regulatory bodies with jurisdiction over us has regulatory powers dealing with many aspects of financial services, including the authority to grant, and in specific circumstances to cancel, permissions to carry on particular activities. In particular, the SEC increased emphasis on investment adviser and private fund regulation and proposed and adopted a number of new rules that would impose significant changes on investment advisers and their management of private funds in recent years. While the new Presidential administration and the current leadership of the SEC have indicated that they intend to

 modify or repeal certain regulations perceived as burdensome to private funds advisers, particularly those related to ESG investing and cybersecurity, new SEC rules could result in changes to our operations and could materially impact our products and/or their investments, including by causing us to incur additional expenses.
 We have expanded our business globally. Differences between the laws and rules governing our business in foreign jurisdictions compared to the United States result in inconsistent regulatory requirements that it may not be possible to fully reconcile in a cost-efficient manner across our business.
 As a public company, we are subject to the reporting, accounting and corporate governance requirements of the NYSE, the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act") and Section 619 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act") that apply to issuers of listed equity, which impose certain significant compliance requirements, costs and obligations upon us. The requirements of being a publicly listed company and ongoing compliance with these rules and regulations require a significant commitment of additional resources and management oversight, which increases our operating costs and could divert the attention of our management and personnel from other business concerns.
 The SEC oversees the activities of certain of our subsidiaries that are registered investment advisers under the Advisers Act and the activities of our BDCs that are regulated under the Investment Company Act.
 Investment Advisers Act of 1940
 The Advisers Act imposes specific restrictions on an investment adviser's ability to engage in principal and agency cross transactions. Our registered investment advisers are subject to additional requirements that cover, among other things, disclosure of information about our business to clients; maintenance of written policies and procedures; maintenance of extensive books and records; restrictions on the types of fees we may charge, including performance fees and carried interest; maintaining effective compliance programs; custody of client assets; client privacy; advertising; and proxy voting. Failure to comply with the obligations imposed by the Advisers Act could result in investigations, sanctions, fines, restrictions on the activities of us or our personnel and reputational damage.
 Under the Advisers Act, an investment adviser (whether or not registered under the Advisers Act) has fiduciary duties to its clients. The SEC has interpreted those duties to impose standards, requirements and limitations on, among other things, trading for proprietary, personal and client accounts; allocations of investment opportunities among clients; execution of transactions; and recommendations to clients.
 Investment Company Act
 Our subsidiaries are the advisers to our BDCs, which are subject to the rules and regulations under the Investment Company Act. Our BDCs are required to file periodic and annual reports with the SEC and may also be required to comply with the applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Furthermore, advisers to our BDCs have a fiduciary duty under the Investment Company Act not to charge excessive compensation, and the Investment Company Act grants BDC stockholders a direct private right of action against investment advisers to seek redress for alleged violations of this fiduciary duty.
 While we exercise broad discretion over the day-to-day management of our BDCs, each of our BDCs is also subject to oversight and management by a board of directors, a majority of whom are not "interested persons" as defined under the Investment Company Act. The responsibilities of each of our BDC's boards include, among other things, approving our advisory contract with the applicable BDC that we manage; approving certain service providers; monitoring transactions involving affiliates; and approving certain co-investment transactions. Additionally, each quarter, the applicable investment adviser, as the valuation designee, will provide the audit committee of each of our BDCs with a summary or description of material fair value matters that occurred in the prior quarter and on an annual basis, as well as a written assessment of the adequacy and effectiveness of its fair value process. The audit committee of each of our BDCs oversees the valuation designee and reports to the respective BDC's board of directors on any valuation matters requiring such board's attention. The advisory contracts with each of our BDCs may be terminated by the stockholders or directors of such BDC on not more than 60 days' notice, and are subject to annual renewal by each respective BDC's board of directors after an initial two-year term.
 Our BDCs are also prohibited from knowingly participating in certain transactions with their affiliates, except as permitted by the Investment Company Act and the Co-investment Exemptive Order. For additional details, see "—Conflicts of Interest—Conflicts of interest may arise in our allocation of capital and co-investment opportunities."

 The Dodd-Frank Act
 The Dodd-Frank Act authorizes federal regulatory agencies to review and, in certain cases, prohibit compensation arrangements at financial institutions that give employees incentives to engage in conduct deemed to encourage inappropriate risk-taking by covered financial institutions. In 2016, federal bank regulatory authorities and the SEC revised and re-proposed a rule that generally (1) prohibits incentive-based payment arrangements that are determined to encourage inappropriate risks by certain financial institutions by providing excessive compensation or that could lead to material financial loss and (2) requires those financial institutions to disclose information concerning incentive-based compensation arrangements to the appropriate federal regulator. The Dodd-Frank Act also directs the SEC to adopt a rule that requires public companies to adopt and disclose policies requiring, in the event the company is required to issue an accounting restatement, the contingent repayment of obligations of related incentive compensation from current and former executive officers. The SEC has proposed but not yet adopted such rule. To the extent the aforementioned rules are adopted, our ability to recruit and retain investment professionals and senior management executives could be limited.
 Under the Dodd-Frank Act, a 10 voting-member Financial Stability Oversight Council ("FSOC") has the authority to review the activities of certain nonbank financial firms engaged in financial activities and designate them as systemically important financial institutions ("SIFI"), evaluating, among other things, evaluating the impact of the distress of the financial firm on the stability of the U.S. economy. Currently, there are no non-bank financial companies with a non-bank SIFI designation. The FSOC has, however, designated certain non-bank financial companies as SIFIs in the past, and additional non-bank financial companies, which may include large asset management companies such as us, may be designated as SIFIs in the future. In November 2023, FSOC adopted amendments to its guidance regarding procedures for designating non-bank financial companies as SIFIs which eliminated the prior guidance's prioritization of an "activities-based" approach for identifying, assessing and addressing potential risks to financial stability. Under the previous guidance's "activities-based" approach, FSOC indicated that it would primarily focus on regulating activities that pose systemic risk rather than focusing on individual firm-specific determinations. The elimination of an "activities-based" approach over designation of an individual firm as a non-bank SIFI may increase the likelihood of FSOC designating one or more firms as a non-bank SIFI. If we were designated as such, it would result in increased regulation of our businesses, including the imposition of capital, leverage, liquidity and risk management standards, credit exposure reporting and concentration limits, enhanced public disclosures, restrictions on acquisitions and annual stress tests by the Federal Reserve. Requirements such as these, which were designed to regulate banking institutions, would likely need to be modified to be applicable to an asset manager, although no proposals have been made indicating how such measures would be adapted for asset managers.
 Other Securities Laws
 In addition, we regularly rely on exemptions from various requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Commodity Exchange Act, state securities (blue sky) laws and foreign securities laws. Those exemptions are sometimes highly complex and may in certain circumstances depend on compliance by third parties whom we do not control. The revocation, challenge or unavailability of these exemptions could increase our cost of doing business or subject us to regulatory action or third-party claims, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. For example, Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act includes "bad actor" disqualification provisions that ban an issuer from offering or selling securities pursuant to the safe harbor in Rule 506 if the issuer, or any other "covered person," is the subject of a criminal, regulatory or court order or other "disqualifying event" under the rule which has not been waived by the SEC. The definition of a "covered person" under the rule includes an issuer's directors, general partners, managing members and executive officers and promoters and persons compensated for soliciting investors in the offering. Accordingly, our ability to rely on Rule 506 to offer or sell our products and therefore a significant portion of our business would be impaired if we or any "covered person" is the subject of a disqualifying event under the rule and we are unable to obtain a waiver or, in certain circumstances, terminate our involvement with such "covered person."
 Compliance with existing and new regulations subjects us to significant costs. Any changes or other developments in the regulatory framework applicable to our business and changes to formerly accepted industry practices, may impose additional costs on us, require the attention of our senior management or limit the manner in which we conduct our business. We may be adversely affected by changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and rules by these governmental authorities and self-regulatory organizations. Additional legislation or regulations, increasing global regulatory oversight of fundraising activities, changes in rules promulgated by self-regulatory organizations or exchanges or changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and rules, either in the United States or elsewhere, may directly affect our mode of operation and profitability. Moreover, our failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, including labor and employment laws, could result in fines, censure, suspensions of personnel or other sanctions, including revocation of the registration of our relevant subsidiaries as investment advisers or our broker-dealer affiliate as a registered broker-dealer.

 Even if a sanction is imposed against us, one of our subsidiaries or our affiliates or our personnel by a regulator for a small monetary amount, the costs incurred in responding to such matters could be material. The adverse publicity related to the sanction could harm our reputation, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, making it harder for us to raise new and successor products and discouraging others from doing business with us or accepting investments from our products.
 United Kingdom Exit from the European Union ("EU")
 On January 31, 2020, the UK formally withdrew from the European Union ("Brexit").
 As a result of the onshoring of EU legislation in the UK, UK firms are currently subject to many of the same rules and regulations as prior to Brexit. Since Brexit, UK firms in the financial sector have more limited access to the EU market than prior to Brexit and EU firms similarly have more limited access to the UK, owing to the loss of passporting rights under applicable EU and UK legislation. Alternative arrangements and structures may allow for the provision of cross-border marketing and services between the EU and UK, but these are subject to legal uncertainty and the risk that further legislative and regulatory restrictions could be imposed in the future.
 There remains considerable uncertainty as to the nature of the UK's future relationships with the EU as well as the extent to which the UK may elect to diverge over time from the current EU-influenced regime, creating continuing uncertainty as to the full extent to which our business could be adversely affected. The legal, political and economic uncertainty and disruption generally resulting from Brexit may adversely affect both EU- and UK-based businesses. Brexit has already led to disruptions in trade as businesses attempt to adapt cross-border procedures and rules applicable in the UK and in the EU to their activities, products, customers, and suppliers. Continuing uncertainty and the prospect of further disruption may result in an economic slowdown and/or a deteriorating business environment in the UK and in one or more EU Member States.
 Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive ("AIFMD")
 The AIFMD regulates the activities of certain private fund managers undertaking fund management activities or marketing fund interests to investors in the European Economic Area ("EEA") and the UK, respectively.
 To the extent our products are actively marketed to investors domiciled or having their registered office in the EEA or the UK: (i) those products and certain Blue Owl entities will be subject to certain reporting, disclosure and other compliance obligations under the AIFMD, which will result in those products incurring additional costs and expenses; (ii) those products and certain Blue Owl entities may become subject to additional regulatory or compliance obligations arising under national law in certain EEA jurisdictions or the UK, which would result in those products incurring additional costs and expenses or may otherwise affect the management and operation of those products; (iii) certain Blue Owl entities will be required to make detailed information relating to certain products and their investments available to regulators and third parties; and (iv) the AIFMD will also restrict certain activities of those products in relation to EEA or UK portfolio companies, including, in some circumstances, a product's ability to recapitalize, refinance or potentially restructure a portfolio company within the first two years of ownership, which may in turn affect operations of said products generally. In addition, it is possible that some jurisdictions will elect to restrict or prohibit the marketing of non-EEA products to investors based in EEA jurisdictions, which may make it more difficult for certain products to raise its targeted amount of Commitments.
 In relation to certain products, we have engaged or plan to engage a third party to provide alternative investment fund manager (an "AIFM") services to said products(s). This third party AIFM provides similar services to other sponsors and products. As a result, the successful operation of the relevant products will depend in part on the third party's ability to provide these services. The loss or reduction of the services provided by the third party could adversely affect the ongoing operation of the relevant products. The third party is appointed as the AIFM for other products, and may need to devote substantial amounts of its time and attention to the activities of such other products, which may cause conflicts of interest to arise. In addition, certain changes in the regulatory status of the third party or circumstances relating to such other entities which have engaged the services of the third party may have an adverse effect on the relevant product. Although we will have the ability to replace the third party, the third party's breach of the applicable agreements or the failure of the third party to make decisions, perform its services, discharge its obligations, deal with regulatory authorities or comply with laws, rules and regulations affecting the relevant product, in a proper manner, or to act in ways that are in the relevant product's best interest could result in material adverse consequences for the relevant product. Should the third party fail to perform its obligations under any applicable agreements between it and the Blue Owl entity it is engaged by, a replacement AIFM may be required, and such replacement AIFM may be subject to approval by the relevant regulatory authority. We may not be able to replace the AIFM, or do so on a timely basis.

 Alternatively, if we are able to find a replacement service provider to act as AIFM, the replacement service provider may demand terms that are unfavorable to the relevant product.
 The European Union is implementing a Directive to amend AIFMD ("AIFMD II").
 AIFMD II will impose obligations including: (i) minimum substance considerations that EU regulators will need to take into account during the AIFM authorization process; (ii) enhanced requirements around delegation, including additional reporting requirements in relation to delegation arrangements; (iii) new requirements applying to AIFMs managing products that originate loans; (iv) increased investor pre-contractual disclosure requirements, notably around fees and charges; and (v) a prohibition on non-EU AIFMs and AIFs established in jurisdictions identified as "high risk" countries under the European Anti-Money Laundering Directive (as amended) or the revised EU list of non-cooperative tax jurisdictions. The final text of AIFMD II was published in the Official Journal of the European Union in March 2024, with AIFMD II due to be implemented by EU Member States from 2026. It is possible that AIFMD II may require additional costs, expenses and/or resources, as well as restricting or prohibiting certain activities, including in relation to loan-originating products and managers or products established in jurisdictions outside the EU identified as having anti-money laundering and/or tax failings.
 In some circumstances, certain Blue Owl entities may be considered non-EEA managers under AIFMD. Non-EEA managers are expected to be subject to reporting and disclosure requirements under AIFMD II as well as the prohibition in respect of "high risk" jurisdictions for anti-money laundering and tax purposes. The application of other AIFMD II requirements may depend on how far individual Member States elect to apply AIFMD II to non-EEA managers, and whether any Blue Owl entities market products into the EEA. This may affect certain Blue Owl products from implementing their strategy, and/or lead to increased legal and compliance costs, in one or more EEA Member States.
 Heightened scrutiny of the financial services industry by regulators may materially and adversely affect our business.
 The financial services industry has been the subject of heightened scrutiny by regulators around the globe. In particular, the SEC and its staff have focused more narrowly on issues relevant to alternative asset management firms, including by forming specialized units devoted to examining such firms and, in certain cases, bringing enforcement actions against the firms, their principals and employees. In recent periods there have been a number of enforcement actions within the industry, and it is expected that the SEC will continue to pursue enforcement actions against asset managers. This enforcement activity has caused, and could further cause us to reevaluate certain practices and adjust our compliance control function as necessary and appropriate.
 Regulators are also increasing scrutiny and considering regulation of the use of technologies. We cannot predict what, if any, actions may be taken, but such regulation could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
 The SEC's recent list of examination priorities for investment advisers includes such items as investment advisers' adherence to fiduciary standards of conduct and effectiveness of advisers' compliance programs, as well as specific priority areas for advisers to private funds, including accuracy of calculations and allocations of private fund fees and expense; disclosure of conflicts of interests and risks, and adequacy of policies and procedures; and compliance with newly adopted SEC rules, including amendments to Form PF (see "—Conflicts of Interest—Conflicts of interest may arise in our allocation of capital and co-investment opportunities"). Many firms have received inquiries during examinations or directly from the SEC's Division of Enforcement regarding various transparency-related topics, including the acceleration of monitoring fees, the allocation of broken-deal expenses, outside business activities of firm principals and employees, group purchasing arrangements, climate-related disclosures and general conflicts of interest disclosures. While we believe we have made appropriate and timely disclosures regarding the foregoing, the SEC staff may disagree.
 Further, the SEC has highlighted BDC board oversight and valuation practices as one of its areas of focus in investment adviser examinations and has instituted enforcement actions against advisers for misleading investors about valuation. If the SEC were to investigate and find errors in a BDC board's methodologies or procedures, we and/or members of any such BDC's board and management could be subject to penalties and fines, which could harm our reputation and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
 Our provision of asset management services to the insurance industry subjects us to a variety of risks and uncertainties.
 In July 2024, we acquired KAM and established Blue Owl Insurance Solutions ("Insurance Solutions"). This platform offers insurance-focused strategies across a wide range of asset classes and risk spectrum, including asset-backed finance, commercial real estate lending, private corporate credit and structured products. Insurance Solutions currently manages assets for a number

 of insurance and reinsurance companies and their affiliates pursuant to several investment management agreements and has developed, and may continue to develop, other capital-efficient products for insurance and reinsurance companies.
 The growth and performance of our Insurance Solutions platform will depend on our ability to obtain and maintain asset management arrangements and other investment partnerships with current and new insurance and/or reinsurance company clients. As we only recently began offering products focused on insurance and reinsurance company client balance sheets through Insurance Solutions as a result of our acquisition of KAM in July 2024, there is no assurance of whether or when we will be able to achieve the growth we expect, if at all. If we fail to deliver high-quality, high-performing products and strategies that help our insurance and reinsurance company clients meet long-term policyholder obligations, we may not be successful in retaining existing investment partnerships, developing new investment partnerships or originating or selling capital-efficient assets or products and such failure may have a material adverse effect on the growth of our Insurance Solutions platform, and on our overall business, results and financial condition.
 The U.S. and non-U.S. insurance and reinsurance industries are subject to significant regulatory oversight. Regulatory authorities in many relevant jurisdictions have broad regulatory (including through certain regulatory support organizations), administrative, and in some cases discretionary, authority with respect to insurance and reinsurance companies and/or their investment advisors, which may include, among other things, the investments insurance and reinsurance companies may acquire and hold, marketing practices, affiliate transactions, reserve requirements and capital adequacy. These requirements are primarily concerned with the protection of policyholders, and regulatory authorities often have wide discretion in applying the relevant restrictions and regulations to insurance and reinsurance companies, which may indirectly affect us as a result of our relationships with our insurance and reinsurance company clients. We may be the target or subject of, or may have indemnification obligations related to, litigation (including class action litigation by policyholders), enforcement investigations or regulatory scrutiny. Regulators and other authorities generally have the power to bring administrative or judicial proceedings against insurance and/or reinsurance companies, which could result in, among other things, suspension or revocation of licenses, cease-and-desist orders, fines, civil penalties, criminal penalties or other disciplinary action. To the extent we are involved in such regulatory actions, our reputation could be harmed, we may become liable for indemnification obligations and we could potentially be subject to enforcement actions, fines and penalties.
 Insurance and reinsurance regulatory authorities and regulatory support organizations in the U.S. and outside the U.S. have increased scrutiny of alternative asset managers' involvement in the insurance and reinsurance industries, including with respect to the ownership by such managers or their affiliated funds of, and the management of assets on behalf of, insurance companies. For example, insurance regulators, including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") — the U.S. standard-setting and regulatory support organization for the insurance industry — have increasingly focused on the terms and structure of investment management agreements, including whether they are at arms' length, establish a control relationship with the insurance company, grant the asset manager excessive authority or oversight over the investment strategy of the insurance company or provide for management fees that are not fair and reasonable or termination provisions that make it difficult or costly for the insurer to terminate the agreement. Regulators have also increasingly focused on the risk profile of certain investments held by insurance and reinsurance companies (including, without limitation, all or certain tranches of collateralized loan obligations and other structured securities), appropriateness of investment ratings and potential conflicts of interest, including affiliated investments, and potential misalignment of incentives and any potential risks from these and other aspects of an insurance or reinsurance company's relationship with alternative asset managers that may impact the insurance or reinsurance company's risk profile. This enhanced scrutiny may increase the risk of regulatory actions against us and could result in new or amended regulations that limit our ability, or make it more burdensome or costly, to enter into new investment management agreements with insurance or reinsurance companies and thereby grow our insurance strategy. Some of the arrangements we have or will develop with insurance and reinsurance companies involve complex U.S. and non-U.S. tax structures for which no clear precedent or authority may be available. Such structures may be subject to potential regulatory, legislative, judicial or administrative change, scrutiny or differing interpretations and any adverse regulatory, legislative, judicial or administrative changes, scrutiny or interpretations may result in substantial costs to insurance or reinsurance companies or us.
 Insurance company investment portfolios are often subject to internal and regulatory requirements governing the categories and ratings of investment products and assets they may acquire and hold. Many of the insurance-focused strategies we originate or develop for, or other assets or investments we include in, insurance company portfolios will be rated and a ratings downgrade or any other negative action by a rating agency or the NAIC's Securities Valuation Office ("SVO"), as applicable, with respect to such products, assets or investments could make them less attractive and limit our ability to invest or deploy capital on behalf of insurers. Furthermore, insurance and reinsurance companies are subject to certain minimum capital and surplus requirements that vary by the jurisdiction where the insurance or reinsurance company is domiciled and are generally subject to change over time. In the United States, our insurance company clients are subject to risk-based capital ("RBC") standards and other

 minimum capital and surplus requirements imposed by state laws. The RBC standards are based upon the Risk-Based Capital for Insurers Model Act promulgated by the NAIC, as adopted by applicable clients' insurance regulators. Our Bermuda reinsurance company clients are subject to Bermuda Solvency Capital Requirements standards and other minimum capital and surplus requirements imposed by the Bermuda Monetary Authority.
 New statutory accounting guidance or changes or clarifications in interpretations of existing guidance may adversely impact our ability to originate, or invest in, such assets on behalf of our insurance and reinsurance company clients or cause such clients to increase their required capital in respect of such assets, thus making such assets less attractive to insurers, which may adversely affect our business. Certain proposals or exposure drafts released by insurance regulatory authorities, including the NAIC or the SVO, may result in changes to the risk-based capital treatment and/or ratings or re-ratings processes of certain assets or investments that are, or may be, held by our insurance company clients.
 Regulations governing the operations of certain of our products affect their ability to raise, and the way in which the applicable products raise, additional capital.
 Our BDCs have elected to be regulated as business development companies under the Investment Company Act. Many of the regulations governing business development companies restrict, among other things, the amount of leverage they can incur and co-investments and other transactions with other entities within Blue Owl. Certain of our products may be restricted from engaging in transactions with our BDCs and their subsidiaries. As BDCs regulated under the Investment Company Act, our BDCs may issue debt securities or preferred stock and borrow money from banks or other financial institutions, which we refer to collectively as "senior securities," up to the maximum amount permitted by the Investment Company Act.
 BDCs are not generally able to issue and sell their common stock at a price below net asset value per share. BDCs may, however, issue and sell their common stock, or warrants, options or rights to acquire such common stock, at a price below the then-current net asset value of such common stock if (1) the applicable BDC's board of directors determines that such sale is in the BDC's best interests and the best interests of the BDC's stockholders, and (2) the applicable BDC's stockholders have approved, within the 12 months preceding any such sale, a policy and practice of making such sales. In any such case, the price at which the securities of BDCs are to be issued and sold may not be less than a price which, in the determination of the applicable board of directors, closely approximates the market value of such securities.
 In addition, as BDCs that are subject to regulations under the Investment Company Act, our BDCs are currently permitted to incur indebtedness or issue senior securities only in amounts such that their asset coverage ratio equals at least 150% after each such issuance, except in the instance of OBDC II, which is required to maintain an asset coverage ratio of at least 200%. Our BDCs' ability to pay dividends will be restricted if such BDC's asset coverage ratio falls below the required asset coverage ratio and any amounts that it uses to service its indebtedness are not available for dividends to its common stockholders. Any of the foregoing circumstances could have a material adverse effect on our BDCs, and as a result, on us.
 For U.S. federal income tax purposes, our BDCs have elected to be treated as RICs under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and one or more products that we manage includes in its structure a REIT. To maintain their status as RICs or REITs, each such vehicle must meet, among other things, certain source of income, asset and annual distribution requirements. Qualification as a REIT also depends on a REIT's ability to meet various tax requirements, which relate to organizational structure, diversity of stock ownership, and certain restrictions with regard to the nature of their assets and the sources of their income. Each of our REITs and RICs (including our BDCs) is required to generally distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income to maintain its RIC or REIT status, as applicable. If a REIT or a RIC fails to qualify as a REIT or RIC in any taxable year, it will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax at regular corporate rates, and applicable state and local taxes, which would reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to its investors. If any of our BDCs or REITs fail to maintain RIC or REIT, as applicable, tax treatment for any reason and are subject to U.S. federal income tax at corporate rates, the resulting taxes could substantially reduce their net assets, which could have a material adverse effect on our BDCs, and as a result, on the management fees we may earn from our BDCs and REITs.
 We, our products and our products' portfolio companies are subject to increasing scrutiny from certain investors, third party assessors, our stockholders and other stakeholders with respect to ESG-related topics.
 We, our products and our products' portfolio companies face increasing scrutiny from certain investors, third party assessors that measure companies' ESG performance, our stockholders and other stakeholders related to ESG-related topics, including in relation to diversity and inclusion, human rights, environmental stewardship, support for local communities, corporate governance and transparency. For example, we, our products and our products' portfolio companies risk damage to our brands and reputations if we or they do not act (or are perceived to not act) responsibly either with respect to responsible investing

 processes or ESG-related practices. Adverse incidents related to ESG practices could impact the value of our brand, the brand of our products or our products' portfolio companies, or the cost of our or their operations and relationships with investors, all of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Further, there can be no assurance that any of our ESG initiatives or commitments will meet the standards or expectations of investors or other stakeholders. There can be no assurance that we will be able to accomplish our goals related to responsible investing or ESG practices, as statements regarding our ESG and responsible investing commitments and priorities reflect our current estimates, plans and/or aspirations and are not guarantees that we will be able to achieve them within the timelines we announce or at all. Additionally, we are permitted to determine that it is not feasible or practical to implement or complete certain aspects of our responsible investing program or ESG initiatives based on cost, timing or other considerations.
 In recent years, certain investors have placed increasing importance on policies and practices related to responsible investing and ESG for the products to which they commit capital and investors may decide not to commit capital to future fundraises based on their assessment of our approach to and consideration of ESG-related issues or risks. Similarly, a variety of organizations measure the performance of companies on ESG topics, and the results of these assessments are widely publicized. If our responsible investing or ESG-related practices or ratings do not meet the standards set by such investors or organizations, or if we receive a negative rating or assessment from any such organization, or if we fail, or are perceived to fail, to demonstrate progress toward our ESG priorities and initiatives, they may choose not to invest in our products or common stock, and we may face reputational damage. Similarly, it is expected that investor and/or stockholder demands will require us to spend additional resources and place increasing importance on business relevant ESG factors in our review of prospective investments and management of existing ones. Devoting additional resources to our responsible investing or ESG-related practices could increase the amount of expenses we or our investments are required to bear. For example, collecting, measuring, and reporting ESG information and metrics can be costly, difficult and time consuming, is subject to evolving reporting standards, and can present numerous operational, reputational, financial, legal and other risks. To the extent our access to capital from investors focused on ESG ratings or ESG-related matters is impaired, we may not be able to maintain or increase the size of our existing products or raise sufficient capital for new products, which may adversely affect our revenues. Further, growing interest on the part of investors and regulators in ESG-related topics and themes and increased demand for, and scrutiny of, ESG-related disclosure by asset managers, have also increased the risk that asset managers could be perceived as, or accused of, making inaccurate or misleading statements regarding the ESG-related investment strategies of their and their funds' responsible investing or ESG-related efforts or initiatives, or "greenwashing." This risk may also materialize where ESG-related statements and/or disclosures made by a product's portfolio companies are materially inconsistent with our ESG-related statements or disclosures, including those made on a voluntary basis or pursuant to any applicable regulation, such as Regulation EU 2019/2088 on sustainability-related disclosures in the financial services sector (the "SFDR") or the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive ("CSRD"). Such perception or accusation could damage our reputation, result in litigation or regulatory actions and adversely impact our ability to raise capital.
 At the same time, various stakeholders may have differing approaches to responsible investing activities or divergent views on the consideration of ESG topics, including in the countries in which Blue Owl operates and invests, as well as in the states and localities where Blue Owl serves public sector clients. These differing views increase the risk that any action or lack thereof with respect to our consideration of responsible investing or ESG-related practices will be perceived negatively. A growing number of states have enacted or proposed "anti-ESG" policies, legislation, issued related legal opinions and engaged in related litigation. For example: (i) boycott bills target financial institutions that "boycott" or "discriminate against" companies in certain industries (e.g., energy and mining) and prohibit state entities from doing business with such institutions and/or investing the state's assets (including pension plan assets) through such institutions and (ii) ESG investment prohibitions require that state entities or managers/administrators of state investments make investments based solely on pecuniary factors without consideration of ESG factors. If investors subject to such legislation view our products' responsible investing or ESG practices as being in contradiction of such "anti-ESG" policies, legislation or legal opinions, such investors may not invest in our products, our ability to maintain the size of our products could be impaired, and/or it could negatively affect the results of our operations, cash flow, or price of our common stock. Further, asset managers have been subject to recent scrutiny related to ESG-focused industry working groups, initiatives and associations, including organizations advancing action to address climate change or climate-related risk. In addition, state attorneys general, among others, have asserted that the Supreme Court's decision striking down race-based affirmative action in higher education in June 2023 should be analogized to private employment matters and private contract matters. Cases alleging discrimination based on similar arguments have been filed since that decision, with scrutiny of certain corporate DEI practices increasing throughout 2024. Additionally, in January 2025, the new Presidential administration signed a number of executive orders focused on DEI (the "Executive Orders"), which include a broad mandate to eliminate federal DEI programs and a caution to the private sector to end what may be viewed as illegal DEI discrimination and preferences. The Executive Orders also indicate upcoming compliance investigations of private entities, including publicly traded companies, and changes to federal contracting regulations. If we do not successfully manage expectations across these varied stakeholder interests, it could erode stakeholder trust, impact our reputation, and/or constrain

 our investment and fundraising opportunities. Such scrutiny of both ESG and DEI related practices could expose us to the risk of investigations or challenges by federal or state authorities, result in reputational harm and/or discourage certain investors from investing in our products.
 We are subject to increasing scrutiny from regulators with respect to ESG-related issues and the regulatory disclosure landscape surrounding related topics continues to evolve.
 Responsible investing, ESG practices and ESG-related disclosures have been the subject of increased focus by certain regulators, and regulatory initiatives related to ESG-specific topics that are applicable to us, our products and our products' portfolio companies could adversely affect our business. There has been a growing regulatory interest across jurisdictions in improving transparency regarding the definition, measurement and disclosure of ESG factors in order to allow investors to validate and better understand sustainability claims, including in the United States, the European Union and the United Kingdom.
 For example, in the United States, in March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules intended to enhance and standardize climate-related disclosures; however, these rules are stayed pending the outcome of consolidated legal challenges in the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals. Further, the SEC sometimes reviews compliance with ESG commitments in examinations, and it has taken enforcement actions against registered investment advisers for not establishing adequate or consistently implementing ESG policies and procedures to meet ESG commitments to investors.
 In addition, in October 2023, California enacted legislation that will ultimately require certain companies that (i) do business in California to publicly disclose their Scopes 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas emissions, with third party assurance of such data, and issue public reports on their climate-related financial risk and related mitigation measures and (ii) operate in California and make certain climate-related claims to provide enhanced disclosures around the achievement of climate-related claims, including the use of voluntary carbon credits to achieve such claims. From a European perspective, the European Union has adopted legislation aimed at increasing transparency for investors of sustainability-related policies, processes, performance and commitments which apply to certain of our products, including, without limitation: (a) the SFDR, for which most rules took effect beginning on March 10, 2021 and (b) Regulation (EU) 2020/852 on the establishment of a framework to facilitate sustainable investment, and amending the SFDR. Further, the European Commission is currently considering whether to propose further changes or amendments to the SFDR and the associated regulatory framework. Relatedly, the European Securities and Markets Authority ("ESMA") has identified promoting transparency through effective sustainability disclosures and addressing greenwashing as one of its key priorities per ESMA's sustainable finance roadmap and strategy. ESMA has also introduced guidelines on funds with ESG, impact, transition or sustainability-related terms in their names.
 There are still some uncertainties regarding the operation of some of these requirements and how they might evolve, and an established market practice is still being developed in certain cases, which can lead to diverging implementation and/or operationalization, data gaps or methodological challenges which may affect our ability to collect relevant data. These regimes continue to evolve and there is still a lack of clarity and established practice around the approach to their supervision and enforcement, which may vary across national competent authorities. There is a risk that a development or reorientation in the regulatory requirements or market practice in this respect could be adverse to our investments if they are perceived to be less valuable as a consequence of, among other things, their carbon footprint or perceived "greenwashing." Compliance with requirements of this nature may also increase risks relating to financial supervision and enforcement action. There is the additional risk that market expectations in relation to certain commitments under the SFDR, such as disclosures made in relation to financial products, could adversely affect our ability to raise capital, especially from EEA investors.
 There are a variety of other regulatory initiatives related to ESG-specific topics that may be applicable to us, our products or our products' portfolio companies. For example, on January 5, 2023, the CSRD came into effect. The CSRD amends and strengthens the rules introduced on sustainability reporting for companies, banks and insurance companies under the Non-Financial Reporting Directive (2014/95/EU) ("NFRD"). The CSRD requires a much broader range of companies, including non-EU companies with significant turnover and a legal presence in EU markets, to produce detailed and prescriptive reports on sustainability-related matters within their financial statements. Although we are not currently directly in-scope of CSRD, it is possible that we may become subject to CSRD. This may result in additional compliance burdens and increased legal, accounting and compliance costs and enhanced disclosure obligations.
 In November 2023, the Sustainability Labelling and Disclosure of Sustainability-Related Financial Information Instrument 2023 ("SDR") introduced sustainability disclosure requirements, voluntary investment product labels and an "anti-greenwashing" rule. The anti-greenwashing rule applies to all UK-authorized firms in relation to sustainability-related claims made in their communications, and/or communications of financial promotions with, clients in the UK. The balance of the new

 regime is currently directed at UK investment funds and UK-regulated asset management firms as well as distributors of such funds; however, the FCA consulted in Spring 2024 as to whether to extend the SDR to portfolio management, and the UK Government also announced in May 2024 its intention to launch a consultation on whether to extend the scope of SDR to overseas funds, and so certain of our products may be affected in the future.
 In Asia, examples of ESG-related regulations include those by regulators in Singapore and Hong Kong have released guidelines for asset managers to integrate climate risk considerations in investment and risk management processes, together with enhanced disclosure and reporting and have also issued enhanced rules for certain ESG funds on general ESG risk management and disclosure.
 As a result of these and other legislative and regulatory initiatives, and as our business grows through acquisition activity or changes to our structure, we may be required to provide additional disclosure to investors in our products with respect to ESG matters. This exposes us to increased disclosure risks, for example due to a lack of available or credible data, and the potential for conflicting disclosures may also expose us to an increased risk of misstatement litigation or miss-selling allegations. Failure to manage these risks could result in a material adverse effect on our business in a number of ways. Compliance with frameworks of this nature may create an additional compliance burden and increased legal, compliance, governance, reporting and other costs to funds and/or fund managers because of the need to collect certain information to meet the disclosure requirements. In addition, where there are uncertainties regarding the operation of the framework, a lack of official, conflicting or inconsistent regulatory guidance, a lack of established market practice and/or data gaps or methodological challenges affecting the ability to collect relevant data, funds and/or fund managers may be required to engage third party advisers and/or service providers to fulfil the requirements, thereby exacerbating any increase in compliance burden and costs. To the extent that any applicable jurisdictions enact similar laws and/or frameworks, there is a risk that our products may not be able to maintain alignment of a particular investment with such frameworks, and/or may be subject to additional compliance burdens and costs, which might adversely affect the investment returns of our products.
 Climate change and climate-related effects may expose us to systemic, global and macroeconomic risks and could adversely affect our business and the businesses of our products' portfolio companies.
 Global climate change is widely considered to be a significant threat to the global economy. We, our products and our products' portfolio companies may face risks associated with climate change, including physical risks such as an increased frequency or severity of extreme weather events and rising sea levels and temperatures. For some of our products and our products' portfolio companies, climate change may also impact their profitability and costs, as well as pose systemic risks for their businesses. For example, to the extent weather conditions are affected by climate change, energy use by us, our products or our products' portfolio companies could increase or decrease depending on the duration and magnitude of any changes. Increases in the cost of energy could adversely affect the cost of operations of us, our products or our products' portfolio companies. On the other hand, a decrease in energy use due to weather changes may affect some of our products' portfolio companies' financial condition through decreased revenues. Additionally, extreme weather conditions in general require more system backup, adding to costs, including costs of insurance (particularly for real estate in certain regions), and can contribute to increased system stresses, including service interruptions.
 The United States is currently a party to the Paris Agreement, which includes commitments from countries to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, among other commitments. While the new Presidential administration recently announced the United States' withdrawal from the Paris Agreement, the withdrawal is not expected to go into effect until early 2026. In addition, various other regulatory and voluntary initiatives launched by international, federal, state, and regional policymakers and regulatory authorities as well as private actors seeking to reduce greenhouse gas emissions may expose our business operations, products and products' portfolio companies to other types of transition risks, such as: (i) political and policy risks, including changing regulatory incentives, and legal requirements (including with respect to greenhouse gas emissions) that could result in increased costs or changes in business operations, (ii) regulatory and litigation risks, including changing legal requirements that could result in increased permitting, tax and compliance costs, enhanced disclosure obligations, changes in business operations, or the discontinuance of certain operations, and litigation seeking monetary or injunctive relief related to impacts related to climate change, (iii) technology and market risks, including declining market for investments in industries seen as greenhouse gas intensive or less effective than alternatives in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, (iv) business trend risks, including requirements for certain portfolio companies related to capital expenditures, product or service redesigns, and changes to operations and supply chains to meet changing customer expectations, and the increased attention to ESG considerations by our investors (including in connection with their determination of whether to invest), and (v) potential harm to our reputation if certain stakeholders, such as our investors or stockholders, believe that we are not adequately or appropriately responding to climate change and/or climate risk management, including through the way in which we operate

 our business, the composition of our products' existing portfolios, the new investments made by our products, or the decisions we make to continue to conduct or change our activities in response to climate change considerations.
 Increased data protection regulation may result in increased complexities and risk in connection with the operation of our business and our products.
 Our business is highly dependent on information systems and technology. The costs related to cyber or other security threats or disruptions may not be fully insured or indemnified by other means. Cybersecurity has become a priority for regulators in the U.S. and around the world. Recently, the SEC adopted new rules related to cybersecurity risk management for registered investment advisers, registered investment companies and business development companies, as well as amendments to certain rules that govern investment adviser and fund disclosures. In July 2023, the SEC adopted rules requiring public companies to disclose material cybersecurity incidents on Form 8-K and periodic disclosure of a registrant's cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance in annual reports. The rules became effective beginning with annual reports for fiscal years ending on or after December 15, 2023 and beginning with Form 8-Ks on December 18, 2023. The SEC has also particularly focused on cybersecurity, and we expect increased scrutiny of our policies and systems designed to manage our cybersecurity risks and our related disclosures as a result. We also expect to face increased costs to comply with the new SEC rules, including increased costs for cybersecurity training and management.
 Many jurisdictions in which we operate have laws and regulations relating to data protection, privacy, cybersecurity and/or information security to which we may be subject (collectively, "Privacy Laws"). Compliance with applicable Privacy Laws may require adhering to stringent legal and operational requirements, which could increase compliance costs for us and require the dedication of additional time and resources to compliance. A failure to comply with applicable Privacy Laws could result in fines, sanctions, enforcement actions or other penalties or reputational damage. In addition, the SEC has indicated in recent periods that one of its examination priorities for the Division of Examinations is to continue to examine cybersecurity procedures and controls, including testing the implementation of these procedures and controls.
 There may be substantial financial penalties or fines for a failure to comply with applicable Privacy Laws (which may include insufficient security for our personal or other sensitive information). For example, failure to comply with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the "GDPR") and the GDPR as it forms part of the laws of England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland (the "UK GDPR") could (in the worst case) attract regulatory penalties up to the greater of (i) 20 million Euros in respect of the GDPR / 17.5 million in respect of the UK GDPR (as applicable), and (ii) 4% of group annual worldwide turnover, as well as the possibility of other enforcement actions (such as suspension of processing activities and audits), and liabilities from third-party claims.
 Our operations will be impacted by a growing movement to adopt comprehensive privacy and data protection laws similar to the GDPR, including in the U.S., where such laws focus on privacy as an individual right in general. For example, the State of California passed the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (as amended, the "CCPA"), which took effect on January 1, 2020. The CCPA generally applies to businesses that collect personal information about California consumers and meet certain thresholds with respect to revenue or buying and/or selling consumers' personal information. The CCPA imposes stringent legal and operational obligations on such businesses as well as certain affiliated entities that share common branding. The CCPA is enforceable by the California Attorney General. Additionally, if unauthorized access, theft, or disclosure of a consumer's personal information occurs, and the business did not maintain reasonable security practices, consumers could file a civil action (including a class action) without having to prove actual damages. Statutory damages range from $100 to $750 per consumer per incident, or actual damages, whichever is greater. The California Attorney General also may impose civil penalties ranging from $2,500 to $7,500 per violation. Further, California passed the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (the "CPRA") to amend and extend the protections of the CCPA. Under the CPRA, which became effective on January 1, 2023, California established a new state agency focused on the enforcement of its privacy laws, leading to greater levels of enforcement and greater costs related to compliance with the CCPA and CPRA.
 Other jurisdictions, including other states in the United States, have either passed, proposed, adopted or are considering similar laws and regulations to the CCPA, CPRA and GDPR, which could impose similarly significant costs, potential liabilities and operational and legal obligations. Further, the fund's portfolio companies and/or each of their affiliates are subject to regulations related to privacy, data protection and information security in the jurisdictions in which they do business. Such laws and regulations vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, thus increasing costs, operational and legal burdens and the potential for significant liability on regulated entities.
 Non-compliance with any applicable Privacy Laws represents a serious risk to our business. Many jurisdictions have also enacted laws requiring companies to notify individuals of data security breaches involving certain types of personal

 information. Breaches in security could potentially jeopardize our, our employees' or our product investors' or counterparties' confidential or other information processed and stored in, or transmitted through, our computer systems and networks (or those of our third party vendors), or otherwise cause interruptions or malfunctions in our, our employees', our product investors', our counterparties' or third parties' operations, which could result in significant losses, increased costs, disruption of our business, liability to our product investors and other counterparties, fines or penalties, litigation, regulatory intervention or reputational damage, which could also lead to loss of product investors or clients.
 Finally, there continues to be significant evolution and developments in the use of artificial intelligence technologies, such as ChatGPT. We cannot fully determine the impact or cybersecurity risk of such evolving technology to our business at this time. We may incorporate, directly or through third-party vendors, the use of artificial intelligence ("AI") into our business and operations, and anticipate that usage and adoption of AI in the marketplace will continue to grow. As with many disruptive innovations, AI presents risks and challenges that could affect its accuracy and adoption and therefore our business. While we intend the use of any AI to make processes more efficient, AI models may not achieve sufficient levels of accuracy. AI algorithms may be flawed, the datasets on which such algorithms are trained may be insufficient, raise privacy concerns or contain biased information, which could undermine the decisions, predictions or analysis AI applications produce, subjecting us to competitive harm, legal liability, and brand or reputational harm. A number of jurisdictions have passed laws and implemented regulations, or are considering the same, related to the use of AI and affecting AI companies, which could limit or adversely affect our business. For example, the EU Artificial Intelligence Act, enacted on 14 March 2024 will incrementally come into force over the next two years. It has extra-territorial application and imposes significant penalties up to the greater of: (i) 35 million; and (ii) 7% of an entire group's total annual worldwide turnover.
 Further, we may not be able to control how third-party AI technologies that we choose to use are developed or maintained, or how data we input is used or disclosed, even where we have sought contractual protections with respect to these matters. The misuse or misappropriation of our data could have an adverse impact on our reputation and could subject us to legal and regulatory investigations and/or actions.
 We are subject to litigation risks, and consequently, we may face liabilities and damage to our professional reputation.
 Legal liability could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations or cause reputational harm to us. We depend to a large extent on our business relationships and our reputation for integrity and high-caliber professional services to attract and retain product investors and to pursue investment opportunities for our products. As a result, allegations of improper conduct asserted by private litigants or regulators, regardless of whether the ultimate outcome is favorable or unfavorable to us, as well as negative publicity and press speculation about us, our investment activities or the investment industry in general, whether or not valid, may harm our reputation, which may be damaging to our business.
 In addition, the laws and regulations governing the limited liability of such issuers and investments vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and in certain contexts the laws of certain jurisdictions may provide not only for carve-outs from limited liability protection for the issuer or portfolio company that has incurred the liabilities, but also for recourse to assets of other entities under common control with, or that are part of the same economic group as, such issuer. For example, if any of our products' investments is subject to bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings in a jurisdiction and is found to have liabilities under the local consumer protection, labor, tax or bankruptcy laws, the laws of that jurisdiction may permit authorities or creditors to file a lien on, or to otherwise have recourse to, assets held by other investments (including assets held by our products) in that jurisdiction. There can be no assurance that we will not be adversely affected as a result of the foregoing risks.
 We may not be able to maintain sufficient insurance to cover us for potential litigation or other risks.
 We may not be able to maintain sufficient insurance on commercially reasonable terms or with adequate coverage levels against potential liabilities we may face in connection with potential claims, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. We may face a risk of loss from a variety of claims, including related to securities, antitrust, contracts, cybersecurity, fraud and various other potential claims, whether or not such claims are valid. Insurance and other safeguards might only partially reimburse us for our losses, if at all, and if a claim is successful and exceeds or is not covered by our insurance policies, we may be required to pay a substantial amount in respect of such successful claim. Certain losses of a catastrophic nature, such as losses arising as a result of wars, systemic risk associated with cyber-kinetic warfare, earthquakes, typhoons, terrorist attacks or other similar events, may be uninsurable or may only be insurable at rates that are so high that maintaining coverage would cause an adverse impact on our business, our investment funds and their investments. In general, losses related to terrorism and catastrophic nation-state hacks are becoming harder and more expensive to insure against. Some insurers are excluding terrorism coverage from their all-risk policies. In some cases, insurers are offering significantly limited coverage

 against terrorist acts for additional premiums, which can greatly increase the total cost of casualty insurance for a property. As a result, we, our products and their investments may not be insured against terrorism or certain other catastrophic losses.
 Loans under our Revolving Credit Facility and the financial credit we extend to our portfolio companies bear interest based
 on SOFR, but the market's experience with SOFR based loans is still limited.
 Our products, and in particular our BDCs, historically used LIBOR, the London Interbank Offered Rate, as a reference rate in term loans they extended to portfolio companies. The terms of our BDCs' debt investments generally included minimum interest rate floors which were calculated based on LIBOR.
 In July 2017, the FCA, as supervisor of ICE Benchmark Administrator ("IBA"), the administrator of LIBOR, announced that it would phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021 (later extended to the end of June 2023 for USD LIBOR only). IBA ceased publishing GBP, EUR, CHF and JPY LIBOR rates on January 1, 2022 and ceased publishing overnight and 12-month USD LIBOR on June, 30 2023. In January 2023, the Federal Reserve adopted a final rule implementing the LIBOR Act that, among other things, identifies the applicable SOFR-based benchmark replacements under the LIBOR Act.
 SOFR is considered to be a risk-free rate, and USD LIBOR was a risk weighted rate. Thus, SOFR tends to be a lower rate than USD LIBOR, because SOFR does not contain a risk component. This difference may negatively impact our net interest margin of our investments. Also, the use of SOFR based rates is relatively new, and market experience with SOFR based rate loans is limited. There could be unanticipated difficulties or disruptions with the calculation and publication of SOFR based rates. This could result in increased borrowing costs for the Company or could adversely impact the interest income our products receive from their portfolio companies or the market value of the financial obligations that are due to our products from their portfolio
 companies.
 Failure to comply with "pay to play" regulations implemented by the SEC and certain states, and changes to the "pay to play" regulatory regimes, could adversely affect our business.
 Certain states and other regulatory authorities require investment managers to register as lobbyists. We, and certain of our employees, are registered as lobbyists in California and in New York. These registration requirements impose significant compliance obligations on registered lobbyists and their employers, which may include annual registration fees, periodic disclosure reports and internal record keeping, and may also prohibit the payment of contingent fees.
 Under applicable SEC rules, investment advisers are required to implement compliance policies designed, among other matters, to track contributions by certain of the adviser's employees and engagements of third parties that solicit government entities and to keep certain records to enable the SEC to determine compliance with the rule. In addition, there have been similar rules on a state level regarding "pay to play" practices by investment advisers. FINRA has its own set of "pay to play" regulations that are similar to the SEC's regulations.
 As we have public pension plans that are investors in our products, these rules could impose significant economic sanctions on our business if we or one of the other persons covered by the rules make any prohibited contribution or payment, whether or not material or with an intent to secure an investment from a public pension plan. We may also acquire other investment managers or hire additional personnel who are not subject to the same restrictions as us, but whose activity, and the activity of their employees, prior to our ownership or employment of such person, could affect our product raising. Any failure on our part to comply with these rules could cause us to lose compensation for our advisory services or expose us to significant penalties and reputational damage.
 Failure to comply with anti-corruption laws or with regulations regarding the prevention of money laundering or terrorism or national security could adversely affect our business.
 We are committed to complying with all applicable anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws. As a result, we may forgo investment opportunities because of our unwillingness to participate in transactions that may expose us to risks under applicable anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws. In recent years, law enforcement agencies in the European Union, the United States and elsewhere have devoted significant resources to enforcement of anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws and regulations, including with respect to investments made by private equity investors. Any failure to comply with anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws and regulations could have serious legal, financial and reputational consequences, including operational disruptions and significant financial penalties.

 As part of our responsibility for the prevention of money laundering under applicable laws, we may require detailed verification of a prospective investor's identity and the source of such prospective investor's funds. In the event of delay or failure by a prospective investor to produce any such information required for verification purposes, we may refuse to admit the investor to our products. We may from time to time request (outside of the subscription process), and our products' investors will be obligated to provide to us as appropriate upon such request, additional information as may be required for us to satisfy our obligations under these and other laws that may be adopted in the future. Additionally, we may from time to time be obligated to file reports with regulatory authorities in various jurisdictions with regard to, among other things, the identity of our products' investors and suspicious activities involving the interests of our products. In the event it is determined that any investor, or any direct or indirect owner of any investor, is a person identified in any of these laws as a prohibited person, or is otherwise engaged in activities of the type prohibited under these laws, we may be obligated, among other actions to be taken, to withhold distributions of any funds otherwise owing to such investor or to cause such investor's interests to be cancelled or otherwise redeemed (without the payment of any consideration in respect of those interests).
 The Bank Secrecy Act of 1970 and the USA PATRIOT Act require that financial institutions (a term that includes banks, broker-dealers and investment companies) establish and maintain compliance programs to guard against money laundering activities. These implementing regulations were recently amended to include registered investment advisers within scope of financial institutions that will be obliged by January 1, 2026 to adopt stand-alone anti-money laundering programs. Laws or regulations may presently or in the future require us, our products or any of our affiliates or other service providers to establish additional anti-money laundering procedures, to collect information with respect to our products' investors, to share information with governmental authorities with respect to our products' investors or to implement additional restrictions on the transfer of the interests. These requirements can lead to increased expenses and exposure to enforcement actions.
 Economic sanction laws in the U.S. and other jurisdictions may prohibit us and our affiliates from transacting with certain countries, individuals and companies.
 Economic sanction laws in the U.S. and other jurisdictions may restrict or prohibit us or our affiliates from transacting with certain countries, territories, individuals and entities. In the U.S., the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") administers and enforces laws, executive orders and regulations establishing U.S. economic and trade sanctions, which restrict or prohibit, among other things, direct and indirect transactions with, and the provision of services to, certain non-U.S. countries, territories, industry sectors, individuals and entities. These types of sanctions may significantly restrict or completely prohibit lending activities in certain jurisdictions, and violation of any such laws or regulations, may result in significant legal and monetary penalties, as well as reputational damage. OFAC sanctions programs change frequently, which may make it more difficult for us or our affiliates to ensure compliance. Moreover, OFAC enforcement is increasing, which may increase the risk that we become the subject of such actual or threatened enforcement. In addition, further sanctions imposed by the United States and other countries in connection with the war between Russia and Ukraine may impact portfolio companies of our products, which may in turn impact us.
 Additionally, Section 2019 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 (the "ITRA") amended the Exchange Act to require companies subject to SEC reporting obligations under Section 13 of the Exchange Act to disclose in their periodic reports specified dealings or transactions involving Iran or other individuals and entities targeted by OFAC during the period covered by the relevant periodic report. In some cases, the ITRA requires companies to disclose these types of transactions even if they were permissible under U.S. law. Companies that currently may be or may have been at the time considered our affiliates, may have from time to time publicly filed and/or provided to us such disclosures. We do not independently verify or participate in the preparation of these disclosures. We and our publicly traded products are required, either periodically or annually to separately file with the SEC a notice when such activities have been disclosed, and the SEC is required to post such notice of disclosure on its website and send the report to the President and certain U.S. Congressional committees. Disclosure of such activity, even if such activity is not subject to sanctions under applicable law, and any sanctions actually imposed on us or our affiliates as a result of these activities, could harm our reputation and have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and any failure to disclose any such activities as required could additionally result in fines or penalties.
 Certain of the products or accounts we advise or manage comply with an exception under the "plan assets" regulation under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") in order to not be subject to ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code, and our business could be adversely affected if such products or accounts fail to satisfy an exception under the "plan assets" regulation under ERISA.
 A number of investors in our products are subject to the fiduciary and prohibited transaction provisions of Title I of ERISA and the parallel provisions of the Code; however, the substantial majority of our products rely on the "insignificant participation"

 exception under the "plan assets" regulation under ERISA. We are not, therefore subject to the requirements of ERISA (or the parallel provision of the Code) with respect to the management of those products. However, if those products fail to satisfy that exception for any reason and if no other exception is available, that failure could materially interfere with our activities in relation to those products or expose us to risks related to our failure to comply with the applicable requirements. For example, the governing documents of a fund generally impose certain obligations on the general partner or manager of the fund to cause the assets of the fund to not be treated as "plan assets" and a breach of that obligation could create liability for us.
 Further, if the assets of a fund that is not intended to hold plan assets become plan assets (whether because of our breach, a change in law or otherwise), the application of ERISA-related requirements on our product may prevent us from operating the fund as intended and may cause the fund to breach its obligations with Partner Managers or other investments, which would create significant liabilities for our products and could significantly impact the fund's ability to make any further investments.
 Certain of our products and accounts that we manage or advise are subject to ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code. Failure to comply with the requirements of ERISA and/or Section 4975 could subject us to consequences including the imposition of excise taxes, disgorgement of profits, and personal liability.
 Some of our products and accounts are subject to ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code, and we act as a fiduciary under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code with respect to the plan assets invested in such products and accounts. In the management and operation of such products and accounts, we seek to comply with the applicable provisions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code, and do not engage in any transactions which we know or should know are "prohibited transactions" for which no exemption applies. We have adopted and comply with customary ERISA policies and procedures to avoid violating ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, including engaging in a non-exempt "prohibited transaction." However, if we were to cause a product or account subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code to violate ERISA or engage in a prohibited transaction, we could, among other consequences, be subject to an excise tax on prohibited transactions, be required to disgorge profits and/or make the affected plans whole, or be held personally liable for breach of fiduciary duties.
 In addition to the products and accounts described above, we have formed a small number of holding vehicles to facilitate co-investments alongside our products by ERISA investors, the assets of which holding vehicles constitute "plan assets" and with respect to which we serve as a fiduciary. While we may be required to satisfy applicable fiduciary standards and avoid engaging in prohibited transactions with respect to such holding vehicles and their assets, in each case, our authority with respect to the management and control of those vehicles is limited by contract with the relevant product investor. Accordingly, we do not anticipate any liabilities with respect to our serving as a fiduciary with respect to such vehicles.
 Changes in tax policies and regulations may create uncertainty for our business and investment strategies.
 The Presidential administration and the U.S. Congress may introduce new policies and regulations or enforce existing policies and regulations that may create uncertainty for our business and investment strategies, which could have an adverse impact on us. On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act was signed into law, which, among other things, imposes a minimum "book" tax on certain large corporations and creates a new excise tax on net stock repurchases made by certain publicly traded corporations. While the application of this law is uncertain, including as a result of the transition to the new U.S. presidential administration, and we continue to evaluate its potential impact, these changes could materially change the amount and/or timing of tax Blue Owl may be required to pay.
 There may also be changes in tax laws or interpretations of tax laws (possibly with retrospective effect) in a jurisdiction in which we and/or our affiliates operate, are managed, are advised, are promoted or invest, or in which any of the investors in our products is resident, that are adverse to us or our affiliates. In particular, both the level and basis of taxation may change. Changes to taxation treaties or interpretations of taxation treaties between one or more such jurisdictions and the countries through which we or our affiliates hold investments or in which investors in our products are resident, or the introduction of, or change to, EU directives may adversely affect the ability of our products to efficiently realize income or capital gains and to efficiently repatriate income and capital gains from the jurisdictions in which they arise to partners in the relevant products. Consequently, it is possible that we or our affiliates may face unfavorable tax treatment in such jurisdictions that may materially adversely affect the value of our investments or the feasibility of making investments in certain countries. This could significantly affect our returns.
 In particular, pursuant to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development's (the "OECD") BEPS Project, many jurisdictions have introduced domestic legislation implementing certain of the BEPS Actions. Several of the areas of tax law (including double taxation treaties) on which the BEPS Project focuses are relevant to our ability to efficiently realize income or capital gains and to efficiently repatriate income and capital gains from the jurisdictions in which they arise to investors and,

 depending on the extent to and manner in which relevant jurisdictions have implemented (or implement, as the case may be) changes in those areas of tax law (including double taxation treaties), our ability to do those things may be adversely impacted. Many of the jurisdictions in which we or our affiliates invest or may invest have now ratified, accepted and approved the OECD's Multilateral Instrument which brings into force a number of relevant changes to double tax treaties within scope. While these changes continue to be introduced, there remains uncertainty as to whether and, if so, to what extent we or our affiliates may benefit from the protections afforded by such treaties and whether we or our affiliates may look to investors in order to derive tax treaty or other benefits. This position is likely to remain uncertain for a number of years.
 The Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive 2016/1164 (commonly referred to as "ATAD I") directly implements some of the BEPS Project actions points within EU law. On May 29, 2017, the Council of the EU formally adopted the Council Directive amending Directive 2016/1164 as regards hybrid mismatches with third countries (commonly referred to as "ATAD II"). ATAD II came into force in Member States on January 1, 2020 (subject to relevant derogation). On December 22, 2021, the European Commission issued a proposal for a Council Directive laying down rules to prevent the misuse of shell entities for tax purposes within the EU (the "Unshell Proposal"). While the European Commission initially expected the Unshell Proposal to be adopted and published into EU member states' national laws by June 30, 2023, and to come into effect as of January 1, 2024, there is considerable uncertainty surrounding the development of the proposal and its implementation. If adopted in its current form, the proposal could result in additional reporting and disclosure obligations for investment funds and/or their subsidiaries (which may require the sharing with applicable taxing or other governmental authorities information concerning investors) and/or additional tax being suffered by us or our affiliates.
 Further to the BEPS Project, and in particular BEPS Action 1 ("Addressing the Tax Challenges of the Digital Economy"), the OECD published a Report on May 31, 2019 entitled "Programme of Work to Develop a Consensus Solution to the Tax Challenges Arising from the Digitalization of the Economy" (as updated on several occasions since and most recently on October 8, 2021 by the "Statement on a Two-Pillar Solution to Address the Tax Challenges Arising from the Digitalization of the Economy"), which proposes fundamental changes to the international tax system. The proposals (commonly referred to as "BEPS 2.0") are based on two 'pillars', involving the reallocation of taxing rights ("Amount A of Pillar One"), and a new global minimum corporate tax rate ("Pillar Two").
 Under Amount A of Pillar One, multinational enterprises ("MNEs") with total group revenues exceeding EUR 20 billion (or equivalent) in a given period and pre-tax profitability exceeding 10% calculated using an averaging mechanism will be subject to rules allocating 25% of profits in excess of a 10% profit margin to the jurisdictions within which they carry on business (subject to threshold rules). Certain entities are excluded, including certain investment funds and real estate investment vehicles (as respectively defined) which are the ultimate parent entity of the MNE group (and certain holding vehicles of such entities). There are also specific exclusions for MNEs carrying on specific low-risk activities, including "regulated financial services" (as defined). Pillar Two imposes a minimum effective tax rate of 15% on MNEs that have consolidated revenues of at least EUR 750 million in at least two out of the last four years (i.e. broadly those MNEs which are required to undertake country by country reporting). Pillar Two introduces two related tax measures (the "GloBE Rules"): the income inclusion rule ("IIR") imposes a top up tax on a parent entity where a constituent member of the MNE group has low taxed income while the undertaxed payment rule ("UTPR") applies as a backstop if the constituent member's income is not taxed by an IIR. Specified classes of entities which are typically exempt from tax are outside the scope of the GloBE Rules, including investment funds and real estate investment vehicles (as respectively defined) which are the ultimate parent entity of the MNE group (and certain holding vehicles of such entities). Additionally, and part of Pillar Two but separate from the GloBE Rules, a subject to tax rule ("STTR") will permit source jurisdictions to impose limited additional taxation on certain cross-border related party payments where the recipient is subject to a nominal corporate income tax rate (subject, in some circumstances, to certain adjustments) below 9%, which will be creditable against the GloBE Rules tax liability.
 The GloBE Rules must be implemented through domestic legislation, and on December 20, 2021 the OECD released Pillar Two model rules providing a template for this purpose. Many jurisdictions have enacted legislation, including most EU Member States pursuant to the EU minimum tax directive and the UK, with a view to the IIR and the UTPR taking effect for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Amount A of Pillar One will be implemented through a multilateral convention and the STTR will be implemented, where applicable, either through modifications to bilateral tax treaties or alternatively through a multilateral instrument. The timeline for implementation of both Amount A of Pillar One and the STTR remains uncertain. Subject to the development and implementation of both Amount A of Pillar One and Pillar Two (including the implementation of the EU minimum tax directive by EU Member States) and the details of any domestic legislation, double taxation treaty amendments and multilateral agreements which are necessary to implement them, effective tax rates could increase for Blue Owl and/or its subsidiaries or within the structure of our products or on their investments, including by way of higher levels of tax being imposed than is currently the case, possible denial of deductions or increased withholding taxes and/or profits being allocated differently and/or penalties could be due. This could

 adversely affect our returns. The implementation of BEPS 2.0 in relevant jurisdictions is complex and likely to remain uncertain for a number of years.
 Risks Related to Our Structure and Governance
 Blue Owl has elected to be treated as a "controlled company" within the meaning of the NYSE listing standards and, as a result, our stockholders may not have certain corporate governance protections that are available to stockholders of companies that are not controlled companies.
 So long as more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors of Blue Owl is held by an individual, a group or another company, Blue Owl will qualify as a "controlled company" under the NYSE listing requirements. The Principals control a majority of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock. As a result, Blue Owl qualifies as and has elected to be treated as a "controlled company" under the NYSE listing standards and will not be subject to the requirements that would otherwise require us to have: (i) a majority of "independent directors," as defined under the listing standards of the NYSE; (ii) a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors; (iii) compensation of our executive officers determined by a majority of the independent directors or a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors; and (iv) director nominees selected, or recommended for the Board's selection, either by a majority of the independent directors or a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors.
 The Principals may have their interest in Blue Owl diluted due to future equity issuances or their own actions in selling Class A Shares, in each case, which could result in a loss of the "controlled company" exemption under the NYSE listing rules. Blue Owl would then be required to comply with those provisions of the NYSE listing requirements.
 The multi-class structure of Blue Owl common stock has the effect of concentrating voting power with the Principals, which limits an investor's ability to influence the outcome of important transactions, including a change in control.
 Entities controlled by the Principals hold all of the issued and outstanding Class D Shares (and will hold all of the Class B Shares to the extent any are issued and outstanding in the future). Accordingly, until such time as the Principals own less than 25% of their aggregate ownership, the Principals will hold 80% of the voting power of Blue Owl's capital stock on a fully-diluted basis and will be able to control matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors, amendments of our organizational documents and any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of our assets or other major corporate transactions. The Principals may have interests that differ from our stockholders and may vote in a way with which you disagree and which may be adverse to your interests. This concentrated control may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of Blue Owl, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their capital stock as part of a sale of Blue Owl, and might ultimately affect the market price of Class A Shares.
 Potential conflicts of interest may arise among the holders of Class B and Class D Shares and the holders of our Class A and Class C Shares.
 The Principals hold all of the Class D Shares (and will hold all of the Class B Shares to the extent any are issued and outstanding in the future). As a result, conflicts of interest may arise among the Principals, on the one hand, and us and holders of our Class A and Class C Shares, on the other hand. The Principals have the ability to influence our business and affairs through their ownership of the high vote shares of our common stock, their general ability to appoint our Board, and provisions under the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement dated as of August 7, 2023, between Blue Owl, certain former equity holders of Owl Rock and certain former equity holders of Dyal Capital (as amended from time to time, the "Investor Rights Agreement") and our certificate of incorporation requiring their approval for certain corporate actions (in addition to approval by our Board). If the holders of our Class A and Class C Shares are dissatisfied with the performance of our Board, they have no ability to remove any of our directors, with or without cause.
 Further, through their ability to elect our Board, the Principals have the ability to indirectly influence the determination of the amount and timing of our investments and dispositions, cash expenditures, allocation of expenses, indebtedness, issuances of additional partnership interests, tax liabilities and amounts of reserves, each of which can affect the amount of cash that is available for distribution to holders of Common Units (as defined in Note 1 to the Financial Statements) and our Class A Shares.
 In addition, conflicts may arise relating to the selection, structuring and disposition of investments and other transactions, declaring dividends and other distributions and other matters due to the fact that the Principals hold their Blue Owl Operating Group Units directly or through pass-through entities that are not subject to corporate income taxation.

 Delaware law, our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws contain certain provisions, including anti-takeover provisions, that limit the ability of stockholders to take certain actions and could delay or discourage takeover attempts that stockholders may consider favorable.
 Our certificate of incorporation and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended ("DGCL"), contain provisions that could have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying, or preventing an acquisition deemed undesirable by the Board and therefore depress the trading price of Blue Owl's Class A Shares. These provisions could also make it difficult for stockholders to take certain actions, including electing directors who are not nominated by the current members of the Board or taking other corporate actions, including effecting changes in management. Among other things, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws include provisions regarding:
 • a classified board of directors with three-year staggered terms, which could delay the ability of stockholders to change the membership of a majority of the Board;
 • the ability of the Board to issue shares of preferred stock, including "blank check" preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer;
 • the limitation of the liability of, and the indemnification of, our directors and officers;
 • the right of the Board to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the Board or the resignation, death or removal of a director, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on the Board;
 • the requirement that directors may only be removed from the Board for cause;
 • the inability of stockholders to act by written consent;
 • the requirement that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by the Board, the chairman of the Board or Blue Owl's chief executive officer, which could delay the ability of stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors;
 • controlling the procedures for the conduct and scheduling of the Board and stockholder meetings;
 • the ability of the Board to amend the bylaws, which may allow the Board to take additional actions to prevent an unsolicited takeover and inhibit the ability of an acquirer to amend the bylaws to facilitate an unsolicited takeover attempt; and
 • advance notice procedures with which stockholders must comply to nominate candidates to the Board or to propose matters to be acted upon at a stockholders' meeting, which could preclude stockholders from bringing matters before annual or special meetings of stockholders and delay changes in the composition of the Board and also may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer's own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company.
 These provisions, alone or together, could delay or prevent hostile takeovers and changes in control or changes in the Board or management.
 In addition, as a Delaware corporation, Blue Owl Capital Inc. is generally subject to provisions of Delaware law, including the DGCL, although we have elected not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL.
 Any provision of our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control could limit the opportunity for stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our capital stock and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our common stock.
 In addition, the provisions of the Investor Rights Agreement provide the stockholders party thereto with certain Board representation and other consent rights that could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control.

 Our certificate of incorporation designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders' ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees.
 Our certificate of incorporation provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of us, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer, other employee, agent or stockholder of Blue Owl to Blue Owl or our stockholders, or any claim for aiding and abetting such alleged breach, (c) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our current or former directors, officers, other employees, agents or stockholders (i) arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, our certificate of incorporation (as it may be amended or restated) or our bylaws or (ii) as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Delaware Court of Chancery or (d) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our current or former directors, officers, other employees, agents or stockholders governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the law of the State of Delaware shall, as to any action in the foregoing clauses (a) through (b), to the fullest extent permitted by law, be solely and exclusively brought in the Delaware Court of Chancery; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any claim (1) as to which the Delaware Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), (2) which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Delaware Court of Chancery, or (3) arising under federal securities laws, including the Securities Act as to which the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Article XIII of our certificate of incorporation does not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the sole and exclusive forum.
 This choice-of-forum provision may limit a stockholder's ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our or its directors, officers, stockholders, agents or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits. Alternatively, if a court were to find this provision of our certificate of incorporation inapplicable or unenforceable with respect to one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and result in a diversion of the time and resources of management and our Board.
 Blue Owl Capital Inc. is a holding company and its only material source of cash is its indirect interest (held through Blue Owl GP) in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships, and it is accordingly dependent upon distributions made by its subsidiaries to pay taxes, make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, and pay dividends.
 Blue Owl Capital Inc. is a holding company with no material assets other than its indirect ownership of the GP Units (as defined in Note 1 to the Financial Statements) through Blue Owl GP and certain deferred tax assets. As a result, Blue Owl Capital Inc. has no independent means of generating revenue or cash flow. Blue Owl Capital Inc.'s ability to pay taxes, make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, and pay dividends will depend on the financial results and cash flows of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships and the distributions it receives (directly or indirectly) from the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships. Deterioration in the financial condition, earnings or cash flow of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships for any reason could limit or impair the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships' ability to pay such distributions. Additionally, to the extent that Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP needs funds and the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships are restricted from making such distributions under applicable law or regulation or under the terms of any financing arrangements, or the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships are otherwise unable to provide such funds, it could materially adversely affect Blue Owl Capital Inc.'s liquidity and financial condition.
 Subject to the discussion herein, the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships expect to continue to be treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, as such, generally will not be subject to any entity-level U.S. federal income tax. Instead, taxable income will be allocated to holders of interests in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships. Accordingly, Blue Owl GP will be required to pay income taxes on its allocable share of any taxable income of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships. Under the terms of the Blue Owl Limited Partnership Agreements, the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships are obligated to make tax distributions to holders of interests in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships calculated at certain assumed tax rates.
 In addition to tax expenses, Blue Owl will also incur expenses related to its operations, including Blue Owl GP's payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement, which could be significant, and some of which will be reimbursed by the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships (excluding payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement). Blue Owl intends to cause Blue Owl GP to cause the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships to make ordinary distributions and tax distributions to holders of the interests in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships on a pro rata basis in amounts sufficient to cover all applicable taxes, relevant operating expenses, payments by Blue Owl GP under the Tax Receivable Agreement and dividends, if any,

 declared by Blue Owl. However, as discussed above, the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships' ability to make such distributions may be subject to various limitations and restrictions including, but not limited to, retention of amounts necessary to satisfy the obligations of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships and restrictions on distributions that would violate any applicable restrictions contained in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships' debt agreements, or any applicable law, or that would have the effect of rendering the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships insolvent. To the extent that Blue Owl GP is unable to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement for any reason, such payments will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid; provided, however, that nonpayment for a specified period may constitute a breach of a material obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement and therefore accelerate payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, which could be substantial.
 Additionally, although the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships generally will not be subject to any entity-level U.S. federal income tax, they may be liable under current U.S. federal tax laws governing audits of partnerships for adjustments to prior year tax returns, absent an election to the contrary. In the event the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships' calculations of taxable income are incorrect, the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships and/or their partners, including Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP, in later years may be subject to material liabilities under these rules.
 If either of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships were treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax or state tax purposes, then the amount available for distribution by such Blue Owl Operating Partnerships could be substantially reduced and the value of Blue Owl Capital Inc.'s shares could be adversely affected.
 An entity that would otherwise be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes (such as either of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships) may nonetheless be treated as, and taxable as, a corporation if it is a "publicly traded partnership" unless an exception to such treatment applies. An entity that would otherwise be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes will be treated as a "publicly traded partnership" if interests in such entity are traded on an established securities market or interests in such entity are readily tradable on a secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof. If either of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships were determined to be treated as a "publicly traded partnership" (and taxable as a corporation) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Blue Owl Operating Partnership would be taxable on its income at the U.S. federal income tax rates applicable to corporations and distributions by such Blue Owl Operating Partnership to its partners (including Blue Owl GP) could be taxable as dividends to such partners to the extent of the earnings and profits of such Blue Owl Operating Partnership. In addition, we would no longer have the benefit of increases in the tax basis of the Blue Owl Operating Partnership's assets as a result of exchanges of Common Units. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, certain Blue Owl equity holders may, from time to time, subject to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, exchange their interests in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships and have such interests redeemed by Blue Owl Operating Partnerships for cash or Blue Owl Capital Inc.'s stock. While such exchanges could be treated as trading in the interests of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships for purposes of testing "publicly traded partnership" status, the Exchange Agreement contains restrictions on redemptions and exchanges of interests in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships that are intended to prevent either of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships from being treated as a "publicly traded partnership" for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Such restrictions are designed to comply with certain safe harbors provided for under applicable U.S. federal income tax law. Blue Owl GP may also impose additional restrictions on exchanges that Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP determines to be necessary or advisable so that neither of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships is treated as a "publicly traded partnership" for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, while such position is not free from doubt, each of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships is expected to be operated such that it is not treated as a "publicly traded partnership" taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and we intend to take the position that neither of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships is so treated as a result of exchanges of its interests pursuant to the Exchange Agreement.
 Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, Blue Owl GP will be required to make payments to certain equity holders for certain tax benefits Blue Owl Capital Inc. and Blue Owl GP may claim and those payments may be substantial.
 Certain equity holders have exchanged, and may in the future exchange, their Common Units, together with the cancellation of an equal number of Class C Shares or Class D Shares, for Class A Shares or Class B Shares, respectively, or cash pursuant to the Blue Owl Operating Partnership Agreements and the Exchange Agreement, subject to certain conditions and transfer restrictions as set forth therein and in the Investor Rights Agreement. Such transactions have resulted in, or are in the future expected to result in, increases in Blue Owl Capital Inc.'s (and Blue Owl GP's) allocable share of the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships. These increases in tax basis may increase for income tax purposes depreciation and amortization deductions, and therefore reduce the amount of tax that Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP would otherwise be required to pay had such sales and exchanges never occurred.
 In connection with the Business Combination, Blue Owl GP entered into the Tax Receivable Agreement, which generally provides for the payment by it of 85% of certain tax benefits, if any, that Blue Owl GP realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to

 realize) as a result of these increases in tax basis and certain other tax attributes of Blue Owl GP, the corporations acquired from certain former Owl Rock equity holders in the transaction, and tax benefits related to entering into the Tax Receivable Agreement. Those payments are the obligation of Blue Owl GP and not of Blue Owl Operating Partnerships. The actual increase in Blue Owl GP's allocable share of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships' tax basis in their assets, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of exchanges, the market price of the Class A Shares at the time of the exchange, the extent to which such exchanges are taxable and the amount and timing of the recognition of Blue Owl Capital Inc.'s (and Blue Owl GP's) income. While many of the factors that will determine the amount of payments that Blue Owl GP will make under the Tax Receivable Agreement are outside of its control, Blue Owl GP expects that the payments it will make under the Tax Receivable Agreement will be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on Blue Owl's financial condition. Any payments made by Blue Owl GP under the Tax Receivable Agreement will generally reduce the amount of overall cash flow that might have otherwise been available to Blue Owl Capital Inc. and Blue Owl GP. To the extent that Blue Owl GP is unable to make timely payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement for any reason, the unpaid amounts will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid; however, nonpayment for a specified period may constitute a breach of a material obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement and therefore accelerate payments due under the Tax Receivable Agreement, as further described below. Furthermore, Blue Owl GP's obligation to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement could make Blue Owl a less attractive target for an acquisition, particularly in the case of an acquirer that cannot use some or all of the tax benefits that may be realized or deemed realized under the Tax Receivable Agreement.
 In certain cases, payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement may exceed the actual tax benefits Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP realizes or be accelerated.
 Payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement will be based on the tax reporting positions that Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP determines, and the Internal Revenue Service or another taxing authority may challenge all or any part of the tax basis increases, as well as other tax positions that Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP takes, and a court may sustain such a challenge. In the event that any tax benefits initially claimed by Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP are disallowed, recipients of payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement will not be required to reimburse Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP for any excess payments that may previously have been made under the Tax Receivable Agreement, for example, due to adjustments resulting from examinations by taxing authorities. Rather, excess payments made to such holders will be netted against any future cash payments otherwise required to be made by Blue Owl GP under the Tax Receivable Agreement, if any, after the determination of such excess. However, a challenge to any tax benefits initially claimed by Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP may not arise for a number of years following the initial time of such payment or, even if challenged early, such excess cash payment may be greater than the amount of future cash payments that Blue Owl GP might otherwise be required to make under the terms of the Tax Receivable Agreement and, as a result, there might not be future cash payments against which to net. As a result, in certain circumstances Blue Owl GP could make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement in excess of Blue Owl Capital Inc.'s or Blue Owl GP's actual tax savings, which could materially impair Blue Owl's financial condition.
 Moreover, the Tax Receivable Agreement provides that, in certain events, including a change of control, breach of a material obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement, or Blue Owl GP's exercise of early termination rights, Blue Owl GP's obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement will accelerate and Blue Owl GP will be required to make a lump-sum cash payment under the Tax Receivable Agreement equal to the present value of all forecasted future payments that would have otherwise been made under the Tax Receivable Agreement, which lump-sum payment would be based on certain assumptions, including those relating to Blue Owl GP's future taxable income. The lump-sum payment could be substantial and could exceed the actual tax benefits that Blue Owl Capital Inc. or Blue Owl GP realizes subsequent to such payment because such payment would be calculated assuming, among other things, that Blue Owl Capital Inc. and Blue Owl GP would have certain tax benefits available to it and that Blue Owl Capital Inc. and Blue Owl GP would be able to use the potential tax benefits in future years.
 There may be a material negative effect on Blue Owl Capital Inc.'s liquidity if the payments required to be made by Blue Owl GP under the Tax Receivable Agreement exceed the actual tax savings that Blue Owl Capital Inc. (or Blue Owl GP) realizes. Furthermore, Blue Owl GP's obligations to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement could also have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other changes of control.

 Adverse developments in U.S. and non-U.S. tax laws could have a material and adverse effect on our business. Our effective tax rate and the amount of "tax distributions" that the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships are required to make to equity holders could also change materially as a result of various evolving factors, including changes in income tax law or changes in the scope of our operations.
 Blue Owl Capital Inc. and Blue Owl GP are subject to U.S. federal income taxation, and Blue Owl Capital Inc., Blue Owl GP, and the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships and their subsidiaries are subject to income taxation by certain states and municipalities and certain foreign jurisdictions in which such subsidiaries operate. In addition, the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships are required to make tax distributions to their partners pursuant to the Blue Owl Limited Partnership Agreements. In determining our tax liability and obligation to make tax distributions, we must monitor changes to the applicable tax laws and related regulations. While our existing operations have been implemented in a manner we believe is in compliance with current prevailing laws, one or more taxing U.S. or non-U.S. jurisdictions could seek to impose incremental, retroactive, or new taxes on us. Such changes may increase tax uncertainty and/or our effective tax rate, result in higher compliance cost and result in a corresponding increase in the amount of payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement and/or a corresponding increase in the tax distributions that the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships will be required to make. In addition, there may be changes in law related to the Base Erosion and Profit Shifting Project of the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development ("OECD"), the European Commission's state aid investigations and other initiatives. Such changes may include (but are not limited to) the taxation of operating income, investment income, dividends received or (in the specific context of withholding tax) dividends paid, or the taxation of partnerships and other pass-through entities. Any adverse developments in these and other U.S. or foreign laws or regulations, including legislative changes, judicial holdings or administrative interpretations, could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Finally, changes in the scope of our operations, including expansion to new geographies, could increase the amount of taxes to which we are subject, and could increase our effective tax rate, which could similarly adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
 The Blue Owl Operating Partnerships may directly or indirectly make distributions of cash to us substantially in excess of the amounts we use to make distributions to our stockholders and pay our expenses (including our taxes and payments by Blue Owl GP under the Tax Receivable Agreement). To the extent we do not distribute such excess cash as dividends to our stockholders, the direct or indirect holders of Common Units would benefit from any value attributable to such cash as a result of their ownership of our stock upon an exchange of their Common Units.
 Blue Owl GP receives a pro rata portion of any distributions made by the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships. Any cash received from such distributions is first be used to satisfy any tax liability and then used to make any payments required to be made by Blue Owl GP under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Subject to having available cash and subject to limitations imposed by applicable law and contractual restrictions, the Limited Partnership Agreements require the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships to make certain distributions to holders of Common Units and to Blue Owl GP pro rata to facilitate the payment of taxes with respect to the income of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships that is allocated to them. To the extent that the tax distributions we directly or indirectly receive exceed the amounts we actually require to pay taxes, Tax Receivable Agreement payments and other expenses (which is likely to be the case given that the assumed tax rate for such distributions will generally exceed our effective tax rate), we will not be required to distribute such excess cash. Our Board may, in its sole discretion, choose to use such excess cash for certain purposes, including to make distributions to the holders of our stock. Unless and until our Board chooses, in its sole discretion, to declare a distribution, we will have no obligation to distribute such cash (or other available cash other than any declared dividend) to our stockholders.
 No adjustments to the exchange ratio of Common Units for shares of our common stock will be made as a result of either (i) any cash distribution by us or (ii) any cash that we retain and do not distribute to our stockholders. To the extent we do not distribute such cash as dividends and instead, for example, hold such cash balances or use such cash for certain other purposes, this may result in shares of our stock increasing in value relative to the Common Units. The holders of Common Units may benefit from any value attributable to such cash balances if they acquire shares of our stock in an exchange of Common Units.
 Risks Related to Our Class A Shares
 The market price and trading volume of our Class A Shares may be volatile, which could result in rapid and substantial losses for holders of our Class A Shares.
 The market price of our Class A Shares is likely to be highly volatile and may be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a variety of factors. In addition, the volume of trading in our Class A Shares may fluctuate and cause significant price variations to occur. If the market price of our Class A Shares declines significantly, holders of our Class A Shares may be unable to resell

 their shares at or above their purchase price, if at all. Some of the factors that could negatively affect the price of our Class A Shares or result in fluctuations in the price or trading volume of shares of our Class A Shares include:
 • the impact of market and political conditions;
 • the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions that we may pursue, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, Blue Owl's inability to grow and manage growth profitably, and retain its key employees;
 • adverse market reaction to any indebtedness we may incur or securities we may issue in the future;
 • changes in market valuations of similar companies;
 • the financial performance of our products' portfolio companies, whether or not material to Blue Owl;
 • speculation in the press or investment community;
 • a lack of liquidity in the trading of our Class A Shares;
 • changes in applicable laws or regulations;
 • risks relating to the uncertainty of Blue Owl's projected financial information; and
 • risks related to the organic and inorganic growth of Blue Owl's business and the timing of expected business milestones.
 In addition, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies. These fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. Broad market and industry factors, as well as general economic, political, regulatory and market conditions, may negatively affect the market price of our Class A Shares, regardless of Blue Owl's actual operating performance.
 Sales of Class A Shares resulting from exchanges of Common Units pledged by our directors and officers could cause the price of our Class A Shares to decrease.
 Under our Insider Trading Policy, our directors, officers and employees may seek approval to pledge our securities under loan arrangements that meet requirements established by our audit committee, including with respect to the pledge amount, the minimum loan to value ratio and the minimum unencumbered net asset value. Each of Messrs. Ostrover and Lipschultz has pledged 43,409,692 and 33,000,000 Common Units, respectively, as security for loans. Failure or delay by a borrower to promptly meet a margin call under his loan documents or other default under these financing arrangements could result in the foreclosure on some or all of the pledged Common Units by the applicable third-party lender. Although these arrangements provide for the borrowers to pledge alternative collateral in lieu of the pledged Common Units in the event of a margin call, upon any foreclosure on Common Units and subsequent sale of the corresponding Class A Shares the price of our Class A Shares could decline materially.
 A decline in our share price could subject us to securities class action litigation.
 In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against a company following a decline in the market price of its securities. If we face such litigation, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources, which could harm its business.
 Reports published by analysts, including projections in those reports that differ from our actual results, could adversely affect the price and trading volume of our Class A Shares.
 Securities research analysts may establish and publish their own periodic projections for Blue Owl from time to time. Those projections may vary widely and may not accurately predict the results we actually achieve. Our share price may decline if our actual results do not match the projections of these securities research analysts. Similarly, if one or more of the analysts who write reports on us downgrades our stock or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our share price could decline. In addition, securities research analysts may compare Blue Owl to companies that are not appropriately

 comparable, which could lead to lower than expected valuations. If one or more analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, our share price or trading volume could decline.
 Future offerings of debt or offerings or issuances of equity securities by us may adversely affect the market price of our Class A Shares or otherwise dilute all other stockholders.
 In the future, we may attempt to obtain financing or to further increase our capital resources by issuing additional Class A Shares or offering debt or other equity securities, including commercial paper, medium-term notes, senior or subordinated notes, debt securities convertible into equity or shares of preferred stock. We also expect to grant equity awards to employees, directors, and consultants under stock incentive plans. Future acquisitions could require substantial additional capital in excess of cash from operations. We would expect to obtain the capital required for acquisitions through a combination of additional issuances of equity, corporate indebtedness and/or cash from operations.
 Issuing additional Class A Shares or other equity securities or securities convertible into equity may dilute the economic and voting rights of our existing stockholders or reduce the market price of our Class A Shares or both. Upon liquidation, holders of debt securities and preferred shares, if issued, and lenders with respect to other borrowings would receive a distribution of our available assets prior to the holders of our Class A Shares. Debt securities convertible into equity could be subject to adjustments in the conversion ratio pursuant to which certain events may increase the number of equity securities issuable upon conversion. Preferred shares, if issued, could have a preference with respect to liquidating distributions or a preference with respect to dividend payments that could limit our ability to pay dividends to the holders of our Class A Shares. Our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, which may adversely affect the amount, timing and nature of our future offerings.

 Item 1C. Cybersecurity.
 Cybersecurity Processes and Risk Assessment
 Our cybersecurity policies and processes are overseen by the Audit Committee of our Board. Our cybersecurity program is focused on (i) protecting confidential business, client, investor and employee information that we store or process; (ii) maintaining the security and availability of our systems and data; (iii) supporting compliance with applicable laws and regulations; (iv) documenting cybersecurity incidents and our responses; and (v) notification of cybersecurity incidents to, and communications with, appropriate internal and external parties.
 We have implemented an information security governance policy governing cybersecurity risk, which is designed to facilitate the protection of sensitive or confidential business, client, investor and employee information that we store or process and the maintenance of critical services and systems. Our cybersecurity program is managed by our Chief Technology Officer and Head of Technology Infrastructure (together, "IT Management"), who report to our Chief Operating Officer. IT Management and its team are responsible for implementing proactive and reactive measures, including our monitoring and alert response processes, vulnerability management, changes made to our critical systems, including software and network changes, and various other technological and administrative safeguards. Our cybersecurity processes and systems are designed to protect against unauthorized access of information, including by cyber-attacks. Our policy and processes include, as appropriate, encryption, data loss prevention technology, authentication technology, entitlement management, access control, anti-virus and anti-malware software, and transmission of data over private networks. Our processes and systems aim to prevent or mitigate two main types of cybersecurity risk: first, cybersecurity risks associated with our physical and digital devices and infrastructure, and second, cybersecurity risks associated with third parties, such as people and organizations who have access to our devices, infrastructure or confidential or sensitive information. The cybersecurity-control principles that form the basis of our cybersecurity program are informed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework.
 Our cybersecurity program includes review and assessment by third parties of the cybersecurity processes and systems. These third parties assess and report on our compliance with applicable laws and regulations and our internal incident response preparedness, including benchmarking to best practices and industry frameworks and help identify areas for continued focus and improvement. Annual penetration testing of our network, including critical systems and systems that store confidential or sensitive information, is conducted with third party consultants and vulnerabilities are reviewed and addressed by IT Management. When we engage vendors and other third-party partners who will have access to sensitive data or client systems and facilities, our infrastructure technology team assesses their cybersecurity programs and processes.
 We also provide our employees with cybersecurity awareness training at onboarding and annually, as well as interim security reminders and alerts. We conduct regular phishing tests and provide additional training as appropriate. We have a process designed to assess the cybersecurity risks associated with the engagement of third-party vendors. This assessment is conducted on the basis of, among other factors, the types of services provided and the extent and type of data accessed or processed by a third-party vendor.
 Governance and Oversight of Cybersecurity Risks
 We have developed an incident response framework to identify, assess, manage and report cybersecurity events, which is managed and implemented by our Cyber Risk Operating Committee (the "C-ROC"), a cross-functional management committee that includes our General Counsel, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Compliance Officer and IT Management. The incident response framework determines when the C-ROC should provide notifications regarding certain cybersecurity incidents, with different severity thresholds triggering notifications to different recipient groups, including senior members of management, our Audit Committee or our Board. The C-ROC is responsible for gathering information with respect to a cybersecurity incident, assessing its severity and potential responses, as well as communicating with senior management and the Audit Committee or full Board, as appropriate. This framework contemplates conducting simulated cybersecurity incident response exercises with members of senior management on an interim basis in coordination with external cyber counsel.
 Our cybersecurity program, which is overseen by the C-ROC, is managed by IT Management as part of its responsibility for enterprise-wide cybersecurity strategy, policies, implementing our monitoring and alert response processes, vulnerability management, changes made to our critical systems, including software and network changes and various other technological and administrative safeguards. The team is led by our Chief Technology Officer, who has over 25 years of experience advising

 on technology strategy, including digital transformation, cybersecurity, business analytics and infrastructure, and our Head of Technology Infrastructure, who has over 20 years of experience in the information technology field with a focus on IT risk governance and management, information security, incident response capabilities and assessing effectiveness of controls. The C-ROC meets regularly and forms cross-enterprise teams, as needed, to manage and implement key policies and initiatives of our cybersecurity program.
 Our Board has delegated the primary responsibility for oversight and review of guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, including cybersecurity risk, to the Audit Committee. Our Chief Technology Officer periodically reports to the Audit Committee as well as the full Board, as appropriate, on cybersecurity matters. Such reporting includes updates on our cybersecurity program, the external threat environment and our programs to address and mitigate the risks associated with the evolving cybersecurity threat environment. These reports also include updates on our preparedness, prevention, detection, responsiveness and recovery with respect to cyber incidents.
 Impact of Cybersecurity Risks
 In 2024, we did not experience a material cybersecurity incident, and we are not aware of any cybersecurity risks that are reasonably likely to materially affect our business. While we do not believe that our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition have been materially adversely affected by any cybersecurity incidents, we describe whether and how future incidents could have a material impact on our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition in "Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Operations—Cybersecurity risks and cyber data security incidents could adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information and confidential information in our possession and damage to our business relationships." and "Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Legal and Regulatory Environment—Increased data protection regulation may result in increased complexities and risk in connection with the operation of our business and our products." Additionally, although we have insurance coverage for cybersecurity events, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our insurance coverage or it will be enough to cover the cost associated with one or more cybersecurity events. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Legal and Regulatory Environment—We may not be able to maintain sufficient insurance to cover us for potential litigation or other risks."

 Item 2. Properties.
 Our principal executive offices are located in leased office space at 399 Park Avenue, New York, New York. We also lease office space in other cities around the world. We consider these facilities to be suitable and adequate for the management and operation of our business.

 Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
 We may from time to time be involved in litigation and claims incidental to the conduct of our business. Our business is also subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory proceedings against us. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors." We are not currently subject to any pending legal (including judicial, regulatory, administrative or arbitration) proceedings that we expect to have a material impact on our Financial Statements. However, given the inherent unpredictability of these types of proceedings and the potentially large and/or indeterminate amounts that could be sought, an adverse outcome in certain matters could have a material effect on our financial results in any particular period. See Note 8 to our Financial Statements for additional information.

 Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
 None.

 Share Repurchases in the Fourth Quarter of 2024
 On May 4, 2022, Blue Owl's Board authorized the repurchase of up to $150.0 million of Class A Shares (the "Program"). Under the Program, repurchases could be made from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The Program expired upon its terms on December 31, 2024. No shares were repurchased during the quarter ended December 31, 2024.
 On February 20, 2025, Blue Owl's Board authorized the repurchase of up to $150.0 million of Class A Shares (the "2025 Program"). Under the 2025 Program, repurchases could be made from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing and the actual numbers repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. The 2025 Program may be changed, suspended or discontinued at any time and will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the purchase of all shares available under the 2025 Program or (ii) February 28, 2027.

 Recent Transactions
 On June 6, 2024, we completed the Prima Acquisition, creating our real estate finance strategy. See Note 3 to our Financial Statements for additional information.
 On July 1, 2024, we completed the KAM Acquisition. KAM is a boutique investment management firm focused on providing asset management services to the insurance industry. KAM's capabilities in investment grade credit and real estate strategies supplement Blue Owl's existing strength in these asset classes and further accelerate our ability to bring differentiated products and strategies to the market for insurance clients. Our acquisition of KAM enhances our ability to serve the insurance market at scale and marks the official launch of Blue Owl Insurance Solutions. Working seamlessly across our investment platforms, Blue Owl Insurance Solutions combines the focused alternatives approach with expanded industry capabilities to now serve insurance clients across a broader range of their needs. See Note 3 to our Financial Statements for additional information.
 On September 30, 2024, we completed the Atalaya Acquisition. Atalaya focuses primarily on asset-based credit investments across consumer and commercial finance, corporate and real estate assets. The completion of the acquisition of Atalaya's business represents a significant expansion of Blue Owl's alternative credit presence. See Note 3 to our Financial Statements for additional information.

 On January 3, 2025, we completed the previously announced IPI Acquisition. The aggregate consideration for the IPI Acquisition was approximately $1.0 billion. We funded the IPI Acquisition through the issuance of 39,091,754 Common Units and corresponding Class C Shares and cash consideration of $204.1 million. We expect to issue additional Common Units and corresponding Class C Shares in the first half of 2025 when the purchase price is finalized.
 In addition, in connection with the IPI Acquisition, we entered into a services agreement with ICONIQ (as defined in Note 14 to our Financial Statements) (the "Services Agreement"), pursuant to which ICONIQ will provide certain services, including investment analysis and investor relations services to us or our subsidiaries. Under the terms of the Services Agreement, in 2026 we expect to issue 14,175,000 Incentive Units, subject to future targets. We also expect to issue in 2027 or 2028 a meaningful amount of additional Incentive Units pursuant to the Services Agreement, subject to the achievement of certain future targets. The Incentive Units will be fully vested upon issuance.

 As of December 31, 2024, our AUM was $251.1 billion, which included $159.8 billion of FPAUM. As of December 31, 2024, we have $22.6 billion in AUM not yet paying fees, providing over $300 million of annualized management fees once deployed. See "—Assets Under Management" for additional information, including important information on how we define these metrics.

 Business Environment
 Our business is impacted by conditions in the financial markets and economic conditions in the United States, and to a lesser extent, globally.
 We believe that our management-fee centric business model and base of Permanent Capital contribute to the resiliency of our earnings and the strength of our business growth, particularly during periods of market uncertainty and volatility, as we have seen over the past few years. During the fourth quarter of 2024, industry M&A and capital markets activity remained moderately constructive, a continuation of the improvement relative to late 2022 and early 2023.
 Over the past twelve months, 91% of our GAAP and FRE management fees were generated by Permanent Capital and the remainder was predominantly from long-dated capital, with no meaningful pressure to our asset base from redemptions. The fourth quarter of 2024 was a record fundraising quarter for Blue Owl, in which we raised $9.5 billion of equity across an increasingly diversified set of products and strategies. Inclusive of debt, we raised $18.1 billion of capital in the fourth quarter and $47.5 billion in 2024. Fundraising and capital deployment contributed to management fee growth of over 25% compared

 with the prior year. We ended the fourth quarter of 2024 with substantial available capital to deploy, reporting approximately $22.6 billion of AUM not yet paying fees.
 Subsequent to quarter end, we completed the IPI Acquisition, reflecting a significant step forward in Blue Owl's presence in the digital infrastructure ecosystem. Pro forma for the IPI Acquisition, our AUM as of December 31, 2024 was approximately $265 billion.
 The fourth quarter of 2024 was once again a very active quarter for direct lending deployment, with $13.4 billion of originations, bringing our full year gross deployment to $52.0 billion and net funded deployment of $16.6 billion. Blue Owl continued to play a significant role in new deals, add-ons and refinancings alongside the syndicated market. We were also active in deploying capital for our alternative credit strategy and insurance solutions platform. For Blue Owl, positive net deployment and ongoing capital raising remained key drivers of higher management fees.
 We continue to see attractive deployment opportunities for our GP Strategic Capital products, as capital needs across the private alternative asset management sector remain elevated. We raised incremental capital in our large-cap GP minority stakes strategy from both the institutional and private wealth channels and held an incremental close for our mid-cap minority stakes strategy, bringing this new strategy to nearly $1 billion dollars. During the fourth quarter, Blue Owl GP Stakes III completed another strip sale of certain assets within the fund, providing liquidity for existing investors while offering a creative way for new investors to access our pool of leading notable Partner Managers.
 In Real Assets, we continue to actively deploy capital in our net lease strategy across a number of scaled opportunities, with our latest fund now over 75% committed despite having just held a final close in the first quarter of 2024. Our pipeline of deployment opportunities remains robust, reflecting the very significant capital needs of corporations, and we continue to see robust demand from investors in these products. During the fourth quarter, we held an additional close for our European net lease strategy and continued to see strong interest in our non-traded REIT.
 We are continuing to closely monitor developments related to the macroeconomic factors that have contributed to market volatility, and to assess the impact of these factors on financial markets and on our business. Our future results may be adversely affected by slowdowns in fundraising activity and the pace of capital deployment, which could result in delayed management fees. It is currently not possible to predict the ultimate effects of these events on the financial markets, overall economy and our Financial Statements. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors —Risks Related to Macroeconomic Factors."
 Additionally, we intend to continue pursuing strategic acquisitions and investments to accelerate our growth and broaden our product offerings. Our acquisition strategy is centered around driving additional scale or expanding capabilities that complement or augment our existing products.

 Assets Under Management
 We present information regarding our AUM, FPAUM and various other related metrics throughout this MD&A to provide context around our fee generating revenues results, as well as indicators of the potential for future earnings from existing and new products. Our calculations of AUM and FPAUM may differ from the calculation methodologies of other asset managers, and as a result these measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers. In addition, our calculation of AUM includes amounts that are fee exempt (i.e., not subject to fees).
 As of December 31, 2024, assets under management related to us, our executives and other employees totaled approximately $4.1 billion (including $2.2 billion related to accrued carried interest). A portion of these assets under management are not charged fees.
 Composition of Assets Under Management
 Our AUM consists of FPAUM, AUM not yet paying fees, fee-exempt AUM and net appreciation and leverage in products on which fees are based on commitments or investment cost. AUM not yet paying fees generally relates to unfunded capital commitments (to the extent such commitments are not already subject to fees), undeployed debt (to the extent we earn fees based on total asset values or investment cost, inclusive of assets purchased using debt) and AUM that is subject to a temporary fee holiday. Fee-exempt AUM represents certain investments by us, our employees, other related parties and third parties, as well as certain co-investment vehicles on which we never earn fees.

 Management uses AUM not yet paying fees as an indicator of management fees that will be coming online as we deploy existing assets in products that charge fees based on deployed and not uncalled capital, as well as AUM that is currently subject to a fee holiday that will expire in the future. AUM not yet paying fees could provide over $300 million of additional annualized management fees once deployed or upon the expiration of the relevant fee holidays.

 All amounts shown as of December 31, 2024, totals may not sum due to rounding.
 Permanency and Duration of Assets Under Management
 Our capital base is heavily weighted toward Permanent Capital. We view the permanency and duration of the products that we manage as a differentiator in our industry and as a means of measuring the stability of our future revenues stream. The chart below presents the composition of our management fees by remaining product duration. Changes in these relative percentages will occur over time as the mix of products we offer changes. For example, our Real Assets products have a higher concentration in what we refer to as "long-dated" funds, or funds in which the contractual remaining life is five years or more, which in isolation may cause our percentage of management fees from Permanent Capital to decline.

 Credit. The increase in AUM for the year ended December 31, 2024 was driven by the following:
 •$27.8 billion driven by the products added in connection with the KAM Acquisition and the Atalaya Acquisition.
 •$10.9 billion new capital raised in direct lending, primarily driven by continued private wealth fundraising in OCIC and OTIC, as well as additional fundraise in other recently launched products.
 •$12.7 billion of additional net debt commitments, primarily in direct lending as we continue to opportunistically manage leverage in our BDCs.
 •$7.3 billion offsetting decrease in distributions, which primarily relates to distributions paid from our BDCs and CLOs. Redemptions and repurchases from these products were not material.
 •$3.9 billion of overall appreciation across the platform, primarily in direct lending.
 GP Strategic Capital. The increase in AUM for the year ended December 31, 2024 was driven by new capital raised of $8.7 billion, primarily in our sixth flagship minority equity stakes product and our new mid-cap minority equity stakes product, and overall appreciation primarily in our GP minority stakes strategy of $5.1 billion.
 Real Assets. The increase in AUM for the year ended December 31, 2024 was driven by $15.2 billion of products added in connection with the Prima Acquisition and the KAM Acquisition, as well as new capital raised of $4.9 billion across various products, primarily Blue Owl Real Estate Net Lease Trust ("ORENT"), our real estate investment trust, our European net lease product and Blue Owl Real Estate Fund VI ("OREF VI"), our triple net-lease drawdown product, and $4.1 billion of additional net debt commitments, primarily in OREF VI.

 (1)Information presented in the AUM through IRR columns for these vehicles is presented on a quarter lag due to these vehicles being public filers with the SEC and not yet filing their quarterly information as of our filing date. Additional information related to these vehicles can be found in their filings with the SEC, which are not part of this report.
 (2)For the purposes of calculating Gross IRR, the expense support provided to the fund would be impacted when assuming a performance excluding management fees (including Part I Fees) and Part II Fees, and therefore is not meaningful for OBDC II, OCIC and OTIC.
 (3)Blue Owl First Lien Fund is comprised of three feeder funds: Onshore Levered, Offshore Levered and Insurance Unlevered. The gross and net MoIC and IRR presented in the chart are for Onshore Levered and Insurance Unlevered as those are the largest of the levered and unlevered feeder funds. The gross and net MoIC for the Offshore Levered feeder fund is 1.42x and 1.31x, respectively. The gross and net IRR for the Offshore Levered feeder is 9.7% and 7.0%, respectively. All other values for Blue Owl First Lien Fund Levered are for Onshore Levered and Offshore Levered combined. AUM is presented as the aggregate of the three Blue Owl First Lien Fund feeders. Blue Owl First Lien Fund Unlevered Investor equity and note commitments are both treated as capital for all values.
 (4)Includes reinvested dividends and share repurchases, if applicable.
 (5)Invested capital includes capital calls, reinvested dividends and periodic investor closes, as applicable.
 (6)Realized proceeds represent the sum of all cash distributions to investors.
 (7)Unrealized value represents the product's NAV. There can be no assurance that unrealized values will be realized at the valuations indicated.
 (8)Gross MoIC is calculated by adding total realized proceeds and unrealized values of a product's investments and dividing by the total amount of invested capital. Gross MoIC is calculated before giving effect to management fees (including Part I Fees) and Part II Fees, as applicable.
 (9)Net MoIC measures the aggregate value generated by a product's investments in absolute terms. Net MoIC is calculated by adding total realized proceeds and unrealized values of a product's investments and dividing by the total amount of invested capital. Net MoIC is calculated after giving effect to management fees (including Part I Fees) and Part II Fees, as applicable, and all other expenses.
 (10)Gross IRR is an annualized since inception gross internal rate of return of cash flows to and from the product and the product's residual value at the end of the measurement period. Gross IRRs are calculated before giving effect to management fees (including Part I Fees) and Part II Fees, as applicable.
 (11)Net IRRs are calculated consistent with gross IRRs, but after giving effect to management fees (including Part I Fees) and Part II Fees, as applicable, and all other expenses. An individual investor's IRR may differ from the reported IRR based on the timing of capital transactions.

 (1)Information presented in the Invested Capital through IRR columns for these vehicles is presented on a quarter lag.
 (2)Information presented in the AUM through Total Value columns for this vehicle, as well as total return, is presented on a quarter lag due to the vehicle being a public filer with the SEC and not yet filing its quarterly information as of our filing date. Additional information related to this vehicle can be found in its filings with the SEC, which are not part of this report. MoIC and IRR are not meaningful as we consider total return to be a useful measure of the overall investment performance for this product. Total net return was 7.7%, calculated as the change in NAV per Class I share since inception (annualized) plus any distributions per share declared in the period and assumes any distributions are reinvested in accordance with our distribution reinvestment plan.
 (3)Invested capital includes investments by the general partner, capital calls, dividends reinvested, recallable capital which has been reinvested and periodic investor closes, as applicable.
 (4)Realized proceeds represent the sum of all cash distributions to all investors.
 (5)Unrealized value represents the fund's NAV. There can be no assurance that unrealized values will be realized at the valuations indicated.
 (6)Gross MoIC is calculated by adding total realized proceeds and unrealized values of a product's investments and dividing by the total amount of invested capital. Gross MoIC is calculated before giving effect to management fees and carried interest, as applicable.
 (7)Net MoIC measures the aggregate value generated by a product's investments in absolute terms. Net MoIC is calculated by adding total realized proceeds and unrealized values of a product's investments and dividing by the total amount of invested capital. Net MoIC is calculated after giving effect to management fees and carried interest, as applicable, and all other expenses.
 (8)Gross IRR is an annualized since inception gross internal rate of return of cash flows to and from the product and the product's residual value at the end of the measurement period. Gross IRRs are calculated before giving effect to management fees and carried interest, as applicable.
 (9)Net IRR is an annualized since inception net internal rate of return of cash flows to and from the product and the product's residual value at the end of the measurement period. Net IRRs reflect returns to all investors. Net IRRs are calculated after giving effect to management fees and carried interest, as applicable, and all other expenses. An individual investor's IRR may differ from the reported IRR based on the timing of capital transactions.

 Revenues, Net
 Management Fees. The increase in management fees was primarily due to the drivers below. See Note 9 to our Financial Statements for additional details on our GAAP management fees by strategy.
 • Credit increased $334.7 million, including an increase in Part I Fees of $137.4 million, due to continued fundraising and deployment of capital primarily within new and existing Credit products, as well as management fees from products relating to the KAM Acquisition of $27.9 million and Atalaya Acquisition of $19.8 million.
 • GP Strategic Capital increased $66.7 million, primarily driven by fundraising in our sixth flagship minority equity stakes product.
 • Real Assets increased $65.4 million, attributable to continued fundraising and deployment of capital within new and existing Real Assets products, primarily OREF VI and ORENT, as well as management fees from products relating to the Prima Acquisition of $11.2 million and KAM Acquisition of $7.9 million.

 Administrative, Transaction and Other Fees. The increase in administrative, transaction and other fees was driven primarily by the following:
 •$35.6 million increase in dealer manager revenues, due primarily to growth in the distribution of OCIC and ORENT.
 •$30.0 million increase in fee income earned for services provided to portfolio companies, reflecting an increase in volume of transactions on which we earn such fees.
 •$26.3 million increase in administrative fees, driven by a higher level of reimbursable compensation expenses due to growth of our products and business overall.

 Expenses
 Compensation and Benefits. Compensation and benefits expenses increased, primarily due to the following:
 •$172.5 million increase, driven by higher compensation to existing employees, as well as increased headcount due to our continued growth.
 •$56.9 million increase in our other recurring annual equity grants driven by additional grants made during the fourth quarter of 2023 in connection with year-end bonus compensation, offset by a $56.6 million decrease in acquisition-related equity-based compensation primarily due to the settlement of the Second Oak Street Earnout (as described in Note 1 to our Financial Statements) in January 2024.
 •$25.7 million offsetting decrease in acquisition-related cash compensation, primarily due to the settlement of the Second Oak Street Earnout in January 2024.
 Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets decreased $42.1 million, primarily due to corporate actions taken during the first quarter of 2023, resulting in a change of the estimated useful lives of acquired trademarks. As a result of the corporate actions, the remaining unamortized balance of the trademarks of $72.4 million was expensed through June 30, 2023. This decrease was partially offset by an increase of $32.2 million related to intangible assets acquired in the KAM Acquisition, Atalaya Acquisition and Prima Acquisition.
 General, Administrative and Other Expenses. General, administrative and other expenses increased, primarily driven by the following:
 •$61.2 million increase in Transaction Expenses, primarily due to the KAM Acquisition, Atalaya Acquisition and Prima Acquisition. See Note 3 to our Financial Statements for additional details on our Transaction Expenses by acquisition.
 •$35.9 million increase related to dealer manager expenses, due to growth in our products and business overall.
 •$73.0 million increase in other operating expenses across various categories, driven by our continued growth.

 Other Loss
 Interest and Dividend Income. The increase in interest and dividend income was driven by dividend income from the preferred equity investment made in April 2024 in Kuvare UK Holdings.
 Interest Expense. The increase in interest expense was driven by higher average debt outstanding, reflecting the issuance of the 6.250% Senior Notes due 2034 (the "2034 Notes") during the second quarter of 2024.
 Change in Warrant Liability. The change in the warrant liability for the current year period was driven by the increase in the price of our Class A Shares and the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants in November 2024. The change in the warrant liability for the prior year period was driven by the increase in the price of our Class A Shares.
 Change in Earnout Liability. The change in the earnout liability for the current year period was driven by the change in the fair value of the Prima Earnouts and KAM Earnouts (as described in Note 3 to our Financial Statements).

 Income Tax Expense
 The increase in income tax expense was due to higher pre-tax income in the current period as a result of the drivers discussed above. Please see Note 11 to our Financial Statements for a discussion of the significant tax differences that impacted our effective tax rate.

 Net (Income) Loss Attributable To Noncontrolling Interests
 Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests primarily represents the allocation to Common Units (as defined in Note 1 to our Financial Statements) of their pro rata share of the Blue Owl Operating Group's net income or loss due to the drivers discussed above. The Common Units represented an approximately 63% weighted average economic interest in the Blue Owl Operating Group for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 Non-GAAP Analysis
 In addition to presenting our results in accordance with GAAP, we present certain other financial measures that are not presented in accordance with GAAP. Management uses these measures in budgeting and to assess the operating results of our business, and we believe that this information enhances the ability of stockholders to analyze our performance from period to period. These non-GAAP financial measures supplement and should be considered in addition to and not in lieu of our GAAP results, and such measures should not be considered as indicative of our liquidity. Our non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Please see "—Non-GAAP Reconciliations" for reconciliations of these measures to the most comparable measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
 Fee-Related Earnings and Related Components
 Fee-Related Earnings is a supplemental non-GAAP measure of our core operating performance used to make operating decisions and assess our core operating results, focusing on whether our core revenue streams, primarily consisting of management fees, are sufficient to cover our core operating expenses. FRE performance revenues refers to the GAAP performance revenues that are measured and eligible to be received on a recurring basis and not dependent on realization events from the underlying investments. Management also reviews the components that comprise Fee-Related Earnings (i.e., FRE revenues and FRE expenses) on the same basis used to calculate Fee-Related Earnings, and such components are also non-GAAP measures and have been identified with the prefix "FRE" in the tables and discussion below.
 Fee-Related Earnings exclude various items that are required for the presentation of our results under GAAP, including the following: noncontrolling interests in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships; equity-based compensation expense; compensation expenses related to capital contributions in certain subsidiary holding companies that are in-turn paid as compensation to certain employees, as such contributions are not included in Fee-Related Earnings or Distributable Earnings; amortization of acquisition-related earnouts; amortization of intangible assets; "Transaction Expenses" as defined below; expense support payments and subsequent reimbursements; net gains (losses) on investments; interest and dividend income; interest expense; changes in TRA, warrant and earnout liabilities; and taxes. Transaction Expenses are expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination and other acquisitions and strategic transactions, including subsequent adjustments related to such transactions, that were not eligible to be netted against consideration or recognized as acquired assets and assumed liabilities in the relevant transactions. FRE revenues and FRE expenses also exclude DE performance revenues and related compensation expense, as well as revenues and expenses related to amounts reimbursed by our products, including administrative fees and dealer manager reallowed commissions, that have no impact to our bottom line operating results, and therefore FRE revenues and FRE expenses do not represent our total revenues or total expenses in any given period. DE performance revenues refers to GAAP performance revenues that are not FRE performance revenues.
 Distributable Earnings
 Distributable Earnings is a supplemental non-GAAP measure of operating performance that equals Fee-Related Earnings plus or minus, as relevant, DE performance revenues and related compensation, interest and dividend income, interest expense, as well as amounts payable for taxes and payments made pursuant to the TRA. Amounts payable for taxes presents the current income taxes payable, excluding the impact of tax contingency-related accrued expenses or benefits, as such amounts are included when paid or received, related to the respective period's earnings, assuming that all Distributable Earnings were allocated to the Registrant, which would occur following the exchange of all Blue Owl Operating Group Units for Class A Shares. Current income taxes payable and payments made pursuant to the TRA reflect the benefit of tax deductions that are excluded when calculating Distributable Earnings (e.g., equity-based compensation expenses, Transaction Expenses, tax goodwill, etc.). If these tax deductions were to be excluded from amounts payable for taxes, Distributable Earnings would be lower and our effective tax rate would appear to be higher, even though a lower amount of income taxes would have been paid or payable for a period's earnings. We make these adjustments when calculating Distributable Earnings to more accurately reflect the net realized earnings that are expected to be or become available for distribution or reinvestment into our business. Management believes that Distributable Earnings can be useful as a supplemental performance measure to our GAAP results assessing the amount of earnings available for distribution.

 Margins
 GAAP Margin is calculated as income before income taxes, divided by total revenues. FRE Margin is a supplemental non-GAAP measure that equals Fee-Related Earnings before net income allocated to noncontrolling interests, divided by FRE revenues. Management believes that FRE Margin can be useful as a supplemental performance measure used to make operating decisions and assess our core operating results.

 Liquidity and Capital Resources
 Overview
 We rely on management fees as the primary source of our operating liquidity. From time to time we may rely on the use of our Revolving Credit Facility between management fee collection dates, which generally occur on a quarterly basis. We may also rely on our Revolving Credit Facility for liquidity needed to fund acquisitions, which we may replace with longer-term financing, subject to market conditions.
 We ended the fourth quarter of 2024 with $152.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and approximately $1.6 billion available under our Revolving Credit Facility. Based on management's experience and our current level of liquidity and assets under management, we believe that our current liquidity position and cash generated from management fees will continue to be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital needs for at least the next 12 months.
 Over the short and long term, we may use cash and cash equivalents, issue additional debt or equity securities, or may seek other sources of liquidity to:
 • Grow our existing investment management business.
 • Expand into, or acquire, businesses that are complementary to our existing investment management business or other strategic growth initiatives.
 • Pay operating expenses, including cash compensation to our employees.
 • Repay debt obligations and interest thereon.

 • Opportunistically repurchase Class A Shares on the open market, as well as pay withholding taxes on net settled, vested RSUs.
 • Pay income taxes and amounts due under the TRA.
 • Pay dividends to holders of our Class A Shares, as well as make corresponding distributions to holders of Common Units at the Blue Owl Operating Group level.
 • Fund debt and equity investment commitments to existing or future products.
 Debt Obligations
 As of December 31, 2024, our long-term debt obligations consisted of $59.8 million aggregate principal amount of 7.397% Senior Notes due 2028 (the "2028 Notes"), $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% Senior Notes due 2031 (the "2031 Notes"), $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.375% Senior Notes due 2032 (the "2032 Notes"), $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2034 Notes and $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.125% Senior Notes due 2051 (the "2051 Notes" and, collectively with the 2028 Notes, the 2031 Notes, the 2032 Notes and the 2034 Notes, the "Notes"). We also had $130.0 million outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2024.
 We expect to use cash on hand to pay interest and principal due on our financing arrangements over time, which would reduce amounts available for dividends and distributions to our stockholders. We may choose to refinance all or a portion of any amounts outstanding on or prior to their respective maturity dates by issuing new debt, which could result in higher borrowing costs. We may also choose to repay borrowing by using proceeds from the issuance of equity or other securities, which would dilute stockholders. See Note 7 to our Financial Statements for additional information regarding our debt obligations.
 In September 2024, the Issuer (as defined in Note 7 to our Financial Statements) commenced an offer to exchange the Notes for newly issued registered notes with substantially similar terms of the respective series of Notes sought to be exchanged (the "Exchange Notes"). The Exchange Notes settled on October 28, 2024 and approximately 99.8% of the Notes had been validly tendered, which consisted of $59.8 million aggregate principal amount of 2028 Notes, $697.2 million aggregate principal amount of 2031 Notes, $397.3 million aggregate principal amount of 2032 Notes, $999.4 million aggregate principal amount of 2034 Notes and $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2051 Notes.
 Tax Receivable Agreement
 As discussed in Note 8 to our Financial Statements, we made a payment under the TRA and may in the future be required to make additional payments. As of December 31, 2024, assuming no material changes in the relevant tax law and that we generate sufficient taxable income to realize the full tax benefit of the increased amortization resulting from the increase in tax basis of certain Blue Owl Operating Group assets, we expect to pay approximately $1.5 billion under the TRA (such amount excludes the adjustment to fair value for the portion classified as contingent consideration). Future cash savings and related payments under the TRA in respect of subsequent exchanges of Blue Owl Operating Group Units for Class A or B Shares would be in addition to these amounts.
 Payments under the TRA are anticipated to increase the tax basis adjustment and, consequently, result in increasing annual amortization deductions in the taxable years of and after such increases to the original basis adjustments, and potentially will give rise to increasing tax savings with respect to such years and correspondingly increasing payments under the TRA.
 The obligation to make payments under the TRA is an obligation of Blue Owl GP, and any other corporate taxpaying entities that in the future may hold GP Units (as defined in Note 1 to our Financial Statements) and not of the Blue Owl Operating Group. We may need to incur debt to finance payments under the TRA to the extent the Blue Owl Operating Group does not distribute cash to the Registrant or Blue Owl GP in an amount sufficient to meet our obligations under the TRA.
 The actual increase in tax basis of the Blue Owl Operating Group assets resulting from an exchange or from payments under the TRA, as well as the amortization thereof and the timing and amount of payments under the TRA, will vary based upon a number of factors, including the following:
 • The amount and timing of our taxable income will impact the payments to be made under the TRA. To the extent that we do not have sufficient taxable income to utilize the amortization deductions available as a result of the increased tax basis in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships' assets, payments required under the TRA would be reduced.

 • The price of our Class A Shares at the time of any exchange will determine the actual increase in tax basis of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships' assets resulting from such exchange; payments under the TRA resulting from future exchanges, if any, will be dependent in part upon such actual increase in tax basis.
 • The composition of the Blue Owl Operating Group assets at the time of any exchange will determine the extent to which we may benefit from amortizing the increased tax basis in such assets and thus will impact the amount of future payments under the TRA resulting from any future exchanges.
 • The extent to which future exchanges are taxable will impact the extent to which we will receive an increase in tax basis of the Blue Owl Operating Group assets as a result of such exchanges, and thus will impact the benefit derived by us and the resulting payments, if any, to be made under the TRA.
 • The tax rates in effect at the time any potential tax savings are realized, which would affect the amount of any future payments under the TRA.
 Depending upon the outcome of these and other factors, payments that we may be obligated to make under the TRA in respect of exchanges could be substantial. In light of the numerous factors affecting our obligation to make payments under the TRA, the timing and amounts of any such actual payments are not reasonably ascertainable.
 Share Repurchases and RSUs Withheld for Tax Withholding
 On February 20, 2025, Blue Owl's Board authorized the 2025 Program. Under the 2025 Program, up to $150.0 million of Class A Share repurchases could be made from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing and the actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including legal
 requirements, price and economic and market conditions. The 2025 Program may be changed, suspended or discontinued at any time and will terminate upon the earlier and (i) the purchase of all shares available under the 2025 Program and (ii) February 28, 2027.
 Additionally, pursuant to the terms of our RSU agreements, upon the vesting of RSUs to employees, we may net settle awards to satisfy employee tax withholding obligations. In such instances, we cancel a number of RSUs equivalent in value to the amount of tax withholding payments that we make on behalf of employees out of available cash. During the year ended December 31, 2024, 2,150,962 RSUs with a fair value of $38.8 million were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations.
 The KAM Earnouts and the Wellfleet Earnouts (each defined in Note 3 to the Financial Statements), are classified as liabilities in our consolidated statements of financial position and represent the fair value of the obligation to make future cash payments if the respective triggering events occur. As we approach each triggering event, we generally would expect the respective liabilities to increase due to the passage of time and meeting certain revenue thresholds, which would result in mark-to-market losses being recognized in our consolidated statements of operations. To the extent we have insufficient cash on hand or that we opt to, we may rely on debt or equity financing to facilitate these transactions in the future. For additional information on these earnout liabilities, see Note 1 and Note 3 to the Financial Statements.
 The Prima Earnouts and Atalaya Earnouts (each defined in Note 3 to the Financial Statements) are payable in Class A Shares or Common Units. As we approach each Triggering Event, we generally would expect the respective liabilities to increase due to the passage of time and the achievement of certain revenue thresholds, which would result in mark-to-market losses being recognized in our consolidated statements of operations.
 Dividends and Distributions
 Starting in 2023, we moved to a fixed quarterly dividend based on our expected annual Distributable Earnings for the current fiscal year, which will be reassessed on an annual basis. For the fourth quarter of 2024, we declared a dividend of $0.18 to holders of record as of the close of business on February 19, 2025, which will be paid on February 28, 2025, bringing our full fiscal year 2024 dividends to $0.72. We set the target annual dividend for fiscal year 2025 at $0.90 per Class A Share (representing a fixed quarterly dividend of $0.225 per Class A Share), subject to the approval of the Board each quarter on or prior to each quarterly distribution date and in compliance with Delaware law, and such dividends are paid following the end of each quarter.

 We intend to increase our fixed dividend each year, in line with our expected growth in Distributable Earnings. When setting our dividend, our Board considers Blue Owl's share of Distributable Earnings, and makes adjustments as necessary or appropriate to provide for the conduct of our business, to make appropriate investments in our business and products, including funding of GP commitments and potential strategic transactions; to provide for future cash requirements such as TRA and tax-related payments, operating reserves, fixed asset purchases, purchases under the Company's share repurchase program and dividends to stockholders for any ensuing quarter; or to comply with applicable law and the Company's contractual obligations. All of the foregoing is subject to the qualification that the declaration and payment of any dividends are at the sole discretion of our Board, and our Board may change our dividend policy at any time, including, without limitation, to reduce or eliminate dividends entirely.
 The Blue Owl Operating Partnerships will make cash distributions ("Tax Distributions") to the partners of such partnerships, including to Blue Owl GP, if we determine that the taxable income of the relevant partnership will give rise to taxable income for its partners. Generally, Tax Distributions will be computed based on our estimate of the taxable income of the relevant partnership allocable to a partner multiplied by an assumed tax rate equal to the highest effective marginal combined U.S. federal, New York State and New York City income tax rates prescribed for an individual or corporate resident in New York City (taking into account certain assumptions set forth in the relevant partnership agreements). Tax Distributions will be made only to the extent distributions from the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships for the relevant year were otherwise insufficient to cover the estimated assumed tax liabilities.
 Holders of our Class A and B Shares may not always receive distributions or may receive lower distributions on a per share basis at a time when we, indirectly through Blue Owl GP, and holders of our Common Units are receiving distributions on their interests, as distributions to the Registrant and Blue Owl GP may be used to settle tax and TRA liabilities, if any, and other obligations.
 Dividends are expected to be treated as qualified dividends under current law to the extent of the Company's current and accumulated earnings and profits, with any excess dividends treated as a return of capital to the extent of a stockholder's basis, and any remaining excess generally treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of stock.
 Risks to our Liquidity
 Our ability to obtain financing provides us with additional sources of liquidity. Any new financing arrangement that we may enter into may have covenants that impose additional limitations on us, including with respect to making distributions, entering into business transactions or other matters, and may result in increased interest expense. If we are unable to secure financing on terms that are favorable to us, our business may be adversely impacted. No assurance can be given that we will be able to issue new debt, enter into new credit facilities or issue equity or other securities in the future on attractive terms or at all.
 Adverse market conditions, including from unexpectedly high and persistent inflation, an increasing interest rate environment, geopolitical events, and the current instability experienced by some financial institutions, may negatively impact our liquidity. Cash flows from management fees may be impacted by a slowdown or a decline in fundraising and deployment, as well as declines in the value of investments held in certain of our products. We hold the majority of our cash balances with a single highly rated financial institution and such balances are in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors — Risks Related to Macroeconomic Factors."

 Operating Activities. Our net cash flows from operating activities are generally comprised of management fees, less cash used for operating expenses, including interest paid on our debt obligations. One of our largest operating cash outflows generally relates to bonus expense, which are generally paid out during the first quarter of the year following the expense.

 Net cash flows from operating activities increased from the prior year period due to higher management fees, partially offset by higher operating expenses, in particular higher bonus payments made during the first quarter related to the prior year.
 Included in the year ended December 31, 2024 were the cash outflows of the portion of the Second Oak Street Earnout classified as contingent consideration in excess of the acquisition-date fair value that settled in January 2024; the amount paid up to the acquisition-date fair value was included in financing activities and the remainder (i.e., accretion since the acquisition date) was included in operating activities.
 Included in the year ended December 31, 2023 were the cash outflows of the portion of the First Oak Street Earnout classified as contingent consideration that settled in January 2023; the amount paid up to the acquisition-date fair value was included in financing activities and the remainder (i.e., accretion since the acquisition date) was included in operating activities.
 Investing Activities. Cash flows from investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 were primarily related to cash consideration paid in connection with the KAM Acquisition and Atalaya Acquisition, a preferred equity investment in Kuvare UK Holdings, investments in our products and cash outflows for office space-related leasehold improvements. In addition, investment activities included inflows from repayments on our interest-bearing revolving promissory note receivable from a product we manage that was fully repaid.
 Cash flows from investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 were primarily related to purchases of investments including funding of the promissory note from a product that we manage, cash outflows related to office space-related leasehold improvements, as well as cash consideration paid in connection with the Par Four Acquisition. In addition, investment activities included inflows from repayments on our interest-bearing revolving promissory note receivable from a product we manage.
 Financing Activities. Cash flows from financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 were primarily related to the issuance of our 2034 Notes and borrowing and repayment activity under our Revolving Credit Facility, which borrowings were used to finance the Prima Acquisition, the KAM Acquisition and the Atalaya Acquisition. In addition, we had distributions on our Common Units (noncontrolling interests) and dividends on our Class A Shares. Included in the year ended December 31, 2024 was a portion of the cash outflows related to the Second Oak Street Earnout classified as contingent consideration that settled in January 2024, as discussed above, as well as amounts paid under the TRA.
 Cash flows from financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 were primarily related to distributions on our Common Units (noncontrolling interests) and dividends on our Class A Shares. In addition, we had borrowings and repayment activity under our Revolving Credit Facility and the issuance of our 2028 Notes, the net proceeds of which borrowings were used to finance working capital needs and general capital purposes. Included in the year ended December 31, 2023, were a portion of the cash outflows related to the First Oak Street Earnout classified as contingent consideration that settled in January 2023.

 Critical Accounting Estimates
 We prepare our Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In applying many of these accounting principles, we make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in the Financial Statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates, however, are subjective and subject to change, and actual results may differ materially from our current estimates due to the inherent nature of these estimates, including geopolitical, macro-environmental and other uncertainty. For a summary of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 to our Financial Statements.

 Estimation of Fair Values
 Investments Held by our Products
 The fair value of the investments held by our products in our Credit and Real Assets platforms is the primary input to the calculation for the majority of our management fees. Management fees from our GP Strategic Capital and other Real Assets products are generally based on commitments or investment cost, so our management fees are generally not impacted by changes in the estimated fair values of investments held by these products. However, to the extent that management fees are calculated based on investment cost of the product's investments, the amount of fees that we may charge will increase or decrease from the effect of changes in the cost basis of the product's investments, including potential impairment losses. In the absence of observable market prices, we use valuation methodologies applied on a consistent basis and assumptions that we believe market participants would use to determine the fair value of the investments. For investments where little market activity exists, the determination of fair value is based on the best information available, our own assumptions, a significant degree of judgment, and the consideration of a combination of internal and external factors.
 Our products generally value their investments at fair value, as determined in good faith by each product's respective board of directors or valuation committee, as applicable, based on, among other things, the input of third party valuation firms and taking into account the nature and realizable value of any collateral, an investee's ability to make payments and its earnings, the markets in which the investee operates, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flows, current market interest rates and other relevant factors. Because such valuations are inherently uncertain, the valuations may fluctuate significantly over time due to changes in market conditions. These valuations would, in turn, have corresponding proportionate impacts on the amount of management fees that we may earn from certain products on which revenues are based on the fair value of investments.
 We carry a portion of our TRA liability at fair value, as it is contingent consideration related to the Dyal Acquisition. The valuation of this portion of the TRA liability is mostly sensitive to our expectation of future cash savings that we may ultimately realize related to our tax goodwill and other intangible assets deductions. We then apply a discount rate that we believe is appropriate given the nature of and expected timing of payments of the liability. A decrease in the discount rate assumption would result in an increase in the fair value estimate of the liability, which would have a correspondingly negative impact on our GAAP results of operations. However, payments under the TRA are ultimately only made to the extent we realize the offsetting cash savings on our income taxes due to the tax goodwill and other intangibles deduction. See Note 4 to our Financial Statements for additional details.
 The fair value of our earnout liability was determined using various significant unobservable inputs, including a discount rate and our best estimate of expected volatility and expected holding periods. Changes in the estimated fair values of this liability may have a material impacts on our results of operations in any given period, as any increases in this liability has a corresponding negative impact on our GAAP results of operations. See Note 4 to our Financial Statements for additional details.
 Preferred Equity Investment
 We have elected the fair value option on our preferred equity investment. The valuation of the preferred equity investment considers our best estimate of future cash flow, including timing of repayment, which is discounted considering the risk free rate and credit assumptions related to the underlying issuer. A decrease in the expected cash flows or increase in the discount rate assumptions would result in a decrease in the fair value of the preferred equity investment, which would have a correspondingly negative impact on our GAAP results of operations. These assumptions require a significant amount of judgment and could have a material impact on the valuation. See Note 4 to our Financial Statements for additional details.
 Equity-based Compensation
 The grant-date fair values of our RSU and Incentive Unit (both defined in Note 1 to our Financial Statements) grants, as well as the compensation-classified earnouts are generally determined using our Class A Share price on the grant date, adjusted for the lack of dividend participation during the vesting period, and the application of a discount for lack of marketability on RSUs and Incentive Units that are subject to post-vesting transfer restrictions. The higher these discounts, the lower the compensation expense taken over time for these grants.

 Deferred Tax Assets
 Substantially all of our deferred tax assets relate to goodwill and other intangible assets deductible for tax purposes, as well as payments expected to be made under the TRA. In accordance with relevant tax rules, we expect to take substantially all of these goodwill and other intangible deductions over a 15-year period following the applicable transaction. To the extent we generate insufficient taxable income to take the full deduction in any given year, we will generate a net operating loss ("NOL") that is available for us to use over an indefinite carryforward period in order to fully realize the deferred tax assets.
 When evaluating the realizability of deferred tax assets, all evidence—both positive and negative—is considered. This evidence includes, but is not limited to, expectations regarding future earnings, future reversals of existing temporary tax differences and tax planning strategies. We did not take into account any tax planning strategies when arriving at this conclusion; however, the other assumptions underlying the taxable income estimates are based on our near-term operating model. If we experience a significant decline in AUM for any extended time during the period for which these estimates relate and we do not otherwise experience offsetting growth rates in other periods, we may not generate taxable income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets and may need to record a valuation allowance. However, given the indefinite carryforward period available for NOLs and the conservative estimates used to prepare the taxable income projections, the sensitivity of our estimates and assumptions are not likely to have a material impact on our conclusion that a valuation allowance is not needed.
 Purchase Price Allocation
 We account for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, under which the purchase price of the acquisition is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with any excess consideration allocated to goodwill, using the fair values determined by management as of the acquisition date.
 Management's determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date is based on the best information available and may incorporate management's own assumptions and involve significant judgment. We use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately assign fair value to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. Assumptions in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash inflows and outflows, future fundraising and timing of new product launches, discount rates, revenue volatility and income tax rates. Our estimates for future cash flows are based on historical data, internal estimates and external sources, and are based on assumptions that are consistent with the plans and estimates we use to manage the underlying assets acquired. We estimate the useful lives of intangible assets based on the expected period over which we anticipate generating substantially all of the economic benefit from the asset. We base our estimates on assumptions we believe to be reasonable but that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that could affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results.
 Impairment Testing of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
 Our ongoing accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions when evaluating these assets for impairment. We generally undertake a qualitative review of factors that may indicate whether an impairment exists. We take into account factors such as the adverse impacts to FPAUM and management fees and general economic conditions that require judgement in deciding whether a quantitative analysis should be undertaken. Our evaluation for indicators of impairment may not capture a potential impairment, which could result in an overstatement of the carrying values of goodwill and other intangible assets. We also estimate the useful lives of our finite-lived intangible assets for purposes of amortization. The useful lives are based on our judgment of the expected future economic benefits of the assets. Changes in estimated useful lives could result in significant changes to the amount of amortization expense recognized in future periods.

 Variable Interest Entities
 The determination of whether to consolidate a variable interest entity ("VIE") under GAAP requires a significant amount of judgment concerning the degree of control over an entity by its holders of variable interests. To make these judgments, we conduct an analysis, on a case-by-case basis, of whether we are the primary beneficiary and are therefore required to consolidate an entity. We continually reconsider whether we should consolidate a VIE. Upon the occurrence of certain events, such as modifications to organizational documents and investment management agreements of our products, we will reconsider our conclusion regarding the status of an entity as a VIE. Our judgement when analyzing the status of an entity and whether we consolidate an entity could have a material impact on individual line items within our Financial Statements, as a change in our conclusion would have the effect of grossing up the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the entity being evaluated. In light of the relevantly insignificant direct and indirect investments into our products, the likelihood of a reasonable change in our estimation and judgement would likely not result in a change in our conclusions to consolidate or not consolidate any VIEs to which we have exposure.
 Impact of Changes in Accounting on Recent and Future Trends
 We believe that none of the changes to GAAP that went into effect during the year ended December 31, 2024, or that have been issued but that we have not yet adopted, are expected to materially impact our future trends.

 Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
 Our primary exposure to market risk is the indirect impact that movements in the fair value of investments in products has on our management fees. In our Credit products, our management fees are generally based on the fair value of the gross assets held by such products, and therefore changes in the fair value of those assets impact the management fees we earn in any given period. These management fees will be increased (or reduced) in direct proportion to the effect of changes in the market value of our investments in the related funds. The proportion of our management fees that are based on fair value is dependent on the number and types of investment funds in existence and the current stage of each fund's life cycle. Management fees from our GP Strategic Capital and Real Assets products, however, are generally based on capital commitments or investment cost, and therefore management fees are not materially impacted by changes in fair values of the underlying investments held by those products. To the extent that management fees are calculated based on investment cost of the product's investments, the amount of fees that we may charge will increase or decrease from the effect of changes in the cost basis of the product's investments, including potential impairment losses.
 Interest Rate Risk
 Our Notes bear interest at fixed rates. Borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate based on SOFR (or an alternative base rate at our option). An increase or decrease in interest rates by 100 basis points is not expected to have a material impact on our interest expense.
 We are also subject to interest rate risk through the investments we hold in our products. An increase in interest rates would be expected to negatively affect the fair value of investments that accrue interest income at fixed rates and therefore negatively impact net change in unrealized gains on investments of the relevant product. The actual impact is dependent on the average duration and the amount of such holdings. Conversely, investments that accrue interest at variable rates would be expected to benefit from an increase in interest rates because these investments would generate higher levels of current income. This would positively impact interest and dividend income but have an offsetting decrease in the fair value of the investments and negatively impact the net change in unrealized gains of the products. An increase in interest rates would also be expected to result in an increase in borrowing costs in any of our products that borrow funds based on floating rates. In the cases where our products pay management fees based on NAV or total assets (including assets purchased with leverage), we would expect our management fees (including Part I Fees) to experience a change in direction and magnitude corresponding to that experienced by the underlying product.
 Credit Risk
 We generally endeavor to minimize our risk of exposure by limiting to reputable financial institutions the counterparties with which we enter into financial transactions. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we held the majority of our cash balances with a single highly rated financial institution and such balances are in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. We seek to mitigate this exposure by monitoring the credit standing of these financial institutions. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors — Risks Related to Macroeconomic Factors."

 Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
 Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives.
 Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2024. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.
 Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our Financial Statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on our Financial Statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a material misstatement of our Financial Statements would be prevented or detected.
 Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024. The Company's independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, has issued an audit report on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting, which is included in the opinion starting on page F-2 of this report.
 Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 Item 9B. Other Information.
 Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans
 During the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2024, none of our directors or executive officers adopted or terminated any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of our securities to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) or any "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement."

 Internal Reorganization
 On February 20, 2025, the Board adopted resolutions authorizing the adoption of an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in connection with the Internal Reorganization. Following the Internal Reorganization, each equity holder of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships will hold solely equity of Blue Owl Holdings in the same proportion as it held the equity of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships immediately prior to the Internal Reorganization. The Internal Reorganization is expected to occur on or about April 1, 2025, following the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
 Blue Owl Capital Inc.:
 Opinions on the Consolidated Financial Statements and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of Blue Owl Capital Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in the Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013), issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
 In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
 Basis for Opinions
 The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (Item 9A). Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
 Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
 Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 Critical Audit Matters
 The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
 Recoverability of finite-lived intangible assets
 As discussed in Notes 2 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's finite-lived intangible assets balance of $2.9 billion, net of accumulated amortization, as of December 31, 2024, consist of contractual rights to earn future management fees from the acquired investment management agreements and value associated with the acquired client relationships. The Company tests finite-lived intangible assets for impairment if events occur, or circumstances change (i.e., a triggering event), indicating that the carrying amount of an intangible asset may not be recoverable. Management of the Company is required to make significant estimates and assumptions when evaluating finite-lived intangible assets for impairment. Management generally performs a qualitative review of factors including revenue growth projections, which are generally based on the amount of the fee-paying assets under management, and general economic conditions, that require judgement in deciding whether a quantitative analysis should be undertaken.
 We identified the assessment of the recoverability of finite-lived intangible assets as a critical audit matter. Specifically, a higher degree of auditor judgment was required in evaluating the Company's identification of whether a triggering event has occurred and whether there is an indication the carrying value of the intangible assets may not be recoverable. Changes in the assumptions related to revenue growth projections and general economic conditions could have a significant effect on the Company's assessment of recoverability.
 The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls over the finite-lived intangible asset impairment assessment process, including controls related to the identification of triggering events and over the Company's growth projections for revenue.
 • We inspected management's comparison of the initial revenue projections by year at the time of the business acquisition to current year revenue projections by year.
 • We evaluated the reasonableness of the revenue growth projections of the Company by comparing the projections to historical projections and actual results as well as to stated Company growth plans by strategy.
 • We evaluated the reasonableness of management's identification of triggering events and growth projections in revenue through inquiries with management on the effects of general macroeconomic and industry conditions considered in forming the projections, reading meeting minutes, inspecting other internal documentation such as board materials and fund products' legal agreements, and inspecting correspondence with the product teams of each revenue division.
 Evaluation of the fair value of certain acquired intangible assets
 As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company acquired Prima Capital Advisors Holdings LLC (Prima), Kuvare Insurance Services LP (d/b/a Kuvare Asset Management) (KAM), and the rights to investment management agreements, investor relationships, related assets and personnel from Atalaya Capital Management LP (Atalaya) on June 6, 2024, July 1, 2024, and September 30, 2024, respectively. The acquisitions were accounted for as business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting as discussed in Note 2. As discussed in Note 3, the Company acquired Prima, KAM, and Atalaya for total purchase consideration of $183.3 million, $842.2 million, and $505.8 million, respectively. In connection with the acquisitions, the Company recognized intangible assets acquired at their acquisition-date fair value. The intangible assets acquired included investment

 management agreements related to the Prima, KAM, and Atalaya acquisitions of $108.0 million, $568.0 million, and $365.0 million respectively.
 We identified the evaluation of the fair value of certain investment management agreement intangible assets acquired in the Prima, KAM, and Atalaya business combinations as a critical audit matter. Subjective and complex auditor judgment was required to evaluate certain key assumptions used to value the investment management agreements for each acquisition. The key assumptions included the projected revenue on assets under management and discount rate assumptions. The acquisition-date fair values of investment management agreements were sensitive to changes in the key assumptions. Additionally, the projected revenue on assets under management was based on expectations of future market and economic conditions that are uncertain.
 The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls over the Company's acquisition date valuation process. This included controls related to the development of the key assumptions used to value the investment management agreements for each acquisition. We evaluated the reasonableness of the projected revenue on assets under management for certain acquired investment management agreements by comparing it to the acquiree's historical revenue on assets under management. We involved valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in evaluating the discount rates used to determine the fair value of the investment management agreements for each acquisition by:
 • Independently developing a range of discount rates based on publicly available market data for comparable entities and comparing the range to the Company's discount rates
 • Recalculating the Company's determination of its weighted average cost of capital (WACC) used to determine its discount rates
 • Reconciling the Company's determination of its WACC to the Company's weighted average return on assets and internal rate of return.

 Registrant's Capital Structure
 The following table presents the number of shares of the Registrant, RSUs and warrants that were outstanding as of December 31, 2024:

 608,346,194

 Class C Shares
 579,980,769

 Class D Shares
 310,415,409

 RSUs
 35,258,030

 Class A Shares—Shares of Class A common stock that are publicly traded. Class A stockholders are entitled to dividends declared on the Class A Shares by the Registrant's board of directors (the "Board"). As of December 31, 2024, the Class A Shares and Class C Shares (collectively, the "Low-Vote Shares") represented a combined 20 % of the total voting power of all shares.
 Class B Shares—Shares of Class B common stock that are not publicly traded. Class B stockholders are entitled to dividends in the same amount per share as declared on Class A Shares. As of December 31, 2024, the Class B Shares and Class D Shares (collectively, the "High-Vote Shares") represented a combined 80 % of the total voting power of all shares.
 Class C Shares—Shares of Class C common stock that are not publicly traded. Class C stockholders do not participate in the earnings of the Registrant, as the holders of such shares participate in the economics of the Blue Owl Operating Group through their direct and indirect holdings of Common Units and Incentive Units (as defined below and subject to limitations on unvested units). For every Common Unit held directly or indirectly by non-Principals, one Class C Share is issued to grant a corresponding voting interest in the Registrant. The Class C Shares are Low-Vote Shares as described above.
 Class D Shares—Shares of Class D common stock that are not publicly traded. Class D stockholders do not participate in the earnings of the Registrant, as the holders of such shares participate in the economics of the Blue Owl Operating Group through their direct or indirect holdings of Common Units and Incentive Units (subject to limitations on unvested units). For every Common Unit held directly and indirectly by Principals, one Class D Share is issued to grant a corresponding voting interest in the Registrant. The Class D Shares are High-Vote Shares as described above.
 RSUs—The Company grants Class A restricted share units ("RSUs") to its employees and independent Board members. An RSU entitles the holder to receive a Class A Share, or cash equal to the fair value of a Class A Share at the election of the Board, upon completion of a requisite service period. RSUs granted to date do not accrue dividend equivalents. No RSUs were issued prior to the Business Combination. RSU grants are accounted for as equity-based compensation. See Note 10 for additional information.
 Warrants—The Company had warrants outstanding that were issued in connection with the Business Combination ("Private Placement Warrants"). All outstanding Private Placement Warrants were exercised in November 2024, which resulted in the issuance of 2.6 million Class A Shares.

 Blue Owl Operating Partnerships' Capital Structure
 The following table presents the interests outstanding of the Blue Owl Operating Group that were outstanding as of December 31, 2024, which interests are collectively referred to as "Blue Owl Operating Group Units":

 Units

 GP Units
 608,346,194

 Common Units
 890,396,178

 Incentive Units
 29,756,740

 GP Units—The Registrant indirectly holds a general partner interest and all of the GP Units in each of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships. The GP Units are general partner interests in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships that represent the Registrant's economic ownership in the Blue Owl Operating Group. For each Class A Share and Class B Share outstanding, the Registrant indirectly holds an equal number of GP Units. References to GP Units refer collectively to a GP Unit in each of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships. References to GP Units also include Common Units (as defined below) acquired and held directly or indirectly by the Registrant as a result of the Acquisitions and Common Units exchanged for Class A Shares.
 Common Units—Common Units are limited partner interests held by certain members of management, employees and other third parties in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships. Subject to certain restrictions, Common Units are exchangeable on a one -for-one basis for either Class A Shares (if held by a non-Principal) or Class B Shares (if held by a Principal). Common Unit exchanges may be settled in cash at the election of the Company's Exchange Committee (currently composed of independent members of the Board), and only if funded from proceeds of a new permanent equity offering. References to Common Units refer collectively to a Common Unit in each of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships, but excludes any Common Units held directly or indirectly by the Registrant. Upon an exchange of Common Units for an equal number of Class A Shares or Class B Shares, a corresponding number of Class C Shares or Class D Shares, respectively, will be cancelled. Common Unitholders are entitled to distributions in the same amount per unit as declared on GP Units.
 Incentive Units—Incentive Units are Class P limited partner interests in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships granted to certain members of management, employees and consultants (collectively, "Incentive Unit Grantees") and are generally subject to vesting conditions, as further discussed in Note 10 to the Financial Statements. Incentive Units are held indirectly through Blue Owl Management Vehicle LP on behalf of Incentive Unit Grantees. A vested Incentive Unit may convert into a Common Unit upon becoming economically equivalent on a tax basis to a Common Unit. Once vested, Incentive Unitholders are entitled to distributions in the same amount per unit as declared on GP Units and Common Units. Unvested Incentive Unitholders generally are not entitled to distributions; however, consistent with other Blue Owl Operating Group Units, unvested Incentive Units receive taxable income allocations that may subject holders to tax liabilities. As a result, Incentive Unitholders (consistent with other Blue Owl Operating Group Units) may receive tax distributions on unvested units to cover a portion or all of such tax liabilities.
 Share Repurchases and RSUs Withheld for Tax Withholding
 On May 4, 2022, the Company's Board authorized the repurchase of up to $ 150.0 million of Class A Shares. Under the repurchase program (the "Program"), repurchases could be made from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The Program expired upon its terms on December 31, 2024. There were no repurchases made under the Program during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
 On February 20, 2025, the Company's Board authorized the repurchase of up to $ 150.0 million of Class A Shares (the "2025 Program"). Under the 2025 Program, repurchases could be made from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing and the actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. The 2025 Program may be changed, suspended or discontinued at any time and will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the purchase of all shares available under the 2025 Program and (ii) February 28, 2027.

 Pursuant to the terms of the Company's RSU awards, upon the vesting of RSUs to employees, the Company net settles awards to satisfy employee tax withholding obligations. In such instances, the Company cancels a number of RSUs equivalent in value to the amount of tax withholding payments that the Company is making on behalf of employees out of available cash.
 The following table presents RSUs withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations during each of the indicated periods:

 2024
 2023
 2022

 Number of RSUs withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations
 2,150,962
 1,222,135
 194,355

 Acquisitions-Related Earnouts
 In connection with the Wellfleet Acquisition, Prima Acquisition, KAM Acquisition and Atalaya Acquisition, the Company agreed to deliver additional consideration to the sellers upon the occurrence of certain triggering events. See Note 3 for additional information.
 In connection with the Oak Street Acquisition, the Company agreed to make additional payments of cash ("Oak Street Cash Earnout") and Common Units and corresponding Class C Shares (collectively, the "Oak Street Earnout Units" and collectively with the Oak Street Cash Earnout, the "Oak Street Earnouts") in two tranches upon the occurrence of certain "Oak Street Triggering Events." The Oak Street Triggering Events were based on achieving a certain level of quarterly management fee revenues from the Company's Real Assets products. In January 2023, the Oak Street Triggering Event occurred with respect to the First Oak Street Earnout. In January 2024, the Oak Street Triggering Event occurred with respect to the Second Oak Street Earnout.
 Common Unit Exchanges
 From time to time, the Company exchanges Common Units and Class C Shares for an equal number of Class A Shares. As a result of these exchanges, the Company reallocates equity from noncontrolling interests to the Company's additional paid-in capital and records additional deferred tax assets and tax receivable agreement ("TRA") liability in connection with the exchanges. See the consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity for these amounts.

 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 Basis of Presentation
 These consolidated financial statements ("Financial Statements") are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The notes are an integral part of the Company's Financial Statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's Financial Statements have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. The Company's comprehensive income (loss) is comprised solely of consolidated net income (loss) (i.e., the Company has no other comprehensive income).
 During the third quarter of 2024, the Company revised certain Credit platform investment strategies presented in Note 9. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

 Use of Estimates
 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the Financial Statements. The most critical of these estimates are related to (i) the fair value of the investments held by the products the Company manages, as for many products, this impacts the amount of revenues the Company recognizes each period; (ii) the fair value of the preferred equity investment and equity-based compensation grants; (iii) the fair values of liabilities with respect to the TRA (the portion considered contingent consideration) and earnout liabilities; (iv) the estimate of future taxable income, which impacts the realizability and carrying amount of the Company's deferred income tax assets; (v) the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired in business combinations, as well as the determination of whether amounts paid or payable represent consideration or compensation; and (vi) the qualitative and quantitative assessments of whether impairments of intangible assets and goodwill exist. Inherent in such estimates and judgements relating to future cash flows, which include the Company's interpretation of current economic indicators and market valuations, are assumptions about the Company's strategic plans with regard to its operations. While management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the Financial Statements are reasonable and prudent, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
 Principles of Consolidation
 The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest based on the application of either the variable interest model or the voting interest model.
 An entity is considered to be a variable interest entity ("VIE") if any of the following conditions exist: (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (b) the holders of equity investment at risk, as a group, lack either the direct or indirect ability through voting rights or similar rights to make decisions that have a significant effect on the success of the entity or the obligation to absorb the expected losses or right to receive the expected residual returns, or (c) the voting rights of some equity investors are disproportionate to their obligation to absorb losses of the entity, their rights to receive returns from an entity, or both and substantially all of the entity's activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights.
 The Company is required to consolidate any VIEs for which it is the primary beneficiary. The Company is the primary beneficiary if it holds a controlling financial interest, which is defined as having (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company does not consolidate any of the products it manages, as it does not hold any direct or indirect interests in such entities that could expose the Company to an obligation to absorb losses or right to receive benefits that are more than insignificant to such entities.
 Fees that are customary and commensurate with the level of services provided by the Company, and where the Company does not hold other economic interests in the entity that would absorb more than an insignificant amount of the expected losses or returns of the entity, are not considered to be variable interests. The Company factors in all economic interests, including proportionate interests held through related parties, to determine if fees are variable interests. The Company's interests in the products it manages are primarily in the form of management fees, performance revenues, and insignificant direct or indirect equity interests, and therefore does not have variable interests in such entities.
 The Company determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE at the time it becomes involved with a VIE and continuously reconsiders that conclusion. In evaluating whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company evaluates its direct and indirect economic interests in the entity. The consolidation analysis is generally performed qualitatively; however, if the primary beneficiary is not readily determinable, a quantitative analysis may also be performed. This analysis requires judgment, including: (1) determining whether the equity investment at risk is sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (2) evaluating whether the equity holders, as a group, can make decisions that have a significant effect on the success of the entity, (3) determining whether two or more parties' equity interests should be aggregated, (4) determining whether the equity investors have proportionate voting rights to their obligations to absorb losses or rights to receive returns from an entity and (5) evaluating the nature of relationships and activities of the parties involved in determining which party within a related-party group is most closely associated with a VIE and therefore would be deemed the primary beneficiary.

 For entities that are not VIEs, the Company evaluates such entities ("VOEs") under the voting interest model. The Company consolidates VOEs where the Company controls a majority voting interest. The Company will generally not consolidate VOEs where a single investor or simple majority of third-party investors with equity have the ability to exercise substantive kick-out or participation rights.
 The Acquisitions were accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. For business combinations accounted for under the acquisition method, management recognizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. The excess of purchase price consideration over the fair value of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Management's determination of fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date is based on the best information available in the circumstances and incorporates management's own assumptions and involve a significant degree of judgment.
 Cash and Cash Equivalents
 The Company considers highly-rated liquid investments that have an original maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company holds the majority of its cash balances with a single financial institution and such balances are in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits, which exposes the Company to a certain degree of credit risk concentration.
 Investments
 Certain equity investments in the Company's products are accounted for using the equity-method of accounting, whereby the Company recognizes its share of income in current-period earnings. Distributions, when received on these investments, generally reduce the carrying value of such investments.
 Investments in loans are accounted for at amortized cost, net of an allowance for current expected credit losses. The estimate of expected credit losses considers current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. As of December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the estimates of current expected credit losses were not material.
 For certain debt and equity investments in the Company's products, the Company has elected the fair value option in order to simplify the accounting for these instruments, and therefore changes in unrealized gains or losses are included in current-period earnings. Such elections are irrevocable and are applied on an investment-by-investment basis at initial recognition.
 The Company has elected the fair value option for its preferred equity investment in Kuvare UK Holdings in order to simplify the accounting for this instrument, and therefore changes in unrealized gains or losses are included in current-period earnings within net gains (losses) on investments in the consolidated statements of operations. Dividends compound quarterly, are payable when declared, and are included within interest and dividend income in the consolidated statements of operations.
 Realized and changes in unrealized gains (losses) on investments are included within net gains (losses) on investments in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 4 for additional information.
 Leases
 The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The present value of lease payments includes expected tenant improvement allowances. The Company does not recognize right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities for leases with an initial term of one year or less. Right-of-use assets and liabilities related to operating leases are included within operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities, respectively, in the Company's consolidated statements of financial condition.

 As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The determination of an appropriate incremental borrowing rate requires judgment. The Company determines its incremental borrowing rate based on data for instruments with similar characteristics, including recently issued debt, and makes adjustments for duration and collateralization features, as well as other factors.
 Lease terms include options to extend or terminate when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. In addition, the Company separates lease and non-lease components embedded within lease agreements. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis, which consists of amortization of right-of-use assets and interest accretion on lease liabilities, over the lease term and included within general, administrative and other expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company does not have any material finance leases. See Note 5 for additional information.
 Strategic Revenue-Share Purchase Consideration
 On September 20, 2021, the Company entered into certain Agreements of Purchase and Sale (the "Strategic Revenue-Share Purchase"), whereby certain fund investors relinquished their rights to receive management fee shares with respect to certain existing and future GP Strategic Capital products. In exchange for the foregoing, the Company issued 29,701,013 Class A Shares with a fair value of $ 455.0 million and paid cash of $ 50.2 million (net of previously accrued management fee shares payable and other receivable) to such fund investors.
 The Company determined that it was not receiving a distinct good or service from the customers as a result of the Strategic Revenue-Share Purchase, and therefore determined that the consideration paid to the customers represents a reduction of the transaction price (i.e., a reduction to revenue). Accordingly, the total consideration paid was recorded within Strategic Revenue-Share Purchase consideration in the Company's consolidated statements of financial condition and is being amortized as a reduction of management fees, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. See Note 9 for additional information.
 Intangible Assets, Net and Goodwill
 The Company recognized finite-lived intangible assets and goodwill as a result of the Acquisitions. The Company's finite-lived intangible assets consist of contractual rights to earn future management fees from the acquired investment management agreements and value associated with the acquired client relationships and trademarks. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. See Note 3 for additional information.
 The Company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately assign fair value to identifiable intangible assets acquired at the acquisition date and the useful lives of those acquired intangible assets. Examples of critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets acquired include, but are not limited to, future expected cash inflows and outflows, expected useful life and discount rates. The Company's estimates for future cash flows are based on historical data, various internal estimates and certain external sources, and are based on assumptions that are consistent with the plans and estimates the Company uses to manage the underlying assets acquired. The Company estimates the useful lives of the intangible assets based on the expected period over which the Company anticipates generating economic benefit from the asset. The Company bases its estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable but that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that could affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results.
 The Company tests finite-lived intangible assets for impairment by performing a qualitative review of factors including growth projections for fee-paying assets under management, revenue, and general economic conditions, that require judgement in deciding whether there is an indication that the carrying amount of intangible assets may not be recoverable. If an indication exists a quantitative analysis would be undertaken. If an impairment exists, the Company adjusts the carrying value to equal the fair value by taking a charge through earnings. No impairments have been recognized to date on the Company's acquired intangible assets.

 Goodwill represents the excess of consideration over identifiable net assets of an acquired business. The Company tests goodwill annually for impairment. If, after assessing qualitative factors such as management fees, FPAUM and other general economic conditions, the Company believes that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the reporting unit inclusive of goodwill is less than its carrying amount, the Company will perform a quantitative assessment to determine whether an impairment exists. If an impairment exists, the Company adjusts the carrying value of goodwill so that the carrying value of the reporting unit is equal to its fair value by taking a charge through earnings. The Company also tests goodwill for impairment in other periods if an event occurs or circumstances change such that it is more-likely-than-not to reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. No impairments have been recognized to date on the Company's goodwill. The only movement in the Company's goodwill balance was related to additions related to the Acquisitions. See Note 3 for additional information.
 Fixed Assets
 Fixed assets are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization, and are included within other assets, net in the Company's consolidated statements of financial condition. Fixed assets are depreciated or amortized on a straight-line basis, with the corresponding depreciation and amortization expense included within general, administrative and other expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The estimated useful life for leasehold improvements is the lesser of the remaining lease term or the life of the asset, while other fixed assets are generally depreciated over a period of three years to seven years. The Company tests fixed assets for impairment if events or circumstances change indicating that the carrying amount of a fixed asset may not be recoverable.
 Debt Obligations, Net
 The Company's debt obligations, other than revolving credit facilities, are recorded at amortized cost, net of any debt issuance costs, discounts and premiums. Debt issuance costs are deferred and along with discounts and premiums are amortized to interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the life of the related debt instrument using the effective interest method. Unamortized debt issuance costs, discounts and premiums are written off to net losses on retirement of debt in the consolidated statements of operations when the Company prepays borrowings prior to maturity. Debt issuance costs associated with revolving credit facilities are presented within other assets, net in the consolidated statements of financial condition, and such amounts are amortized to interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the life of the related facility.
 The TRA liability represents amounts payable to certain pre-Business Combination equity holders of Owl Rock and Dyal Capital. The portion of the TRA liability related to the Dyal Acquisition is deemed contingent consideration payable to the previous owners of Dyal Capital, and therefore is carried at fair value, with changes in fair value reported within other loss in the consolidated statements of operations. The remaining portion of the TRA is carried at a value equal to the expected future payments due under the TRA. The Company recorded its initial estimate of future payments under the TRA portion that is not related to the Dyal Acquisition, including as a result of exchanges of Common Units for Class A or B Shares, as a decrease to additional paid-in capital in the consolidated statements of financial condition. Subsequent adjustments to the liability for future payments under the tax receivable agreement related to changes in estimated future tax rates or state income tax apportionment are recognized through current period earnings in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 11 for additional information.
 Warrant Liability, at Fair Value
 The Company's warrants were recorded as liabilities carried at fair value, with changes in fair value included within other loss in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.
 The Private Placement Warrants, which were exercised in November 2024, contained exercise and settlement features that may change with a change in the holder, which precluded the Private Placement Warrants from being considered indexed to the Company's own stock; therefore, the Private Placement Warrants were precluded from being classified within equity and were accounted for as derivative liabilities.

 Prior to the redemption of the Public Warrants in August 2022, the Public Warrants included a provision that, in the event of a tender offer or exchange offer made to and accepted by holders of more than 50 % of the outstanding Class A Shares, all holders of the warrants would be entitled to receive cash for their warrants. Such an event would not constitute a change in control because the Class A Shares do not represent a majority of the Registrant's voting shares. Accordingly, the Public Warrants were also precluded from being classified within equity and were accounted for as derivative liabilities. This provision also applied to the Private Placement Warrants.
 Earnout Liability, at Fair Value
 As of December 31, 2024, the earnout liability was comprised of the Wellfleet Earnouts, Prima Earnouts, KAM Earnouts and Atalaya Earnouts (each as defined in Note 3) (collectively, the "Earnouts"). As of December 31, 2023, the earnout liability was comprised of the Oak Street Cash Earnout and the Wellfleet Earnouts. The Earnouts represent contingent consideration on certain acquisitions, and are recorded at fair value, with changes in fair value included within change in earnout liability in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Earnout liabilities are derecognized when the relevant contingencies are resolved and the consideration is paid or if the contingencies are not resolved (e.g., not meeting relevant targets) and the obligations expire and upon expiration, the consideration would not be paid or payable.
 Noncontrolling Interests
 Noncontrolling interests are primarily comprised of Common Units, which are interests in the Blue Owl Operating Group not held by the Company. Certain consolidated holding companies for investment adviser subsidiaries of the Blue Owl Operating Group are partially owned by third-party investors. Such interests are also presented as noncontrolling interests.
 Allocations to noncontrolling interests in the consolidated statements of operations are based on the substantive profit-sharing arrangements in the operating agreements of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships. The Company does not record income or loss allocations to noncontrolling interests to the extent that such allocations would be provisional in nature, such as for unvested Incentive Units (other than certain minimum tax distributions). Provisional allocations to these interests would be subject to reversal in the event the unvested Incentive Units are forfeited.
 Revenue Recognition
 Revenues consist of management fees; administrative, transaction and other fees; and performance revenues. The Company recognizes revenues when such amounts are probable that a significant reversal would not occur. The Company recognizes revenue at the time of transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services (i.e., the transaction price). Under this method, revenue is based on a contract with a determinable transaction price and distinct performance obligations with probable collectability. Revenues cannot be recognized until the performance obligations are satisfied and control is transferred to the customer. In the event that payments made to the Company's customers or customers-of-customers, such as certain revenue sharing arrangements, are generally viewed as a reduction of the transaction price and therefore reduce management fees from such customers. See Note 9 for additional information.
 Management fees are recognized over the period in which the investment management services are performed because customers simultaneously consume and receive benefits continuously over time. Payment terms and fee rates of management fees vary by product but are generally collected on a quarterly basis and are not subject to clawback.
 Management fees for the Company's business development company ("BDC") products are typically based on a percentage of average fair value of gross assets excluding cash or net asset value. For certain BDCs, the management fee base may also include uncalled capital commitments. For the Company's other Credit products, management fees are typically based on gross or net asset value or investment cost, and also may include uncalled capital.

 Management fees also include a fee based on the net investment income of the Company's BDCs and similarly structured products ("Part I Fees"), which are subject to performance hurdles. Such Part I Fees are classified as management fees in the consolidated statements of operations as they are predictable and recurring in nature, not subject to repayment and cash-settled each quarter.

 Management fees for the Company's CLOs are generally based on the outstanding par value of the underlying collateral and recognized over time as the services are rendered.
 Management fees for the Company's GP minority stakes strategy are generally based on a percentage of capital committed during the investment period, and thereafter generally based on the cost of unrealized investments. For the other GP Strategic Capital strategies, management fees are generally determined based on a percentage of investment cost.

 Management fees for the Company's net lease strategy are generally based on either a percentage of capital committed and/or called during the investment period, and thereafter generally based on the cost of unrealized investments, or net asset value.
 Management fees, including Part I Fees, are generally cash settled every quarter and not subject to repayment, and therefore uncertainty underlying these fees are resolved each quarter. As such, on a quarterly basis, a subsequent significant reversal in relation to the cumulative revenue recognized is not probable for the quarter in arrears.
 As discussed above, amortization of the Strategic Revenue-Share Purchase consideration is recorded as a reduction of management fees, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.
 Administrative, Transaction and Other Fees
 Administrative, transaction and other fees primarily include fee income, administrative fees and dealer manager revenue.
 Fee income is earned for services provided to portfolio companies, which may include arrangement, syndication, origination, structuring analysis, capital structure and business plan advice and other services. The fees are generally recognized as income at the point in time when the services rendered are completed, as there is no ongoing performance requirement.
 Administrative fees represent expenses incurred by certain professionals of the Company and reimbursed by products managed by the Company. The Company may incur certain costs in connection with satisfying its performance obligations under administrative agreements – including, but not limited to, employee compensation and travel costs – for which it receives reimbursements from the products it manages. The Company reports these expenses within compensation and benefits and general, administrative and other expenses and reports the related reimbursements as revenues within administrative, transaction and other fees (i.e., on a gross basis) in the consolidated statements of operations.
 Dealer manager revenue consists of commissions earned for providing distribution services to certain products. Dealer manager revenue is recorded on an accrual basis at the point in time when the services are completed, as there is no ongoing performance requirement. A portion of dealer manager revenues represent commissions that are reallowed to third party broker-dealers. The Company reports these reallowed commission payments to third parties within general, administrative and other expenses (i.e., on a gross basis) in the consolidated statements of operations.
 Performance Revenues
 The Company is entitled to receive certain performance revenues in the form of performance fees and carried interest from the products that it manages. Performance revenues are based on the product investment performance generated over time, subject to the achievement of minimum return levels in certain products. Performance revenues from the Company's BDCs and certain other products are realized at the end of a measurement period, typically quarterly or annually. Once realized, such performance revenues are no longer subject to reversal.

 For certain non-BDC Credit and Real Assets products, and substantially all of the GP Strategic Capital products, performance revenues are in the form of carried interest that is allocated to the Company based on cumulative fund performance over time, subject to the achievement of minimum return levels in certain products. The Company recognizes carried interest only to the extent that it is not probable that a significant reversal will occur for amounts recognized. Generally, carried interest is earned after a return of all contributions and may be subject to a preferred return to investors; however, the Company is able to catch-up amounts subject to the preferred return in certain cases. Substantially all of the carried interest generated by the Company's products is allocable to investors, including certain related parties, in vehicles in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, and therefore is not included in the Company's Financial Statements.
 Compensation and Benefits
 Cash-Based Compensation
 Compensation and benefits consist of salaries, bonuses, commissions, long-term deferral programs, benefits and payroll taxes. Compensation is accrued over the related service period.
 Equity-Based Compensation
 Equity-based compensation awards are reviewed to determine whether such awards are equity-classified or liability-classified. Compensation expense related to equity-classified awards is equal to their grant-date fair value and generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the awards' requisite service period. When certain settlement features require an award to be liability-classified, compensation expense is recognized over the service period, and such amount is adjusted at each balance sheet date through the settlement date to the then current fair value of such award.
 The Company accounts for forfeitures on equity-based compensation arrangements as they occur. The Company recognizes deferred income tax benefits throughout the service period, based on the grant date fair value. Any tax deduction shortfall or windfall due to the difference between grant date fair value and the ultimate deduction taken for tax purposes is recognized at the time of settlement. Expenses related to equity-based grants to employees are included within compensation and benefits in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 10 for additional information.
 Foreign Currency
 The functional currency of the Company's foreign consolidated subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar, as their operations are considered extensions of U.S. parent operations. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured into U.S. dollars using the historical exchange rate. The profit or loss arising from foreign currency transactions are remeasured using the rate in effect on the date of any relevant transaction. Gains and losses on transactions denominated in foreign currencies due to changes in exchange rates are recorded within general, administrative and other expenses.
 Income Taxes
 Substantially all of the earnings of the Blue Owl Operating Group are subject to New York City unincorporated business tax ("UBT") and additionally, the portion of earnings allocable to the Registrant is subject to corporate tax rates at the U.S. federal and state and local levels. The Company is also subject to income tax in certain foreign jurisdictions in which it conducts business.
 Deferred income tax assets and liabilities resulting from temporary differences between the GAAP and tax bases of assets and liabilities are measured at the balance sheet date using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The Company offsets deferred income tax assets and liabilities for presentation in its consolidated statements of financial condition when such assets and liabilities are within the same taxpayer and related to the same taxing jurisdiction.

 The realization of deferred tax assets depends upon the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carryback or carryforward periods under the enacted tax law in the applicable tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance is established when management determines, based on available information, that it is more-likely-than-not that deferred income tax assets will not be realized. Significant judgment is required in determining whether a valuation allowance should be established, as well as the amount of such valuation allowance.
 The Company recognizes uncertain income tax positions when it is not more-likely-than-not a tax position will be sustained upon examination. The Company accrues any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of the income tax provision in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 11 for additional information.
 Segment Reporting
 The Company operates through one operating and reportable segment that provides asset management services to clients. The Company's, and therefore the single segment's, primary sources of revenues are management fees, which are generally based on the amount of the Company's fee-paying assets under management. The Company generates substantially all of its revenues in the United States. The accounting policies of the segment are consistent with the policies described within this Note 2.
 The Company's Chief Operating Decision Makers ("CODMs") are its Co-CEOs. The Company concluded that it has a single operating segment, as this reflects how the CODMs allocate resources and assess performance under the Company's "one-firm approach," which includes operating collaboratively across product lines, with a single expense pool. GAAP consolidated net income is the primary measure of segment operating performance. The CODMs also utilize other supplemental measures not prepared in accordance with GAAP to manage the business and allocate resources, such as budgeting and to assess the operating results of the Company's business. The measure of segment assets is reported in the consolidated statement of financial condition, as the firm is managed on a consolidated basis.
 Significant Segment Expenses
 The significant expense categories that are regularly reviewed by the CODMs are presented in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and include:
 1.Compensation and benefits: This line item encompasses all employee-related costs, including salaries, bonuses, and benefits.
 2.General, administrative and other expenses: This category includes costs related to office operations, professional services, and other administrative expenses.
 3.Interest expense: This line item reflects the cost of servicing our debt obligations.

 New Accounting Pronouncements
 The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") issued by the FASB. ASUs not listed below were not applicable, not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Financial Statements when adopted or did not have a material impact on the Company's Financial Statements upon adoption.

 Standard
 Effective Date and
Method of Adoption
 Impact on Financial Statements

 ASU 2023-07 - Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
 The guidance requires incremental disclosures related to a public entity's reportable segment disclosure requirements. The amendments are as follows:
 • Introduce a new requirement to disclose significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM").
 • Extend certain annual disclosures to interim periods.
 • Clarify single reportable segment entities must apply ASC 280 in its entirety.
 • Require disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources.
 • Permit more than one measure of segment profit or loss to be reported under certain conditions.
 The guidance does not change the definition of a segment, the method for determining segments, or the criteria for aggregating operating segments into reportable segments.

 Effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024.

A public entity should apply the amendments in this update retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements.

The Company adopted the ASU beginning with the 2024 Form 10-K.
 As a result of adopting this standard, the Company included incremental segment disclosures.

 ASU 2023-09—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
 The ASU enhances income tax disclosures for public business entities by requiring entities to disclose:
 • A tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and amounts, broken out into specific categories with certain reconciling items at or above 5% of the statutory (i.e. expected) tax further broken out by nature and/or jurisdiction.
 • Income taxes paid (net of refunds received), broken out between federal (national), state/local and foreign, and amounts paid to individual jurisdictions when 5% or more of the total income taxes are paid.
 The ASU also includes other amendments, such as replacing the term 'public entity' with 'public business entity' and the removal of certain disclosures.

 For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments in this update should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted.

The Company plans to adopt the ASU beginning with the 2025 Form 10-K.
 The guidance will result in enhanced disclosures that will improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, as well as income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction.

 ASU 2024-03—Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40); Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
 The ASU requires additional disclosures of the nature of expenses included in the income statement. The guidance requires footnote disclosures in a tabular format, disaggregating certain costs and expenses that includes any of the following expenses: (1) purchases of inventory, (2) employee compensation, (3) depreciation, (4) intangible asset amortization, and (5) depreciation.
 All public business entities are required to adopt the ASU prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027.

Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted.
 The guidance is expected to have minimal impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements presentation and disclosure because the relevant expenses are disaggregated in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 (1)Includes cash consideration paid to reimburse seller for certain pre-acquisition expenses.
 (2)Represents the fair value of the portion of the Wellfleet Earnouts determined to be contingent consideration, as further discussed below. See Note 4 for additional information on the valuation of the portion of the contingent consideration that is liability classified.
 (3)Goodwill represents the amount of total consideration in excess of net identifiable assets acquired. Approximately $ 111.5 million of the goodwill and intangible assets recognized were expected to be deductible by the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships for tax purposes.
 The acquired investment management agreements, investor relationships and trademarks had weighted-average amortization periods from the date of acquisition of 4.7 years, 8.5 years and 7.0 years, respectively.
 Wellfleet's results are included in the Company's consolidated results starting from the date the acquisition closed, April 1, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company's consolidated results included $ 19.4 million of GAAP revenues related to the acquired business. Given the Company operates through one operating and reportable segment, the impact of the Wellfleet Acquisition to GAAP consolidated net income is not tracked on a standalone basis. The Company incurred $ 3.7 million of acquisition-related costs, which costs were included within general, administrative and other expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.
 Wellfleet Earnouts
 In connection with the Wellfleet Acquisition, the Company agreed to make additional payments of cash ("Wellfleet Earnout Cash") and Class A Shares ("Wellfleet Earnout Shares" and collectively with the Wellfleet Earnout Cash, the "Wellfleet Earnouts") to the sellers in three tranches at each anniversary following the closing of the transaction for three years beginning on April 1, 2023, contingent upon the continued employment of certain employees associated with the Wellfleet Acquisition ("Wellfleet Triggering Events"). In April 2023, the Company modified the Wellfleet Earnout Shares arrangement, such that the settlement of the Wellfleet Earnout Shares would be in cash at each payment date, including the settlement of the First Wellfleet Earnouts comprised of $ 5.0 million in cash and 313,556 shares settled in cash during the second quarter of 2023. In April 2024, the Wellfleet Triggering Event occurred with respect to the Second Wellfleet Earnout comprised of $ 5.0 million in cash and 313,556 shares settled in cash. The Third Wellfleet Earnout comprised of $ 5.0 million in cash and 313,556 shares to be settled in cash remains unpaid.

 The Wellfleet Earnouts payable to non-employee sellers have been classified as contingent consideration on the Wellfleet Acquisition in; whereas, the Wellfleet Earnouts payable to individuals that are subject to ongoing employment arrangements with the Company have been classified as compensation and are being amortized over the service period. See Note 10 for additional information on the compensation-classified Wellfleet Earnout Shares.

 Prima's results are included in the Company's consolidated results starting from the date the acquisition closed, June 6, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company's consolidated results $ 11.2 million of GAAP revenues related to the acquired business. Given the Company operates through one operating and reportable segment, the impact of the Prima Acquisition to GAAP consolidated net income is not tracked on a standalone basis. The Company incurred $ 9.4 million of acquisition-related costs, which costs were included within general, administrative and other expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

 Prima Earnouts
 In connection with the Prima Acquisition, the sellers are entitled to receive additional consideration of up to $ 35.0 million (determined using a share price that was fixed at signing) (the "Prima Earnouts"), based on the performance of the acquired business during the earnout period, which period extends from the closing date to the fourth anniversary of the closing (the "Prima Earnout Period"). Earnout payments are contingent on the acquired business achieving specified revenue milestones during any rolling 12-month period ("LTM Earnout Period") within the Prima Earnout Period (the achievement of any such milestone, a "Prima Triggering Event"); provided that the first LTM Earnout Period will not occur until after June 6, 2025.

 The acquired investment management agreements had a weighted-average amortization period of 15.6 years from the date of acquisition.

 KAM's results are included in the Company's consolidated results starting from the date the acquisition closed, July 1, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company's consolidated results included $ 37.8 million of GAAP revenues related to the acquired business. Given the Company operates through one operating and reportable segment, the impact of the KAM Acquisition to GAAP consolidated net income is not tracked on a standalone basis. The Company incurred $ 37.6 million of acquisition-related costs, which costs were included within general, administrative and other expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.
 KAM Earnouts
 In connection with the KAM Acquisition, the sellers are entitled to receive additional consideration of up to $ 250.0 million (the "KAM Earnouts"), based on the acquired business achieving specified revenue growth milestones in each of calendar years 2025, 2026 and 2027 (each, a "KAM Earnout Period," and the achievement of any such milestone, a "KAM Triggering Event"). The KAM Earnouts will be paid in cash following the conclusion of each respective KAM Earnout Period.

 (3)Includes $ 3.5 million of cash consideration paid in January 2025.
 (4)Represents the fair value of contingent consideration payable to a product managed by the Company related to the Atalaya Earnouts.
 (5)Goodwill represents the amount of total consideration in excess of net identifiable assets acquired. Approximately $ 100.7 million of the goodwill and intangible assets recognized are expected to be deductible by the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships for tax purposes.

 The acquired investment management agreements and investor relationships had a weighted-average amortization period of 13.9 years and 7.2 years, respectively, from the date of acquisition.
 Atalaya's results are included in the Company's consolidated results starting from the date the acquisition closed, September 30, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company's consolidated results included $ 19.8 million of GAAP revenues related to the acquired business. Given the Company operates through one operating and reportable segment, the impact of the Atalaya Acquisition to GAAP consolidated net income is not tracked on a standalone basis. The Company incurred $ 16.1 million of acquisition-related costs, which costs were included within general, administrative and other expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.
 Atalaya Earnouts
 As part of the Atalaya Acquisition, sellers can receive up to $ 350.0 million in additional payments (the "Atalaya Earnouts") if the acquired business meets certain revenue milestones in 2026 and 2028 (each milestone achievement being an "Atalaya Triggering Event"). These payments are split into two parts: up to $ 175.0 million in 2027 based on 2026 revenues, and up to $ 175.0 million in 2029 based on 2028 revenues. If the 2027 payment is less than $ 175.0 million, there is a catch-up mechanism.
 If total payments exceed $ 175.0 million, at least $ 50.0 million (or any remaining unpaid amount) will be reallocated to non-seller employees as RSUs. The Company expects this to happen, so it estimates that earnout payments to sellers will be reduced by $ 50.0 million due to the reallocation.
 The Atalaya Earnouts will be paid in Common Units with a corresponding number of Class C Shares. Approximately 20 % of these payments will go to a product managed by the Company and are considered contingent consideration. The remaining 80 % will be payable to sellers subject to ongoing employment arrangements with the Company, and as such, these amounts have been classified as equity-based compensation. The $ 50.0 million that may be reallocated to non-seller employees as RSUs will also classified as equity-based compensation. See Note 10 for more details on these compensation-classified equity-based payments.

 Pro Forma Financial Information
 Unaudited pro forma revenues were $ 2.6 billion and $ 1.9 billion for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Unaudited pro forma net income attributable to Class A stockholders was $ 104.9 million and $ 53.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This pro forma financial information was computed by combining the historical financial information of the Company and Prima, KAM, and Atalaya as though these acquisitions were consummated as of the beginning of the year prior to the year of acquisition. Unaudited pro forma revenues also include revenues related to the IPI Acquisition, as such acquisition closed subsequent to the balance sheet date and prior to the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. Information on the total consideration (inclusive of earnout liability), net identifiable assets acquired and goodwill for the IPI Acquisition has not been presented, as the initial accounting for such acquisition is incomplete as of the date these financial statements are being issued. Accordingly, unaudited pro forma net income attributable to Class A stockholders does not include amounts related to IPI.
 These pro forma amounts assume a consistent ownership structure, annual effective tax rates and amortization of the fair value of acquired assets as of each respective acquisition date. The pro forma information does not reflect the potential benefits of cost and funding synergies, opportunities to earn additional revenues, or other factors, and therefore does not represent what the actual revenues and net income would have been had the businesses actually been combined as of the dates above.

 Fair Value Measurements Categorized within the Fair Value Hierarchy
 Fair value represents the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). The Company and the products it manages hold a variety of assets and liabilities, certain of which are not publicly traded or that are otherwise illiquid. Significant judgement and estimation go into the assumptions that drive the fair value of these assets and liabilities. The fair value of these assets and liabilities may be estimated using a combination of observed transaction prices, prices from third parties (including independent pricing services and relevant broker quotes), models or other valuation methodologies based on pricing inputs that are neither directly nor indirectly market observable. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of assets and liabilities that are determined to be illiquid or do not have readily ascertainable fair values, the estimates of fair value may differ from the values ultimately realized, and those differences can be material.
 GAAP prioritizes the level of market price observability used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of assets and liabilities and the specific characteristics of the financial assets and liabilities. Financial assets and liabilities with readily available, actively quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
 Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified and disclosed into one of the following categories based on the observability of inputs used in the determination of fair values:
 • Level I – Quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical financial assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
 • Level II – Valuations obtained from independent third-party pricing services, the use of models or other valuation methodologies based on pricing inputs that are either directly or indirectly market observable as of the measurement date. These financial assets and liabilities exhibit higher levels of liquid market observability as compared to Level III financial assets and liabilities.
 • Level III – Pricing inputs that are unobservable in the market and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial asset or liability. The inputs into the determination of fair value of financial assets and liabilities in this category may require significant management judgment or estimation. The fair value of these financial assets and liabilities may be estimated using a combination of observed transaction prices, independent pricing services, models or other valuation methodologies based on pricing inputs that are neither directly nor indirectly market observable (e.g., cash flows, implied yields).
 In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, a financial asset or liability's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial asset or liability when the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.

 Valuation Methodologies for Fair Value Measurements Categorized within Levels II and III
 Preferred Equity Investment
 The fair value of the preferred equity investment is determined using a discounted cash flow model, which estimates the present value of future expected cash flows. The key inputs in this model include the projected cash flows attributable to the preferred interest and the discount rate. The expected cash flows are based on management's forecasts and projections, taking into consideration market conditions and redemption of the preferred interest. The discount rate applied reflects the time value of money and the risks associated with the preferred interest, which includes assumptions about the risk-free rate, credit risk, and market volatility. This investment is generally classified as Level III.
 Equity Investments in the Company's Products
 The fair value of equity investments in the Company's products is determined based on the published net asset value of these investments, as such values are the price at which contributions and redemptions are effectuated on a monthly basis. These investments are generally classified as Level II. The remaining balance is generally redeemable on a monthly basis at the Company's option.
 CLOs
 The fair value of CLOs are determined based on inputs from independent pricing services. These investments are classified as Level III. The Company obtains prices from independent pricing services that utilize discounted cash flows, which take into account unobservable significant inputs, such as yield, prepayments and credit quality.

 The TRA related to the Dyal Acquisition is considered contingent consideration and is measured at fair value based on discounted future cash flows. The remaining TRA liability on the Company's consolidated statements of financial condition is not measured at fair value.
 Warrant Liability
 The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the Private Placement Warrants. The Company estimates the volatility of its Class A Shares based on the volatility implied by our peer group. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasuries for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected term of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term.
 As of December 31, 2024, the earnout liability was comprised of contingent consideration payable for the Wellfleet Earnouts, Prima Earnouts, KAM Earnouts and Atalaya Earnouts. As of December 31, 2023, the earnout liability was comprised of contingent consideration payable for the Oak Street Cash Earnout and the Wellfleet Earnouts.
 The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to value certain earnouts where revenue milestones need to be achieved before a payment is due. These models consider current progress towards revenue targets, as well as forecasts, to simulate a range of outcomes based on market inputs such as volatility. For other earnouts, the Company uses a discounted cash flow model, which estimates the present value of future expected cash flows. The key inputs in this model include the projected cash flows attributable to the respective earnout and the discount rate.

 As of December 31, 2024, the fair value of the Company's debt obligations was approximately $ 2.5 billion compared to a carrying value of $ 2.6 billion, of which $ 2.3 billion of the fair value would have been categorized as Level II within the fair value hierarchy and the remainder as Level III. As of December 31, 2023, the fair value of the Company's debt obligations was approximately $ 1.4 billion, compared to a carrying value of $ 1.7 billion, of which $ 1.2 billion of the fair value would have been categorized as Level II within the fair value hierarchy and the remainder as Level III.
 As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the portion of the TRA liability that is not carried at fair value in the Company's consolidated balance sheets was approximately $ 535.7 million and $ 358.4 million, respectively, compared to a carrying value of $ 1.3 billion and $ 763.1 million, respectively, and such fair value measurements are categorized as Level III within the fair value hierarchy.
 Management estimates that the carrying value of the Company's other financial instruments, which are not carried at fair value, approximated their fair values as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and such fair value measurements are categorized as Level III within the fair value hierarchy.

 5. LEASES
 The Company primarily has non-cancelable operating leases for its headquarters in New York and various other offices.

 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 Tax Receivable Agreement
 Pursuant to the TRA, the Company will pay 85 % of certain tax benefits, if any, that it realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of any increases in tax basis of the assets of the Blue Owl Operating Group related to the Business Combination and any subsequent exchanges of Blue Owl Operating Group Units for shares of the Registrant or cash.
 Payments under the TRA will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless (i) the Company exercises its right to terminate the TRA and pays recipients an amount representing the present value of the remaining payments, (ii) there is a change of control or (iii) the Company breaches any of the material obligations of the TRA, in which case all obligations will generally be accelerated and due as if the Company had exercised its right to terminate the TRA. In each case, if payments are accelerated, such payments will be based on certain assumptions, including that the Company will have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the deductions arising from the increased tax deductions.

 The estimate of the timing and the amount of future payments under the TRA involves several assumptions that do not account for the significant uncertainties associated with these potential payments, including an assumption that the Company will have sufficient taxable income in the relevant tax years to utilize the tax benefits that would give rise to an obligation to make payments.
 During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company made TRA payments of $ 28.2 million (including $ 2.8 million to related parties). The table below presents management's estimate as of December 31, 2024, of the maximum amounts that would be payable under the TRA assuming that the Company will have sufficient taxable income each year to fully realize the expected tax savings. In light of the numerous factors affecting the Company's obligation to make such payments, the timing and amounts of any such actual payments may differ materially from those presented in the table.

 Indemnification and Guarantee Arrangements
 In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that contain indemnities or guarantees for related parties of the Company, including the Company's products, as well as persons acting on behalf of the Company or such related parties and third parties. The terms of the indemnities and guarantees vary from contract to contract and the Company's maximum exposure under these arrangements cannot be determined or the risk of material loss is remote, and therefore no amounts have been recorded in the consolidated statements of financial condition. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these arrangements.
 Litigation
 From time to time, the Company is involved in legal actions in the ordinary course of business. Although there can be no assurance of the outcome of such legal actions, in the opinion of management, the Company does not have a potential liability related to any current legal proceeding or claim that would individually or in the aggregate materially affect its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

 10. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION
 The Company grants equity-based compensation awards in the form of RSUs and Incentive Units to its management, employees, consultants and independent members of the Board under the Amended and Restated 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, approved by stockholders on June 13, 2024 ("A&R 2021 Equity Incentive Plan"). The A&R 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, among other things, (i) increased the number of Class A Shares authorized for issuance under the previously amended Equity Incentive 2021 Plan from 101,230,522 shares to 171,930,614 shares and (ii) added an "evergreen" provision that provides for an automatic increase to the total number of Class A Shares subject to the A&R 2021 Equity Incentive Plan on the first day of each fiscal year beginning in calendar year 2025, and ending in and including 2034, by a number of Class A Shares equal to the positive difference, if any, of (a) 5 % of the aggregate number of Class A Shares and Class B Shares, in each case, outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year (assuming that all Blue Owl Operating Group Units have converted on a one -for-one basis into Class A Shares) minus (b) the aggregate number of shares that were available for the issuance of future awards under the A&R 2021 Equity Incentive Plan on such last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year, unless the administrator should decide to increase the number of shares covered by the A&R 2021 Equity Incentive Plan by a lesser amount on any such date.

 Equity-based compensation awards are generally subject to a three to five-year requisite service period, although certain grants are immediately vested at grant. The total number of Class A Shares and Blue Owl Operating Group Units, collectively, that may be issued under the A&R 2021 Equity Incentive Plan is 171,930,614, of which 71,033,196 remain available as of December 31, 2024. To the extent that an award expires or is canceled, forfeited, terminated, surrendered, exchanged or withheld to cover tax withholding obligations, the unissued awards will again be available for grant under the A&R 2021 Equity Incentive Plan.

 Incentive Units
 The grant date fair value of Incentive Units was determined using the Company's Class A Share price on the grant date, adjusted for the lack of dividend participation during the vesting period, and the application of a discount ranging from 6.0 % - 6.5 % during 2024, 6.0 % - 8.5 % during 2023 and 13 % - 18 % during 2022 for lack of marketability on certain Incentive Units that are subject to a one-year post-vesting transfer restriction. The weighted-average grant date fair value of Incentive Units granted during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $ 19.47, $ 11.27 and $ 9.93, respectively. The aggregate fair value of Incentive Units that vested during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $ 281.9 million, $ 100.1 million and $ 63.0 million, respectively. The equity-based compensation expense related to Incentive Units during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $ 212.5 million, $ 175.1 million and $ 137.1 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, unamortized expense related to Incentive Units was $ 193.3 million, with a weighted-average amortization period of 2.8 years.

 RSUs
 The grant date fair value of RSUs was determined using the Company's Class A Share price on the grant date, adjusted for the lack of dividend participation during the vesting period, and as applicable a discount ranging from 6.0 % - 11.5 % during 2024, 6.0 % - 8.5 % during 2023 and 13 % - 14 % during 2022 for lack of marketability on RSUs that are subject to a one-year post-vesting transfer restriction. The weighted-average grant date fair value of RSUs granted during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $ 20.85, $ 12.01 and $ 10.43, respectively. The aggregate fair value of RSUs that vested during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $ 72.5 million, $ 44.5 million and $ 4.0 million, respectively, which amounts are inclusive of RSUs that vested and have not yet been settled in Class A Shares. The equity-based compensation expense related to RSUs during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $ 79.0 million, $ 52.9 million and $ 35.2 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, unamortized expense related to RSUs was $ 321.3 million, with a weighted-average amortization period of 3.1 years.
 Atalaya Earnouts
 As discussed in Note 3, approximately 80 % of the Atalaya Earnouts will be paid in Common Units and corresponding Class C Shares to sellers subject to ongoing employment arrangements with the Company. This portion of the Atalaya Earnouts has been classified as equity-based compensation. Upon an Atalaya Triggering Event, any issued Common Units and Class C Shares are fully vested (i.e., no substantive vesting period following the grant date). Accordingly, the Company has begun accruing compensation expense over the service period preceding the grant date, based on the fair value of the award at the end of the reporting period, and will remeasure until the grant date. As of December 31, 2024, the estimated fair value of these awards was $ 191.3 million, including a 15.6 % discount for lack of marketability due to a two-year post-vesting transfer restriction. As of December 31, 2024, unamortized expense related to these awards was $ 177.6 million, with a weighted-average amortization period of 3.2 years.

 The grant date fair value of the Oak Street Earnout Units was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model, with the following weighted average assumptions: annualized revenue volatility of 38 %, revenue discount rate of 15 %, discount for lack of marketability of 13 % and expected holding period of approximately 2.0 years. In January 2023, the Oak Street Triggering Event occurred with respect to the First Oak Street Earnout. In January 2024, the Oak Street Triggering Event occurred with respect to the Second Oak Street Earnout.
 Wellfleet Earnout Shares
 The grant date fair value of the Wellfleet Earnout Shares treated as compensation was determined using the Company's Class A Share price on the grant date, adjusted for the lack of dividend participation during the vesting period. The weighted-average grant date fair value of the Wellfleet Earnout Shares granted during the year ended December 31, 2022 was $ 11.44.
 In April 2023, the Company modified its purchase agreement with the Wellfleet sellers, such that Wellfleet Earnout Shares will be delivered in cash in lieu of Wellfleet Earnout Shares. As a result of the modification, the Second and Third Wellfleet Earnout Shares were changed from equity-classified to liability-classified on the modification date with the liability recorded at fair value at each reporting period, with the related expense subject to a floor equal to the original grant date fair value. The First Wellfleet Earnout vested and was cash settled in April 2023 and such settlement was treated as a cash settlement of an equity-classified arrangement. In April 2024, the Wellfleet Triggering Event occurred with respect to the Second Wellfleet Earnout.

 11. INCOME TAXES
 The Company's income tax provision and related income tax assets and liabilities are based on, among other things, an estimate of the impact of the exchanges of Common Units for Class A Shares, inclusive of an analysis of tax basis and state tax implications of the Blue Owl Operating Group and their underlying assets and liabilities. The Company's estimate is based on the most recent information available and cannot be finally determined until the Company's 2024 tax returns have been filed. The tax basis and state impact of the Blue Owl Operating Group and their underlying assets and liabilities are based on estimates subject to finalization of the Company's tax returns.

 The Blue Owl Operating Partnerships are partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes subject to New York City UBT. Generally all of the income the Registrant earns will be subject to corporate-level income taxes in the United States. Substantially all of the Company's income before tax is earned in the United States.

 As of December 31, 2024, the Company has U.S. federal and UBT net operating losses of $ 175.4 million and $ 6.1 million, respectively, that can be carried forward indefinitely until they are used. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets and may recognize or adjust any valuation allowance when it is more-likely-than-not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset may not be realized. The Company believes it is more-likely-than-not that its deferred tax assets will be realized based on historic and projected earnings and the reversal of taxable temporary differences. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company has not recorded any valuation allowances.
 The Company files its tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. In the normal course of business, the tax years that remain open under the statute of limitations will be subject to examinations by the appropriate tax authorities. The Company is generally no longer subject to state or local examinations by tax authorities for tax years prior to 2020.
 As of December 31, 2024, the Company's unrecognized tax benefits, excluding related interest expense and penalties, were $ 12.7 million. If recognized, $ 12.7 million would reduce the effective tax rate. For the year ended December 31, 2024, interest and penalties on these unrecognized tax benefits of $ 0.8 million has been accrued through income tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Over the next 12 months, the Company expects that it is reasonably possible for the gross unrecognized tax benefits to increase by $ 5.0 million. Upon settlement of an audit, the change in the unrecognized tax benefit would result from payment or income statement recognition.
 The following table presents the Company's unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain tax positions:

 In connection with and subsequent to the applicable Acquisitions, the Company recognized various adjustments to deferred tax assets and liabilities within additional paid-in capital, as well as related impacts to the TRA liability, related to capital transactions. These adjustments primarily resulted from differences between the Company's GAAP and tax basis in its investment in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships, as well as portions related to the TRA liability that will eventually lead to additional tax basis in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships upon future TRA payments. The deferred tax assets will be recovered as the basis is amortized. See the Company's consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity for these amounts.

 (1)Included in the weighted-average Class A Shares outstanding are RSUs that have vested but have not been settled in Class A Shares, as such shares are issuable for no consideration. These RSUs do not participate in dividends until settled in Class A Shares. These vested RSUs totaled 11,699,282, 11,222,103 and 10,834,220 for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
 (2)The treasury stock method for warrants, which are carried at fair value, includes adjusting the numerator for changes in fair value impacting net income attributable to Blue Owl Capital Inc. for the period.
 (3)During the second quarter of 2023, the Company modified the Wellfleet Earnout Shares arrangement such that settlement of the Wellfleet Earnout Shares would be in cash at each payment date. As a result of the modification, Wellfleet Earnout Shares are excluded from basic and diluted earnings per share for years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. As of December 31, 2022, the Wellfleet Triggering Events with respect to the Wellfleet Earnout Shares had not occurred, and therefore such shares have not been included in the calculation of basic loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2022. However, had December 31, 2022 also been the end of the contingency period for the Wellfleet Earnout Shares, the Wellfleet Triggering Events would have occurred, and therefore the Wellfleet Earnout Shares have been included in the calculation of diluted loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2022, as if such shares were outstanding from the date of the Wellfleet Acquisition.

 (4)As of December 31, 2024, the Prima Triggering Event with respect to the Prima Earnouts had not occurred, and therefore the portion of such earnouts payable in Class A Shares have not been included in the calculation of basic earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2024. Had December 31, 2024, also been the end of the contingency period for the Prima Earnouts, the Prima Triggering Event would have not occurred, and therefore the Prima Earnouts have not been included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2024.
 (5)The if-converted method for these instruments includes adding back to the numerator any related income or loss allocations to noncontrolling interest, as well as any incremental tax expense or benefit had the instruments converted into Class A Shares as of the beginning of the period.
 (6)The First Oak Street Earnouts and the Second Oak Street Earnouts were settled in Common Units during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, the Oak Street Triggering Events with respect to the Second Oak Street Earnout Units had not occurred. Had December 31, 2023, been the end of the contingency period for the Second Oak Street Earnout Units, the Oak Street Triggering Event would have occurred, and therefore the Second Oak Street Earnout Units have been included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, the Oak Street Triggering Events with respect to the First and Second Oak Street Earnout Units had not occurred. Had December 31, 2022, been the end of the contingency period for the Second Oak Street Earnout Units, the Oak Street Triggering Event would have not occurred, and therefore the Second Oak Street Earnout Units have not been included in the calculation of diluted loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2022. Had December 31, 2022, also been the end of the contingency period for the First Oak Street Earnout Units, the Oak Street Triggering Events would have occurred, and therefore the First Oak Street Earnout Units have been included in the calculation of diluted loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2022.
 (7)As of December 31, 2024, the Atalaya Triggering Event with respect to the Atalaya Earnouts had not occurred. Had December 31, 2024, been the end of the contingency period for the Atalaya Earnouts, the Atalaya Triggering Event would have not occurred, and therefore the Atalaya Earnouts have not been included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 Dividend
 On February 6, 2025, the Company announced a cash dividend of $ 0.18 per Class A Share. The dividend is payable on February 28, 2025, to holders of record as of the close of business on February 19, 2025.

 On January 3, 2025, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of the business of digital infrastructure fund manager IPI Partners, LLC (the "IPI Acquisition"), a joint venture between an affiliate of ICONIQ Capital, LLC ("ICONIQ") and an affiliate of Iron Point Partners.

The Incentive Units will be fully vested upon issuance.
 Internal Reorganization
 On February 20, 2025, the Board adopted resolutions authorizing the adoption of an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in connection with an internal reorganization that is expected to occur on or about April 11, 2025, pursuant to which, among other things, Blue Owl Carry will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Blue Owl Holdings (the "Internal Reorganization"). Following the Internal Reorganization, each equity holder of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships will hold solely equity of Blue Owl Holdings in the same proportion as it held the equity of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships immediately prior to the Internal Reorganization. The Internal Reorganization is expected to occur on or about April 1, 2025, following the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
