This report contains certain forward-looking statements pertaining to KKR, including investment funds, vehicles and accounts managed by KKR and Global Atlantic. You can identify these statements by the use of words such as “opportunity,” “believe,” “think,” “expect,” “feel,” “potential,” “continue,” “may,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “seek,” “strive,” “approximately,” “predict,” “will,” “plan,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “visibility,” “positioned,” “target,” the negative version of these words, other comparable words or other statements that do not relate strictly to historical or factual matters. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, estimates, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts, including but not limited to, any statements with respect to: KKR’s business, financial condition and results of operations; the potential for future business growth; KKR’s Global Ambitions and any related initiatives; fund-level climate commitments, including any net zero commitments; sustainability data and performance metrics; KKR’s ability to grow its AUM and deploy its capital; expansion and growth opportunities and other synergies resulting from acquisitions, including of Global Atlantic, KJRM or strategic partnerships; the timing and expected impact to our business of any new investment vehicle launches, including our climate investing strategy. These forward-looking statements are based on KKR’s beliefs, assumptions and expectations, taking into account all information currently available to it. These beliefs, assumptions and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to KKR or are within its control. The use of words such as “consistent” or comparable words or other statements is not a guarantee of future performance or that any other statements to which these apply are guaranteed to occur. If a change occurs, forward-looking statements made as part of this report may differ materially from those expressed in the applicable forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include targets, goals, hypothetical or estimated results, projections and other comparable phrases and concepts that are hypothetical in nature and are shown for illustrative, informational purposes only. Except as otherwise specifically stated, this information is not intended to forecast or predict future events, but rather to show the hypothetical estimates calculated using the specific assumptions presented herein. It does not reflect any actual results, which may differ materially. No representation or warranty is made as to the reasonableness of the assumptions made or that all assumptions used in calculating the target, goal, hypothetical or estimated results have been stated or fully considered. Target, goal, hypothetical or estimated results or projections may not materialize. Certain information contained herein relating to any goals, targets, intentions, or expectations, including with respect to net-zero targets and related timelines, is subject to change, and no assurance can be given that such goals targets, intentions, or expectations will be met. Further, the information included herein does not imply that KKR sets any greenhouse gas emissions-related goals, targets, intentions, or expectations, including with respect to net-zero targets and related timelines. These statements are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties and assumptions.
All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. KKR does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date on which such statements were made, except as required by law. Certain key non-GAAP and other operating and performance measures that were used by management in making operational and resource deployment decisions as well as assessing the performance of KKR & Co. Inc.’s business for the year ended December 31, 2024 are included in this report. This presentation includes certain non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are in addition to, and not a substitute for, measures of financial and operating performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We also caution readers that these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the calculations made by other investment managers, and as a result, may not be directly comparable to similarly titled financial measures presented by other investment managers. While we believe that providing these non-GAAP measures is helpful to investors in assessing the overall performance of KKR’s business, they may not include all items that are significant to an investor’s analysis of our financial results. Please see the 2024 10-K for definitions ascribed to our key non-GAAP and other operating and performance measures, a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures, cautionary disclosures relating to forward-looking statements, and other important information about KKR.
The SDGs are aspirational in nature. The analysis involved in determining whether and how certain initiatives may contribute to the SDGs is inherently subjective and dependent on a number of factors. There can be no assurance that reasonable parties will agree on a decision as to whether certain projects or investments contribute to a particular SDG. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on KKR’s application of the SDGs, as such application is subject to change at any time and in KKR’s sole discretion. Further, statistics and metrics relating to sustainability matters, including greenhouse gas (“GHG”) metrics, are estimates and may be based on assumptions or developing standards (including KKR’s internal standards and policies) and, as a result, may be hypothetical in nature and may vary materially. Such statistics and metrics, including those relating to our financed emissions and the number of portfolio companies associated with such emissions, are subject to change in the future.
Similarly, there can be no assurance that KKR’s policies and procedures as described in this report, including policies and procedures related to sustainability or the application of sustainability-related criteria or reviews to the investment process, including the Real Estate Credit sustainability checklist, the Responsible Investment Credit Scorecard or any other scorecard, will continue; such policies and procedures could change, even materially, or may not be applied to a particular investment. The Real Estate Credit sustainability checklist is not a determining factor for the investment decisions of the Investment Committee. The degree of influence that the sustainability checklist and scorecards have on the investment process varies based on the applicable investment strategy and may otherwise vary on a case-to-case basis. The actual investment process used for any particular investment may differ materially from the process described herein. Further, the summaries of pre- and post-investment key activities presented herein are for illustrative purposes only and have been selected in order to provide examples of KKR’s responsible investment approach with respect to each asset class and do not purport to be a complete description thereof. KKR is permitted to determine in its discretion that it is not feasible or practical to implement or complete certain of its sustainability-related policies and procedures based on cost, timing, or other considerations. Certain information contained herein relating to any Sustainability, Impact, Responsible Investment initiatives or other similar industry frameworks is subject to change, and no assurance can be given that KKR will remain a signatory, supporter, or member of such initiatives or other similar industry frameworks.
References herein to “sustainability” considerations, factors, topics, issues, risks, opportunities, or other comparable words or other statements, refer to environmental, social, and governance factors. Statements about sustainability initiatives or practices related to portfolio companies do not apply in every instance and depend on factors including, but not limited to, the relevance or implementation status of an sustainability initiative to or within the portfolio company; the nature and/or extent of investment in, ownership of or, control or influence exercised by KKR with respect to the portfolio company; and other factors as determined by investment teams, corporate groups, asset management teams, portfolio operations teams, companies, investments, and/or businesses on a case-by-case basis. Sustainability factors are only some of the many factors KKR considers in evaluating an investment, and there is no guarantee that consideration of sustainability factors will enhance long-term value and financial returns for fund investors. To the extent KKR engages with portfolio companies on sustainability-related practices and potential enhancements thereto, there is no guarantee that such engagements will improve the financial performance or risk profile of the investment. In addition, the act of identifying and evaluating material sustainability factors is subjective by nature, and there is no guarantee that the criteria utilized or judgment exercised by KKR will correlate with the perceived material sustainability risks, views, internal policies or preferred practices of investors, other asset managers or with market trends.
Except where opinions and views are expressly attributed to individuals, general discussions contained within this report regarding the market or market conditions represent the view of the source cited or KKR. Nothing contained herein is intended to predict the performance of any investment. There can be no assurance that actual outcomes will match the assumptions or that actual returns will match any expected returns.
Case studies presented herein are for illustrative purposes only, and have been selected in order to provide examples illustrating KKR’s application of its sustainability policies and procedures with respect to its portfolio investments and do not purport to be a complete list thereof. It should not be assumed that investments made in the future will be comparable in quality or performance to the investments described herein. Further, the specific investments discussed herein are not representative of all of the securities purchased, sold or recommended by KKR, and it should not be assumed that the investment in the companies identified was or will be profitable. References to the investments included in the illustrative case studies should not be construed as a recommendation of any particular investment or security. Certain information was provided by third parties and certain statements reflect KKR’s beliefs as of the date hereof based on prior experience and certain assumptions that KKR believes are reasonable, but may prove incorrect. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Descriptions of any sustainability or impact achievements or improved practices or outcomes are not necessarily intended to indicate that KKR has substantially contributed to such achievements, practices, or outcomes. For instance, KKR’s sustainability efforts may have been one of many factors — including such other factors as engagement by portfolio company management, advisors, and other third parties — contributing to the success described in each of the selected case studies. Further, the receipt of any awards or designations by KKR, KKR & Co. Inc, or the portfolio companies described herein is no assurance that KKR’s investment objectives have been achieved or successful. Further, such awards are not, and should not be deemed to be, a recommendation or evaluation of KKR’s investment management business. Any such awards or designations presented herein are the opinion of the respective parties conferring the award or designation and not of KKR, KKR & Co. Inc, or portfolio company. KKR, KKR & Co. Inc, or portfolio company may have paid a fee to participate in such awards or assessments. The receipt of compensation influences, and is likely to present a potential material conflict of interest, relating to any granted award or designation. There can be no assurance that other providers or surveys would reach the same conclusions.
Certain information contained herein has been obtained from third parties, and in certain cases have not been updated through the date hereof. While these third party sources are believed to be reliable, KKR does not give any representation or warranty as to the accuracy, adequacy, timeliness or completeness of any of such information, assumes no responsibility for independent verification of such information, and expressly disclaims any responsibility or liability therefor.
In this report, we are not using such terms as “material” or “materiality” as they are used under the securities or other laws of the U.S. or any other jurisdiction, or as they are used in the context of financial statements and financial reporting. Materiality, for purposes of this report should not, therefore, be read as equating to any use of the word in other KKR reporting or statements. “Material” sustainability issues are defined as those issues that KKR, in its sole discretion, determines to have — or have the potential to have — a substantial impact on an organization’s ability to create or preserve economic value. Any discussion of sustainability-related topics that are potentially material to a portfolio company refers only to the materiality of such topic to a portfolio company and does not imply or indicate that such topic is material to KKR or KKR & Co. Inc.
Any discussion of specific KKR entities other than KKR & Co. Inc. is provided solely to demonstrate such entities’ role within the KKR organization and their contributions to the business, operations and financial results of KKR. Each KKR entity is responsible for its own financial, contractual and legal obligations.

In this document, views and other statements regarding the impact of initiatives in which KKR Capstone has been involved are based on KKR Capstone’s internal analysis and information provided by the applicable portfolio company. Such views and statements are based on estimates regarding the impact of such initiatives that have not been verified by a third party and are not based on any established standards or protocols. They can also reflect the influence of external factors, such as macroeconomic or industry trends, that are unrelated to the initiative presented.
