KKR & CO. INC. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) (Amounts in Thousands) The following presents the portion of the consolidated balances provided in the consolidated statements of financial condition attributable to consolidated variable interest entities ("VIEs"). As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, KKR's consolidated VIEs consist primarily of (i) certain collateralized financing entities ("CFEs") including those CFEs holding collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs"), (ii) certain investment funds, and (iii) certain VIEs formed by Global Atlantic. The noteholders, creditors, and equity holders of these VIEs have no recourse to the assets of any other KKR entity. With respect to consolidated CFEs and certain investment funds, the following assets may only be used to settle obligations of these consolidated VIEs and the following liabilities are only the obligations of these consolidated VIEs and not generally to KKR. Additionally, KKR has no right to the benefits from, nor does KKR bear the risks associated with, the assets held by these VIEs beyond KKR's beneficial interest therein and any income generated from the VIEs. There are neither explicit arrangements nor does KKR hold implicit variable interests that would require KKR to provide any material ongoing financial support to the consolidated VIEs, beyond amounts previously committed to them, if any. With respect to certain other VIEs consolidated by Global Atlantic, Global Atlantic has formed certain VIEs to either (i) hold investments, including fixed maturity securities, consumer and other loans, renewable energy, transportation, and real estate, or (ii) to conduct certain reinsurance activities with third party commitments. These VIEs issue beneficial interests primarily to Global Atlantic’s insurance companies. _March 31, 2026_ | Line item | Consolidated CFEs | Consolidated Funds and Other Investment Vehicles | Other VIEs | Total | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Assets | | | | | | Asset Management and Strategic Holdings | | | | | | Cash and Cash Equivalents | $2,795,409 | $1,243,372 | $— | $4,038,781 | | Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents | — | 41,631 | — | 41,631 | | Investments | 30,356,670 | 77,465,073 | — | 107,821,743 | | Other Assets | 890,256 | 478,745 | — | 1,369,001 | | | 34,042,335 | 79,228,821 | — | 113,271,156 | | Insurance | | | | | | Cash and Cash Equivalents | — | — | 1,695,789 | 1,695,789 | | Investments | — | — | 30,460,274 | 30,460,274 | | Other Assets | — | — | 973,676 | 973,676 | | | — | — | 33,129,739 | 33,129,739 | | Total Assets | $34,042,335 | $79,228,821 | $33,129,739 | $146,400,895 | | Liabilities | | | | | | Asset Management and Strategic Holdings | | | | | | Debt Obligations | $30,012,515 | $6,990,566 | $— | $37,003,081 | | Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities | 2,437,163 | 791,552 | — | 3,228,715 | | | 32,449,678 | 7,782,118 | — | 40,231,796 | | Insurance | | | | | | Debt Obligations | — | — | 207,400 | 207,400 | | Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities | — | — | 619,457 | 619,457 | | | — | — | 826,857 | 826,857 | | Total Liabilities | $32,449,678 | $7,782,118 | $826,857 | $41,058,653 | KKR & CO.

KKR & CO. INC. ### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (All Amounts in Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data, and Except Where Noted) 1. ORGANIZATION KKR & Co. Inc. (NYSE: KKR), through its subsidiaries (collectively, "KKR"), is a leading global investment firm that offers alternative asset management as well as capital markets and insurance solutions. KKR aims to generate attractive investment returns by following a patient and disciplined investment approach, employing world-class people, and supporting growth in its portfolio companies and communities. KKR sponsors investment funds that invest in private equity, credit, and real assets and has strategic partners that manage hedge funds. KKR’s insurance subsidiaries offer retirement, life, and reinsurance products under the management of The Global Atlantic Financial Group LLC ("TGAFG" and, together with its insurance companies and other subsidiaries, "Global Atlantic").    KKR & Co. Inc. is the parent company of KKR Group Co. Inc., which in turn owns KKR Group Holdings Corp., which is the general partner of KKR Group Partnership L.P. ("KKR Group Partnership"). KKR & Co. Inc. both indirectly controls KKR Group Partnership and indirectly holds Class A partner interests in KKR Group Partnership ("KKR Group Partnership Units") representing economic interests in KKR's business. As of March 31, 2026, KKR & Co. Inc. held indirectly approximately 98.8% of the KKR Group Partnership Units. The remaining balance is held indirectly by KKR current and former employees through restricted holdings units representing an ownership interest in KKR Group Partnership Units, which may be exchanged for shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. ("exchangeable securities"). As limited partner interests, these KKR Group Partnership Units are non-voting and do not entitle anyone other than KKR to manage its business and affairs. KKR Group Partnership also has outstanding limited partner interests that provide for a carry pool provided by KKR Associates Holdings L.P. ("Associates Holdings") and outstanding preferred units with economic terms that mirror the KKR & Co. Inc. 6.25% Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock”). In this report, references to "KKR," refer to KKR & Co. Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Global Atlantic, unless the context requires otherwise, especially in sections where "KKR" is intended to refer to the asset management and strategic holdings businesses only. References to our "funds," "vehicles" or "investment vehicles" refer to a wide array of investment funds, vehicles, and accounts that are advised, managed or sponsored by one or more subsidiaries of KKR, including collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs"), certain operating companies and business development companies ("BDCs"), unless the context requires otherwise. Reorganization Agreement On October 8, 2021, KKR entered into a Reorganization Agreement (the "Reorganization Agreement") with KKR Holdings L.P. ("KKR Holdings"), KKR Management LLP (which holds the sole outstanding share of Series I preferred stock), Associates Holdings, and the other parties thereto. Pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, the parties agreed to undertake a series of integrated transactions to effect a number of transformative structural and governance changes, some of which were completed on May 31, 2022, and other changes to be completed in the future. On May 31, 2022, KKR completed the merger transactions ("Reorganization Mergers") contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement pursuant to which KKR acquired KKR Holdings (which changed its name to KKR Group Holdings L.P.) and all of the KKR Group Partnership Units held by it. Pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, the following transactions will occur in the future on the Sunset Date (as defined below): i.the control of KKR & Co. Inc. by KKR Management LLP and the Series I Preferred Stock held by it will be eliminated, ii.the voting rights for all common stock of KKR & Co. Inc., including with respect to the election of directors, will be established on a one vote per share basis, and iii.KKR will acquire control of Associates Holdings, the entity providing for the allocation of carry proceeds to KKR employees, also known as the carry pool. The “Sunset Date” will be the earlier of (i) December 31, 2026 and (ii) the six-month anniversary of the first date on which the death or permanent disability of both Mr. Henry Kravis and Mr. George Roberts (collectively, "Co-Founders") has occurred (or any earlier date consented to by KKR Management LLP in its sole discretion). In addition, KKR Management LLP agreed not to transfer its ownership of the sole share of Series I Preferred Stock, and, the changes to occur effective on the Sunset Date are unconditional commitments of the parties to the Reorganization Agreement.  2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited financial statements of KKR & Co. Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The condensed consolidated financial statements (referred to hereafter as the "financial statements"), including these notes, are unaudited and exclude some of the disclosures required in annual financial statements. Management believes it has made all necessary adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) such that the financial statements are presented fairly and that estimates made in preparing the financial statements are reasonable and prudent. The operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2025 were derived from audited financial statements included in KKR & Co. Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 27, 2026 (our "Annual Report"), and the financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included therein. Additionally, in the accompanying financial statements, the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition are referred to hereafter as the "consolidated statements of financial condition"; the condensed consolidated statements of operations are referred to hereafter as the "consolidated statements of operations"; the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) are referred to hereafter as the "consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss)"; the condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity are referred to hereafter as the "consolidated statements of changes in equity"; and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows are referred to hereafter as the "consolidated statements of cash flows." KKR consolidates the financial results of KKR Group Partnership and its consolidated entities, which include the accounts of KKR's investment management and capital markets companies, the general partners of certain unconsolidated investment funds, general partners of consolidated investment funds and their respective consolidated investment funds, Global Atlantic’s insurance companies and certain other entities including CFEs. The presentations in the consolidated statement of financial condition and consolidated statement of operations reflect the significant industry diversification of KKR by its acquisition of Global Atlantic. Global Atlantic operates an insurance business, and KKR operates an asset management business, which manages the operations of the Strategic Holdings segment (see Note 21 "Segment Reporting" of our financial statements), each of which possess distinct characteristics. As a result, KKR developed a two-tiered approach for the financial statements presentation, where Global Atlantic's insurance operations are presented separately from KKR's asset management business. KKR believes that these separate presentations provide a more informative view of the consolidated financial position and results of operations than traditional aggregated presentations and that reporting Global Atlantic’s insurance operations separately is appropriate given, among other factors, the relative significance of Global Atlantic’s policy liabilities, which are only obligations of the insurance companies that issued or assumed them. If a traditional aggregate presentation were to be used, KKR would expect to eliminate or combine several identical or similar captions, which would condense the presentations, but would also reduce the level of information presented. KKR also believes that using a traditional aggregate presentation would result in no new line items compared to the two-tier presentation included in the financial statements in this report. In the ordinary course of business, KKR’s Asset Management business, Strategic Holdings business and Insurance business enter into transactions with each other, which may include transactions pursuant to their investment management agreements and certain financing arrangements. The borrowings from these financing arrangements are non-recourse to KKR beyond the assets designated to support such borrowings. All of the investment management and financing arrangements amongst KKR segments are eliminated in consolidation. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. When the Insurance business makes an investment in an entity consolidated by the Asset Management business, the investment is eliminated from the investment balance in the Insurance tier in the presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Certain prior period amounts in the accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation, including the realignment of prior period investment categories to the current year investment category presentation within Notes 4, 7, 9, and 10. For a detailed discussion about KKR’s significant accounting policies and for further information on accounting updates adopted in the prior year, see Note 2 to the financial statements in the Annual Report. Other than the items listed below, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were no significant updates to KKR’s significant accounting policies. Effective beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the Company changed the presentation of certain operating expenses in its Consolidated Statements of Operations. Amounts previously presented separately as “Insurance Expenses” and “General, Administrative and Other” are now presented in a single line item, “Policy and Other Operating Expense”. Prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-period presentation. This change in presentation had no impact on previously reported consolidated total expenses, income before taxes, and net income attributable to KKR. Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the recognition and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, investment income (loss) and income taxes during the reporting periods. Such estimates include but are not limited to (i) the valuation of investments and financial instruments, (ii) the determination of the income tax provision, (iii) the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, (iv) the impairment of available-for-sale investments, (v) the valuation of insurance policy liabilities, including market risk benefits, (vi) the valuation of embedded derivatives in policy liabilities and funds withheld, and (vii) the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Certain events particular to each industry and country or region in which the portfolio companies conduct their operations, as well as general market, economic, political, geopolitical (including uncertainties resulting from changes to U.S. and global tariff policies, escalating trade tensions, and impacts from the recent conflicts in the Middle East), and regulatory conditions, and natural disasters and catastrophes, including public health crises, may have a significant negative impact on KKR’s investments and profitability. Such events are beyond KKR’s control, and the likelihood that they may occur and the effect on KKR's use of estimates cannot be predicted. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the financial statements. Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025–05, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets” (“ASU 2025–05”). ASU 2025–05 simplifies the application of the current expected credit loss model for current accounts receivable and current contract assets under ASC 606. KKR adopted this accounting standard effective for the year ended December 31, 2026, and its adoption did not have a material impact on KKR’s consolidated financial statements. Future Application of Accounting Standards Expense Disaggregation Disclosures In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024–03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024–03”). ASU 2024–03 requires a public business entity to provide disaggregated disclosures of certain categories of expenses on an annual and interim basis including employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization for each income statement expense line item that contains those expenses. The update will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. KKR is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025–03, “Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity” (“ASU 2025–03”). ASU 2025–03 requires an entity involved in an acquisition transaction effected primarily by exchanging equity interests when the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) that meets the definition of a business to consider certain factors to determine which entity is the accounting acquirer. The update will be effective for annual periods and interim periods in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026. KKR does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or disclosures.  Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025–06, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software” (“ASU 2025–06”). ASU 2025–06 eliminates accounting consideration of software project development stages; requires capitalizing software costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the project and (ii) it is ‘probable’ the project will be completed and the software used to perform its intended function (the ‘probable-to-complete’ threshold). ASU 2025–06 also enhances the guidance around the ‘probable-to-complete’ threshold. The update will be effective for annual periods and interim periods in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. KKR is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-08, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Purchased Loans. ASU 2025-08 expands the population of purchased financial assets subject to the gross-up approach in Topic 326. As a result of this update, loans (excluding credit cards) acquired without credit deterioration and deemed “seasoned” as defined in the ASU will follow the gross-up approach at acquisition and the initial allowance for credit losses is added to the purchase price to determine the amortized cost basis of the loans.

Global Atlantic had 5,386 and 4,294 securities in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, AFS fixed maturity securities in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more consisted of 2,700 fixed maturity securities. AFS fixed maturity securities in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more with an allowance for credit losses had a fair value and gross unrealized losses of $1.3 billion and $123.4 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2026. These fixed maturity securities primarily relate to Corporate, RMBS, and U.S. state, municipal and political subdivisions fixed maturity securities, which have depressed values due primarily to an increase in interest rates since the purchase of these securities. Unrealized losses were not recognized in net income on these fixed maturity securities since Global Atlantic neither intends to sell the securities nor does it believe that it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their cost or amortized cost basis. For securities with significant declines in value, individual security level analysis was performed utilizing underlying collateral default expectations, market data, and industry analyst reports.

expressed as a percentage of the current amount of the loan relative to the value of the underlying collateral. The following table summarizes Global Atlantic's loan-to-value ratios for its commercial mortgage loans as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025: | Loan-to-Value as of March 31, 2026, by Year of Origination / 2026 | Carrying Value Loan-to-Value 70% and Less / $— | Carrying Value Loan-to-Value 71% - 90% / $— | Carrying Value Loan-to-Value Over 90% / $— | Total Carrying Value / $— | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2025 | 3,783,538 | 147,679 | — | 3,931,217 | | 2024 | 4,872,658 | 147,348 | — | 5,020,006 | | 2023 | 2,697,392 | — | — | 2,697,392 | | 2022 | 4,675,434 | 334,457 | — | 5,009,891 | | 2021 | 4,268,944 | 1,348,643 | 112,942 | 5,730,529 | | Prior | 3,292,836 | 67,723 | 392,373 | 3,752,932 | | Total Commercial Mortgage Loans | $23,590,802 | $2,045,850 | $505,315 | $26,141,967 | | Loan-to-Value as of December 31, 2025, by Year of Origination | Carrying Value Loan-to-Value 70% and Less | Carrying Value Loan-to-Value 71% - 90% | Carrying Value Loan-to-Value Over 90% | Total Carrying Value | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2025 | $3,662,392 | $188,543 | $— | $3,850,935 | | 2024 | 4,865,317 | 150,271 | — | 5,015,588 | | 2023 | 3,215,016 | — | — | 3,215,016 | | 2022 | 4,719,340 | 408,918 | 34,948 | 5,163,206 | | 2021 | 4,427,697 | 1,285,014 | 198,240 | 5,910,951 | | 2020 | 376,593 | 89,762 | 34,974 | 501,329 | | Prior | 3,057,650 | 83,147 | 225,760 | 3,366,557 | | Total Commercial Mortgage Loans | $24,324,005 | $2,205,655 | $493,922 | $27,023,582 | Changing economic conditions and updated assumptions affect Global Atlantic's assessment of the collectibility of commercial mortgage loans. Changing vacancies and rents are incorporated into the analysis that Global Atlantic performs to measure the allowance for credit losses. In addition, Global Atlantic continuously monitors its commercial mortgage loan portfolio to identify risk. Areas of emphasis are properties that have exposure to specific geographic events or have deteriorating credit. The weighted average loan-to-value ratio for Global Atlantic's residential mortgage loans was 64% as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Loan Modifications Global Atlantic may modify the terms of a loan when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, as a means to optimize recovery of amounts due on the loan. Modifications may involve temporary relief, such as payment forbearance for a short period of time (where interest continues to accrue) or may involve more substantive changes to a loan. Changes to the terms of a loan, pursuant to a modification agreement, are factored into the analysis of the loan’s expected credit losses, under the allowance model applicable to the loan. For commercial mortgage loans, modifications for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty are tailored for individual loans and may include interest rate relief, maturity extensions or, less frequently, principal forgiveness. For both residential mortgage loans and consumer loans, the most common modifications for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, aside from insignificant delays in payment, typically involve deferral of missed payments to the end of the loan term, interest rate relief, or maturity extensions. The tables below present the carrying value of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, for which modifications have been granted during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025: | Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 by Loan Type | Deferral of Amounts Due | Interest Rate Relief | Maturity Extension | Combination(1) | Total | Percentage of Total Carrying Value Outstanding | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Commercial Mortgage Loans | $— | $— | $— | $79,121 | $79,121 | 0.30% | | Residential Mortgage Loans | 991 | — | — | 555 | 1,546 | 0.01% | | Consumer Loans | 1,547 | 64 | 4,592 | 7,554 | 13,757 | 0.37% | | Total(2) | $2,538 | $64 | $4,592 | $87,230 | $94,424 | | (1) Includes modifications involving a combination of deferral of amounts due, interest rate relief, or maturity extension.

(2) Excludes loans that were modified during the year, but were repaid in full by year end. All of the commercial mortgage loans that had a combination of modifications had both interest rate relief and maturity extensions. For commercial mortgage loans granted interest rate relief, this relief may involve a change from a floating rate to fixed, a decrease in fixed rate, or a decrease in spread. Interest rate relief provided during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, was at a weighted average rate of 7.7% and 3.0%, respectively. The maturity extensions for commercial mortgage loans added a weighted-average of 2.9 years and 2.0 years to the life of the loans, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, Global Atlantic has commitments to lend additional funds of $42.9 million for the modified commercial mortgage loans disclosed above. The table below presents the performance status of the loans modified during the twelve months ended March 31, 2026: | | | | | | | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Performance Status as of March 31, 2026 by Loan Type | Current | 30-59 Days Past Due | 60-89 Days Past Due | 90 Days or More Past Due or in Process of Foreclosure | Total | | Commercial Mortgage Loans | $266,295 | $— | $— | $— | $266,295 | | Residential Mortgage Loans | 3,950 | 73 | 459 | 1,058 | 5,540 | | Consumer Loans | 33,281 | 7,912 | 3,548 | 2,555 | 47,296 | | Total(1) | $303,526 | $7,985 | $4,007 | $3,613 | $319,131 | (1) Loans may have been modified more than once during the twelve months period; in this circumstance, the loan is only included once in this table. Modified loans that were subsequently repaid are excluded.

DERIVATIVES Asset Management and Strategic Holdings KKR and certain of its consolidated funds have entered into derivative transactions as part of the overall risk management for their investment strategies. These derivative contracts are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. Such contracts may include forward, swap, and option contracts related to foreign currencies and interest rates to manage foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk arising from certain assets and liabilities. All derivatives are recognized in Other Assets or Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities and are presented on a gross basis in the consolidated statements of financial condition and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. KKR's derivative financial instruments contain credit risk to the extent that its counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. KKR attempts to reduce this risk by limiting its counterparties to major financial institutions with strong credit ratings. Insurance Global Atlantic holds derivative instruments that are primarily used in its hedge program. Global Atlantic has established a hedge program that seeks to mitigate economic impacts primarily from interest rate and equity price movements, while taking into consideration accounting and capital impacts. Global Atlantic hedges interest rate and equity market risks associated with its insurance liabilities including fixed-indexed annuities, indexed universal life policies, variable annuity policies, and variable universal life policies, among others. For fixed- indexed annuities and indexed universal life policies, Global Atlantic generally seeks to use static hedges to offset the exposure primarily created by changes in its embedded derivative balances. Global Atlantic generally purchases options which replicate the crediting rate strategies, often in the form of call spreads. Call spreads are the purchase of a call option matched by the sale of a different call option. For variable annuities and variable universal life policies, Global Atlantic generally seeks to dynamically hedge its exposure to changes in the value of the guarantee it provides to policyholders. Doing so requires the active trading of several financial instruments to respond to changes in market conditions. In addition, Global Atlantic enters into inflation swaps to manage inflation risk associated with inflation-indexed preneed policies. In the context of specific reinsurance transactions in the institutional channel or acquisitions, Global Atlantic may also enter into hedges which are designed to limit short-term market risks to the economic value of the target assets. From time to time, Global Atlantic also enters into hedges designed to mitigate interest rate and credit risk in investment income, interest expense, and fair value of assets and liabilities. In addition, Global Atlantic enters into currency swaps and forwards to manage any foreign exchange rate risks that may arise from investments and policy liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Global Atlantic attempts to mitigate the risk of loss due to ineffectiveness under these derivative investments through a regular monitoring process which evaluates the program’s effectiveness. Global Atlantic monitors its derivative activities by reviewing portfolio activities and risk levels. Global Atlantic also oversees all derivative transactions to ensure that the types of transactions entered into and the results obtained from those transactions are consistent with both Global Atlantic's risk management strategy and its policies and procedures. The restricted cash which was held in connection with open derivative transactions with exchange brokers was $42.9 million and $49.9 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Global Atlantic also has embedded derivatives related to reinsurance contracts that are accounted for on a modified coinsurance and funds withheld basis. An embedded derivative exists because the arrangement exposes the reinsurer to third-party credit risk. These embedded derivatives are included in funds withheld receivable and payable at interest in the consolidated statements of financial condition. Credit Risk Global Atlantic may be exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by its counterparties to derivatives. Generally, the current credit exposure of Global Atlantic’s derivatives is limited to the positive fair value of derivatives less any collateral received from the counterparty. Global Atlantic manages the credit risk on its derivatives by entering into derivative transactions with highly rated financial institutions and other creditworthy counterparties and, where feasible, by trading through central clearing counterparties. Global Atlantic further manages its credit risk on derivatives via the use of master netting agreements, which require the daily posting of collateral by the party in a liability position. Counterparty credit exposure and collateral values are monitored regularly and measured against counterparty exposure limits. The provisions of derivative transactions may allow for the termination and settlement of a transaction if there is a downgrade to Global Atlantic’s financial strength ratings below a specified level. The fair value and notional value of the derivative assets and liabilities were as follows: | As of March 31, 2026 | Notional Value | Derivative Assets | Derivative Liabilities | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Asset Management and Strategic Holdings | | | | | Foreign Exchange Contracts and Options | $25,096,793 | $331,146 | $713,776 | | Other Derivatives | 7,818,153 | 55,037 | 37,742 | | Total Asset Management and Strategic Holdings | $32,914,946 | $386,183 | $751,518 | | Insurance | | | | | Derivatives Designated as Hedge Accounting Instruments: | | | | | Interest Rate Contracts | $14,240,590 | $93,121 | $335,890 | | Foreign Currency Contracts | 9,010,520 | 94,276 | 130,811 | | Total Derivatives Designated as Hedge Accounting Instruments | $23,251,110 | $187,397 | $466,701 | | Derivatives Not Designated as Hedge Accounting Instruments: | | | | | Equity Market Contracts | $41,905,961 | $2,208,096 | $137,241 | | Interest Rate Contracts | 15,571,219 | 85,881 | 277,369 | | Foreign Currency Contracts | 5,729,924 | 63,386 | 171,557 | | Other Contracts | 2,645 | 2,092 | — | | Total Derivatives Not Designated as Hedge Accounting Instruments | 63,209,749 | 2,359,455 | 586,167 | | Counterparty Netting(2) | — | (595,824) | (595,824) | | Cash Collateral | — | (1,580,339) | (63,414) | | Total Insurance(1) | $86,460,859 | $370,689 | $393,630 | | Fair Value Included Within Total Assets and Liabilities | $119,375,805 | $756,872 | $1,145,148 | (1) Excludes embedded derivatives.

(2) Represents netting of derivative exposures covered by qualifying master netting agreements. Derivatives Designated as Accounting Hedges Where Global Atlantic has derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as accounting hedges, these derivative instruments receive hedge accounting. Fair Value Hedges Global Atlantic has designated foreign exchange derivative contracts, including forwards and swaps, to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with foreign currency-denominated bonds in fair value hedges. These foreign currency-denominated bonds are accounted for as AFS fixed maturity securities. Changes in the fair value of the hedged AFS fixed maturity securities due to changes in spot exchange rates are reclassified from AOCI to earnings, which offsets the earnings impact of the spot changes of the foreign exchange derivative contracts, both of which are recognized within investment-related gains (losses). The effectiveness of these hedges is assessed using the spot method. Changes in the fair value of the foreign exchange derivative contracts related to changes in the spot-forward difference are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and are deferred in AOCI and recognized in earnings using a systematic and rational method over the life of the foreign exchange derivative contracts. The amortized cost of the AFS fixed maturity securities in qualifying foreign exchange fair value hedges was $4.9 billion and $3.7 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Global Atlantic has designated foreign exchange swaps to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with certain policy liabilities in fair value hedges. Changes in the fair value of the hedged policy liabilities due to changes in spot exchange rates are recognized in earnings and are offset by the earnings impact of the spot changes of the foreign exchange swaps, both of which are recognized within net policy benefits and claims. The effectiveness of these hedges is assessed using the spot method. Changes in the fair value of the foreign exchange swaps related to changes in the spot-forward difference are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and are deferred in AOCI and recognized in earnings using a systematic and rational method over the life of the foreign exchange swaps. The carrying value of the policy liabilities in qualifying foreign exchange fair value hedges was $102.4 million and nil as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Global Atlantic has designated interest rate swaps to hedge the interest rate risk associated with certain debt and policy liabilities. These fair value hedges generally qualify for the shortcut method of assessing hedge effectiveness. The following table presents the financial statement classification, carrying amount, and cumulative fair value hedging adjustments for qualifying hedged debt and policy liabilities: | Line item | As of March 31, 2026 / Carrying Amount of Hedged Liabilities | As of March 31, 2026 / Cumulative Amount of Fair Value Hedging Adjustments Included in the Carrying Amount of Hedged Liabilities(1) | As of December 31, 2025 / Carrying Amount of Hedged Liabilities | As of December 31, 2025 / Cumulative Amount of Fair Value Hedging Adjustments Included in the Carrying Amount of Hedged Liabilities(1) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Debt | $3,556,923 | $(139,129) | $3,572,318 | $(123,471) | | Policy Liabilities | 4,568,793 | (102,025) | 3,647,117 | (99,239) | (1) Includes $145.8 million and $154.6 million of hedging adjustments on discontinued hedging relationships as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Cash Flow Hedges Global Atlantic has designated bond forwards to hedge the interest rate risk associated with the planned purchase of AFS fixed maturity securities in cash flow hedges. These arrangements are hedging purchases through January 2036 and are expected to affect earnings until 2057. Regression analysis is used to assess the effectiveness of these hedges. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was a cumulative gain (loss) of $(201.2) million and $(213.9) million, respectively, on the currently designated bond forwards recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Amounts deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are reclassified to net investment income following the qualifying purchases of AFS securities, as an adjustment to the yield earned over the life of the purchased securities, using the effective interest method. Global Atlantic has designated interest rate swaps to hedge the interest rate risk associated with floating rate investments, including AFS fixed maturity securities and commercial mortgage loans. Regression analysis is used to assess the effectiveness of these hedges. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was a cumulative gain (loss) of $(36.9) million and $(22.3) million on the currently designated interest rate swaps recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), respectively. Amounts deferred in accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) are reclassified to net investment income in the same period during which the hedged investments affect earnings. Global Atlantic has designated foreign exchange swaps to hedge the foreign exchange risk associated with certain policy liabilities in cash flow hedges. The critical terms of the swaps match those of the hedged liabilities, such that the respective hedging relationship is expected to be perfectly effective (pursuant to ASC 815-20-25-84). As of March 31, 2026, there was a cumulative gain (loss) of $(32.3) million on the currently designated foreign exchange swaps recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Amounts deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss are reclassified to net policy benefits and claims in the same period during which the hedged policy liabilities affect earnings due to changes in spot foreign exchange rates. The amount reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss for the swap designated in the hedge comprises changes in its fair value due to changes in spot exchange rates and an allocated portion of its initial spot-forward difference. For all cash flow hedges, Global Atlantic estimates that the amount of gains/losses in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months will not be material. Net Investment Hedges Global Atlantic has designated cross currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with certain foreign currency-denominated equity method investments in net investment hedges. The effectiveness of these hedges is assessed based on changes in spot rates. Changes in the fair value of the swaps are recognized in other comprehensive income, consistent with the translation adjustment for the hedged investment. The component comprising the difference between forward rates and spot rates is amortized to net investment income over the life of the swaps. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the cumulative foreign currency translation gain (loss) recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income related to net investment hedges was $(3.8) million and $(14.1) million, respectively. Derivative Results The following table presents the financial statement classification and amount of gains (losses) recognized on derivative instruments and related hedged items, where applicable. None of the Asset Management and Strategic Holdings derivatives are designated as hedge accounting instruments.

KKR has determined that market participants would take these inputs into account when valuing the investments and debt obligations. "LTM" means last twelve months, and "EBITDA" means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. (2) Inputs were weighted based on the fair value of the investments included in the range. (3) Unless otherwise noted, this column represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level III investments that would result from an increase to the corresponding unobservable input. A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect. Significant increases and decreases in these inputs in isolation could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements. (4) The directional change from an increase in the weight ascribed to the market comparables approach would increase the fair value of the Level III investments if the market comparables approach results in a higher valuation than the discounted cash flow approach and transaction price. The opposite would be true if the market comparables approach results in a lower valuation than the discounted cash flow approach and transaction price. (5) The directional change from an increase in the weight ascribed to the discounted cash flow approach would increase the fair value of the Level III investments if the discounted cash flow approach results in a higher valuation than the market comparables approach, transaction price and direct income capitalization approach. The opposite would be true if the discounted cash flow approach results in a lower valuation than the market comparables approach, transaction price and direct income capitalization approach. (6) The directional change from an increase in the weight ascribed to the transaction price or milestones would increase the fair value of the Level III investments if the transaction price or milestones results in a higher valuation than the market comparables and discounted cash flow approach. The opposite would be true if the transaction price or milestones results in a lower valuation than the market comparables approach and discounted cash flow approach. (7) The directional change from an increase in the weight ascribed to the direct income capitalization approach would increase the fair value of the Level III investments if the direct income capitalization approach results in a higher valuation than the discounted cash flow approach. The opposite would be true if the direct income capitalization approach results in a lower valuation than the discounted cash flow approach. (8) Consists primarily of investments in common stock, preferred stock, warrants and options of companies that are not private equity, real assets, credit, equity method - other, or investments of consolidated CFEs. (9) The funds withheld receivable at interest has been excluded from the above table. As discussed in Note 12 – Reinsurance, the funds withheld receivable at interest is created through funds withheld contracts. The assets supporting these receivables were held in trusts for the benefit of Global Atlantic. Accordingly, the unobservable inputs utilized in the valuation of the embedded derivative are a component of the invested assets supporting the funds withheld reinsurance agreements. | Level III Liabilities | Fair Value March 31, 2026 | Valuation Methodologies | Unobservable Input(s) (1) | Weighted Average (2) | Range | Impact To Valuation From An Increase In Input (3) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ASSET MANAGEMENT AND STRATEGIC HOLDINGS | | | | | | | | Unfunded Revolver Commitments | $117,728 | Yield Analysis | Discount Rate | 11.8% | 6.0% - 16.6% | Decrease | | INSURANCE(4) | | | | | | | | Policy Liabilities | $1,657,847 | Policy liabilities under fair value option: | | | | | | | | Present value of best estimate liability cash flows.

(2) Inputs were weighted based on the fair value of the investments included in the range. (3) Unless otherwise noted, this column represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level III investments that would result from an increase to the corresponding unobservable input. A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect. Significant increases and decreases in these inputs in isolation could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements. (4) The fair value of the embedded derivative component of the funds withheld payable at interest has been excluded from the above table. The investments supporting the funds withheld payable at interest balance are held in a trust by Global Atlantic. Accordingly, the unobservable inputs utilized in the valuation of the embedded derivative are a component of the investments supporting the reinsurance cession agreements. In the table above, certain private equity investments may be valued at cost for a period of time after an acquisition as the best indicator of fair value. In addition, certain valuations of private equity investments may be entirely or partially derived by reference to observable valuation measures for a pending or consummated transaction. The various unobservable inputs used to determine the Level III valuations may have similar or diverging impacts on valuation. Significant increases and decreases in these inputs in isolation and interrelationships between those inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements as noted in the table above. Financial Instruments Not Carried At Fair Value Asset Management and Strategic Holdings financial instruments are primarily measured at fair value on a recurring basis, except as disclosed in Note 16 "Debt Obligations."

REINSURANCE Global Atlantic maintains a number of reinsurance treaties with third parties whereby Global Atlantic assumes annuity and life policies on a coinsurance, modified coinsurance or funds withheld basis. Global Atlantic also maintains other reinsurance treaties including the cession of certain annuity, life and health policies. The effects of all reinsurance agreements on the consolidated statements of financial condition were as follows: | Line item | March 31, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | | --- | --- | --- | | Policy Liabilities: | | | | Direct | $97,092,779 | $97,358,820 | | Assumed | 107,634,338 | 108,199,907 | | Total Policy Liabilities | 204,727,117 | 205,558,727 | | Ceded(1) | (50,155,482) | (47,727,495) | | Net Policy Liabilities | $154,571,635 | $157,831,232 | (1) Reported within reinsurance recoverable within the consolidated statements of financial condition. A key credit quality indicator is a counterparty’s A.M. Best financial strength rating. A.M. Best ratings are an independent opinion of a reinsurer’s ability to meet ongoing obligations to policyholders. Global Atlantic mitigates counterparty credit risk by requiring collateral and credit enhancements in various forms including engaging in funds withheld at interest and modified coinsurance transactions. The following shows the amortized cost basis of Global Atlantic’s reinsurance recoverable and funds withheld receivable at interest by credit quality indicator and any associated credit enhancements Global Atlantic has obtained to mitigate counterparty credit risk: | A.M.

Common Stockholders - Basic reflects the accumulated undeclared dividends on Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock of $13.5 million. (2) For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the impact of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock calculated under the if-converted method was not dilutive. (3) For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Weighted Average Shares of Common Stock Outstanding – Diluted includes unvested equity awards, including certain equity awards that have met their market price-based vesting condition but have not satisfied their service-based vesting condition. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, all unvested equity awards are excluded from the calculation of Diluted Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. Per Share of Common Stock because including these unvested equity awards as incremental shares would decrease the loss per share of common stock as a result of the inclusion of such awards being anti-dilutive. Upon vesting, these awards dilute the ownership interests of KKR Group Partnership equity holders, including KKR & Co. Inc. and holders of exchangeable securities, in accordance with their respective ownership percentages. Exchangeable Securities For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, vested restricted holdings units (as defined in Note 19 "Equity- based Compensation") have been excluded from the calculation of Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. Per Share of Common Stock - Diluted since the exchange of these units would not dilute KKR & Co. Inc.’s ownership interests in KKR Group Partnership.

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES Consolidated VIEs KKR consolidates certain VIEs in which it is determined that KKR is the primary beneficiary. The consolidated VIEs are predominately CLOs and certain investment funds sponsored by KKR. The primary purpose of these VIEs is to provide strategy specific investment opportunities to earn investment gains, current income or both in exchange for management fees and performance income. KKR's investment strategies differ for these VIEs; however, the fundamental risks have similar characteristics, including loss of invested capital and loss of management fees and performance income. KKR does not provide performance guarantees and has no other financial obligation to provide funding to these consolidated VIEs, beyond amounts previously committed, if any. Furthermore, KKR consolidates certain VIEs that are formed by Global Atlantic to either (i) hold investments, including fixed maturity securities, consumer and other loans, renewable energy, transportation and real estate, or (ii) to conduct certain reinsurance activities with third party commitments. Unconsolidated VIEs KKR holds variable interests in certain VIEs which are not consolidated as it has been determined that KKR is not the primary beneficiary. VIEs that are not consolidated predominantly include certain investment funds sponsored by KKR as well as certain investment partnerships where Global Atlantic retains an economic interest. KKR's investment strategies differ by investment fund; however, the fundamental risks have similar characteristics, including loss of invested capital and loss of management fees and performance income. KKR's maximum exposure to loss as a result of its investments in the unconsolidated investment funds is the carrying value of such investments, including KKR's capital interest and any unrealized carried interest. Accordingly, disaggregation of KKR's involvement by type of unconsolidated investment fund would not provide more useful information. For these unconsolidated investment funds in which KKR is the sponsor, KKR may have an obligation as general partner to provide commitments to such investment funds. As of March 31, 2026, KKR's commitments to these unconsolidated investment funds were $1.7 billion. KKR generally has not provided any financial support other than its obligated amount as of March 31, 2026. Additionally, Global Atlantic has unfunded commitments of $401.9 million as of March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the maximum exposure to loss, before allocations to the carry pool and noncontrolling interests, if any, for those VIEs in which KKR is determined not to be the primary beneficiary but in which it has a variable interest is as follows: | Line item | March 31, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | | --- | --- | --- | | Investments | $11,908,810 | $11,842,627 | | Due from (to) Affiliates, net | 2,223,279 | 1,871,408 | | Maximum Exposure to Loss | $14,132,089 | $13,714,035 | | Insurance | | | | Real Assets | $75,762 | $79,367 | | Other Investments | 678,492 | 720,933 | | Maximum Exposure to Loss | $754,254 | $800,300 | | Total Maximum Exposure to Loss | $14,886,343 | $14,514,335 | 16.

Financing costs related to the issuance of the notes have been deducted from the note liability and are being amortized over the life of the notes. (3) Interest rates of the notes are fixed and the weighted average interest rates are the following: | Line item | March 31, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | | --- | --- | --- | | KKR USD Senior Notes | 4.37% | 4.37% | | KKR Yen Senior Notes | 1.69% | 1.69% | | KKR Euro Senior Notes | 1.63% | 1.63% | | KKR Subordinated Notes | 5.84% | 5.84% | | KFN USD Senior Notes | 5.27% | 5.27% | (4) These debt obligations are classified as Level III within the fair value hierarchy and valued using the same valuation methodologies as KKR's Level III credit investments. (5) The notes are classified as Level II within the fair value hierarchy and fair value is determined by third party broker quotes. (6) The notes are classified as Level I within the fair value hierarchy and fair value is determined by quoted prices in active markets since the debt is publicly listed. (7) As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the principal value, carrying value and fair value reflects the elimination for the portion of applicable debt obligations that are held by Global Atlantic. KCM 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility On March 27, 2026, KKR Capital Markets Holdings L.P. and certain other capital markets subsidiaries (the "KCM Borrowers") replaced their existing 364-day revolving credit agreement with a new 364-day revolving credit agreement (the "KCM 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility”) with Mizuho Bank, Ltd., as administrative agent, and one or more lenders party thereto. The KCM 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility replaced the prior 364-day revolving credit facility, dated as of April 2, 2025, between the KCM Borrowers and the administrative agent, and one or more lenders party to the prior facility, which was terminated according to its terms on March 27, 2026. The KCM 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility provides for revolving borrowings up to $750 million, expires on March 26, 2027, and ranks pari passu with the existing $750 million 5-year revolving credit facility provided by them for KKR's capital markets business (the "KCM Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility"). If a borrowing is made under the KCM 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement, the interest rate will vary depending on the type of drawdown requested. As with the KCM Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility, borrowings under the KCM 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility may only be used for KKR’s capital markets business. This facility’s only obligors are entities involved in KKR’s capital markets business, and its liabilities are non-recourse to other parts of KKR’s business. The KCM 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, and affirmative and negative covenants, including a financial covenant providing for a maximum debt to equity ratio for the KCM Borrowers, which are substantially similar to those found in the KCM Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility. The KCM Borrowers' obligations under the KCM 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility are secured by certain assets of the KCM Borrowers, including a pledge of equity interests of certain subsidiaries of the KCM Borrowers. Other Asset Management and Strategic Holdings Debt Obligations Certain of KKR's consolidated investment funds have entered into financing arrangements with financial institutions, generally to provide liquidity to such investment funds. These financing arrangements are generally not direct obligations of the general partners of KKR's investment funds (beyond KKR's capital interest) or its management companies. Such borrowings have varying maturities and bear interest at floating rates. Borrowings are generally secured by the investment purchased with the proceeds of the borrowing and/or the uncalled capital commitment of each respective fund. When an investment vehicle borrows, the proceeds are available only for use by that investment vehicle and are not available for the benefit of other investment vehicles or KKR. Collateral within each investment vehicle is also available only against borrowings by that investment vehicle and not against the borrowings of other investment vehicles or KKR. In certain other cases, investments and other assets held directly by majority-owned consolidated levered investment vehicles and other entities have been funded with borrowings that are collateralized by the investments and assets they own. These borrowings are non-recourse to KKR beyond the investments or assets serving as collateral or the capital that KKR has committed to fund such investment vehicles. Such borrowings have varying maturities and generally bear interest at fixed rates. In addition, consolidated CFEs issue debt securities to third-party investors which are collateralized by assets held by the CFE. Debt securities issued by CFEs are supported solely by the assets held at the CFEs and are not collateralized by assets of any other KKR entity. CFEs also may have warehouse facilities with banks to provide liquidity to the CFE. The CFE's debt obligations are non-recourse to KKR beyond the assets of the CFE. As of March 31, 2026, other debt obligations consisted of the following: | Line item | Financing Available | Principal | Carrying Value(1) | Fair Value | Weighted Average Interest Rate | Weighted Average Remaining Maturity in Years | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Financing Facilities of Consolidated Funds and Other | $6,205,167 | $9,978,726 | $9,954,423 | $9,926,657 | 5.2% | 4.8 | | Debt Obligations of Consolidated CFEs | — | 31,021,562 | 30,012,515 | 30,012,515 | (2) | 10.6 | | | $6,205,167 | $41,000,288 | $39,966,938 | $39,939,172 | | | (1) Includes borrowings collateralized by fund investments, fund co-investments, and other assets held by levered investment vehicles of $3.4 billion. (2) The senior notes of the consolidated CFEs had a weighted average interest rate of 4.9%. The subordinated notes of the consolidated CLOs do not have contractual interest rates but instead receive a pro rata amount of the net distributions from the excess cash flows of the respective CLO vehicle. Accordingly, weighted average borrowing rates for the subordinated notes are based on cash distributions during the period, if any.

(3) These debt obligations primarily include debt obligations of consolidated co-investment vehicles that are not guaranteed by KKR or Global Atlantic. (4) Interest rates of the notes are fixed and the weighted average interest rates are the following: | Line item | March 31, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | | --- | --- | --- | | Senior Notes | 5.67% | 5.67% | | Subordinated Notes | 7.54% | 7.54% | Global Atlantic Insurance Operating Company Revolving Credit Facility On January 16, 2026, Global Atlantic Limited (Delaware) and GA FinCo (together, the “GA Guarantors”) and certain direct and indirect insurance company subsidiaries of the Guarantors (such insurance company subsidiaries, the “GA OpCo Borrowers”, and together with the Guarantors, the “GA OpCo Credit Parties”) entered into a credit agreement (the “GA OpCo Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “GA Administrative Agent”) and other lenders from time to time party thereto. The GA OpCo Credit Agreement provides the GA OpCo Borrowers with an unsecured revolving credit facility (the “GA OpCo Credit Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $3.0 billion as of January 16, 2026, with the option to request an increase in the facility amount of up to an additional $500 million, for an aggregate principal amount of $3.5 billion, subject to certain conditions, including obtaining new or increased commitments from new or existing lenders. The GA OpCo Credit Facility is a 364-day facility, scheduled to mature on January 15, 2027, which may from time to time be extended for additional 364-day periods at the GA OpCo Borrowers’ option, subject to the consent of the applicable lenders, and the GA OpCo Borrowers may prepay, terminate or reduce the commitments under the GA OpCo Credit Facility at any time without penalty. Borrowings under the GA OpCo Credit Facility are available for general corporate purposes including working capital. Interest on borrowings under the GA OpCo Credit Facility will be based on either (i) the term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), plus a margin based on a corporate ratings-based grid ranging from 1.10% to 1.375%, or (ii) an alternate base rate, plus a margin based on a corporate ratings-based grid ranging from 0.10% to 0.375%. Certain other terms of the GA OpCo Credit Agreement include: (i) financial covenants that require GALD and certain of its consolidated subsidiaries not to exceed a specified debt-to-total-capitalization ratio and to satisfy a net worth threshold; (ii) customary representations, affirmative covenants and certain negative covenants; and (iii) customary events of default, upon the occurrence of which the lenders will have the ability to accelerate all outstanding loans under the GA OpCo Credit Facility and terminate the commitments. Debt Covenants Borrowings of KKR (including Global Atlantic) contain various debt covenants. These covenants do not, in management's opinion, materially restrict KKR's operating business or investment strategies as of March 31, 2026. KKR (including Global Atlantic) was in compliance with such debt covenants in all material respects as of March 31, 2026. 17.

The following table summarizes the amount of gross premiums related to traditional and limited-payment contracts recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025: | Line item | Gross Premiums / Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 | Gross Premiums / Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 | | --- | --- | --- | | Payout Annuities | $613,091 | $395,010 | | Other | 237,073 | 191,588 | | Total Products | $850,164 | $586,598 | The following table reflects the weighted-average duration and weighted-average interest rates of the future policy benefit liability as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025: _As of March 31, 2026_ | Line item | Payout Annuities | Other | | --- | --- | --- | | Weighted-Average Interest Rates, Original Discount Rate | 4.27% | 5.25% | | Weighted-Average Interest Rates, Current Discount Rate | 5.40% | 5.33% | | Weighted-Average Liability Duration (Years, Current Rates) | 8.30 | 8.90 | _As of December 31, 2025_ | Line item | Payout Annuities | Other | | --- | --- | --- | | Weighted-Average Interest Rates, Original Discount Rate | 4.22% | 5.25% | | Weighted-Average Interest Rates, Current Discount Rate | 5.19% | 5.11% | | Weighted-Average Liability Duration (Years, Current Rates) | 8.30 | 9.10 | The following reflects the undiscounted ending balance of expected future gross premiums and expected future benefits and payments for traditional and limited-payment contracts, as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025: _As of March 31, 2026_ | Line item | Payout Annuities | Other | | --- | --- | --- | | Expected Future Benefit Payments, Undiscounted | $39,535,575 | $16,271,108 | | Expected Future Benefit Payments, Discounted (Original Discount Rate) | 25,384,208 | 9,454,196 | | Expected Future Benefit Payments, Discounted (Current Discount Rate) | 22,689,415 | 9,314,354 | | Expected Future Gross Premiums, Undiscounted | — | 2,240,768 | | Expected Future Gross Premiums, Discounted (Original Discount Rate) | — | 1,770,677 | | Expected Future Gross Premiums, Discounted (Current Discount Rate) | — | 1,759,638 | _As of December 31, 2025_ | Line item | Payout Annuities | Other | | --- | --- | --- | | Expected Future Benefit Payments, Undiscounted | $38,989,687 | $16,462,284 | | Expected Future Benefit Payments, Discounted (Original Discount Rate) | 25,126,080 | 9,466,765 | | Expected Future Benefit Payments, Discounted (Current Discount Rate) | 22,763,350 | 9,461,444 | | Expected Future Gross Premiums, Undiscounted | — | 2,387,698 | | Expected Future Gross Premiums, Discounted (Original Discount Rate) | — | 1,891,414 | | Expected Future Gross Premiums, Discounted (Current Discount Rate) | — | 1,880,446 | For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, Global Atlantic recognized $259.2 million and $(184.1) million in other comprehensive income (loss) (gross of the impact of reinsurance), respectively, due to changes in the future policy benefits estimate from updating discount rates. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were no changes to the methods used to determine the discount rates.

Global Atlantic reviews its assumptions at least annually, and more frequently if necessary. Accordingly, as part of the review conducted during the three months ended March 31, 2025, assumptions for fixed-indexed annuities activations were updated, which resulted in a $43.9 million increase to net income before taxes. Separate Account Liabilities Separate account assets and liabilities consist of investment accounts established and maintained by Global Atlantic for certain variable annuity and interest-sensitive life insurance contracts. Some of these contracts include minimum guarantees such as GMDBs and GMWBs that guarantee a minimum payment to the policyholder. The assets that support these variable annuity and interest-sensitive life insurance contracts are measured at fair value and are reported as separate account assets on the consolidated statements of financial condition. An equivalent amount is reported as separate account liabilities. Market risk benefit assets and liabilities for minimum guarantees are valued and presented separately from separate account assets and separate account liabilities. For more information on market risk benefits see “—Market risk benefits” in this footnote. Policy charges assessed against the policyholders for mortality, administration and other services are included in “Policy fees” in the consolidated statements of operations. The following table presents the balances of and changes in separate account liabilities: | Line item | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 / Variable Annuities | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 / Interest-Sensitive Life | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 / Total | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 / Variable Annuities | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 / Interest-Sensitive Life | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 / Total | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Balance as of Beginning of Period | $3,214,498 | $626,905 | $3,841,403 | $3,400,617 | $580,443 | $3,981,060 | | Premiums and Deposits | 5,553 | 2,884 | 8,437 | 7,286 | 2,940 | 10,226 | | Surrenders, Withdrawals and Benefit Payments | (125,460) | (16,165) | (141,625) | (135,422) | (4,292) | (139,714) | | Investment Performance | (72,180) | (14,985) | (87,165) | (62,381) | (14,019) | (76,400) | | Other | (23,059) | (12,719) | (35,778) | (26,218) | (10,290) | (36,508) | | Balance as of End of Period | $2,999,352 | $585,920 | $3,585,272 | $3,183,882 | $554,782 | $3,738,664 | | Cash Surrender Value as of End of Period(1) | $2,999,352 | $585,920 | $3,585,272 | $3,183,882 | $554,782 | $3,738,664 | (1) Cash surrender value attributed to the separate accounts does not reflect the impact of surrender charges; surrender charges are attributed to policyholder account balances recorded in the general account.

INCOME TAXES KKR & Co. Inc. is a domestic corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes at the corporate level on its share of taxable income. In addition, KKR Group Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries operate as partnerships for U.S. federal tax purposes but as taxable entities for certain state, local or non-U.S. tax purposes. Moreover, certain corporate subsidiaries of KKR, including certain subsidiaries of Global Atlantic, are domestic corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes and are subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the effective tax rates for KKR & Co. Inc. were 40.0% and 11.2%, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the 21% U.S. federal income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 primarily due to the portion of the reported net income (loss) before taxes not being attributable to KKR but rather being attributable to (i) third-party limited partner interests in consolidated investment funds which are not subject to taxes that are payable by KKR & Co. Inc. and its subsidiaries and (ii) exchangeable securities representing ownership interests in KKR Group Partnership until they are exchanged for common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. Each reporting period, KKR assesses available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to realize existing deferred tax assets. Global Atlantic’s deferred tax assets are believed to be more likely than not to be realized and therefore, no valuation allowance is needed. It is reasonably possible that prolonged market volatility may negatively affect Global Atlantic's operating results and its ability to realize its tax planning strategies and may warrant the establishment of a valuation allowance on a portion of its deferred tax assets within the next 12 months. 19. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION The following table summarizes the expense associated with equity-based compensation in connection with KKR equity incentive awards for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. | Line item | Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 | | --- | --- | --- | | Asset Management(1) | $153,753 | $162,876 | | Insurance | 26,360 | 20,692 | | Total | $180,113 | $183,568 | (1) For the three months ended March 31, 2026, KKR recorded acquisition-related stock consideration of $3.0 million. KKR Equity Incentive Awards Under KKR's equity incentive plan, KKR is permitted to grant equity awards representing ownership interests in KKR & Co. Inc. common stock. On March 29, 2019, the Amended and Restated KKR & Co. Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2019 Equity Incentive Plan") became effective. Following the effectiveness of the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, KKR no longer makes further grants under the Amended and Restated KKR & Co. Inc. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, and the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan became KKR's only plan for providing new equity awards by KKR & Co. Inc. The total number of equity awards representing shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan is equivalent to 15% of the aggregate number of the shares of common stock and KKR Group Partnership Units (excluding KKR Group Partnership Units held by KKR & Co. Inc. or its wholly-owned subsidiaries), subject to annual adjustment. As of March 31, 2026, 57,196,800 shares may be issued under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. KKR has also issued equity grants in the form of restricted holdings units through KKR Holdings III L.P. ("KKR Holdings III"), which are not issued under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan and are currently held by certain current and former KKR employees. Equity awards granted generally consist of (i) restricted stock units that convert into shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. (or cash equivalent) upon vesting and (ii) restricted holdings units that are exchangeable into shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. upon vesting and certain other conditions, including those described below. In April 2026, the Company granted equity incentive awards under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan representing approximately 29 million shares of common stock, which awards are subject to market price and cliff service vesting conditions based on average prices of common stock ranging from $150 to $250 and the recipient’s continued service through May 1, 2031, subject to certain exceptions (including if the market price conditions are satisfied between May 1, 2031 and May 1, 2033 with continued service through such date). In April 2026, the Company also granted equity incentive awards under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan representing approximately 2 million shares of common stock, which are subject to time-based vesting conditions based on the recipient’s continued service for five years, subject to certain exceptions. Both sets of equity awards have transfer restrictions ranging from 1 to 5 years following vesting. Service-Vesting Awards KKR grants restricted stock units and restricted holdings units that are subject to service-based vesting, typically over a three to five-year period from the date of grant (referred to hereafter as "Service-Vesting Awards"). In certain cases, these Service-Vesting Awards may have a percentage of the award that vests immediately upon grant, and certain Service-Vesting Awards may have vesting periods longer than five years. Additionally, some but not all Service-Vesting Awards are subject to transfer restrictions and/or minimum retained ownership requirements. Generally, the transfer restriction period, if applicable, lasts for (i) one year with respect to one-half of the awards vesting on any vesting date and (ii) two years with respect to the other one-half of the awards vesting on such vesting date. While providing services to KKR, some but not all of these awards are also subject to minimum retained ownership rules requiring the award recipient to continuously hold shares of common stock equivalents equal to at least 15% of their cumulatively vested awards that have or had the minimum retained ownership requirement. Holders of the Service-Vesting Awards do not participate in dividends until such awards have met their vesting requirements. Expense associated with the vesting of these Service-Vesting Awards is based on the closing price of KKR & Co. Inc. common stock on the date of grant, discounted for the lack of participation rights in the expected dividends on unvested equity awards. Expense is recognized on a straight line basis over the life of the award and assumes a forfeiture rate of up to 7% annually based upon expected turnover by class of recipient. As of March 31, 2026, there was approximately $697 million of total estimated unrecognized expense related to unvested Service-Vesting Awards, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average remaining requisite service period of 2.2 years. A summary of the status of unvested Service-Vesting Awards from January 1, 2026, through March 31, 2026, is presented below: | Line item | Shares | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value | | --- | --- | --- | | Balance, January 1, 2026 | 16,143,785 | $73.25 | | Granted | 83,103 | 123.65 | | Vested | (508,015) | 60.05 | | Forfeitures | (176,560) | 81.11 | | Balance, March 31, 2026 | 15,542,313 | $73.86 | Market Condition Awards KKR also grants restricted stock units and restricted holdings units that are subject to both a service-based vesting condition and a market price based vesting condition. The following is a discussion of the Market Condition Awards, excluding the Co-CEO Awards (as defined and discussed below). The number of Market Condition Awards (other than the Co-CEO awards) that will vest depend upon (i) the market price of KKR common stock reaching certain price targets that range from $45.00 to $140.00 and (ii) the employee being employed by KKR on a certain date, which typically ranges from five to six years from the date of grant (with exceptions for involuntary termination without cause, death and permanent disability). The market price vesting condition is met when the average closing price of KKR common stock during 20 consecutive trading days meets or exceeds the stock price targets. Holders of the Market Condition Awards do not participate in dividends until such awards have met both their service-based and market price based vesting requirements. Additionally, these awards are subject to additional transfer restrictions and minimum retained ownership requirements after vesting. Due to the existence of the service requirement, the vesting period for these Market Condition Awards (other than the Co-CEO awards) is explicit, and as such, compensation expense will be recognized on (i) a straight-line basis over the period from the date of grant through the date the award recipient is required to be employed by KKR and (ii) assumes a forfeiture rate of up to 7% annually based upon expected turnover. The fair value of the awards granted are based on a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. In addition, the grant date fair value assumes that holders of the Market Condition Awards will not participate in dividends until such awards have met all of their vesting requirements. Below is a summary of the grant date fair value based on the Monte Carlo simulation valuation model and the significant assumptions used to estimate the grant date fair value of these Market Condition Awards: | Line item | Weighted Average | Range | | --- | --- | --- | | Grant Date Fair Value | $30.62 | $19.87 - $79.94 | | Closing KKR share price as of valuation date | $51.74 | $37.93 - $98.62 | | Risk Free Rate | 2.21% | 0.41% - 4.41% | | Volatility | 30.04% | 28.00% - 38.00% | | Dividend Yield | 1.27% | 0.71% - 1.53% | | Expected Cost of Equity | 10.74% | 9.13% - 11.80% | As of March 31, 2026, there was approximately $307 million of total estimated unrecognized expense related to these unvested Market Condition Awards, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average remaining requisite service period of 1.4 years. A summary of the status of unvested Market Condition Awards from January 1, 2026, through March 31, 2026, is presented below: | Line item | Shares | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value | | --- | --- | --- | | Balance, January 1, 2026 | 37,325,261 | $31.05 | | Granted | — | — | | Vested | (945,793) | 58.64 | | Forfeitures | (228,373) | 58.07 | | Balance, March 31, 2026 | 36,151,095 | $30.16 | As of March 31, 2026, all of the Market Condition awards have met their market price based vesting condition. These Market Condition awards remain unvested until their service conditions (as described above) are satisfied. Co-CEO Awards On December 9, 2021, the Board of Directors approved grants of 7.5 million restricted holdings units to each of KKR’s Co- Chief Executive Officers that are subject to both a service-based vesting condition and a market price based vesting condition (referred to hereafter as "Co-CEOs Awards"). For both Co-Chief Executive Officers, 20% of the Co-CEOs Awards are eligible to vest at each of the following KKR common stock prices targets: $95.80, $105.80, $115.80, $125.80 and $135.80. The market price based vesting condition is met when the average closing price of KKR common stock during 20 consecutive trading days meets or exceeds the stock price targets. In addition to the market price based vesting conditions, in order for the award to vest, the Co-Chief Executive Officer is required to be employed by KKR on December 31, 2026 (with exceptions for involuntary termination without cause, death and permanent disability). These awards will be automatically canceled and forfeited upon the earlier of a Co-Chief Executive Officer’s termination of service (except for involuntary termination without cause, death or permanent disability) or the failure to meet the market price based vesting condition by December 31, 2028 (for which continued service is required if the market price vesting condition is met after December 31, 2026). Co-CEO Awards do not participate in dividends until such awards have met both their service-based and market price based vesting requirements. Additionally, these awards are subject to additional transfer restrictions and minimum retained ownership requirements after vesting. Due to the existence of the service requirement, the vesting period for these Co-CEO Awards is explicit, and as such, compensation expense will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the period from the date of grant through December 31, 2026 given the derived service period is less than the explicit service period. The fair value of the awards granted are based on a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. In addition, the grant date fair value assumes that these Co-CEO Awards will not participate in dividends until such awards have met all of their vesting requirements.

SEGMENT REPORTING KKR operates through three reportable segments which are presented below and reflect how its chief operating decision- makers, who are the Co-Chief Executive Officers, allocate resources and assess performance: - Asset Management – The asset management business offers a broad range of investment management services to investment funds, vehicles and accounts (including the Insurance and Strategic Holdings segments) and provides capital markets services to portfolio companies and third parties. This reportable segment also reflects how its business lines operate collaboratively with predominantly a single expense pool. - Insurance – The insurance business is operated by Global Atlantic, which is a leading U.S. retirement and life insurance company that provides a broad suite of protection, legacy and savings products and reinsurance solutions to clients across individual and institutional markets. Global Atlantic primarily generates income by earning a spread between its investment income and the cost of policyholder benefits. - Strategic Holdings – The strategic holdings business acquires and manages interests in operating companies that are owned by KKR. This segment primarily generates income from dividends from these businesses. Dividends are presented net of management fees paid to the Asset Management segment. If KKR were to sell a portion or all of a business reported in Strategic Holdings, the realized gain or loss would be presented as realized investment income, net of a performance fee paid to the Asset Management segment. KKR’s segment profitability measures used to make operating decisions and assess performance across KKR’s reportable segments is presented prior to giving effect to the allocation of income (loss) among KKR & Co. Inc. and holders of any exchangeable securities, and the consolidation of the investment funds, vehicles and accounts that KKR advises, manages or sponsors (including CFEs). For each segment, the chief operating decision makers use the key measure of segment earnings to allocate resources to that segment in the annual budget and forecasting process. KKR's segment profitability measures excludes: (i) equity-based compensation charges, (ii) amortization of acquired intangibles, and (iii) transaction-related and non-operating items, if any. Transaction-related and non-operating items arise from corporate actions, which consist of: (i) impairments, (ii) transaction costs from acquisitions, including any acquisition-related stock consideration, (iii) depreciation on real estate that KKR owns and occupies, (iv) contingent liabilities, net of any recoveries, (v) certain integration, restructuring, and other non-operating expenses, and (vi) other gains or charges that affect period-to-period comparability and are not reflective of KKR's ongoing operational performance. Inter-segment transactions are not eliminated from segment results when management considers those transactions in assessing the results of the respective segments. These transactions include (i) management fees earned by the Asset Management segment as the investment adviser for Global Atlantic’s insurance companies, (ii) management and performance fees earned by the Asset Management segment from the Strategic Holdings segment, and (iii) interest income and expense based on lending arrangements where the Asset Management segment borrows from the Insurance segment. All these inter- segment transactions are recorded by each segment based on the applicable governing agreements. Additionally, due to the integrated nature of our segment operations and as part of our strategic capital allocation decisions, inter-segment asset transfers have and may continue to occur. In these cases in segment reporting, the assets are transferred at their fair value, and no gain or loss is recognized at the time of transfer. Earnings are recognized upon realization events and transactions with third parties. Total Segment Earnings represents the total segment earnings of KKR’s Asset Management, Insurance, and Strategic Holdings segments: - Asset Management Segment Earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Asset Management segment. This measure is presented before income taxes and is comprised of: (i) Fee Related Earnings, (ii) Realized Performance Income, (iii) Realized Performance Income Compensation, (iv) Realized Investment Income, and (v) Realized Investment Income Compensation. Asset Management Segment Earnings excludes the impact of: (i) unrealized gains (losses) on investments, (ii) unrealized carried interest, and (iii) unrealized carried interest compensation. Management fees earned by KKR as the adviser, manager or sponsor for its investment funds, vehicles and accounts, including its Global Atlantic insurance companies and Strategic Holdings segment, are included in Asset Management Segment Earnings. - Insurance Operating Earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Insurance segment. This measure is presented before income taxes and is comprised of: (i) Net Investment Income, (ii) Net Cost of Insurance, and (iii) General, Administrative, and Other Expenses. Insurance Operating Earnings excludes the impact of: (i) investment gains (losses) which include realized gains (losses) related to asset/liability matching investment strategies and unrealized investment gains (losses) and (ii) non-operating changes in policy liabilities and derivatives which includes (a) changes in the fair value of market risk benefits and other policy liabilities measured at fair value and related benefit payments, (b) fees attributed to guaranteed benefits, (c) derivatives used to manage the risks associated with policy liabilities, and (d) losses at contract issuance on payout annuities. Insurance Operating Earnings includes (i) realized gains and losses not related to asset/liability matching investment strategies and (ii) the investment management costs that are earned by our Asset Management segment as the investment adviser of the Global Atlantic insurance companies. - Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Strategic Holdings segment. This measure is presented before income taxes and is comprised of: Dividends, Net and Net Realized Investment Income. Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings excludes the impact of unrealized gains (losses) on investments. Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings includes management fees and performance fee expenses that are earned by the Asset Management segment. KKR disclosed all the segment expenses under the significant expense principle for each reportable segment. There are no expenses to be disclosed in the other segment category, because segment revenues minus segment expenses equals the segment measure of profit of each reportable segment. Effective beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the information regularly provided to KKR’s chief operating decision makers for the Insurance Segment was changed to reclassify certain operating expenses from “General, Administrative and Other” to “Net Cost of Insurance.” Prior period segment information has been recast to conform to the current period presentation. This reclassification had no impact on Insurance Operating Earnings.

Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock On March 7, 2025, KKR & Co. Inc. issued 51,750,000 shares, or $2.59 billion aggregate liquidation preference, of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock. Subject to certain exceptions, so long as any share of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock remains outstanding, no dividend or distributions will be declared or paid on shares of KKR & Co. Inc.’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, or any other class or series of stock ranking junior to the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, and no common stock or any other class or series of stock ranking junior to the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will be purchased, redeemed, or otherwise acquired for consideration by KKR & Co.

In addition, when dividends on shares of the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (i) have not been declared and paid in full on any dividend payment date (or, in the case of any parity stock having dividend payment dates different from such dividend payment dates on a dividend payment date falling within a regular dividend period related to such dividend payment date), or (ii) have been declared but a sum of cash or number of shares of Common Stock sufficient for payment thereof has not been set aside for the benefit of the holders thereof on the applicable regular record date, no dividends may be declared or paid on any parity stock unless dividends are declared on the shares of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock such that the respective amounts of such dividends declared on the shares of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and such shares of parity stock shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the shares of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and the holders of any shares of parity stock then outstanding. Unless converted earlier, each share of the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically convert on the mandatory conversion date, which is expected to be March 1, 2028, into between 0.3312 shares and 0.4140 shares of common stock, in each case, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments described in the certificate of designations setting forth the terms of the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion will be determined based on the average volume weighted average price per share of common stock over the 20 consecutive trading day period beginning on, and including, the 21st scheduled trading day immediately prior to March 1, 2028. Dividends on the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will be payable on a cumulative basis when, as and if declared by KKR & Co.

If declared, dividends on the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will be payable quarterly on March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 of each year to, and including, March 1, 2028, commencing on June 1, 2025. Upon KKR & Co. Inc.’s voluntary or involuntary liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, each holder of the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive a liquidation preference in the amount of $50.00 per share of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, plus an amount equal to accumulated and unpaid dividends on such shares, whether or not declared, to, but excluding, the date fixed for liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, such amount to be paid out of KKR & Co. Inc.’s assets legally available for distribution to its stockholders after satisfaction of debt and other liabilities owed to KKR & Co. Inc.’s creditors and holders of shares of its stock ranking senior to the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and before any payment or distribution is made to holders of any stock ranking junior to the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, including, without limitation, Common Stock. Share Repurchase Program Under KKR's repurchase program, shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by KKR in its discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. In addition to the repurchases of common stock, the repurchase program will be used for the retirement (by cash settlement or the payment of tax withholding amounts upon net settlement) of equity awards granted pursuant to our 2019 Equity Incentive Plan representing the right to receive common stock. KKR expects that the program will be in effect until the maximum approved dollar amount has been used. The program does not require KKR to repurchase or retire any specific number of shares of common stock or equity awards, respectively, and the program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time. In March 2026, the share repurchase program was amended such that when the remaining available amount under the share repurchase program becomes $50 million or less, the total available amount under the share repurchase program will automatically increase by an additional $500 million to the then remaining available amount (the “Share Repurchase Program Increase Threshold”). As of May 1, 2026, there was approximately $122 million remaining under the program. Any additional increases to the total available amount after the Share Repurchase Program Increase Threshold is reached would require a separate approval by the Board of Directors of KKR & Co. Inc. The repurchase program does not have an expiration date. The following table presents the shares of KKR & Co. Inc. common stock that have been repurchased or equity awards retired under the repurchase program: | Line item | Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 | | --- | --- | --- | | Shares of common stock repurchased | 2,173,970 | — | | Equity awards for common stock retired | 578 | 4,232 | Change in KKR & Co. Inc.'s Ownership Interest Vesting of restricted holdings units results in a change in ownership in KKR Group Partnership, while KKR retains a controlling interest, and is accounted for as an equity transaction between the controlling and noncontrolling interests. Noncontrolling Interests Noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities represent the non-redeemable ownership interests in KKR that are held primarily by: (i)third party fund investors in KKR's consolidated funds and certain other entities; (ii)third parties in KKR's Capital Markets business line; (iii)certain current and former employees who hold exchangeable securities; and (iv)third-party investors in certain of Global Atlantic's consolidated entities.

REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS Redeemable noncontrolling interests primarily represents noncontrolling interests of certain KKR investment funds and vehicles that are subject to periodic redemption by fund investors following the expiration of a specified period of time, or may be withdrawn subject to a redemption fee during the period when capital may not be otherwise withdrawn. Consolidated fund investor's interests subject to redemption as described above are presented as Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition and presented as Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. When redeemable amounts become legally payable to fund investors, they are classified as a liability and included in Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses, and Other Liabilities in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Funding Commitments and Others As of March 31, 2026, KKR had unfunded commitments consisting of $9.1 billion to its investment funds and vehicles. These unfunded commitments also include funding requirements to levered investment vehicles and structured transactions to fund or otherwise be liable for a portion of the vehicle's investment losses and/or to provide the vehicle with liquidity upon certain termination events. In addition to these uncalled commitments and funding obligations to KKR's investment funds and vehicles, KKR has entered into contractual commitments primarily with respect to underwriting transactions, debt financing, revolving credit facilities, and syndications in KKR's Capital Markets business line. As of March 31, 2026, these capital markets commitments amounted to $0.6 billion. Whether these amounts are actually funded, in whole or in part, depends on the contractual terms of such capital markets commitments, including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions to closing or funding. KKR's capital markets business has arrangements with third parties, which are expected to reduce KKR's risk under certain circumstances when underwriting certain debt transactions. As a result, our unfunded capital markets commitments as of March 31, 2026, have been reduced to reflect the amount expected to be funded by such third parties. As of March 31, 2026, KKR's capital markets business line has entered into such arrangements representing a total notional amount of $5.0 billion. Global Atlantic has commitments to purchase or fund investments of $6.2 billion as of March 31, 2026. These commitments include those related to mortgage loans, other lending facilities, and real assets. For those commitments that represent a contractual obligation to extend credit, Global Atlantic has recorded a liability of $28.1 million for current expected credit losses as of March 31, 2026. In addition, Global Atlantic has entered into agreements to purchase loans. Global Atlantic's obligations under these agreements are subject to change, curtailment, and cancellation based on various provisions including repricing mechanics, due diligence reviews, and performance or pool quality, among other factors. Global Atlantic has certain contingent funding obligations related to development-stage renewable energy projects in the amount of $322.2 million as of March 31, 2026, with expiration dates occurring between March 2027 and September 2027. For accounting purposes, these contingent funding obligations are considered guarantees of the obligations of the development-stage renewable energy projects. Non-cancelable Operating Leases KKR's non-cancelable operating leases consist of leases of office space around the world. There are no material rent holidays, contingent rent, rent concessions, or leasehold improvement incentives associated with any of these property leases. In addition to base rentals, certain lease agreements are subject to escalation provisions and rent expense is recognized on a straight‑line basis over the term of the lease agreement. Global Atlantic also enters into land leases for its consolidated investments in renewable energy. Contingent Repayment Guarantees The partnership documents governing KKR's carry-paying investment funds and vehicles generally include a "clawback" provision that, if triggered, may give rise to a contingent obligation requiring the general partner to return amounts to the fund for distribution to the fund investors at the end of the life of the fund. Under a clawback obligation, upon the liquidation of a fund, the general partner is required to return, typically on an after-tax basis, previously distributed carry to the extent that, due to the diminished performance of later investments, the aggregate amount of carry distributions received by the general partner during the term of the fund exceed the amount to which the general partner was ultimately entitled, including the effects of any performance thresholds. KKR has guaranteed its general partners' clawback obligations. As of March 31, 2026, approximately $195 million of carried interest was subject to this clawback obligation, assuming that all applicable carry-paying investment funds were liquidated at their March 31, 2026 fair values. Although KKR would be required to remit the entire amount to fund investors that are entitled to receive the clawback payment, KKR would be entitled to seek reimbursement of approximately $90 million of that amount from Associates Holdings, which is not a KKR subsidiary. As of March 31, 2026, Associates Holdings had access to cash reserves sufficient to reimburse the full $90 million that would be due to KKR. If the investments in all carry-paying funds were to be liquidated at zero value, a possibility that management views to be remote, the clawback obligation would have been approximately $5.4 billion as of March 31, 2026. KKR will acquire control of Associates Holdings when KKR acquires its general partner upon the closing of the transactions contemplated to occur on the Sunset Date (as defined in Note 1 "Organization"), which will occur not later than December 31, 2026. Carried interest is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations based on the contractual conditions set forth in the agreements governing the fund as if the fund were terminated and liquidated at the reporting date and the fund's investments were realized at the then estimated fair values. Amounts earned pursuant to carried interest are earned by the general partner of those funds to the extent that cumulative investment returns are positive and where applicable, preferred return thresholds have been met. If these investment amounts earned decrease or turn negative in subsequent periods, recognized carried interest will be reversed and to the extent that the aggregate amount of carry distributions received by the general partner during the term of the fund exceed the amount to which the general partner was ultimately entitled, and a clawback obligation would be recorded. For funds that are consolidated, this clawback obligation, if any, is reflected as an increase in noncontrolling interests in the consolidated statements of financial condition. For funds that are not consolidated, this clawback obligation, if any, is reflected as a reduction of KKR's investment balance as this is where carried interest is initially recorded. Indemnifications and Other Guarantees KKR may incur contingent liabilities for claims that may be made against it in the future. KKR enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations, warranties and covenants, including indemnifications. KKR and certain of KKR's investment funds have provided and provide certain credit support, such as indemnities and guarantees, relating to a variety of matters, including non-recourse carve-out guarantees for fraud, willful misconduct and other wrongful acts in connection with the financing of (i) certain real estate investments that we have made, including KKR's corporate real estate, and (ii) certain investment vehicles that KKR manages or sponsors. KKR also has provided, and provides, credit support in connection with its businesses, including: i.to certain of its subsidiaries' obligations in connection with a limited number of investment vehicles that KKR manages, ii.in connection with repayment and funding obligations to third-party lenders on behalf of certain employees, excluding its executive officers, in connection with their personal investments in KKR investment funds and a levered multi-asset investment vehicle, iii.the obligations of our subsidiaries' funding obligations to our investment vehicles, and iv.certain of our investment vehicles to fund or otherwise be liable for a portion of their investment losses and/or to provide them with liquidity upon certain termination events. In addition, KKR has agreed to tender to one of its consolidated investment vehicles up to a fixed number of shares that KKR owns in it if the net asset value of such shares is less than an agreed upon value on June 1, 2027. KKR may also become liable for certain fees payable to sellers of businesses or assets if a transaction does not close, subject to certain conditions, if any, specified in the acquisition agreements for such businesses or assets. In addition, the Global Atlantic business was formerly owned by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "Goldman Sachs"). In connection with the separation of Global Atlantic from Goldman Sachs in 2013, Global Atlantic entered into a tax benefit payment agreement with Goldman Sachs. Under the tax benefit payment agreement, Global Atlantic (Fin) Company ("GA FinCo"), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of TGAFG, the holding company for the Global Atlantic business, is obligated to make annual payments out of available cash, guaranteed by Global Atlantic Financial Group Limited, to Goldman Sachs over an approximately 25-year period. As of March 31, 2026, the present value of the remaining amount to be paid is $44.5 million. Although these payments are subordinated and deferrable, deferral of these payments would result in restrictions on distributions by GA FinCo and Global Atlantic Financial Group Limited. Unless otherwise stated above, KKR's maximum exposure under the arrangements described under this section “— Indemnifications and Other Guarantees” are currently unknown as there are no stated or notional amounts included in these arrangements and KKR's liabilities for these matters would require a claim to be made against KKR in the future. Legal Proceedings From time to time, KKR is involved in various legal proceedings, requests for information, lawsuits, arbitration, and claims incidental to the conduct of KKR's businesses. KKR's businesses are also subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory or other legal proceedings against them. Moreover, in the ordinary course of business, KKR is and can be the defendant or the plaintiff in numerous lawsuits with respect to acquisitions, bankruptcy, insolvency and other events. Such lawsuits may involve claims, or may be resolved on terms, that adversely affect the value of certain investments owned by KKR's funds and Global Atlantic's insurance companies. Kentucky Matter In December 2017, KKR & Co. L.P. (which is now KKR Group Co. Inc.) and its then Co-Chief Executive Officers, Henry Kravis and George Roberts, were named as defendants in a lawsuit filed in Kentucky state court (the “2017 Action”) alleging, among other things, the violation of fiduciary and other duties in connection with certain separately managed accounts that Prisma Capital Partners LP, a former subsidiary of KKR, manages for the Kentucky Retirement Systems. Also named as defendants in the lawsuit are certain current and former trustees and officers of the Kentucky Retirement Systems, Prisma Capital Partners LP, and various other service providers to the Kentucky Retirement Systems and their related persons. The 2017 Action was dismissed at the direction of the Supreme Court of Kentucky for lack of Kentucky constitutional standing. This dismissal became final on February 16, 2024. On July 21, 2020, the Office of the Attorney General, on behalf of the Commonwealth of Kentucky (the "Kentucky AG"), filed a new lawsuit in the same Kentucky state court (the “2020 AG Action”) making essentially the same allegations as those raised in the 2017 Action, including against what was then KKR & Co. Inc. (now KKR Group Co. Inc.) and Messrs. Kravis and Roberts. On May 1, 2024, the trial court denied motions to dismiss the 2020 AG Action filed by KKR & Co. Inc. and Messrs. Kravis and Roberts. On April 8, 2024, after receiving permission from the Kentucky trial court in the 2020 AG Action, the Kentucky AG amended its complaint in the 2020 AG Action to add a claim for breach of contract. The Kentucky AG also filed an action (the "2024 AG Action") substantially identical to the 2020 AG Action, including the new claim for breach of contract. On April 23, 2024, KKR & Co. Inc., Messrs. Kravis and Roberts and other defendants moved to strike the Kentucky AG's amended complaint in the 2020 AG Action, to stay consideration of the breach of contract claim and the 2024 AG Action until after the trial court's ruling on the motions to dismiss the 2020 AG Action, and to deny a motion by the Kentucky AG to consolidate the 2020 AG Action and the 2024 AG Action. These motions were denied, and the trial court consolidated the 2020 AG Action with the 2024 AG Action. On June 17, 2024, KKR & Co. Inc., Messrs. Kravis and Roberts and other defendants filed new motions to dismiss the consolidated 2020 AG Action and 2024 AG Action. In January 2021, some of the attorneys for the plaintiffs in the 2017 Action filed a new lawsuit on behalf of a new set of plaintiffs, who claim to be “Tier 3” members of Kentucky Retirement Systems (the “Tier 3 Plaintiffs”), alleging substantially the same allegations as in the 2017 Action. On July 9, 2021, the Tier 3 Plaintiffs served an amended complaint, which purports to assert, on behalf of a class of beneficiaries of Kentucky Retirement Systems, direct claims for breach of fiduciary duty and civil violations under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”). This complaint was removed to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky, which has entered an order staying this case until the completion of the 2020 AG Action. On August 20, 2021, the Tier 3 Plaintiffs and other individual plaintiffs filed a second complaint in Kentucky state court (the “Second Tier 3 Action”), purportedly on behalf of Kentucky Retirement Systems’ funds, alleging the same claims against what was then KKR & Co. Inc. (now KKR Group Co. Inc.) and Messrs. Kravis and Roberts as in the July 9th amended complaint but without the RICO or class action allegations. On May 1, 2024, the trial court denied motions to dismiss the Second Tier 3 Action filed by KKR & Co. Inc. and Messrs. Kravis and Roberts. On July 3, 2024, KKR & Co. Inc., Messrs. Kravis and Roberts and other defendants filed a writ of prohibition asking the Kentucky Court of Appeals to order the trial court to dismiss the Second Tier 3 Action. On November 12, 2024, the Court of Appeals denied the request for a writ of prohibition. Defendants have appealed that denial by petitioning the Kentucky Supreme Court for a writ of prohibition. The Second Tier 3 Action is stayed pending the outcome of this petition. On March 24, 2022, in a separate declaratory judgment action brought by the Commonwealth of Kentucky regarding the enforceability of certain indemnification provisions available to what was then KKR & Co. Inc. (now KKR Group Co. Inc.) and Prisma Capital Partners LP, the Kentucky state court concluded that it has personal jurisdiction over KKR & Co. Inc. in that action, and that the indemnification provisions violated the Kentucky Constitution and were therefore unenforceable. On December 1, 2023, the Kentucky Court of Appeals reversed the trial court’s summary judgment on the issue of personal jurisdiction over KKR & Co. Inc., but affirmed the trial court’s rulings that the indemnification provisions violated the Kentucky Constitution and were unenforceable. On February 5, 2024, the Kentucky Court of Appeals denied the petitions of KKR & Co. Inc. and others for rehearing. On April 8, 2024, KKR & Co. Inc. and other defendants in the declaratory judgment case filed motions with the Supreme Court of Kentucky for discretionary review of the Court of Appeals' December 1, 2023 decision. On August 14, 2024, the Kentucky Supreme Court granted discretionary review in the Kentucky AG’s declaratory judgment case of both personal jurisdiction over KKR & Co. Inc. and the enforceability and constitutionality of the indemnification provisions and, on September 22, 2025, opening briefs were filed by KKR & Co. Inc. and other defendants. The Commonwealth of Kentucky filed its response briefs on November 21, 2025, and KKR & Co. Inc. and other defendants filed their reply briefs on December 15, 2025. On January 8, 2025, KKR, Messrs. Kravis and Roberts, Prisma Capital Partners L.P., and certain other defendants entered into an agreement with the Commonwealth of Kentucky, Kentucky Public Pensions Authority, County Employees Retirement System and Kentucky Retirement Systems (the “KPPA Entities”) to settle the 2020 AG Action and the 2024 AG Action. On May 12, 2025, the Kentucky trial court entered an order declining to enter the parties’ jointly proposed order approving the settlement. Because the receipt of the court’s approval was a contractual condition to the settlement becoming final, the settlement agreement terminated. KKR, Messrs. Kravis and Roberts, Prisma Capital Partners L.P., and the other defendants that were party to the settlement agreement continue to deny any liability, wrongdoing, or damage, maintain that the settlement was not an admission of any fault, liability, wrongdoing or damage, and maintain that they entered into the settlement solely to avoid further legal expense, inconvenience, and the distraction of burdensome and protracted litigation. KKR intends to continue to vigorously defend against all claims against KKR and Messrs. Kravis and Roberts. On November 19, 2025, the Kentucky Public Pensions Authority (“KPPA”) filed a motion to intervene in the consolidated 2020 AG Action and 2024 AG Action to assert claims against KKR & Co. Inc., Prisma Capital Partners LP, and Prisma Capital Partners LLC. On December 8, 2025, the court entered an agreed order tendered by the parties granting KPPA’s motion to intervene and ordering that all briefing and deadlines relating to KPPA’s intervening complaint are stayed pending decision by the Kentucky Supreme Court in the appeals arising out of the Kentucky AG’s declaratory judgment action. Shareholder Derivative Litigation On July 30, 2024, a shareholder derivative complaint was filed in Delaware Chancery Court and was subsequently amended on August 7, 2024 (first amended complaint) and further amended on August 19, 2025 (second amended complaint). The operative second amended complaint claims, among other matters, that the Co-Founders and various current and former executive officers and directors of KKR & Co. Inc. breached fiduciary duties and wasted corporate assets in connection with transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement pursuant to which, among other things, the Co- Founders, certain current and former executive officers, and other senior executives of KKR received common stock from KKR. The suit seeks to recover on behalf of KKR & Co. Inc. a cancellation of shares issued in the reorganization, monetary damages, injunctive relief, restitution, and other remedies. KKR & Co. Inc. and other defendants filed a motion to dismiss the operative second amended complaint on October 6, 2025. On December 18, 2025, plaintiffs filed their opposition to the motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. Defendants filed their response on February 13, 2026. Regulatory Matters KKR currently is, and expects to continue to become from time to time, subject to various examinations, inquiries and investigations by various U.S. and non-U.S. governmental and regulatory agencies. Such examinations, inquiries and investigations may result in the commencement of civil, criminal or administrative proceedings, or the imposition of fines, penalties, or other remedies, against KKR and its personnel. KKR is subject to periodic examinations of its regulated businesses by various U.S. and non-U.S. governmental and regulatory agencies, including but not limited to the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"), the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, Central Bank of Ireland, Monetary Authority of Singapore, U.S. state insurance regulatory authorities, and the Bermuda Monetary Authority. KKR may also become subject to civil, criminal, administrative, or other inquiries or investigations (through a request for information, civil investigative demand, subpoena or otherwise) by any of the foregoing governmental and regulatory agencies as well as by any other U.S. or non-U.S. governmental or regulatory agency, including but not limited to the SEC, U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ"), U.S. state attorney generals, and similar non-U.S. governmental or regulatory agencies. Since 2022, as previously disclosed, KKR has been subject to investigations by the Antitrust Division of the DOJ (the “DOJ”) related to the accuracy and completeness of certain filings made by KKR pursuant to the premerger notification requirements under the Hart‐Scott‐Rodino Act of 1976 (“HSR”) for certain transactions in 2021 and 2022. On January 14, 2025, the DOJ filed a civil antitrust complaint (the “DOJ Complaint”) in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against KKR and various KKR-sponsored investment entities (the “KKR Defendants”) alleging violations of the HSR Act. The DOJ Complaint requests various relief for the alleged violations of the HSR Act by the KKR Defendants, including civil penalties in an amount to be determined and various equitable relief, including potential disgorgement and injunctive relief against future violations of the HSR Act. On January 14, 2025, KKR filed a complaint (the “KKR Complaint”) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia against Doha Mekki in her official capacity as Acting Assistant Attorney General of the United States for the Antitrust Division, the DOJ, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), and the United States of America pertaining to the HSR- related investigations conducted by the DOJ. On January 16, 2025, KKR voluntarily dismissed the KKR Complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia and re-filed it in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York as related to the DOJ Complaint. The KKR Complaint requests various forms of relief, including declaratory judgments that: (i) KKR did not violate the HSR Act; (ii) the DOJ’s and FTC’s interpretations of the HSR Act are unconstitutionally vague; and (iii) the DOJ seeks an excessive fine in violation of the U.S. Constitution. KKR intends to vigorously defend against the DOJ Complaint and filed a motion to dismiss the DOJ Complaint on April 17, 2025. The DOJ filed its motion to dismiss the KKR Complaint on April 23, 2025, and KKR and the DOJ agreed to dismiss one count of the KKR Complaint and to stay the rest of the DOJ’s motion to dismiss pending resolution of KKR’s motion to dismiss the DOJ Complaint. The DOJ has continued its investigations into certain of KKR’s past HSR filings, and KKR continues to cooperate in connection with these investigations. The DOJ may initiate additional civil or criminal proceedings or take other actions against KKR, its employees or portfolio companies, which could include further antitrust investigations into past HSR filings or transactions or other purported violations of law. There can be no certainty as to the possible outcome of the DOJ Complaint, the KKR Complaint, the DOJ’s investigations, or such other proceedings or other actions, any of which could result in a range of adverse financial and non‐ financial consequences to KKR. Even in the event that the parties are able to settle the pending litigation, it is possible that any such settlement could involve significant monetary penalties and/or other possible remedial measures. In addition, KKR is currently, and may from time to time become, subject to other investigations by the Antitrust Division of the DOJ and other U.S. or non-U.S. governmental authorities related to antitrust matters, including the European Commission’s investigation relating to the acquisition of certain infrastructure assets of Telecom Italia S.p.A. and FiberCop S.p.A. KKR is currently cooperating in connection with these other investigations. Loss Contingencies KKR establishes an accrued liability for legal or regulatory proceedings only when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. KKR includes in its financial statements the amount of any reserve for regulatory, litigation and related matters that Global Atlantic includes in its financial statements. No loss contingency is recorded for matters where such losses are either not probable or reasonably estimable (or both) at the time of determination. Such matters also have the possibility of resulting in losses in excess of any amounts accrued. To the extent KKR can in any particular period estimate an aggregate range of reasonably possible losses, these decisions involve significant judgment given that it is inherently difficult to determine whether any loss for a matter is probable or even possible or to estimate the amount of any loss in many legal, governmental and regulatory matters. Estimating an accrued liability or a reasonably possible loss involves significant judgment due to many uncertainties, including among others: (i) the proceeding may be in early stages; (ii) damages sought may be unspecified, unsupportable, unexplained or uncertain; (iii) discovery may not have been started or is incomplete; (iv) there may be uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions; (v) there may be significant factual issues to be resolved; (vi) there may be novel legal issues or unsettled legal theories to be presented or a large number of parties; or (vii) the proceeding relates to a regulatory examination, inquiry, or investigation. It is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of all pending litigations, arbitrations, claims, and governmental or regulatory examinations, inquiries, investigations and proceedings, and some of the matters discussed above seek or may seek potentially large or indeterminate relief. Consequently, management is unable as of the date of filing of this report to estimate an amount or range of reasonably possible losses related to matters pending against KKR. In addition, any amounts accrued as loss contingencies or disclosed as reasonably possible losses may be, in part or in whole, subject to insurance or other payments such as contributions and indemnity, which may reduce any ultimate loss. As of the date of filing this report, management does not believe, based on currently available information, that the outcomes of the matters pending against KKR will have a material adverse effect upon its financial statements. However, given the potentially large and/or indeterminate relief sought or that may be sought in certain of these matters and the inherent unpredictability of litigations, arbitrations, claims, and governmental or regulatory examinations, inquiries, investigations and proceedings, it is possible that an adverse outcome in certain matters could have a material adverse effect on KKR's financial results in any future period. In addition, there can be no assurance that material losses will not be incurred from claims that have not yet been asserted or those where potential losses have not yet been determined to be probable or possible and reasonably estimable. Other Financing Arrangements Global Atlantic has financing arrangements with unaffiliated third parties to support the reserves of its affiliated special purpose reinsurers. Total fees associated with these financing arrangements were $4.7 million and $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and are included in insurance expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the total capacity of the financing arrangements with third parties was $2.6 billion and $2.6 billion, respectively. Other than the matters disclosed above, there were no outstanding or unpaid balances from the financing arrangements with unaffiliated third parties as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. 25. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Dividends A dividend of $0.195 per share of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. has been declared and was announced on May 5, 2026.

Strategic acquisition of Arctos On May 4, 2026, KKR closed the acquisition of Arctos Partners, LP (“Arctos”), an investment firm that provides strategic growth capital and liquidity solutions to sports franchises and to private investment fund sponsors, on terms consistent with those previously disclosed. ## Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of KKR & Co. Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, and the related notes included elsewhere in this report and our Annual Report, including the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and “Business” section contained therein. In addition, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including those described under "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements" and "Business Environment" in this report and our Annual Report and "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report, and our other filings with the SEC. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report are hereafter referred to as the "financial statements." Additionally, the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition are referred to herein as the "consolidated statements of financial condition"; the condensed consolidated statements of operations are referred to herein as the "consolidated statements of operations"; the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) are referred to herein as the "consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss)"; the condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity are referred to herein as the "consolidated statements of changes in equity"; and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows are referred to herein as the "consolidated statements of cash flows." Overview KKR is a leading global investment firm that offers alternative asset management as well as capital markets and insurance solutions. We aim to generate attractive investment returns by following a patient and disciplined investment approach, employing world-class people, and supporting growth in our portfolio companies and communities. Founded in 1976, KKR pioneered the leveraged buyout strategy and has been a leader of the private equity industry for five decades. Since the inception of our firm, we have expanded our investment strategies and product offerings from traditional private equity to other alternative asset classes such as leveraged credit, alternative credit, infrastructure, real estate, energy, growth equity, and core private equity. Over the same period, we scaled from being a U.S.-focused firm to a global operation with 35 offices around the world as of March 31, 2026. Our business further expanded with the acquisition of Global Atlantic in 2021, which today conducts our insurance business providing retirement and life insurance solutions. As of March 31, 2026, we managed $758 billion of assets under management, of which $220 billion comes from Global Atlantic. Our three reporting segments align with the KKR business model: Our business model of (i) Asset Management, (ii) Insurance, and (iii) Strategic Holdings corresponds to our three reporting segments. We have purposely created a business model that we believe enables us to grow long-term, durable, recurring earnings with a focus on large addressable markets where we can be an industry leader. Importantly, these pieces were built to leverage our core strengths as a firm: investing acumen, capital allocation expertise and our collaborative culture. Business Segments Asset Management In Asset Management, we have five business lines: (i) Private Equity, (ii) Real Assets, (iii) Credit and Liquid Strategies, (iv) Capital Markets, and (v) Principal Activities. Our Assets Under Management have grown and diversified in the last 15 years across Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies as illustrated on the following chart. KKR has evolved from a relatively US-centric and traditional private equity firm to a global alternative asset manager. As of December 31, 2010, our traditional Private Equity strategy represented over 70% of our total AUM. As of March 31, 2026, traditional Private Equity was less than 25% of our total AUM. Assets Under Management ($ in billions): Liquid Strategies Alternative Credit Credit and Liquid Strategies(1) $329 +18% CAGR Leveraged Credit Real Estate Real Assets(2) $198 Infrastructure & Energy Growth Equity Core Private Equity Private Equity $231 Traditional Private Equity (1) As of March 31, 2026, Alternative Credit AUM includes $92 billion of asset-based finance, $49 billion of corporate private credit (including $39 billion of direct lending) and $8 billion of strategic investments. (2) Real estate credit lends across the risk return spectrum of investments secured by or relating to real property, including senior mortgage loans, mezzanine loans and mortgage-backed securities in North America and Europe. As of March 31, 2026, real estate credit AUM totals $44 billion. Real estate equity seeks core, core+ and opportunistic real estate investment opportunities by geography: North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. As of March 31, 2026, real estate equity AUM totals $40 billion. This includes $12 billion from the management of two publicly listed Japanese REITs through our subsidiary, KJRM. (3) The K-Series suite of vehicles are offered through various distribution channels to investors in the U.S. and other jurisdictions around the world. We have K-Series vehicles that operate or invest in private equity companies, infrastructure assets, credit investments, and real estate. As of March 31, 2026, total K-Series AUM was $38 billion, which has grown significantly over the past three years. As an asset management firm, we earn recurring management fees and fee-related performance revenues for providing investment management services and expertise to our institutional and individual investors who entrust us with their capital. The amount of fees we charge for managing these assets depends on the underlying investment strategy, liquidity profile, and ultimately our ability to generate attractive investment returns for our clients. We earn transaction fees for providing capital markets services as a broker-dealer, and we also earn transaction and monitoring fees as part of the management of our portfolio companies. Carried interest that we receive from our investment vehicles entitles us to a specified percentage of investment gains that are generated on third-party capital that is invested. We earn investment income by investing our own capital alongside investors in our funds and other investment vehicles and from other assets we own on our balance sheet. Operating expenses, which include occupancy expenses and other typical operating expenses, are shared across a single expense pool given the collaborative nature of our five business lines within Asset Management. Insurance Our insurance business operates under the Global Atlantic brand. Global Atlantic is a leading retirement and life insurance company, with an over 20-year track record of providing a broad suite of protection, legacy, and savings products to customers and reinsurance solutions to clients across individual and institutional markets. Global Atlantic primarily generates income by earning a spread between the investment income generated from originated assets and the required cost of benefits payable to policyholders. Global Atlantic also earns fees paid by policyholders on certain types of insurance contracts and fees paid by third-party investors, which are reported in our asset management segment. As of March 31, 2026, Global Atlantic serves over 3.5 million policyholders. The following table represents Global Atlantic’s new business volumes by business and product for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. | ($ in millions) | 2025 | 2026 | | --- | --- | --- | | Individual Channel (1): | | | | Retirement Products | $3,492 | $1,591 | | Preneed Life | 257 | 301 | | Institutional Channel(2)(3) | $3,664 | $1,893 | (1) New business volumes in individual markets are referred to as sales. In Global Atlantic's individual market channel, sales of annuities include all money paid into new and existing contracts. Individual market channel sales for preneed life are based on the face amount of insurance and do not include the recurring premiums that policyholders may pay over time. (2) Block reinsurance transactions may be episodic and volumes may fluctuate. Similarly, funding agreements issued in the FABN program are subject to capital markets conditions and volumes may fluctuate. Flow and pension risk transfer new business volumes typically occur throughout the year. See “— Risks Related to Our Business—Parts of our earnings and cash flow are highly variable due to the nature of our business” in our Annual Report. (3) New business volumes from Global Atlantic’s institutional market channel are based on the assets assumed, net of any ceding commission, and are gross of any retrocessions to investment vehicles that participate in qualifying reinsurance transactions sourced by Global Atlantic and to other third party reinsurers. Strategic Holdings Our Strategic Holdings segment, which we started reporting in the first quarter of 2024, acquires and manages interests in operating companies that are owned by the firm. Today, those companies primarily consist of our participation in our core private equity strategy. We have acquired, and in the future we expect to continue to acquire, other long-term assets outside of, and in addition to, our participation in our core private equity strategy. Strategic Holdings is not limited to acquiring companies in specific industries. We intend to hold the companies in our Strategic Holdings segment over a longer period of time, and we believe most of these companies generally have a lower risk profile than would be typical for an investment through our traditional private equity strategy. We currently expect our Strategic Holdings segment primarily to generate income from the receipt of dividends from our ownership stakes in these businesses and, upon the sale of any ownership stake, realized investment income from such sale. As of March 31, 2026, our Strategic Holdings segment consisted of our ownership stakes in 19 companies. The fees and carried interest paid by the third party investors in our core private equity funds continue to be reported in our Asset Management segment and are not reported in our Strategic Holdings segment. Our Asset Management segment charges a quarterly management fee in our Strategic Holdings segment. Additionally, our Asset Management segment charges a performance fee from the sale of our interests in the companies included in our Strategic Holdings segment. The management and performance fees are charged in order to represent the cost of providing advisory services by our Asset Management segment rather than determining the allocable costs borne by our Asset Management segment to support our Strategic Holdings segment.

Business Environment Our asset management, insurance, and strategic holdings segments are affected by the various market and economic conditions of the various countries and regions in which we operate. Market and economic conditions are expected to continue to have a substantial impact on our financial condition, results of operations, and our business in various ways that we are unable to control, including our ability to make new investments, the valuations of the investments we manage, the amount of investment proceeds we realize when we exit our investments, the timing for such realization activity, our ability to fundraise or to sell our various investment and insurance products and services, and the level of our capital markets activities, as discussed in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report. The United States, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, continued to experience economic growth in tandem with inflation in excess of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board’s 2.0% target rate. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board left the federal funds rate unchanged. Real gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth in the Eurozone during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was moderately positive. In Europe during the three months ended March 31, 2026, the European Central Bank maintained interest rates at the same level as for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, leaving the deposit rate unchanged at 2.0% as Eurozone core inflation remained slightly above the European Central Bank’s 2% inflation target.

The United States and countries around the world have experienced elevated levels of market volatility and uncertainty driven by, among other things, geopolitical and global trade concerns, including, the imposition of tariffs and threats of tariffs by the United States on certain of its trading partners since April 2025 and impacts from the recent conflicts in the Middle East. This volatility and uncertainty add to the various risks and uncertainties in the business environment in which we operate and may have various impacts, including on the valuations of certain of our investment vehicles' investments, the pace and volume of our capital market transactions, deployments, and realizations, and our fundraising activities. Other Trends, Uncertainties and Risks Related to Our Business Please refer to the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report for important additional detail regarding risks, uncertainties, and other conditions that could have a material favorable or unfavorable impact on our businesses, including the impact of market and economic conditions on valuations of investments and the impact of competition we face. These risks, uncertainties, and other conditions should be read in conjunction with this Business Environment section and the entire Risk Factor section of our Annual Report. In particular, see "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Global, regional and local events outside of our control, including geopolitical events and natural disasters, could materially and adversely impact KKR", "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—We operate in a highly competitive industry,” "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Investment Activities—Various conditions and events outside of our control that are difficult to quantify or predict may have a significant impact on the valuation of our investments", and "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Insurance Activities—We operate in a highly competitive industry." Basis of Accounting and Key Financial Measures under GAAP We manage our business using certain financial measures and key operating metrics since we believe these metrics measure the productivity of our operating activities. We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). See Note 2 “ Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our financial statements and “—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” contained in this section below. Our key Segment and non-GAAP financial measures and operating metrics are discussed below. Key Segment and Non-GAAP Performance Measures The following key segment and non-GAAP performance measures are used by management in making operational and resource deployment decisions as well as assessing the performance of KKR's business. They include certain financial measures that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP. These performance measures as described below are presented prior to giving effect to the allocation of income (loss) between KKR & Co. Inc. and holders of exchangeable securities and as such represent the entire KKR business in total. In addition, these performance measures are presented without giving effect to the consolidation of certain investment funds and collateralized financing entities ("CFEs") that KKR manages. We believe that providing these segment and non-GAAP performance measures on a supplemental basis to our GAAP results is helpful to stockholders in assessing the overall performance of KKR's business. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these non- GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, where applicable, are included under "—Segment Balance Sheet Measures—Reconciliations to GAAP Measures." Adjusted Net Income Adjusted Net Income ("ANI") is a performance measure of KKR’s earnings, which is derived from KKR’s reported segment results. ANI is used to assess the performance of KKR’s business operations and measures the earnings potentially available for distribution to its equity holders or reinvestment into its business. ANI is equal to Total Segment Earnings less Interest Expense, Net and Other and Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings. Interest Expense, Net and Other includes (i) interest expense on debt obligations not attributable to any particular segment and (ii) cumulative dividend expense on the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, net of interest income earned on cash and short-term investments. Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings represents the amount of income taxes that would be paid assuming that all adjusted earnings were allocated to KKR & Co. Inc. and taxed at the same effective rate, which assumes that all securities exchangeable into shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. were exchanged. The economic assumptions and methodologies that impact Income taxes on Adjusted Earnings are similar to those used in calculating the current income tax provision under U.S. GAAP. Equity based compensation expense is excluded from ANI, because (i) KKR believes that the cost of equity awards granted to employees does not contribute to the earnings potentially available for distributions to its equity holders or reinvestment into its business and (ii) excluding this expense makes KKR’s reporting metric more comparable to the corresponding metric presented by other publicly traded companies in KKR’s industry, which KKR believes enhances an investor’s ability to compare KKR’s performance to these other companies. Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings includes the benefit of tax deductions arising from equity-based compensation, which reduces Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings during the period. If tax deductions from equity-based compensation were to be excluded from Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings, KKR’s ANI would be lower and KKR’s effective tax rate would appear to be higher, even though a lower amount of income taxes would have actually been paid or payable during the period. KKR separately discloses the amount of tax deduction from equity-based compensation for the period reported and the effect of its inclusion in ANI for the period. KKR makes these adjustments when calculating ANI in order to more accurately reflect the net realized earnings that are expected to be or become available for distribution to KKR’s equity holders or reinvestment into KKR’s business. However, ANI does not represent and is not used to calculate actual dividends under KKR’s dividend policy, which is a fixed amount per period, and ANI should not be viewed as a measure of KKR’s liquidity. Total Segment Earnings Total Segment Earnings is a performance measure that KKR believes is useful to stockholders as it provides a supplemental measure of our operating performance without taking into account items that KKR does not believe arise from or relate directly to KKR's operations. Total Segment Earnings excludes: (i) equity-based compensation charges, (ii) amortization of acquired intangibles, and (iii) transaction-related and non-operating items, if any. Transaction-related and non-operating items primarily arise from corporate actions, which consist of: (i) impairments, (ii) transaction costs from acquisitions, including any acquisition-related stock consideration, (iii) depreciation on real estate that KKR owns and occupies, (iv) contingent liabilities, net of any recoveries, (v) certain integration, restructuring, and other non-operating expenses, and (vi) other gains or charges that affect period-to-period comparability and are not reflective of KKR's ongoing operational performance. Inter-segment transactions are not eliminated from segment results when management considers those transactions in assessing the results of the respective segments. These transactions include (i) management fees earned by our Asset Management segment as the investment adviser for Global Atlantic insurance companies, (ii) management and performance fees earned by our Asset Management segment for acquiring and managing the companies included in our Strategic Holdings segment, and (iii) interest income and expense based on lending arrangements where our Asset Management segment borrows from our Insurance segment. All these inter-segment transactions are recorded by each segment based on the applicable governing agreements. Additionally, due to the integrated nature of our segment operations and as part of our strategic capital allocation decisions, inter-segment asset transfers have and may continue to occur. In these cases in segment reporting, the assets are transferred at their fair value, and no realization is recognized at the time of transfer. Earnings are recognized upon realization events and transactions with third parties. Total Segment Earnings represents the total segment earnings of KKR’s Asset Management, Insurance and Strategic Holdings segments. Asset Management Segment Earnings Asset management segment earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Asset Management segment. This measure is presented before income taxes and is comprised of: (i) Fee Related Earnings, (ii) Realized Performance Income, (iii) Realized Performance Income Compensation, (iv) Realized Investment Income, and (v) Realized Investment Income Compensation. Asset Management Segment Earnings excludes the impact of: (i) unrealized gains (losses) on investments, (ii) unrealized carried interest, and (iii) unrealized carried interest compensation. Management fees earned by KKR as the adviser, manager or sponsor for its investment funds, vehicles and accounts, including its Global Atlantic insurance companies and Strategic Holdings segment, are included in Asset Management Segment Earnings. Insurance Operating Earnings Insurance Operating Earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Insurance segment. This measure is presented before income taxes and is comprised of: (i) Net Investment Income, (ii) Net Cost of Insurance, and (iii) General, Administrative, and Other Expenses. Insurance Operating Earnings excludes the impact of: (i) investment gains (losses) which include realized gains (losses) related to asset/liability matching investment strategies and unrealized investment gains (losses) and (ii) non-operating changes in policy liabilities and derivatives which includes (a) changes in the fair value of market risk benefits and other policy liabilities measured at fair value and related benefit payments, (b) fees attributed to guaranteed benefits, (c) derivatives used to manage the risks associated with policy liabilities, and (d) losses at contract issuance on payout annuities. Insurance Operating Earnings includes (i) realized gains and losses not related to asset/liability matching investment strategies and (ii) the investment management costs that are earned by our Asset Management segment as the investment adviser of the Global Atlantic insurance companies. Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Strategic Holdings segment. This measure is presented before income taxes and is comprised of: Dividends, Net and Net Realized Investment Income. Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings excludes the impact of unrealized gains (losses) on investments. Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings includes management fees and performance fee expenses that are earned by the Asset Management segment. Fee Related Earnings Fee related earnings is a performance measure used to assess the Asset Management segment’s generation of earnings from revenues that are measured and received on a more recurring basis as compared to KKR’s investing earnings. KKR believes this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the profitability of our fee generating asset management and capital markets businesses. FRE equals (i) Management Fees, including fees paid by the Insurance and Strategic Holdings segments to the Asset Management segment and fees paid by Ivy vehicles and other reinsurance vehicles, (ii) Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net and (iii) Fee Related Performance Revenues, less (x) Fee Related Compensation, and (y) Other Operating Expenses. Fee Related Performance Revenues refers to the realized portion of performance fees from certain AUM that has an indefinite term and for which there is no immediate requirement to return invested capital to investors upon the realization of investments. Fee related performance revenues consists of performance fees (i) expected to be received from our investment funds, vehicles and accounts on a recurring basis, and (ii) that are not dependent on a realization event involving investments held by the investment fund, vehicle or account. Fee Related Compensation refers to the compensation expense, excluding equity-based compensation, paid from (i) Management Fees, (ii) Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net, and (iii) Fee Related Performance Revenues. Other Operating Expenses represents the sum of (i) occupancy and related charges and (ii) other operating expenses. Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings is a performance measure used to assess the firm’s earnings from companies and businesses reported through its Strategic Holdings segment. Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings currently consists of earnings derived from dividends that the firm receives from businesses acquired through the firm’s participation in our core private equity strategy. Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings currently equals dividends less management fees that are earned by our Asset Management segment. This measure is used by management to assess the Strategic Holdings segment’s generation of earnings from revenues that are measured and received on a more recurring basis than, and are not dependent on, realizations from investment activities. Total Operating Earnings Total Operating Earnings is a performance measure that represents the sum of (i) FRE, (ii) Insurance Operating Earnings, and (iii) Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings. KKR believes this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the profitability of the most recurring forms of earnings from each of KKR’s segments as compared to investing earnings. Total Investing Earnings Total Investing Earnings is a performance measure that represents the sum of (i) Net Realized Performance Income and (ii) Net Realized Investment Income. KKR believes this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the earnings of KKR’s segments from the realization of investments. Total Asset Management Segment Revenues Total Asset Management Segment Revenues is a performance measure that represents the realized revenues of the Asset Management segment (which excludes unrealized carried interest and unrealized gains (losses) on investments) and is the sum of (i) Management Fees, (ii) Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net, (iii) Fee Related Performance Revenues, (iv) Realized Performance Income, and (v) Realized Investment Income. Asset Management Segment Revenues excludes Realized Investment Income earned based on the performance of businesses presented in the Strategic Holdings segment. KKR believes that this performance measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into all forms of realized revenues generated by our Asset Management segment. Key Operating and Capital Metrics Assets Under Management Assets under management represent the assets managed (including core private equity), advised or sponsored by KKR from which KKR is entitled to receive management fees or performance income (currently or upon a future event), general partner capital, and assets managed, advised or sponsored by our strategic BDC partnership and the hedge fund and other managers in which KKR holds an ownership interest. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the capital raising activities of KKR and its hedge fund and other managers and the overall activity in their investment funds and other managed or sponsored capital. KKR calculates the amount of AUM as of any date as the sum of: (i) the fair value of the investments of KKR's investment funds and certain co-investment vehicles; (ii) uncalled capital commitments from these funds, including uncalled capital commitments from which KKR is currently not earning management fees or performance income; (iii) the asset value of the Global Atlantic insurance companies; (iv) the par value of outstanding CLOs; (v) KKR's pro rata portion of the AUM of hedge fund and other managers in which KKR holds an ownership interest; (vi) all of the AUM of KKR's strategic BDC partnership; (vii) the acquisition cost of invested assets of certain non-US real estate investment trusts and (viii) the value of other assets managed or sponsored by KKR. The pro rata portion of the AUM of hedge fund and other managers is calculated based on KKR’s percentage ownership interest in such entities multiplied by such entity’s respective AUM. KKR's definition of AUM (i) is not based on any definition of AUM that may be set forth in the governing documents of the investment funds, vehicles, accounts or other entities whose capital is included in this definition, (ii) includes assets for which KKR does not act as an investment adviser, and (iii) is not calculated pursuant to any regulatory definitions. Capital Invested Capital invested is the aggregate amount of capital invested by (i) KKR’s investment funds (including core private equity) and Global Atlantic insurance companies, (ii) KKR's Principal Activities business line as a co-investment, if any, alongside KKR’s investment funds, and (iii) KKR's Principal Activities business line in connection with a syndication transaction conducted by KKR's Capital Markets business line, if any. Capital invested is used as a measure of investment activity at KKR during a given period. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides a measure of capital deployment across KKR’s business lines. Capital invested includes investments made using investment financing arrangements like credit facilities, as applicable. Capital invested excludes (i) investments in certain leveraged credit strategies, (ii) capital invested by KKR’s Principal Activities business line that is not a co-investment alongside KKR’s investment funds, and (iii) capital invested by KKR’s Principal Activities business line that is not invested in connection with a syndication transaction by KKR’s Capital Markets business line. Capital syndicated by KKR's Capital Markets business line to third parties other than KKR’s investment funds or Principal Activities business line is not included in capital invested. Fee Paying AUM Fee paying AUM represents only the AUM from which KKR is entitled to receive management fees. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the capital base upon which KKR earns management fees. FPAUM is the sum of all of the individual fee bases that are used to calculate management fees and differs from AUM in the following respects: (i) assets and commitments from which KKR is not entitled to receive a management fee are excluded (e.g., assets and commitments with respect to which it is entitled to receive only performance income or is otherwise not currently entitled to receive a management fee) and (ii) certain assets, primarily in its private equity funds, are reflected based on capital commitments and invested capital as opposed to fair value because fees are not impacted by changes in the fair value of underlying investments. Uncalled Commitments Uncalled commitments is the aggregate amount of unfunded capital commitments that KKR’s investment funds and carry-paying co-investment vehicles (including core private equity) have received from fund investors to contribute capital to fund future investments, and the amount of uncalled commitments is not reduced by capital invested using borrowings under an investment fund’s subscription facility until capital is called from our fund investors. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the amount of capital that is available to KKR’s investment funds and carry paying co-investment vehicles to make future investments. Uncalled commitments are not reduced for investments completed using fund-level investment financing arrangements or investments we have committed to make but remain unfunded at the reporting date. Analysis of Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations (GAAP Basis - Unaudited) The following is a discussion of our condensed consolidated results of operations on a GAAP basis for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. You should read this discussion in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our segment results in these periods, see "—Analysis of Segment Operating Results." See "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report and "—Business Environment" in this report for more information about risks, uncertainties, and other market and economic conditions that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results, and valuations. Effective beginning in the first quarter of 2026, KKR has modified the presentation of certain operating expenses in its consolidated statements of operations. Amounts previously presented separately as “Insurance Expenses” and “General, Administrative and Other” are now presented in a single line item, “Policy and Other Operating Expense”. Prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-period presentation.

For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our transaction fees during the period, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results." The increase in management fees was primarily attributable to (i) management fees commencing at North America Fund XIV in the second quarter of 2025, (ii) management fees earned on new capital raised over the past twelve months by our private equity and infrastructure K-Series vehicles, and (iii) management fees earned on new capital raised over the past twelve months at Global Infrastructure Investors V. The increase was partially offset by (i) a decrease in management fees earned from North America Fund XIII as a result of entering its post-investment period in the second quarter of 2025 and now paying fees based on invested capital rather than committed capital and at a lower fee rate, and (ii) a decrease in management fees earned from Americas Fund XII due to a step-down in the management fee rate in the third quarter of 2025. Management fees due from consolidated investment funds and other investment vehicles are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. However, because these amounts are funded by, and earned from, noncontrolling interests, upon consolidation under GAAP, KKR's allocated share of the net income from the consolidated investment funds and other investment vehicles is increased by the amount of fees that are eliminated. Accordingly, net income (loss) attributable to KKR would be unchanged if such investment funds and other investment vehicles were not consolidated. For a more detailed discussion on the factors that affect our management fees during the period, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results." Fee credits increased compared to the prior period as a result of (i) a higher level of transaction fees in our Private Equity business line and (ii) a higher level of monitoring fees in our Private Equity and Real Assets business lines. Fee credits owed to consolidated investment funds and other investment vehicles are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. However, because these amounts are owed to noncontrolling interests, upon consolidation under GAAP, KKR's allocated share of the net income from the consolidated investment funds and other investment vehicles is decreased by the amount of fee credits that are eliminated. Accordingly, net income (loss) attributable to KKR would be unchanged if such investment funds and other investment vehicles were not consolidated. Transaction and monitoring fees earned from KKR portfolio companies are not eliminated upon consolidation because those fees are earned from companies which are not consolidated. Furthermore, transaction fees earned in our capital markets business are not shared with fund investors. Accordingly, certain transaction fees are reflected in our revenues without a corresponding fee credit. Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was positive primarily due to the net appreciation of the underlying investments in many of our unconsolidated carry-earning investment vehicles, most notably Global Impact Fund II, our private equity and infrastructure K-Series vehicles, and Asian Fund IV. Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was positive primarily due to the net appreciation of the underlying investments in many of our unconsolidated carry-earning investment vehicles, most notably Asian Fund IV, North America Fund XIII, and Global Infrastructure Fund IV. KKR calculates the carried interest that would be due to KKR for each investment fund, pursuant to the fund agreements, as if the fair value of the underlying investments were realized as of the reporting date, irrespective of whether such amounts have been realized. Since the fair value of the underlying investments varies between reporting periods, it is necessary to make adjustments to the amounts recorded as carried interest to reflect either (i) positive performance, resulting in an increase in the carried interest allocated to the general partner or (ii) negative performance that would cause the amount due to KKR to be less than the amount previously recognized, resulting in a negative adjustment to carried interest allocated to the general partner. In each case, it is necessary to calculate the carried interest on cumulative results compared to the carried interest recorded to date and to make the required positive or negative adjustments. Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 The net losses from investment activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026, were comprised of net realized gains of $106.5 million and net unrealized losses of $(422.9) million. See Note 4 "Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities – Asset Management and Strategic Holdings" in our financial statements for detail of net gains and losses from Investment Activities by asset class. Investment gains and losses relating to our general partner capital interest in our unconsolidated funds are not reflected in our discussion and analysis of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities. Our economics associated with these investment gains and losses are reflected in Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) as described above. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, net gains (losses) from investment activities were driven primarily by (i) mark-to-market losses on our investment in Barracuda Networks, Inc. (technology sector) and PetVet Care Centers, LLC (healthcare sector), (ii) mark-to-market losses on certain investments held in consolidated CLOs, and (iii) mark-to-market losses at certain consolidated credit funds. These mark-to-market losses were partially offset by (i) mark-to-market gains on our investment in 1-800 Contacts, Inc. (health care sector) and USI, Inc. (financial services sector) and (ii) mark-to-market gains on certain foreign exchange forward contracts. Net investment gains (losses) for each asset class are influenced by the valuation methodology applied to each asset, as well as factors specific to each investment. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, net investment gains (losses) were primarily generated in the following asset classes: - Private Equity (including core private equity), which were primarily impacted by a mix of the operating performance of certain portfolio companies and market multiples changes across various sectors. Changes in market multiples varied across regions and sectors used in the market comparables methodology for the valuation of Level III investments; and - Real Assets, which primarily benefited from the overall positive operating performance of certain infrastructure and energy assets. Changes in market multiples varied across regions and sectors used in the market comparables methodology for the valuation of Level III investments. See "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report and "—Business Environment" for more information about the factors that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results, and valuation. Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 The net gains from investment activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025, were comprised of net realized gains of $70.2 million and net unrealized gains of $1,016.4 million. See Note 4 "Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities - Asset Management and Strategic Holdings" in our financial statements for detail of realized and unrealized gains and losses from Investment Activities by asset class. Investment gains and losses relating to our general partner capital interest in our unconsolidated funds are not reflected in our discussion and analysis of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities. Our economics associated with these investment gains and losses are reflected in Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) as described above.  For the three months ended March 31, 2025, net gains (losses) from investment activities were driven primarily by mark- to-market gains primarily relating to our investments in USI, Inc. and IVI-RMA Global, S.L. (health care sector), and PO Söderberg & Partner Holding AB (financial services sector). These mark-to-market gains were partially offset by mark-to- market losses primarily relating to our investment in PetVet Care Centers, LLC and on certain investments held in consolidated CLOs. The factors that affect each investment strategy vary depending on the nature of the asset class and the valuation methodology employed. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, net investment gains (losses) were primarily generated in the following asset classes: - Private Equity (including core private equity), which were primarily impacted by overall positive operating performance of certain portfolio companies. Changes in market multiples varied across regions and sectors used in the market comparables methodology for the valuation of Level III investments; and - Infrastructure, which primarily benefited from the overall positive operating performance of certain infrastructure assets, partially offset by slightly higher cost of capital assumptions. Changes in market multiples varied across regions and sectors used in the market comparables methodology for the valuation of Level III investments. Dividend Income During the three months ended March 31, 2026, dividend income was primarily from (i) our investment in USI, Inc. (financial services sector) and (ii) various investments in certain of our consolidated opportunistic real estate equity funds. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, dividend income was primarily from (i) our investments in Atlantic Aviation FBO Inc. (infrastructure: transportation sector) and Grupo Alvic FR Mobiliario (retail sector) and (ii) various investments in certain of our consolidated opportunistic real estate equity funds. Significant dividends from portfolio companies and consolidated funds are generally not recurring quarterly dividends, and while they may occur in the future, their size and frequency are variable. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's dividend income, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results." Interest Income The decrease in interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily due to (i) the impact of lower market interest rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), during the current period on floating rate credit investments held in consolidated CLOs and certain of our consolidated alternative credit funds and (ii) investment monetizations at certain consolidated alternative credit funds subsequent to March 31, 2025. The decrease was partially offset by the impact of closing CLOs that are consolidated subsequent to March 31, 2025. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest income, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results." Interest Expense The increase in interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily due to (i) the impact of closing CLOs that were consolidated subsequent to March 31, 2025, and (ii) an increase in the amount of borrowings outstanding. The increase was partially offset by a decrease due to the impact of lower market interest rates, such as SOFR, during the current period on floating rate debt obligations held in consolidated CLOs and at certain consolidated funds and other investment vehicles. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest expense, see "—Key Segment and Non-GAAP Performance Measures." Expenses Compensation and Benefits The decrease in compensation and benefits during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily due to a lower level of accrued carried interest compensation driven by a lower level of carried interest income earned in the current period. Occupancy and Related Charges The increase in occupancy and related charges during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily due to new office leases commencing subsequent to March 31, 2025. General, Administrative and Other The increase in general, administrative and other expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily due to a higher level of expenses reimbursable from our investment funds and a higher level of information technology and corporate general and administrative costs.  Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations (GAAP Basis - Unaudited) - Insurance Revenues For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, revenues consisted of the following: | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Net Premiums | $561,970 | $323,364 | $238,606 | | Policy Fees | 325,694 | 338,473 | (12,779) | | Net Investment Income | 1,989,064 | 1,783,280 | 205,784 | | Net Investment-Related Gains (Losses) | (652,697) | (1,436,337) | 783,640 | | Other Income | 65,257 | 55,488 | 9,769 | | Total Insurance Revenues | $2,289,288 | $1,064,268 | $1,225,020 | Net Premiums Net premiums increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to an increase in new premiums earned on assumed flow payout annuities and direct pension risk transfer in the institutional market channel, and preneed insurance products in the individual market channel (all with either life contingencies or morbidity risk.) Initial premiums from new business are generally offset by a comparable change in policy reserves reported within net policy benefits and claims (as discussed below under “Expenses—Net policy benefits and claims”). Net Investment Income Net investment income increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to (i) increased average assets under management due to growth in assets in the institutional and individual market channels as a result of the cumulative impact of new business volumes in the preceding twelve months, and (ii) an increase in average portfolio yields due to portfolio rotation into higher yielding fixed maturity debt securities, and investment in alternative asset classes, such as real assets. Net Investment-Related Gains (Losses) The components of net investment-related gains (losses) were as follows: | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Equity Index Options | $(332,019) | $(339,801) | $7,782 | | Interest Rate Contracts | (64,847) | 174,989 | (239,836) | | Equity Futures Contracts | 21,109 | 28,694 | (7,585) | | Foreign Exchange and Other Derivative Contracts | 80,822 | (75,833) | 156,655 | | Funds Withheld Payable Embedded Derivatives | 279,317 | (423,563) | 702,880 | | Funds Withheld Receivable Embedded Derivatives | (18,830) | (24,066) | 5,236 | | Net Gains (Losses) on Derivative Instruments | (34,448) | (659,580) | 625,132 | | Net Other Investment Gains (Losses) | (618,249) | (776,757) | 158,508 | | Net Investment-Related Gains (Losses) | $(652,697) | $(1,436,337) | $783,640 | Net Gains (Losses) on Derivative Instruments The increase in the fair value of embedded derivatives on funds withheld at interest payable for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by the changes in the fair value of the underlying investments in the funds withheld at interest payable portfolio, which is primarily comprised of fixed maturity securities (designated as trading for accounting purposes), mortgage and other loan receivables, and real asset investments. The underlying investments in the funds withheld at interest payable portfolio decreased in value during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and increased during the three months ended March 31, 2025, resulting in, respectively a gain and a loss on the related embedded derivative. The changes in fair value of the underlying portfolios are primarily due to market interest changes – during the three months ended March 31, 2026, market interest rates generally increased (for example, yields on 10 and 30-year U.S. Treasury securities were generally higher in absolute terms and increased during the period). In contrast, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, market interest rates generally decreased (for example, yields on 10 and 30-year U.S. Treasury securities were generally lower in absolute terms, and declining during the period). The decrease in the fair value of interest rate contracts was primarily driven by an increase in market interest rates during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to a decrease in market interest rates during the three months ended March 31, 2025, resulting in a loss on interest rate contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to a gain on interest rate contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in the fair value of foreign exchange and other derivative contracts was primarily driven by (i) an appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the euro and British pound during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to a depreciation of the U.S. dollar against the euro and British pound during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and (ii) an increase in the notional amount of foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding. The increase in the fair value of equity index options was primarily driven by the performance of the underlying indices. Global Atlantic purchases equity index options to hedge the market risk of embedded derivatives in indexed universal life and fixed-indexed annuity products (the change in which is accounted for in net policy benefits and claims). The majority of Global Atlantic's equity index options are based on the S&P 500 Index, which decreased during both the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. In addition, the average notional amount of equity market contracts outstanding as of March 31, 2026, increased as compared to March 31, 2025. Net Other Investment Gains (Losses) The components of net other investment gains (losses) were as follows: | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Realized Gains (Losses) on Investments Not Supporting Asset-Liability Matching Strategies | $— | $9,520 | $(9,520) | | Realized Gains (Losses) on Available-for-Sale Fixed Maturity Securities | (97,816) | (1,117,445) | 1,019,629 | | Credit Loss Allowances | (228,416) | (84,670) | (143,746) | | Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Fixed Maturity Securities Classified as Trading | (284,283) | 259,207 | (543,490) | | Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Other Investments Accounted Under a Fair-Value Option and Equity Investments | (42,275) | 42,075 | (84,350) | | Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Real Assets | (12,269) | 19,329 | (31,598) | | Realized Gains (Losses) on Real Assets | 16,775 | 10,501 | 6,274 | | Realized Gains (Losses) on Funds Withheld at Interest Payable Portfolio | 29,007 | 75,986 | (46,979) | | Realized Gains (Losses) on Funds Withheld at Interest Receivable Portfolio | (1,775) | (50,267) | 48,492 | | Foreign Exchange Gains (Losses) on Non-USD Denominated Investments | (50,308) | 76,093 | (126,401) | | Other | 53,111 | (17,086) | 70,197 | | Net Other Investment-Related Gains (Losses) | $(618,249) | $(776,757) | $158,508 | The increase in net other investment-related gains (losses) for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily due to a decrease in realized losses on available-for-sale fixed maturity securities due to a decrease in portfolio repositioning trades during the current quarter. Offsetting this increase was (i) a decrease in unrealized gains (losses) on fixed maturity securities classified as trading due to an increase in market interest rates during the quarter, (ii) an increase in credit loss allowances on mortgage and other loan receivables and available-for- sale fixed maturity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2026, (iii) a decrease in foreign exchange gains (losses) on non-USD denominated investments due to the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the euro and British pound during three months ended March 31, 2026, and an increase in the notional amount of non-USD denominated investments (largely offset by the change in foreign exchange derivative contracts noted above under “Net Gains (Losses) on Derivative Instruments”), and (vi) a decrease in unrealized gains (losses) on investments accounted under a fair value option and real assets, primarily due to unfavorable changes in the related market segment multiples. Expenses Net Policy Benefits and Claims Net policy benefits and claims increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to (i) an increase in new business flows from assumed flow payout annuities, direct pension risk transfer, and preneed insurance products (all with either life contingencies or morbidity risk) in the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, and (ii) higher average funding costs due to higher crediting rates and the ordinary-course run-off of older business originated in a low interest rate environment. The above increases in net policy benefits and claims were offset in part by (i) a decrease in market risk benefits losses for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, which was largely driven by an increase in long-term market interest rates (such as yields on 10- and 30-year U.S Treasury securities) and wider credit spreads for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to a decrease in long-term market interest rates and narrower credit spreads during the three months ended March 31, 2025, (ii) the change in the value of embedded derivatives in Global Atlantic’s fixed indexed annuity products; (As discussed above under "—Consolidated Results of Operations (GAAP Basis)—Revenues—Net investment-related gains (losses)", Global Atlantic purchases equity index options in order to hedge this risk, the fair value changes of which are accounted for in gains (losses) on derivative instruments, and generally offsets the change in embedded derivative fair value reported in net policy benefits and claims), and (iii) the non-recurrence of unfavorable impacts related to the assumption review for the three months ended March 31, 2025 described below. The assumptions on which reserves, deferred revenue and expenses are based are intended to represent an estimate of the benefits that are expected to be payable to, and fees or premiums that are expected to be collectible from, policyholders in future periods. Global Atlantic reviews the adequacy of its reserves, deferred revenue and expenses, and the assumptions underlying those items at least annually, usually in the third quarter, referred to as an “assumption review.” For the three months ended March 31, 2025, there was a net unfavorable assumption review impact of $42.3 million on income before taxes, which was primarily due to a change in the activation assumption related to certain benefit riders on fixed-indexed annuities. Amortization of Policy Acquisition Costs Amortization of policy acquisition costs increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to (i) an increase in amortization of cost-of-reinsurance assets, and (ii) an increase in amortization of deferred acquisition costs primarily driven by acquisition costs deferred and amortized due to growth in annuity and preneed insurance new business volumes. Interest Expense Interest expense increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to an increase in total debt outstanding. Policy and Other Operating Expense Policy and other operating expense increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to (i) an increase in compensation expense, (ii) an increase in amortization of certain insurance distribution intangibles, and (iii) an increase in administrative and professional fees. Offsetting these increases was a decrease in commission expense due to a decrease in individual channel new business volumes, primarily in fixed-rate annuities, as compared against the three months ended March 31, 2025. Other Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations (GAAP Basis - Unaudited) Income Tax Expense (Benefit) Income tax expense was $185 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $87 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The effective tax rate also increased and was primarily driven by the impact of noncontrolling interests, the income (loss) of which is not subject to taxes that are payable by KKR & Co. Inc. and its subsidiaries. As reported in Note 18 "Income Taxes" the calculation of the effective tax rate of 40% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, includes the impact of investment losses attributable to noncontrolling interest holders. For a discussion of factors that impacted KKR's tax provision, see Note 18 "Income Taxes" in our financial statements included elsewhere in this report. Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests Net income (loss) attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests relates primarily to net income (loss) attributable to third-party limited partner interests in consolidated investment funds and other investment vehicles when the noncontrolling interests have redemption features that are not solely within the control of KKR. Net income (loss) attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to net losses from investment activities at these consolidated investment funds and other investment vehicles. Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests relates primarily to net income (loss) attributable to (i) non- redeemable third-party limited partner interests in consolidated investment funds and other investment vehicles and (ii) exchangeable securities representing ownership interests in KKR Group Partnership until they are exchanged for common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to net losses from investment activities at certain of our consolidated investment funds and other investment vehicles. Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. Net income (loss) attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was net positive as compared to a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to (i) a lower level of insurance investment- related losses and (ii) a higher level of asset management fee related income, which were partially offset by (i) a lower level of capital allocation-based income from our asset management business and (ii) mark-to-market investment-related losses attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. from our asset management and strategic holdings activities. Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition (GAAP Basis - Unaudited) Please see our consolidated statements of financial condition on a GAAP basis as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 in our financial statements included in this report. KKR & Co. Inc. Stockholders’ Equity - Common Stock decreased from December 31, 2025 primarily due to (i) unrealized losses on available for sale securities from Global Atlantic that are recorded in other comprehensive income, (ii) dividends to common and preferred stockholders, and (iii) common stock repurchases, which were partially offset by net income attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. common stockholders. Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (GAAP Basis - Unaudited)  The following is a discussion of our consolidated cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. You should read this discussion in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. The consolidated statements of cash flows include the cash flows of our consolidated entities, which include certain consolidated investment funds, CLOs and certain variable interest entities formed by Global Atlantic notwithstanding the fact that we may hold only a minority economic interest in those investment funds and CFEs. The assets of our consolidated investment funds and CFEs, on a gross basis, can be substantially larger than the assets of our business and, accordingly, could have a substantial effect on the cash flows reflected in our consolidated statements of cash flows. The primary cash flow activities of our consolidated funds and CFEs involve: (i) capital contributions from fund investors; (ii) using the capital of fund investors to make investments; (iii) financing certain investments with indebtedness; (iv) generating cash flows through the realization of investments; and (v) distributing cash flows from the realization of investments to fund investors. Because our consolidated investment funds are treated as investment companies for accounting purposes, certain of these cash flow amounts are included in our cash flows from operations. Net Cash Provided (Used) by Operating Activities Our net cash provided (used) by operating activities was $1.7 billion and $2.5 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our operating activities primarily included: (i) investments purchased (asset management and strategic holdings), net of proceeds from investments (asset management and strategic holdings) of $(0.2) billion and $(0.4) billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, (ii) net realized gains (losses) on investments (asset management and strategic holdings) of $106.5 million and $70.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, (iii) change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments (asset management and strategic holdings) of $(0.4) billion and $1.0 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, (iv) capital allocation-based income (loss) (asset management and strategic holdings) of $0.8 billion and $1.2 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, (v) net investment and policy liability- related gains (losses) (insurance) of $(0.4) billion and $(1.7) billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and (vi) interest credited to policyholder account balances (net of policy fees) (insurance) of $1.4 billion and $1.2 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Investment funds are investment companies under GAAP and reflect their investments and other financial instruments at fair value. Net Cash Provided (Used) by Investing Activities Our net cash provided (used) by investing activities was $2.3 billion and $(3.1) billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our investing activities primarily included: (i) investments purchased (insurance), net of proceeds from investments (insurance), of $2.4 billion and $(3.1) billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, (ii) acquisitions, net of cash acquired, of $(37.9) million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, and (iii) the purchase of fixed assets of $(27.4) million and $(20.8) million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Net Cash Provided (Used) by Financing Activities Our net cash provided (used) by financing activities was $(1.7) billion and $3.6 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our financing activities primarily included: (i) contributions from, net of distributions to, our noncontrolling and redeemable noncontrolling interests of $(0.4) billion and $0.2 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, (ii) proceeds received, net of repayment of debt obligations, of $0.7 billion and $(0.5) billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, (iii) proceeds from the issuance of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (net of issuance cost) of $2.5 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2025, (iv) additions to, net of withdrawals from, contractholder deposit funds (insurance) of $(1.6) billion and $1.5 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, (v) common stock dividends of $(164.8) million and $(155.4) million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and (vi) Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock Dividends of $(40.4) million during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Analysis of Segment Operating Results The following is a discussion of the results of our business on a segment basis for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. You should read this discussion in conjunction with the information included under "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures" and the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. See "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report and "—Business Environment" in this report for more information about factors that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results, and valuations. Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results The following tables set forth information regarding KKR's asset management segment operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Management Fees | $1,192,504 | $917,334 | $275,170 | | Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net | 252,709 | 261,509 | (8,800) | | Fee Related Performance Revenues | 23,762 | 21,277 | 2,485 | | Fee Related Compensation | (257,195) | (210,021) | (47,174) | | Other Operating Expenses | (195,405) | (167,496) | (27,909) | | Fee Related Earnings | 1,016,375 | 822,603 | 193,772 | | Realized Performance Income | 755,964 | 347,920 | 408,044 | | Realized Performance Income Compensation | (558,773) | (259,931) | (298,842) | | Realized Investment Income | 121,901 | 217,957 | (96,056) | | Realized Investment Income Compensation | (18,285) | (32,694) | 14,409 | | Asset Management Segment Earnings | $1,317,182 | $1,095,855 | $221,327 | Management Fees The following table presents management fees by business line: | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Management Fees | | | | | Private Equity | $459,885 | $334,792 | $125,093 | | Real Assets | 383,489 | 280,578 | 102,911 | | Credit and Liquid Strategies | 349,130 | 301,964 | 47,166 | | Total Management Fees | $1,192,504 | $917,334 | $275,170 | The increase in Private Equity management fees during the three months ended March 31, 2026, was primarily attributable to (i) management fees commencing at North America Fund XIV in the second quarter of 2025, and (ii) management fees earned on new capital raised over the past twelve months at our private equity K-Series vehicles, net of certain revenue sharing arrangements. The increase was partially offset by (i) a decrease in management fees earned from North America Fund XIII as a result of entering its post-investment period in the second quarter of 2025, and now paying fees based on invested capital rather than committed capital and at a lower fee rate, and (ii) a decrease in management fees earned from Americas XII due to a step-down in the management fee rate in the third quarter of 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, approximately $30.1 million of management fees were earned on new capital raised that were retroactive to the start of the relevant fund’s investment period. The increase in Real Assets management fees during the three months ended March 31, 2026, was primarily attributable to (i) management fees earned on new capital raised over the past twelve months at Global Infrastructure Investors V and at our infrastructure K-Series vehicles, net of certain revenue sharing arrangements, and (ii) a higher level of management fees earned from Global Atlantic primarily due to the growth in assets from inflows. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, approximately $40.6 million of management fees were earned on new capital raised that is retroactive to the start of the relevant fund's investment period. The increase in Credit and Liquid Strategies management fees during the three months ended March 31, 2026, was primarily attributable to (i) an increase in capital invested at certain alternative credit strategy accounts, which resulted in an increase in its fee base, and (ii) a higher level of management fees earned from CLOs from new issuances in both the United States and Europe during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net The following table presents transaction and monitoring fees, net by business line: | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net | | | | | Private Equity | $18,636 | $18,913 | $(277) | | Real Assets | 7,667 | 9,855 | (2,188) | | Credit and Liquid Strategies | 2,759 | 3,397 | (638) | | Capital Markets | 223,647 | 229,344 | (5,697) | | Total Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net | $252,709 | $261,509 | $(8,800) | Our Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines earn transaction and monitoring fees from portfolio companies, and under the terms of the management agreements with certain of our investment funds, we are required to share all or a portion of such fees with our fund investors. For most of our investment funds, transaction and monitoring fees are credited against fund management fees up to 100% of the amount of the transaction and monitoring fees attributable to that investment fund, which results in a decrease of our monitoring and transaction fees. Our Capital Markets business line earns transaction fees, which are generally not shared with fund investors. The decrease in transaction and monitoring fees, net is primarily due to a lower level of transaction fees earned in our Capital Markets business line. The decrease in capital markets transaction fees was primarily due to a decrease in the number of capital markets transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Overall, we completed 91 capital markets transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2026, of which 7 represented equity offerings and 84 represented debt offerings, as compared to 111 transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2025, of which 12 represented equity offerings and 99 represented debt offerings. We earn fees in connection with underwriting, syndication, and other capital markets services. While each of the capital markets transactions that we undertake in this business line is separately negotiated, our fee rates are generally higher with respect to underwriting or syndicating equity offerings than with respect to debt offerings, and the amount of fees that we earn for similar transactions generally correlates with overall transaction sizes. Our capital markets fees are generated in connection with activity involving our Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines as well as from third-party companies. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, approximately 14% of our transaction fees in our Capital Markets business line were earned from unaffiliated third parties as compared to approximately 19% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Our transaction fees are comprised of fees earned from North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, approximately 48% of our transaction fees were generated outside of North America as compared to approximately 46% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Our Capital Markets business line is dependent on the overall capital markets environment, which is influenced by, among other things, equity prices, credit spreads, and volatility. Our Capital Markets business line does not generate monitoring fees. Fee Related Performance Revenues The following table presents fee related performance revenues by business line: | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Fee Related Performance Revenues | | | | | Private Equity | $846 | $— | $846 | | Real Assets | 4,980 | 1,765 | 3,215 | | Credit and Liquid Strategies | 17,936 | 19,512 | (1,576) | | Total Fee Related Performance Revenues | $23,762 | $21,277 | $2,485 | Fee related performance revenues represent performance fees that are (i) expected to be received from our investment funds, investment vehicles and accounts on a more recurring basis and (ii) not dependent on a realization event involving investments held by the investment fund, vehicle or account. The increase in fee related performance revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to performance revenues being earned from our Diversified Core Infrastructure Fund in our Real Assets business line in the current period. Fee Related Compensation The increase in fee related compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of compensation recorded in connection with the higher level of fee related revenues. Other Operating Expenses The increase in other operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of occupancy, information technology, and general and administrative costs. Fee Related Earnings The increase in fee related earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to (i) a higher level of management fees across our Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines and (ii) a higher level of fee related performance revenues primarily earned in our Real Assets business line, partially offset by (i) a higher level of fee related compensation and other operating expenses and (ii) a lower level of transaction fees earned in our Capital Markets business line, as described above. Realized Performance Income The following table presents realized performance income by business line: | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Realized Performance Income | | | | | Private Equity | $693,643 | $334,060 | $359,583 | | Real Assets | 45,173 | 9,367 | 35,806 | | Credit and Liquid Strategies | 17,148 | 4,493 | 12,655 | | Total Realized Performance Income | $755,964 | $347,920 | $408,044 | | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Private Equity | | | | | Americas Fund XII | $241,140 | $— | $241,140 | | Asian Fund III | 133,327 | — | 133,327 | | Core Investment Vehicles | 130,169 | 187,886 | (57,717) | | North America Fund XI | 89,421 | — | 89,421 | | European Fund V | — | 89,459 | (89,459) | | Global Impact Fund | — | 13,215 | (13,215) | | Other | 99,586 | 43,500 | 56,086 | | Total Realized Performance Income | $693,643 | $334,060 | $359,583 | Realized performance income in our Private Equity business line for the three months ended March 31, 2026 consisted primarily of (i) realized proceeds from the sale of our investments in Novaria Group (industrial sector) and BrightSpring Health Services (NASDAQ: BTSG) held by Americas Fund XII, J.B. Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals Limited (healthcare sector) held by Asian Fund III, and Crosby Group (manufacturing sector) held by North America Fund XI and (ii) performance income from our core private equity vehicles.

Realized performance income in our Real Assets business line for the three months ended March 31, 2025 consisted primarily of realized proceeds from the sale of our investment in Q-Park N.V. (infrastructure: transportation sector) held by Global Infrastructure Investors II. | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Credit and Liquid Strategies | | | | | Lending Partners III | $2,236 | $— | $2,236 | | Alternative Credit Vehicles | — | 1,159 | (1,159) | | Other | 14,912 | 3,334 | 11,578 | | Total Realized Performance Income | $17,148 | $4,493 | $12,655 | Realized performance income in our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line for the three months ended March 31, 2026 consisted primarily of (i) performance fees earned from Marshall Wace and (ii) realized proceeds at Lending Partners III. Realized performance income in our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line for the three months ended March 31, 2025 consisted primarily of performance fees earned from Marshall Wace and our sub-advisory agreement with a UK investment fund manager. Realized Performance Income Compensation The increase in realized performance income compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of compensation recorded in connection with the higher level of realized performance income. Realized Investment Income The following table presents realized investment income from our Principal Activities business line: | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Total Realized Investment Income | $121,901 | $217,957 | $(96,056) | The decrease in realized investment income is primarily due to a lower level of interest income, dividends, and net realized gains. The amount of realized investment income depends on the transaction activity of our funds and Asset Management segment balance sheet, which can vary from period to period. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, realized investment income was primarily comprised of realized gains primarily from the sale of our investments in J.B. Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals Limited, BrightSpring Health Services, and Crosby Group. Partially offsetting the realized gains were realized losses, the most significant of which were realized losses from the sale of various revolving credit facilities by the Capital Markets business line. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, realized investment income was primarily comprised of (i) realized gains from the sale of our investments in BridgeBio Inc. (NASDAQ: BBIO), and Citation Topco Limited, (ii) realized gains from the settlement of foreign exchange forward contracts, and (iii) interest income primarily from our investments in CLOs. Partially offsetting these realized gains were realized losses, the most significant of which were (i) a realized loss related to a structured multi-asset investment vehicle and (ii) realized losses from the sale of various revolving credit facilities. Realized investment income includes the net income (loss) from KKR Capstone. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, total fees attributable to KKR Capstone were $26.8 million and total expenses attributable to KKR Capstone were $26.4 million. For KKR Capstone-related adjustments in reconciling segment revenues and expenses to GAAP revenues and expenses see Note 21 “Segment Reporting” in the accompanying financial statements. As of the date of this filing, we have transactions that are pending or that have closed after March 31, 2026 that are expected to result in realized performance income and realized investment income of at least $1.2 billion, which is expected to be realized in the remainder of 2026. The realizations are expected to consist of approximately 80% realized performance income and approximately 20% realized investment income. See “—Liquidity—Sources of Liquidity” for additional information. Some of these transactions are not complete, and are subject to the satisfaction of closing conditions, including regulatory approvals; therefore, there can be no assurance if or when such transactions will be completed. In addition, we may realize gains or losses based on transactions or other events that occur after the date of filing this report, which could impact, positively or negatively, the total amount of our realized performance income and realized investment income. Therefore, no assurance can be given for what our actual realized performance income and realized investment income in the remainder of 2026 or future periods will be. Realized Investment Income Compensation The decrease in realized investment income compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period is primarily due to a lower level of compensation recorded in connection with the lower level of realized investment income. Operating and Capital Metrics See also “Fund Performance Metrics” for more information about our investment funds, vehicles and accounts across our Private Equity, Real Assets and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines, including investment performance, capital commitments, uncalled capital commitments, and invested capital of each.

The increase was primarily attributable to (i) new capital raised from North America Fund XIV and our private equity K- Series vehicles, and (ii) appreciation in investment value primarily from Global Impact Fund II, Asian Fund IV and our private equity K-Series vehicles. Partially offsetting the increases were distributions to fund investors primarily as a result of realized proceeds, most notably from Americas Fund XII, North America Fund XI, and Asian Fund III. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the value of our traditional private equity investment portfolio appreciated by 1%. This was comprised of a 6% increase in share prices of publicly held investments and no change in value of our privately held investments. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the value of our growth equity investment portfolio (including our global impact strategy) increased 16%, and the value of our core private equity investment portfolio decreased 3%.

The increase was primarily attributable to (i) new capital raised in our infrastructure K-Series vehicles, Global Infrastructure Investors V, and Diversified Core Infrastructure Fund and, to a lesser extent, (ii) appreciation in investment value from Global Infrastructure Investors III and Energy and Growth Income Fund II. Partially offsetting the increase were (i) payments to Global Atlantic policyholders, and (ii) distributions to fund investors as a result of realized proceeds, most notably from one of our infrastructure separately managed accounts with a public pension plan and Real Estate Partners Americas II. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the value of our infrastructure investment portfolio appreciated 2% and the value of our opportunistic real estate equity investment portfolio depreciated by 1%.

The increase was primarily attributable to (i) new capital raised from Global Atlantic inflows and various alternative credit and leveraged credit investment funds, (ii) the issuance of CLOs, and, to a lesser extent, (iii) investment value appreciation on assets managed by Marshall Wace. Partially offsetting the increase were (i) payments to Global Atlantic policyholders, (ii) distributions to, and redemptions from, fund investors at certain alternative and leveraged credit funds, and (iii) redemptions at Marshall Wace. Fee Paying Assets Under Management Private Equity The following table reflects the changes in the FPAUM of our Private Equity business line from December 31, 2025 to March 31, 2026: _($ in millions)_ | | | | --- | --- | | December 31, 2025 | $151,239 | | New Capital Raised | 5,561 | | Distributions and Other | (2,848) | | Redemptions | (74) | | Net Changes in Fee Base of Certain Funds | (438) | | Change in Value | 252 | | March 31, 2026 | $153,692 | FPAUM of our Private Equity business line was $153.7 billion at March 31, 2026, an increase of $2.5 billion, compared to $151.2 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised from North America Fund XIV and our private equity K-Series vehicles. Partially offsetting the increase were distributions to fund investors primarily as a result of (i) realized proceeds, most notably from Asian Fund III, (ii) fees waived at European Fund IV in exchange for extending the term of the fund and (iii) a change in fee base for Next Generation Technology Growth Fund III as a result of the fund entering its post-investment period in the first quarter of 2026, during which we earn fees on invested capital rather than committed capital. Uncalled capital commitments from private equity funds and other investment vehicles from which KKR is currently not earning management fees amounted to approximately $17.7 billion at March 31, 2026, which includes capital commitments reserved for follow-on investments for funds that have completed their investment periods. This capital will generally begin to earn management fees upon deployment of the capital or upon the commencement of the fund's investment period. The average annual management fee rate associated with this capital is approximately 0.97%. The date on which we begin to earn fees (as specified above) is not guaranteed to occur and may not occur for an extended period of time. If and when such management fees are earned, a portion of existing FPAUM may cease paying fees or pay lower fees, thus offsetting a portion of any new management fees earned. Real Assets The following table reflects the changes in the FPAUM of our Real Assets business line from December 31, 2025 to March 31, 2026: _($ in millions)_ | | | | --- | --- | | December 31, 2025 | $163,451 | | New Capital Raised | 7,959 | | Distributions and Other | (2,136) | | Redemptions | (142) | | Change in Value | (311) | | March 31, 2026 | $168,821 | FPAUM of our Real Assets business line was $168.8 billion at March 31, 2026, an increase of $5.3 billion, compared to $163.5 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised from our infrastructure K-Series vehicles, Global Infrastructure Investors V, and Global Atlantic inflows invested in infrastructure. Partially offsetting the increase were (i) payments to Global Atlantic policyholders, and (ii) distributions to fund investors as a result of realized proceeds, most notably from one of our infrastructure separately managed accounts with a public pension plan and Diversified Core Infrastructure Fund. Uncalled capital commitments from real assets investment funds and other investment vehicles from which KKR is currently not earning management fees amounted to approximately $15.0 billion at March 31, 2026, which includes capital commitments reserved for follow-on investments for funds that have completed their investment periods. This capital will generally begin to earn management fees upon deployment of the capital or upon the commencement of the fund's investment period. The average annual management fee rate associated with this capital is approximately 1.21%. The date on which we begin to earn fees (as specified above) is not guaranteed to occur and may not occur for an extended period of time. If and when such management fees are earned, a portion of existing FPAUM may cease paying fees or pay lower fees, thus offsetting a portion of any new management fees earned. Credit and Liquid Strategies The following table reflects the changes in the FPAUM of our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line from December 31, 2025 to March 31, 2026: _($ in millions)_ | | | | --- | --- | | December 31, 2025 | $289,454 | | New Capital Raised | 12,518 | | Distributions and Other | (8,438) | | Redemptions | (2,855) | | Change in Value | 1,653 | | March 31, 2026 | $292,332 | FPAUM of our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line was $292.3 billion at March 31, 2026, an increase of $2.8 billion, compared to $289.5 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to (i) new capital raised from Global Atlantic inflows and deployment at various alternative credit and leveraged credit investment funds, (ii) the issuance of CLOs, and, to a lesser extent, (iii) investment value appreciation on assets managed by Marshall Wace. Partially offsetting the increase were (i) payments to Global Atlantic policyholders, (ii) distributions to, and redemptions from, fund investors at certain alternative and leveraged credit funds, and (iii) redemptions at Marshall Wace. Uncalled capital commitments from credit investment funds from which KKR is currently not earning management fees amounted to approximately $31.3 billion at March 31, 2026, which includes capital commitments reserved for follow-on investments for funds that have completed their investment periods. This capital will generally begin to earn management fees upon deployment of the capital or upon the commencement of the fund's investment period. The average annual management fee rate associated with this capital is approximately 0.53%. The date on which we begin to earn fees is not guaranteed to occur and may not occur for an extended period of time. If and when such management fees are earned, a portion of existing FPAUM may cease paying fees or pay lower fees, thus offsetting a portion of any new management fees earned. See "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report and "—Business Environment" for more information about the factors that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations. Uncalled Commitments Private Equity As of March 31, 2026, our Private Equity business line had $53.3 billion of remaining uncalled commitments that could be called for investments in new transactions as compared to $52.3 billion as of December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital commitments from fund investors largely offset by capital called from fund investors to make investments during the period. Real Assets As of March 31, 2026, our Real Assets business line had $37.4 billion of remaining uncalled commitments that could be called for investments in new transactions as compared to $35.0 billion as of December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital commitments from fund investors, which was partially offset by capital called from fund investors to make investments during the period. Credit and Liquid Strategies As of March 31, 2026, our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line had $34.1 billion of remaining uncalled commitments that could be called for investments in new transactions as compared to $31.1 billion as of December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital commitments from fund investors, which was partially offset by capital called from fund investors to make investments during the period. Capital Invested Private Equity For the three months ended March 31, 2026, $2.2 billion of capital was invested by our Private Equity business line, as compared to $4.3 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was driven primarily by a $1.3 billion decrease in capital invested in our core private equity strategy and $0.6 billion decrease in capital invested in our traditional private equity strategy. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, 27% of capital deployed in private equity was in transactions in North America, 27% was in Europe, and 46% was in the Asia-Pacific region. The number of large private equity investments made in any quarterly or year-to-date period is volatile and, consequently, a significant amount of capital invested in one period or a few periods may not be indicative of a similar level of capital deployment in future periods. Real Assets For the three months ended March 31, 2026, $8.3 billion of capital was invested by our Real Assets business line, as compared to $5.6 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by a $2.7 billion increase in capital invested in our infrastructure strategy and $0.7 billion increase in capital invested in our real estate strategy, partially offset by a $0.6 billion decrease in capital invested in our energy strategy. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, 57% of capital deployed in real assets was in transactions in North America, 25% was in Europe, and 18% was in the Asia-Pacific region. The number of large real assets investments made in any quarterly or year-to-date period is volatile and, consequently, a significant amount of capital invested in one period or a few periods may not be indicative of a similar level of capital deployment in future periods. Credit and Liquid Strategies For the three months ended March 31, 2026, $11.2 billion of capital was invested by our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line, as compared to $9.1 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by a higher level of capital deployed across our alternative credit strategies, most notably asset-based finance. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, 88% of capital deployed was in transactions in North America, 10% was in Europe, and 2% was in the Asia-Pacific region. Analysis of Insurance Segment Operating Results The following table sets forth information regarding KKR's insurance segment operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Effective beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the information regularly provided to management for the Insurance Segment was modified to reclassify certain operating expenses from “General, Administrative and Other” to “Net Cost of Insurance.” Prior period segment information has been recast to conform to the current period presentation. This reclassification had no impact on Insurance Operating Earnings. | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Net Investment Income | $1,900,612 | $1,729,343 | $171,269 | | Net Cost of Insurance | (1,453,334) | (1,287,983) | (165,351) | | General, Administrative and Other | (186,948) | (182,588) | (4,360) | | Insurance Operating Earnings | $260,330 | $258,772 | $1,558 | Net Investment Income Net investment income increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to (i) increased average assets under management from the cumulative impact of new business volume growth over the preceding twelve months, and (ii) higher average portfolio yields due to repositioning the portfolio into higher yielding fixed maturity debt securities, and investment in alternative asset classes, such as real assets. Net Cost of Insurance Net cost of insurance increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to (i) growth in reserves in the institutional and individual market channels as a result of the cumulative impact of new business volumes in the preceding twelve months, and (ii) higher average funding costs due to higher crediting rates and the routine run-off of older business originated in a lower interest rate environment. General, Administrative and Other Expenses General, administrative and other expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to (i) higher interest expense primarily reflecting higher levels of borrowing, and (ii) an increase in professional and technology-related expenses. Insurance Operating Earnings Insurance operating earnings increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to an increase in net investment income due to an increase in average assets under management and higher portfolio yields, partially offset by an increase in net cost of insurance due to the cumulative impact of new business volume growth and higher crediting rates. Analysis of Strategic Holdings Segment Operating Results The following table sets forth information regarding KKR's strategic holdings segment operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025: | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Dividends, Net | $48,296 | $31,486 | $16,810 | | Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings | 48,296 | 31,486 | 16,810 | | Net Realized Investment Income | — | — | — | | Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings | $48,296 | $31,486 | $16,810 | Dividends, Net For the three months ended March 31, 2026, dividends, net were comprised of dividend income from USI Insurance Services LLC and Viridor Limited (energy and energy transition sector). For the three months ended March 31, 2025, dividends, net were comprised of dividend income from Atlantic Aviation FBO Inc. and ERM Worldwide Group Limited (services sector). For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the contractual management fee charged by our Asset Management segment was $10.9 million and for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the management fee was $7.9 million. Net Realized Investment Income For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 there was no net realized investment income earned in our Strategic Holdings segment. Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings Strategic Holdings segment earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was higher compared to the prior period due to a higher level of dividends. Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures The following is a discussion of our Non-GAAP performance measures for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. | ($ in thousands) | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2026 | Three Months Ended / March 31, 2025 | Three Months Ended / Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Fee Related Earnings | $1,016,375 | $822,603 | $193,772 | | Insurance Operating Earnings | 260,330 | 258,772 | 1,558 | | Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings | 48,296 | 31,486 | 16,810 | | Total Operating Earnings | 1,325,001 | 1,112,861 | 212,140 | | Net Realized Performance Income | 197,191 | 87,989 | 109,202 | | Net Realized Investment Income | 103,616 | 185,263 | (81,647) | | Total Investing Earnings | 300,807 | 273,252 | 27,555 | | Total Segment Earnings | 1,625,808 | 1,386,113 | 239,695 | | Interest Expense, Net and Other | (128,304) | (91,470) | (36,834) | | Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings | (247,965) | (260,655) | 12,690 | | Adjusted Net Income | $1,249,539 | $1,033,988 | $215,551 | Total Operating Earnings The increase in total operating earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of fee related earnings and to a lesser extent insurance operating earnings and strategic holdings operating earnings. For a discussion of fee related earnings, insurance operating earnings, and strategic holdings operating earnings, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results", "—Analysis of Insurance Segment Operating Results", and "—Analysis of Strategic Holdings Segment Operating Results." Total Investing Earnings The increase in total investing earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of net realized performance income, offset by a lower level of net realized investment income. For a discussion of net realized performance income and net realized investment income, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results" and "—Analysis of Strategic Holdings Segment Operating Results." Total Segment Earnings The increase in total segment earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to an increase in total operating earnings and to a lesser extent total investing earnings. Adjusted Net Income The increase in adjusted net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of total segment earnings, partially offset by an increase in interest expense, net and other. Interest Expense, Net and Other The increase in interest expense, net and other for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to dividends paid on the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock that was issued in March 2025. Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings The decrease in income taxes on adjusted earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of certain income tax deductions and credits.  For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the amount of the tax benefit from equity-based compensation included in income taxes on adjusted earnings was $21.4 million and $30.8 million, respectively. The inclusion of the tax benefit from equity-based compensation in Adjusted Net Income had the effect of increasing this measure by 2% and 3% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Fund Performance Metrics Private Equity The table below presents information as of March 31, 2026, relating to our current private equity and other investment vehicles reported in our Private Equity business line for which we have the ability to earn carried interest. This data does not reflect acquisitions or disposals of investments, changes in investment values, or distributions occurring after March 31, 2026. | Line item | Investment Period / Start Date(1) | Investment Period / End Date (2) | Amount ($ in millions) / Commitment (3) | Amount ($ in millions) / Uncalled Commitments | Amount ($ in millions) / Invested | Amount ($ in millions) / Realized | Amount ($ in millions) / Remaining Cost (4) | Amount ($ in millions) / Remaining Fair Value | Amount ($ in millions) / Gross Accrued Carried Interest | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Private Equity Business Line | | | | | | | | | | | North America Fund XIV | 4/2025 | 4/2031 | $21,893 | $21,893 | $— | $— | $— | $— | $— | | North America Fund XIII | 8/2021 | 4/2025 | 18,400 | 1,432 | 17,271 | 566 | 16,786 | 23,446 | 1,062 | | Americas Fund XII | 5/2017 | 5/2021 | 13,500 | 1,386 | 12,754 | 18,506 | 7,873 | 16,320 | 1,442 | | North America Fund XI | 11/2012 | 1/2017 | 8,718 | 48 | 10,203 | 25,152 | 1,172 | 1,707 | 190 | | 2006 Fund (5) | 9/2006 | 9/2012 | 17,642 | — | 17,309 | 37,423 | — | — | — | | Millennium Fund (5) | 12/2002 | 12/2008 | 6,000 | — | 6,000 | 14,129 | — | — | — | | Ascendant Fund | 6/2022 | 6/2028 | 4,328 | 2,194 | 2,134 | — | 2,134 | 2,511 | 32 | | European Fund VI | 6/2022 | 6/2028 | 7,521 | 2,537 | 4,984 | — | 3,888 | 5,749 | — | | European Fund V | 7/2019 | 2/2022 | 6,379 | 505 | 5,997 | 2,909 | 4,552 | 6,640 | 390 | | European Fund IV | 2/2015 | 3/2019 | 3,512 | 16 | 3,648 | 5,726 | 1,621 | 2,187 | 96 | | European Fund III (5) | 3/2008 | 3/2014 | 5,506 | — | 5,360 | 10,647 | — | — | — | | European Fund II (5) | 11/2005 | 10/2008 | 5,751 | — | 5,751 | 8,533 | — | — | — | | Asian Fund IV | 7/2020 | 7/2026 | 14,735 | 3,857 | 12,061 | 4,229 | 11,108 | 16,204 | 954 | | Asian Fund III | 8/2017 | 7/2020 | 9,000 | 1,267 | 8,274 | 11,601 | 4,628 | 8,680 | 884 | | Asian Fund II | 10/2013 | 3/2017 | 5,825 | — | 7,507 | 6,723 | 1,270 | 744 | — | | Asian Fund (5) | 7/2007 | 4/2013 | 3,983 | — | 3,974 | 8,728 | — | — | — | | Next Generation Technology Growth Fund III | 11/2022 | 3/2026 | 2,740 | 734 | 2,006 | — | 2,006 | 2,302 | — | | Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II | 12/2019 | 5/2022 | 2,088 | 53 | 2,270 | 1,846 | 1,610 | 2,390 | 137 | | Next Generation Technology Growth Fund | 3/2016 | 12/2019 | 659 | 2 | 671 | 1,314 | 241 | 871 | 66 | | Health Care Strategic Growth Fund II | 5/2021 | 5/2027 | 3,789 | 1,421 | 2,368 | 103 | 2,245 | 3,556 | 177 | | Health Care Strategic Growth Fund | 12/2016 | 4/2021 | 1,331 | 86 | 1,409 | 1,085 | 987 | 1,674 | 130 | | Global Impact Fund II | 6/2022 | 6/2028 | 2,711 | 1,374 | 1,337 | — | 986 | 3,237 | 340 | | Global Impact Fund | 2/2019 | 3/2022 | 1,242 | 187 | 1,238 | 646 | 975 | 1,450 | 92 | | Co-Investment Vehicles and Other | Various | Various | 43,072 | 3,430 | 40,360 | 18,205 | 30,328 | 37,711 | 1,844 | | Core Investors II | 8/2022 | 8/2027 | 11,814 | 7,957 | 3,858 | 122 | 3,858 | 4,495 | (22) | | Core Investors I | 2/2018 | 8/2022 | 8,500 | 23 | 10,501 | 2,683 | 8,767 | 17,525 | (21) | | Other Core Vehicles | Various | Various | 7,625 | 1,175 | 6,526 | 2,313 | 5,787 | 9,356 | 11 | | Unallocated Commitments (6) | N/A | N/A | 1,684 | 1,684 | — | — | — | — | — | | Total Private Equity | | | $239,948 | $53,261 | $195,771 | $183,189 | $112,822 | $168,755 | $7,804 | (1) The start date represents the start of the fund's investment period as defined in the fund's governing documents and may or may not be the same as the date upon which management fees begin to accrue. (2) The end date represents the end of the fund's investment period as defined in the fund's governing documents and is generally not the date upon which management fees cease to accrue. For funds that initially charge management fees on the basis of committed capital, the end date is generally the date on or after which the management fees begin to be calculated instead on the basis of invested capital and may, for certain funds, begin to be calculated using a lower rate. (3) The commitment represents the aggregate capital commitments to the fund, including capital commitments by third-party fund investors and the general partner. Foreign currency commitments have been converted into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate that prevailed on March 31, 2026. (4) The remaining cost represents the initial investment of the general partner and limited partners, reduced for returns of capital. (5) The "Invested" and "Realized" columns do not include the amounts of any realized investments that restored the unused capital commitments of the fund investors, if any.

(Guernsey) L.P. (formerly known as KKR Private Equity Investors, L.P.) on October 1, 2009. (2) Where commitments are not U.S. dollar-denominated, such amounts have been converted into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate prevailing on March 31, 2026. (3) The gross IRR, net IRR and gross multiple of invested capital are calculated for our investment funds that made their first investment at least 24 months prior to March 31, 2026. We therefore have not calculated gross IRRs, net IRRs and gross multiples of invested capital with respect to these funds. (4) An investment is considered realized when it has been disposed of or has otherwise generated disposition proceeds or current income that has been distributed by the relevant fund. (5) IRRs measure the aggregate annual compounded returns generated by a fund's investments over a holding period. Net IRRs are calculated after giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees and organizational expenses. Gross IRRs are calculated before giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees and organizational expenses. The gross multiples of invested capital measure the aggregate value generated by a fund's investments in absolute terms. Each multiple of invested capital is calculated by adding together the total realized and unrealized values of a fund's investments and dividing by the total amount of capital invested by the fund. Such amounts do not give effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest or the payment of any applicable management fees or organizational expenses. KKR's Private Equity and Real Assets funds may utilize third-party financing facilities to provide liquidity to such funds. The above net and gross IRRs are calculated from the time capital contributions are due from fund investors to the time fund investors receive a related distribution from the fund, and the use of such financing facilities generally decreases the amount of time that would otherwise be used to calculate IRRs, which tends to increase IRRs when fair value grows over time and decrease IRRs when fair value decreases over time.

Past performance is no guarantee of any future result. | Leveraged Credit Strategy | Inception Date | Gross Returns | Net Returns | Benchmark (1) | Benchmark Gross Returns | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Multi-Asset Credit Composite | Jul 2008 | 7.04% | 6.35% | 50% S&P/LSTA Loan Index, 50% BoAML HY Master II Index (2) | 5.77% | | Opportunistic Credit (3) | May 2008 | 10.17% | 8.69% | 50% S&P/LSTA Loan Index, 50% BoAML HY Master II Index (3) | 5.94% | | Bank Loans | Apr 2011 | 5.77% | 5.20% | S&P/LSTA Loan Index (4) | 4.81% | | High-Yield | Apr 2011 | 6.21% | 5.63% | BoAML HY Master II Index (5) | 5.60% | | European Leveraged Loans (6) | Sep 2009 | 4.81% | 4.29% | CS Inst West European Leveraged Loan Index (7) | 3.93% | | European Credit Opportunities (6) | Sept 2007 | 6.84% | 5.61% | S&P European Leveraged Loans (All Loans) (8) | 4.50% | (1) The benchmarks referred to herein include the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (the "S&P/LSTA Loan Index"), S&P/LSTA U.S. B/BB Ratings Loan Index (the "S&P/LSTA BB-B Loan Index"), the Bank of America Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index (the "BoAML HY Master II Index"), the BofA Merrill Lynch BB-B US High Yield Index (the "BoAML HY BB-B Constrained"), the Credit Suisse Institutional Western European Leveraged Loan Index (the "CS Inst West European Leveraged Loan Index"), and S&P European Leveraged Loans (All Loans). The S&P/LSTA Loan Index is a daily tradable index for the U.S. loan market that seeks to mirror the market-weighted performance of the largest institutional loans that meet certain criteria. The BoAML HY Master II Index is an index for high-yield corporate bonds. It is designed to measure the broad high-yield market, including lower-rated securities. The CS Inst West European Leveraged Loan Index contains only institutional loan facilities priced above 90, excluding TL and TLa facilities and loans rated CC, C or are in default. The S&P European Leveraged Loan Index reflects the market-weighted performance of institutional leveraged loan portfolios investing in European credits. While the returns of our leveraged credit strategies reflect the reinvestment of income and dividends, none of the indices presented in the chart above reflect such reinvestment, which has the effect of increasing the reported relative performance of these strategies as compared to the indices. Furthermore, these indices are not subject to management fees, incentive allocations, or expenses. (2) Performance is based on a blended composite of Bank Loans, High Yield, and Structured Credit strategy accounts. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the Multi-Asset Credit Composite strategy is based on 65% S&P/LSTA Loan Index and 35% BoAML HY Master II Index to May 2022, and 50% S&P/LSTA Loan Index, 50% BoAML HY Master II Index, from June 2022. (3) The Opportunistic Credit strategy invests in high-yield securities and corporate loans with no preset allocation. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the Opportunistic Credit strategy presented herein is based on 50% S&P/LSTA Loan Index and 50% BoAML HY Master II Index. Funds within this strategy may utilize third-party financing facilities to enhance investment returns. In cases where financing facilities are used, the amounts drawn on the facility are deducted from the assets of the fund in the calculation of net asset value, which tends to increase returns when net asset value grows over time and decrease returns when net asset value decreases over time. (4) Performance is based on a composite of portfolios that primarily invest in leveraged loans. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the Bank Loans strategy is based on the S&P/LSTA Loan Index. (5) Performance is based on a composite of portfolios that primarily invest in high-yield securities. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the High Yield strategy is based on the BoAML HY Master II Index. (6) The returns presented are calculated based on local currency. (7) Performance is based on a composite of portfolios that primarily invest in higher quality leveraged loans. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the European Leveraged Loans strategy is based on the CS Inst West European Leveraged Loan Index. (8) Performance is based on a composite of portfolios that primarily invest in European institutional leveraged loans. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the European Credit Opportunities strategy is based on the S&P European Leveraged Loans (All Loans) Index.

(2) These credit funds utilize third-party financing facilities to provide liquidity to such funds, and in such event IRRs are calculated from the time capital contributions are due from fund investors to the time fund investors receive a related distribution from the fund. The use of such financing facilities generally decreases the amount of invested capital that would otherwise be used to calculate IRRs, which tends to increase IRRs when fair value grows over time and decrease IRRs when fair value decreases over time. IRRs measure the aggregate annual compounded returns generated by a fund's investments over a holding period and are calculated taking into account recycled capital. Net IRRs presented are calculated after giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees and organizational expenses. Gross IRRs are calculated before giving effect to the allocation of carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees and organizational expenses. (3) The multiples of invested capital measure the aggregate value generated by a fund's investments in absolute terms. Each multiple of invested capital is calculated by adding together the total realized and unrealized values of a fund's investments and dividing by the total amount of capital invested by the investors. The use of financing facilities generally decreases the amount of invested capital that would otherwise be used to calculate multiples of invested capital, which tends to increase multiples when fair value grows over time and decrease multiples when fair value decreases over time. Such amounts do not give effect to the allocation of any realized and unrealized returns on a fund's investments to the fund's general partner pursuant to a carried interest or the payment of any applicable management fees and are calculated without taking into account recycled capital. For additional information regarding impact of market conditions on the value and performance of our investments, see "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Difficult market and economic conditions can, and periodically do, materially and adversely affect KKR." and "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Investment Activities—Future results of our investments may be different than, and may not achieve the levels of, any of our historical returns" in our Annual Report. Segment Balance Sheet Measures Asset Management Segment Investment Portfolio To the extent our investments are realized at values above or below their cost in future periods, adjusted net income would be positively or negatively affected by the amount of any such gain or loss, respectively, during the period in which the realization event occurs. Our investments in the Asset Management segment by asset class as of March 31, 2026 are as follows: _As of March 31, 2026 · ($ in thousands)_ | Asset Management Segment Investments (1) | Cost | Fair Value | Fair Value as a Percentage of Total Asset Management Investments | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Traditional Private Equity | $1,474,950 | $3,243,448 | 41% | | Growth Equity | 269,737 | 1,019,211 | 13% | | Private Equity Total | 1,744,687 | 4,262,659 | 54% | | Real Estate | 1,488,172 | 1,243,305 | 16% | | Infrastructure | 289,734 | 547,007 | 7% | | Energy | 31,946 | 343,207 | 4% | | Real Assets Total | 1,809,852 | 2,133,519 | 27% | | Alternative Credit | 498,078 | 582,830 | 7% | | Leveraged Credit | 479,349 | 390,088 | 5% | | Credit Total | 977,427 | 972,918 | 12% | | Other | 692,495 | 629,967 | 7% | | Total Asset Management Segment Investments | $5,224,461 | $7,999,063 | 100% | (1) Investments is a term used solely for purposes of financial presentation of a portion of KKR's balance sheet and includes majority ownership of subsidiaries that operate KKR's asset management and insurance businesses, including the general partner interests of KKR's investment funds. Investments presented are principally the assets measured at fair value that are held by KKR's asset management segment, which, among other things, does not include the underlying investments held by Global Atlantic and Marshall Wace. This table excludes investments in our Strategic Holdings and Insurance segments, for which additional information is available in Note 21 "Segment Reporting" in our financial statements. Insurance Segment Investment Portfolio As of March 31, 2026, the Insurance segment’s investment portfolio (on an unconsolidated basis, excluding the elimination of intercompany balances) consisted of the following categories of investments: | ($ in thousands) | As of March 31, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | | --- | --- | --- | | Fixed-maturity securities, available-for-sale | $92,067,828 | $95,672,043 | | Mortgage and other loan receivables | 52,779,605 | 53,638,617 | | Fixed-maturity securities, trading | 26,670,358 | 26,419,591 | | Real assets | 15,401,351 | 15,369,758 | | Other investments | 8,041,000 | 6,936,028 | | Funds withheld receivables, at interest | 2,267,167 | 2,324,346 | | Total investments | $197,227,309 | $200,360,383 | The portion of Insurance segment’s investment portfolio consisting of floating rate assets was 26% and 27% as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Credit Quality of Fixed Maturity Securities As of March 31, 2026, 95%, and 91% of the Insurance segment’s fixed maturity securities were considered investment grade under ratings from the Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC and NRSROs, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, 95%, and 91% of fixed maturity securities were considered investment grade under ratings from NAIC and NRSROs, respectively. Securities where a rating by a NRSRO was not available are considered investment grade if they have a NAIC designation of “1” or “2.” The Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC evaluates the fixed maturity security investments of insurers for regulatory reporting and capital assessment purposes and assigns securities to one of six credit quality categories called “NAIC designations.” Using an internally developed rating is permitted by the NAIC if no rating is available. These designations are generally similar to the credit quality designations of NRSROs for marketable fixed maturity securities, except for certain structured securities as described below. NAIC designations of “1,” highest quality, and “2,” high quality, include fixed maturity securities generally considered investment grade by NRSROs. NAIC designations “3” through “6” include fixed maturity securities generally considered below investment grade by NRSROs. Consistent with the NAIC Process and Procedures Manual, a NRSRO rating was assigned based on the following criteria: (i) the equivalent S&P rating where the security is rated by one NRSRO; (ii) the equivalent S&P rating of the lowest NRSRO when the security is rated by two NRSROs; and (iii) the equivalent S&P rating of the second lowest NRSRO if the security is rated by three or more NRSROs. If the lowest two NRSROs’ ratings are equal, then such rating will be the assigned rating. NRSROs’ ratings available for the periods presented were S&P, Fitch, Moody’s, DBRS, Inc., and Kroll Bond Rating Agency, Inc. If no rating is available from a rating agency, then an internally developed rating is used. Within the funds withheld receivable at interest portfolio, 98% and 97% of the fixed maturity securities were investment grade by NAIC designation as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Trading fixed maturity securities primarily back funds withheld payable at interest where the investment performance is ceded to reinsurers under the terms of the respective reinsurance agreements. Unrealized Gains and Losses on Available-for-Sale Fixed Maturity Securities The Insurance segment’s investments in available-for-sale (“AFS”) fixed maturity securities are reported at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income as unrealized gains or losses, net of taxes and offsets. Unrealized gains and losses can be created by changes in interest rates or by changes in credit spreads. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Insurance segment had gross unrealized losses on below investment grade AFS fixed maturity securities of $370.2 million and $313.8 million based on NRSRO ratings, and $246.9 million and $187.7 million based on NAIC ratings, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, unrealized losses were not recognized in net income on these fixed maturity securities since the Insurance segment neither intends to sell the securities nor does it believe that it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their cost or amortized cost basis. Credit Quality of Mortgage and Other Loan Receivables Mortgage and other loan receivables consist of commercial and residential mortgage loans, consumer loans, and other loan receivables. As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 27% of Global Atlantic's total investments consisted of mortgage and other loan receivables, respectively. The Insurance segment invests in U.S. mortgage loans, comprised of first lien and mezzanine commercial mortgage loans and first lien residential mortgage loans. For the commercial mortgage loan portfolio, the most prevalent property type is multi-family residential buildings, which represents approximately half of the portfolio as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Office and retail properties represent approximately 20% and 21% of the portfolio as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The Insurance segment’s commercial mortgage loans are assigned NAIC designations, with designations “CM1” and “CM2” considered to be investment grade. As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 91% of the commercial mortgage loan portfolio were rated investment grade based on NAIC designation, respectively. The payment status of over 99% of the commercial mortgage loan portfolio is current as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The loan-to-value ratio is expressed as a percentage of the current amount of the loan relative to the value of the underlying collateral. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, approximately 90% and 89%, respectively, of the commercial mortgage loans have a loan-to-value ratio of 70% or less, and as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 2% have loan-to-value ratio over 90%, respectively. Changing economic conditions and updated assumptions affect the Insurance segment’s assessment of the collectibility of commercial mortgage loans. Changing vacancies and rents are incorporated into the analysis performed to measure the allowance for credit losses. In addition, the Insurance segment continuously monitors its commercial mortgage loan portfolio to identify risk. Areas of emphasis are properties that have exposure to specific geographic events or have deteriorating credit. The Insurance segment’s residential mortgage loan portfolio primarily includes mortgage loans backed by single family rental properties, prime loans, and re-performing loans that were purchased at a discount after they were modified and returned to performing status. The Insurance segment also extends financing to counterparties in the form of repurchase agreements secured by mortgage loans, including performing and non-performing mortgage loans. As of March 31, 2026, the payment status of 97% of the residential mortgage loan portfolio is current, and approximately $258.6 million is 90 days or more past due or in process of foreclosure (representing 1% of the total residential mortgage portfolio). As of December 31, 2025, the payment status of 97% of the residential mortgage loan portfolio was current and approximately $273.4 million were 90 days or more past due or in process of foreclosure (representing 1% of the total residential mortgage portfolio). The weighted average loan-to-value ratio for residential mortgage loans was 64% as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Insurance segment’s consumer loan portfolio is primarily comprised of home improvement loans, residential solar loans, student loans, and auto loans. As of March 31, 2026, 97% of the consumer loan portfolio is in current status and approximately $33.7 million is 90 days or more past due or in process of foreclosure (representing 1% of the total consumer loan portfolio). See Note 7 “Investments” in the accompanying financial statements in this report for additional information regarding the Insurance segment’s investment portfolio. Additional Information To provide supplemental information to stockholders about the net assets of KKR on a segment basis, KKR’s book value was $33.2 billion as of March 31, 2026, which included cash and short-term investments of $5.0 billion. KKR's book value includes its net investment in Global Atlantic, investments in the Asset Management and Strategic Holdings segments, and the net impact of certain other assets and liabilities, including income taxes. KKR's book value excludes the net assets allocable to investors in KKR’s investment funds and other noncontrolling interest holders. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 the Asset Management segment transferred $0.7 billion of investments to the Insurance segment for which no gain or loss was recognized upon transfer.

(2) Inclusive of equity incentive awards granted in April 2026, and assuming no additional grants and forfeitures, as of the date of this filing, the estimated Asset Management equity-based compensation for the second quarter of 2026 is expected to be approximately $190 million of expense associated with time-based vesting awards and performance-based vesting awards. This estimate is subject to various assumptions and could be impacted, positively or negatively, by various factors, including but not limited to if additional grants were made in the second quarter of 2026 or forfeitures of existing grants occurred during the second quarter of 2026, which may materially change our estimate.

Inc., (iii) includes the net investment in Global Atlantic, investments in the Asset Management and Strategic Holdings segments, and (iv) includes the net impact of certain other assets and liabilities, including the net impact of KKR's tax assets and liabilities as calculated under GAAP. Book Value excludes the dilutive impact of the conversion of any of KKR & Co. Inc.’s Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock. If all outstanding shares of the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into KKR & Co. Inc. common stock as of March 31, 2026, our Book Value would have increased by $2.5 billion and our common stock outstanding would have increased by 21.4 million shares. After March 31, 2026, equity awards representing 21.0 million shares of common stock vested and will be included in the number of adjusted shares outstanding beginning in the second quarter of 2026.

The overall liquidity framework and cash management approach of our insurance business are also based on seeking to build an investment portfolio that is cash flow matched, providing cash inflows from insurance assets that meet our insurance companies' expected cash outflows to pay their liabilities. Our primary cash flow activities typically involve (i) generating cash flow from operations; (ii) generating income from investment activities, by investing in investments that generate yield (namely interest and dividends), as well as through the sale of investments and other assets; (iii) funding capital commitments that we have made to, and advancing capital to, our funds and CLOs; (iv) developing and funding new investment strategies, investment products, and other growth initiatives, including acquisitions of other investments, assets, and businesses; (v) underwriting and funding capital commitments in our capital markets business; (vi) distributing cash flow to our stockholders and any holders of our preferred stock, if any; and (vii) paying borrowings, interest payments, and repayments under credit agreements, our senior and subordinated notes, and other borrowing arrangements. See "—Liquidity," "—Liquidity Needs," and "—Dividends and Stock Repurchases." See "Risk Factors" and "—Business Environment" in this report for more information on factors that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results, and valuations. Sources of Liquidity Our primary sources of liquidity consist of amounts received from: (i) our operating activities, including the fees earned from our funds, portfolio companies, and capital markets transactions; (ii) realizations on carried interest from our investment funds; (iii) interest and dividends from investments that generate yield, including our investments in CLOs; (iv) in our insurance business, cash inflows in respect of new premiums, policyholder deposits, reinsurance transactions, and funding agreements, including through memberships in FHLBs; (v) realizations on and sales of investments and other assets, including the transfers of investments or other assets for fund formations (including CLOs and other investment vehicles); and (vi) borrowings, including advances under our revolving credit facilities, debt offerings, repurchase agreements, and other borrowing arrangements. In addition, we may generate cash proceeds from issuances of our or our subsidiaries' equity securities. We have access to funding under various credit facilities, other borrowing arrangements and other sources of liquidity that we have entered into with major financial institutions or which we receive from the capital markets. For a discussion of our debt obligations, including our debt securities, revolving credit agreements and loans, see Note 16 "Debt Obligations" in our financial statements. Many of our investment funds like our private equity and real assets funds provide for carried interest. With respect to our carry-paying investment funds, carried interest is eligible to be distributed to the general partner of the fund only after all of the following are met: (i) a realization event has occurred (e.g., sale of a portfolio company, dividend, etc.); (ii) the vehicle has achieved positive overall investment returns since its inception, in excess of performance hurdles where applicable, and is accruing carried interest; and (iii) with respect to investments with a fair value below cost, cost has been returned to fund investors in an amount sufficient to reduce remaining cost to the investments' fair value. Even after all of the preceding conditions are met, the general partner of the fund may, in its sole discretion, decide to defer the distribution of carried interest to it to a later date. In addition, these funds generally include what is called a “clawback” provision, which provides that the general partner must return any carried interest that is paid in excess of what the general partner is entitled to receive at the end of the term of the fund, as discussed further below. As of March 31, 2026, certain of our investment funds had met the first and second criteria, as described above, but did not meet the third criteria. In these cases, carried interest accrues on the consolidated statement of operations, but will not be distributed in cash to us as the general partner of an investment fund upon a realization event. For a fund that has a fair value above cost, overall, and is otherwise accruing carried interest, but has one or more investments where fair value is below cost, the shortfall between cost and fair value for such investments is referred to as a "netting hole." When netting holes are present, realized gains on individual investments that would otherwise allow the general partner to receive carried interest distributions are instead used to return invested capital to our funds' limited partners in an amount equal to the netting hole. Once netting holes have been filled with either (i) return of capital equal to the netting hole for those investments where fair value is below cost or (ii) increases in the fair value of those investments where fair value is below cost, then realized carried interest will be distributed to the general partner upon a realization event. A fund that is in a position to pay cash carry refers to a fund for which carried interest is expected to be paid to the general partner upon the next material realization event, which includes funds with no netting holes as well as funds with a netting hole that is sufficiently small in size such that the next material realization event would be expected to result in the payment of carried interest. Strategic investor partnerships with fund investors may require netting across the various funds in which they invest, which may reduce the carried interest we otherwise would have earned if such fund investors were to have invested in our funds without the existence of the strategic investor partnership. As of March 31, 2026, netting holes in excess of $50 million existed at Global Impact Fund II and Global Impact Fund in the amount of $297 million and $59 million, respectively. The remaining unrealized gains accrued at these funds as of March 31, 2026 are in excess of their netting holes. In accordance with the criteria set forth above, other funds currently have and may in the future develop netting holes, and netting holes for those and other funds may otherwise increase or decrease in the future. If the investment fund has distributed carried interest but subsequently does not have sufficient value to provide for the distribution of carried interest at the end of the life of the investment fund, the general partner is typically required to return previously distributed carried interest to the fund investors. Current and former employees who received distributions of carried interest subject to clawback would be required to return the amount of such distributions to KKR. However, it is KKR’s obligation to return carried interest subject to clawback to the fund investors. As of March 31, 2026, approximately $195 million of previously distributed carried interest, in aggregate, was subject to a clawback obligation, assuming that all applicable carry-paying investment funds were liquidated at their reported fair values as of March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, there are no investment funds subject to a clawback obligation in excess of $50 million that has not already reduced net realized performance income. See Note 24 "Commitments and Contingencies—Contingent Repayment Guarantees" in our financial statements included elsewhere in this report for further information. See also the negative amounts included in the Carried Interest column in the table included in this Item 2 in “Fund Performance Metrics” for further information on clawback obligations. Liquidity Needs We expect that our primary liquidity needs will consist of cash required to meet various obligations, including, without limitation, to: - continue to support and grow our asset management business, including seeding new investment strategies, supporting capital commitments made by our investment vehicles to existing and future funds, co-investments and otherwise supporting the investment vehicles that we sponsor, and acquiring other assets, businesses, and investments for our businesses; - continue to support and grow our insurance business; - continue to support and grow our strategic holdings business, including through the acquisition of new operating companies; - grow and expand our businesses generally, including by acquiring or launching new, complementary, or adjacent businesses; - warehouse investments in portfolio companies or other investments for the benefit of one or more of our funds, accounts or CLOs or other investment vehicles pending the contribution of committed capital by the fund investors in such investment vehicles, and advancing capital to them for operational or other needs; - funding requirements to levered investment vehicles or structured transactions; - service debt obligations including the payment of obligations at maturity, on interest payment dates or upon redemption; - fund cash operating expenses and contingencies, including for litigation matters and guarantees; - pay corporate income taxes and other taxes; - pay policyholders and amounts in our insurance business related to investment, reinvestment, reinsurance, or funding agreement activity; - pay amounts that may become due under our tax receivable agreement; - pay cash dividends in accordance with our dividend policy for our common stock or the terms of our preferred stock; - underwrite commitments, advance loan proceeds, and fund syndication commitments within our capital markets business; - post or return collateral in respect of derivative contracts; - satisfy regulatory requirements for our capital markets business, risk retention requirements for CLOs (to the extent they may apply), or to address capital needs of unregulated and regulated subsidiaries, including capital and collateral requirements, as applicable, for our insurance and broker-dealer subsidiaries; and - repurchase shares of our common stock or retire equity awards pursuant to the share repurchase program or repurchase or redeem other securities issued by us (for a discussion of KKR's share repurchase program, see ### Note 22 "Equity" in our financial statements). Capital Commitments The agreements governing our active investment funds generally require the general partners of the funds to make minimum capital commitments to such funds, which generally range from 2% to 8% of a fund's total capital commitments at final closing, but may be greater for certain funds (i) where we are pursuing newer strategies, (ii) where third party investor demand is limited, and (iii) where a larger commitment is consistent with the asset allocation strategy. As of March 31, 2026, KKR had unfunded commitments consisting of $9.1 billion to its investment funds and other investment vehicles across Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines. These unfunded commitments include $2.7 billion of uncalled capital commitments to certain investment vehicles in connection with investments in the core private equity strategy. These unfunded commitments also include funding requirements to levered investment vehicles and structured transactions to fund or otherwise be liable for a portion of the vehicle's investment losses and/or to provide the vehicle with liquidity upon certain termination events. In addition to these uncalled commitments and funding obligations to KKR's investment funds and investment vehicles, KKR has entered into contractual commitments primarily with respect to underwriting transactions, debt financing, revolving credit facilities, and equity syndications in our Capital Markets business line. As of March 31, 2026, these capital markets commitments amounted to $0.6 billion. Whether these amounts are actually funded, in whole or in part, depends on the contractual terms of such capital markets commitments, including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions to closing or funding. From time to time, we fund these various capital markets commitments noted above in our capital markets business by drawing all or substantially all of our availability for borrowings under our available credit facilities available for our Capital Markets business line. We generally expect these borrowings by our capital markets business to be repaid promptly as these commitments are syndicated to third parties or otherwise fulfilled or terminated, although we may in some instances elect to retain a portion of the commitments for our own investment. Additionally, KKR's capital markets business has arrangements with third parties, which are expected to reduce KKR's risk under certain circumstances when underwriting certain debt transactions. As a result, our unfunded capital markets commitments as of March 31, 2026 have been reduced to reflect the amount expected to be funded by such third parties. As of March 31, 2026, KKR's capital markets business line has entered into such arrangements representing a total notional amount of $5.0 billion. For more information about our Capital Markets business line's risks, see "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Our capital markets activities expose us to material risks" in our Annual Report. Tax Receivable Agreement On May 30, 2022, KKR terminated the tax receivable agreement with KKR Holdings other than with respect to exchanges of KKR Holdings equity completed prior to such date. As of March 31, 2026, an undiscounted payable of $335.1 million has been recorded in due to affiliates in the financial statements representing management's best estimate of the amounts currently expected to be owed for certain exchanges of KKR Holdings equity that took place prior to the termination of the tax receivable agreement. As of March 31, 2026, $155.8 million of cumulative cash payments have been made under the tax receivable agreement since inception. Dividends and Stock Repurchases A dividend of $0.195 per share of our common stock has been declared and will be paid on May 29, 2026 to holders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on May 15, 2026. A dividend of $0.78125 per share of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock has been declared and set aside for payment on June 1, 2026 to holders of record of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock as of the close of business on May 15, 2026. When KKR & Co. Inc. receives distributions from KKR Group Partnership, holders of exchangeable securities receive their pro rata share of such distributions from KKR Group Partnership. The declaration and payment of dividends to our common or preferred stockholders will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors, and our dividend policy may be changed at any time. We announced on February 5, 2026 that our current dividend policy will be to pay dividends to holders of our common stock in an annual aggregate amount of $0.78 per share (or a quarterly dividend of $0.195 per share) beginning with the dividend announced with the results for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The declaration of dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors based on a number of factors, including KKR’s future financial performance and other considerations that the Board of Directors deems relevant, and compliance with the terms of KKR & Co. Inc.'s certificate of incorporation and applicable law. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, any dividends we pay (including dividends on our preferred stock) generally will be treated as qualified dividend income for U.S. individual stockholders to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. There can be no assurance that future dividends will be made as intended or at all or that any particular dividend policy for our common stock or our preferred stock will be maintained. Furthermore, the declaration and payment of distributions by KKR Group Partnership and our other subsidiaries may also be subject to legal, contractual and regulatory restrictions, including restrictions contained in our debt agreements. Since 2015, KKR has repurchased, or retired equity awards representing, a total of 97.7 million shares of common stock for $3.1 billion, which equates to an average price of $31.56 per share. As of May 1, 2026, there is approximately $122 million remaining under KKR's share repurchase program. For further information See "Part II—Item 2—Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.” Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies In the ordinary course of business, we and our consolidated funds and CFEs enter into contractual arrangements that may require future cash payments. Contractual arrangements include (1) commitments to fund the purchase of investments or other assets (including obligations to fund capital commitments as the general partner of our investment funds) or to fund collateral for derivative transactions or otherwise, (2) obligations arising under our senior notes, subordinated notes, and other indebtedness, (3) commitments by our capital markets business to underwrite transactions or to lend capital, (4) obligations arising under insurance policies written, (5) other contractual obligations, including servicing agreements with third-party administrators for insurance policy administration, and (6) commitments to fund the business, operations or investments of our subsidiaries. In addition, we may incur contingent liabilities for claims that may be made against us in the future. For more information about these contingent liabilities, please see Note 24 "Commitments and Contingencies" in our financial statements. Off Balance Sheet Arrangements We do not have any off-balance sheet financings or liabilities other than contractual commitments and other legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of our business. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the recognition and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, investment income (loss) and income taxes during the reporting periods. Such estimates include but are not limited to (i) the valuation of investments and financial instruments, (ii) the determination of the income tax provision, (iii) the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, (iv) the impairment of available-for-sale investments, (v) the valuation of insurance policy liabilities, including market risk benefits, (vi) the valuation of embedded derivatives in policy liabilities and funds withheld, and (vii) the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Our management bases these estimates and judgments on available information, historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. However, these estimates, judgments and assumptions are often subjective and may be impacted negatively based on changing circumstances or changes in our analyses. If actual amounts are ultimately different from those estimated, judged or assumed, revisions are included in the financial statements in the period in which the actual amounts become known. We believe our critical accounting policies could potentially produce materially different results if we were to change underlying estimates, judgments or assumptions. For a further discussion about our critical accounting policies, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our financial statements included in this report. Basis of Accounting We consolidate the financial results of KKR Group Partnership and its consolidated entities, which include the accounts of our investment advisers, broker-dealers, Global Atlantic’s insurance companies, the general partners of certain unconsolidated investment funds, general partners of consolidated investment funds and their respective consolidated investment funds, and certain other entities including CFEs. When an entity is consolidated, we reflect the accounts of the consolidated entity, including its assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, investment income, cash flows, and other amounts, on a gross basis. While the consolidation of an investment fund or entity does not have an effect on the amounts of Net Income Attributable to KKR or KKR's stockholders' equity that KKR reports, the consolidation does significantly impact the financial statement presentation under GAAP. This is due to the fact that the accounts of the consolidated entities are reflected on a gross basis while the allocable share of those amounts that are attributable to third parties are reflected as single line items. The single line items in which the accounts attributable to third parties are recorded are presented as noncontrolling interests on the consolidated statements of financial condition and net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests on the consolidated statements of operations. The presentations in the consolidated statement of financial condition and consolidated statement of operations reflect the significant industry diversification of KKR by its acquisition of Global Atlantic. Global Atlantic operates an insurance business, and KKR operates an asset management business, which manages the operations of the Strategic Holdings segment (see Note 21 "Segment Reporting") in our financial statements included in this report, each of which possess distinct characteristics. As a result, KKR developed a two-tiered approach for the financial statements presentation, where Global Atlantic's insurance operations are presented separately from KKR's asset management business. KKR believes that these separate presentations provide a more informative view of the consolidated financial position and results of operations than traditional aggregated presentations and that reporting Global Atlantic’s insurance operations separately is appropriate given, among other factors, the relative significance of Global Atlantic’s policy liabilities, which are not obligations of KKR (other than the insurance companies that issued them). If a traditional aggregate presentation were to be used, KKR would expect to eliminate or combine several identical or similar captions, which would condense the presentations, but would also reduce the level of information presented. KKR also believes that using a traditional aggregate presentation would result in no new line items compared to the two-tier presentation included in the financial statements in this report. In the ordinary course of business, KKR’s Asset Management, Strategic Holdings, and Insurance businesses enter into transactions with each other, which may include transactions pursuant to their investment management agreements and financing arrangements. The borrowings from these financing arrangements are non-recourse to KKR beyond the assets pledged to support such borrowings. All the investment management and financing arrangements amongst KKR’s Asset Management, Strategic Holdings, and Insurance businesses are eliminated in consolidation. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Consolidation KKR consolidates all entities that it controls either through a majority voting interest or as the primary beneficiary of variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The following discussion is intended to provide supplemental information about how the application of consolidation principles impact our financial results, and management’s process for implementing those principles including areas of significant judgment. For a detailed description of our accounting policy on consolidation, see ### Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our financial statements included in this report. As part of its consolidation procedures, KKR evaluates: (i) whether it holds a variable interest in an entity, (ii) whether the entity is a VIE, and (iii) whether the KKR’s involvement would make it the primary beneficiary. The determination that KKR holds a controlling financial interest in an investment vehicle significantly changes the presentation of our consolidated financial statements. The assessment of whether we consolidate an investment vehicle we manage requires the application of significant judgment. These judgments are applied both at the time we become involved with an investment vehicle and on an ongoing basis and include, but are not limited to: - Determining whether our management fees, carried interests, or incentive fees represent variable interests - We make judgments as to whether the fees we earn are commensurate with the level of effort required for those fees and at market rates. In making this judgment, we consider, among other things, the extent of third party investment in the entity and the terms of any other interests we hold in the VIE. - Determining whether a legal entity qualifies as a VIE - For those entities where KKR holds a variable interest, management determines whether each of these entities qualifies as a VIE and, if so, whether or not KKR is the primary beneficiary. The assessment of whether the entity is a VIE is generally performed qualitatively, which requires judgment. These judgments include: (i) determining whether the equity investment at risk is sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (ii) evaluating whether the equity holders, as a group, can make decisions that have a significant effect on the economic performance of the entity, (iii) determining whether two or more parties’ equity interests should be aggregated, and (iv) determining whether the equity investors have proportionate voting rights to their obligations to absorb losses or rights to receive returns from an entity. Entities that do not qualify as VIEs are generally assessed for consolidation as voting interest entities. Under the voting interest entity model, KKR consolidates those entities it controls through a majority voting interest. - Concluding whether KKR has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE - As there is no explicit threshold in GAAP to define “potentially significant,” we must apply judgment and evaluate both quantitative and qualitative factors to conclude whether this threshold is met. Changes to these judgments could result in a change in the consolidation conclusion for a legal entity. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. For further information about our fair value measurements accounting policies, please see “Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Fair Value Measurements” in our Annual Report. Level III Valuation Methodologies Our investments and financial instruments are impacted by various economic conditions and events outside of our control that are difficult to quantify or predict, which may have a significant impact on the valuation of our investments and, therefore, on the carried interest and investment income we realize.  There is inherent uncertainty involved in the valuation of Level III investments, and there is no assurance that, upon liquidation, KKR will realize the values reflected in our valuations. Our valuations may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material. See "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report and "—Business Environment" in this report for more information on factors that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results, and valuations. Key unobservable inputs that have a significant impact on our Level III valuations as described above are included in Note 9 "Fair Value Measurements" in our financial statements. Across the total Level III private equity investment portfolio (including core private equity investments) held directly and through both consolidated and unconsolidated investment vehicles in our Asset Management segment, the overall weights ascribed to a market comparables valuation methodology, the discounted cash flow valuation methodology, and a valuation methodology based on pending sales for this portfolio of Level III private equity investments (including core private equity investments) were 39%, 56%, and 5%, respectively, as of March 31, 2026. Across the total Level III real assets investment portfolio held directly and through both consolidated and unconsolidated investment vehicles in our Asset Management segment, the overall weights ascribed to a market comparables valuation methodology, the discounted cash flow valuation methodology, the direct income capitalization valuation methodology, and a valuation methodology based on pending sales for this portfolio of Level III real assets investments were 3%, 88%, 2%, and 7%, respectively, as of March 31, 2026. Level III Valuation Process The valuation process involved for Level III measurements for our financial statements is completed on a quarterly basis and is designed to subject the valuation of Level III investments to an appropriate level of consistency, oversight, and review. For private equity and real asset investments classified as Level III, investment professionals prepare preliminary valuations based on their evaluation of financial and operating data, company specific developments, market valuations of comparable companies, and other factors. KKR begins its procedures to determine the fair values of its Level III assets approximately one month prior to the end of a reporting period, and KKR follows additional procedures to ensure that its determinations of fair value for its Level III assets are appropriate as of the relevant reporting date. These preliminary valuations are generally reviewed by an independent valuation firm engaged by KKR to perform certain procedures in order to assess the reasonableness of KKR's valuations. The valuations of certain real asset investments are determined solely by independent valuation firms without the preparation of preliminary valuations by our investment professionals, and instead such independent valuation firms rely on valuation information available to it as a broker or valuation firm. For credit investments, an independent valuation firm is engaged by KKR to assist with the valuations of most investments classified as Level III. As of March 31, 2026, less than 5% of the total value of Level III investments in aggregate across all of our segments were not valued with the engagement of an independent valuation firm. For Level III investments, KKR has a Global Valuation Committee that is responsible for coordinating and implementing the firm's valuation processes to ensure consistency in the application of valuation principles across portfolio investments and between reporting periods. The Global Valuation Committee is assisted by the asset class-specific valuation committees, which are responsible for the review and approval of all preliminary Level III valuations in their respective asset classes at least on a quarterly basis. The members of these valuation committees are comprised of investment professionals and professionals from business operations functions such as legal, compliance, and finance, who are not primarily responsible for the management of the investments. All Level III valuations for investments are also subject to approval by the Global Valuation Committee, which is comprised of senior employees including investment professionals and professionals from business operations functions, and includes KKR's Chief Financial Officer, Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel, and Chief Compliance Officer. Once Level III valuations are approved by the Global Valuation Committee, a presentation of such valuations is provided to the Audit Committee and then to the Board of Directors of KKR & Co. Inc. Level III valuations for our insurance segment’s investments are approved by the Global Atlantic Valuation Committee prior to being presented to the Global Valuation Committee. As described above, Level III investments were valued using internal models with significant unobservable inputs, and our determinations of the fair values of these investments may differ materially from the values that would have resulted if readily observable inputs had existed. Additional external factors may cause those values, and the values of investments for which readily observable inputs exist, to increase or decrease over time, which may create volatility in our earnings and the amounts of assets and stockholders' equity that we report from time to time. Changes in the fair value of investments impacts the amount of carried interest that is recognized as well as the amount of investment income that is recognized for investments across our business segments and through our consolidated funds as described below. We estimate that an immediate 10% decrease in the fair value of investments held directly and through consolidated investment funds generally would result in a commensurate change in the amount of net gains (losses) from investment activities for investments held directly and through investment funds and a more significant impact to the amount of carried interest recognized, regardless of whether the investment was valued using observable market prices or management estimates with significant unobservable pricing inputs. With respect to consolidated investment funds, the impact that the consequential decrease in investment income would have on net income attributable to KKR would generally be significantly less than the amount described above, given that a majority of the change in fair value of our consolidated funds would be attributable to noncontrolling interests and therefore we are only impacted to the extent of our carried interest and our ownership in the consolidated investment funds and investment vehicles. As of March 31, 2026, upon completion by, where applicable, independent valuation firms of certain limited procedures requested to be performed by them on certain Level III investments, the independent valuation firms concluded that the fair values, as determined by KKR (including Global Atlantic), of those investments reviewed by them were reasonable. The limited procedures did not involve an audit, review, compilation or any other form of examination or attestation under generally accepted auditing standards and were not conducted on all Level III investments. We are responsible for determining the fair value of investments in good faith, and the limited procedures performed by an independent valuation firm are supplementary to the inquiries and procedures that we are required to undertake to determine the fair value of the commensurate investments on a GAAP basis. As of March 31, 2026, there were no investments across business segments which represented greater than 5% of total investments on a GAAP basis. Our investment income on a GAAP and segment basis can be impacted by volatility in the public markets. See "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report and "—Business Environment" in this report for a discussion of factors that may impact the valuations of our investments, financial results, operating results, and valuations, and "—Segment Balance Sheet Measures" for additional information regarding our largest holdings on a segment basis. Business Combinations KKR accounts 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 using the fair values determined by management as of the acquisition date. 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 may incorporate management’s own assumptions and involve a significant degree of 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 as well as the useful lives of those acquired intangible assets. Examples of critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets we have acquired include, but are not limited to, future expected cash inflows and outflows, future fundraising assumptions, expected useful life, discount rates, and income tax rates. Our 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 we are using to manage the underlying assets acquired. We estimate the useful lives of the intangible assets based on the expected period over which we anticipate generating 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 result. Income Taxes Significant judgment is required in estimating the provision for (benefit from) income taxes, current and deferred tax balances (including valuation allowance), accrued interest or penalties, and uncertain tax positions. In evaluating these judgments, we consider, among other items, projections of taxable income (including the character of such income), beginning with historic results and incorporating assumptions of the amount of future pre-tax operating income. These assumptions about future taxable income require significant judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates that KKR uses to manage its business. Revisions in estimates or actual costs of a tax assessment may ultimately be materially different from the recorded accruals and unrecognized tax benefits, if any. Please see Note 18 "Income Taxes" in our financial statements in this report for further details. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates – Asset Management and Strategic Holdings Revenues Fees and Other Fees and other consist primarily of (i) management and incentive fees from providing investment management services to unconsolidated funds, CLOs, other investment vehicles, and separately managed accounts; (ii) transaction fees earned in connection with successful investment transactions and from capital markets activities; (iii) monitoring fees from providing services to portfolio companies; (iv) expense reimbursements from certain investment funds and portfolio companies; and (v) consulting fees. These fees are based on the contractual terms of the governing agreements and are recognized when earned, which coincides with the period during which the related services are performed and in the case of transaction fees, upon closing of the transaction. Monitoring fees may provide for a termination payment following an initial public offering or change of control. These termination payments are recognized in the period when the related transaction closes. Transaction fee calculations and management fee calculations based on committed capital or invested capital typically do not require discretion and therefore do not require the use of significant estimates or judgments. Management fee calculations based on net asset value depend on the fair value of the underlying investments within the investment vehicles. Estimates and assumptions are made when determining the fair value of the underlying investments within the funds and could vary depending on the valuation methodology that is used as well as economic conditions. Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) Capital allocation-based income (loss) is earned from those arrangements whereby KKR serves as general partner and includes income or loss from KKR's capital interest as well as "carried interest" which entitles KKR to a disproportionate allocation of investment income or loss from an investment fund's limited partners. Carried interest is recognized upon appreciation of the funds’ investment values above certain return hurdles set forth in their partnership agreement. KKR recognizes revenues attributable to capital allocation-based income based upon the amount that would be due pursuant to the fund partnership agreement at each period end as if the funds were terminated at that date. Accordingly, the amount recognized reflects KKR’s share of the gains and losses of the associated funds’ underlying investments measured at their then-current fair values relative to the fair values as of the end of the prior period. Because of the inherent uncertainty in measuring the fair value of investments in the absence of observable market prices as previously discussed, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material. Expenses Compensation and Benefits Compensation and Benefits expense includes (i) base cash compensation consisting of salaries and wages, (ii) benefits, (iii) carry pool allocations, (iv) equity-based compensation, and (v) discretionary cash bonuses. Discretionary Cash Bonus To supplement base cash compensation, benefits, carry pool allocations, and equity-based compensation, we typically pay discretionary cash bonuses, which are included in Compensation and Benefits expense in the consolidated statements of operations, based principally on the level of (i) management fees and other fee related revenues (including incentive fees), (ii) realized performance income, which includes realized carried interest, and (iii) realized investment income earned during the year. The amounts paid as discretionary cash bonuses, if any, are at our sole discretion and vary from individual to individual and from period to period, including having no cash bonus. We accrue discretionary cash bonuses when payment becomes probable and reasonably estimable which is generally in the period when we make the decision to pay discretionary cash bonuses and is based upon a number of factors, including the recognition of asset management segment revenues, and other factors determined during the year. We expect to pay our employees by assigning a percentage range to each component of asset management segment revenues. We expect to use approximately: (i) 15%-20% of fee related revenues, (ii) 70%-80% of realized carried interest and incentive fees not included in fee related performance revenues or earned from our hedge fund partnerships, and (iii) 10%-20% of realized investment income and hedge fund partnership incentive fees, to pay our asset management employees. Because these ranges are applied to applicable asset management segment revenue components independently, and on an annual basis, the amount paid as a percentage of total asset management segment revenue will vary and will, for example, likely be higher in a period with relatively higher realized carried interest and lower in a period with relatively lower realized carried interest. We decide whether to pay a discretionary cash bonus and determine the percentage of applicable revenue components to pay compensation only upon the occurrence of the realization event. There is no contractual or other binding obligation that requires us to pay a discretionary cash bonus to the asset management employees, except in limited circumstances. Carry Pool Allocation With respect to our funds that provide for carried interest, we allocate a portion of the realized and unrealized carried interest that we earn to Associates Holdings, which we refer to as the carry pool, from which our asset management employees and certain other carry pool participants are eligible to receive a carried interest allocation. The allocation is determined based upon a fixed arrangement between Associates Holdings and us, and we do not exercise discretion on whether to make an allocation to the carry pool upon a realization event. We refer to the portion of carried interest that we allocate to the carry pool as the carry pool percentage. Effective January 2, 2024, KKR applies a carry pool percentage of up to 80% for all funds, which is a carry pool percentage in excess of the carry pool percentages previously fixed by investment fund as discussed further below, which depended on the fund’s vintage. This increase to the carry pool percentage was approved by a majority of KKR's independent directors, and the carry pool percentage may not be increased above 80% without the further approval of a majority of KKR's independent directors. For funds that closed after December 31, 2023, the carry pool percentage is fixed at 80%. For funds that closed prior to December 31, 2023, the carry pool percentage is calculated at a fixed percentage of 40%, 43%, or 65% (depending on the fund’s vintage) for carried interest realized up to a high water mark, which was established based on the unrealized carried interest balance that existed on January 2, 2024, plus an additional percentage amount up to 80% based on a formulaic allocation, only if the unrealized carried interest balance at any period end exceeds the high water mark. This imposes a limitation of the carry pool allocation for such funds based on the amount of cumulative unrealized carried interest income earned subsequent to December 31, 2023. For funds that closed before December 31, 2023, if the cumulative carried interest subsequent to December 31, 2023 is not sufficient to fund this formulaic allocation, the allocation of earnings reverts to the carry pool percentage in effect before this modification. As such, upon modification of the carry pool percentage effective on January 2, 2024, the cumulative unrealized carried interest was not sufficient to fund the additional formulaic allocation percentage in excess of the pre- existing 40%, 43%, and 65% carry pool percentages, and therefore no incremental expense was recognized as of such date. The carry pool percentage applicable for all funds that closed prior to December 31, 2023 will not be less than their applicable carry pool percentages of 40%, 43%, or 65% prior to December 31, 2023 (for funds that closed after December 31, 2020 but before December 31, 2023, the carry pool percentage was fixed at 65%; for funds that closed after June 30, 2017 but before December 31, 2020, the carry pool percentage was fixed at 43%; and the carry pool percentage was fixed at 40% for older funds that contributed to KKR's carry pool), and will not be more than 80%. The intent of this modification is that for all funds that closed prior to January 2, 2024, upon the final liquidation of each fund, realized carried interest distributed will equal the historical fund carry pool allocations up to the high water mark and only distributions of realized carried interest in excess of the high water mark will be distributed at 80 percent if and only if the unrealized carried interest balance at any period end exceeds the high water mark. Under no circumstance would a distribution of carried interest exceed 80% of the total allocable carried interest at any time. KKR accounts for the carry pool as a compensatory profit-sharing arrangement in Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities within the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition in conjunction with the related carried interest income and it is recorded as compensation expense. The liability that is recorded in each period reflects the legal entitlement of Associates Holdings at each point in time should the total unrealized carried interest be realized at the value recorded at each reporting date. Upon a reversal of carried interest income, the related carry pool allocation, if any, is also reversed. Accordingly, such compensation expense is subject to both positive and negative adjustments. On the Sunset Date (which will not be later than December 31, 2026), KKR will acquire control of Associates Holdings and will commence making decisions regarding the allocation of the carry proceeds pursuant to the limited partnership agreement of Associates Holdings. Until the Sunset Date, our Co-Founders will continue to make decisions regarding the allocation of the carry proceeds to themselves and others, pursuant to the limited partnership agreement of Associates Holdings, provided that any allocation of carry proceeds to the Co-Founders will be on a percentage basis consistent with past practice. For additional information about the Sunset Date and the Reorganization Agreement, see Note 1 "Organization" in our financial statements included in this report. Equity-based Compensation In addition to the cash-based compensation and carry pool allocations as described above, employees receive equity awards under our Equity Incentive Plan, most of which are subject to service-based vesting typically over a three to five-year period from the date of grant, and some of which are also subject to the achievement of market-based conditions. Certain of these awards are subject to post-vesting transfer restrictions and minimum retained ownership requirements. Compensation expense relating to the issuance of equity-based awards is measured at fair value on the grant date. In determining the aggregate fair value of any award grants, we make judgments as to the grant-date fair value, particularly for certain equity awards with a vesting condition based upon market conditions, whose grant date fair values are based on a probability distributed Monte-Carlo simulation. See Note 19 "Equity-based Compensation,” in our financial statements included in this report for further discussion and activity of these awards. Investment Income (Loss) – Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities Net gains (losses) from investment activities consist of realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from our investment activities as well as income earned from certain equity method investments. Fluctuations in net gains (losses) from investment activities between reporting periods is driven primarily by changes in the fair value of our investment portfolio as well as the realization of investments. The fair value of, as well as the ability to recognize gains from, our investments is significantly impacted by the global financial markets, which, in turn, affects the net gains (losses) from investment activities recognized in any given period. Upon the disposition of an investment, previously recognized unrealized gains and losses are reversed and an offsetting realized gain or loss is recognized in the current period. Since our investments are carried at fair value, fluctuations between periods could be significant due to changes to the inputs to our valuation process over time. For a further discussion of our fair value measurements and fair value of investments, see above "—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates—Fair Value Measurements." Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates – Insurance Policy liabilities, or colloquially, “reserves,” are the portion of past premiums or assessments received that are set aside to meet future policy and contract obligations as they become due. Interest accrues on the reserves and on future premiums, which may also be available to pay for future obligations. Global Atlantic establishes reserves to pay future policy benefits, claims, and certain expenses for its life policies and annuity contracts. Global Atlantic’s reserves are estimated based on models that include many actuarial assumptions and projections. These assumptions and projections, which are inherently uncertain, involve significant judgment, including assumptions as to the levels and/or timing of premiums, benefits, claims, expenses, interest credits, investment results (including equity market returns), mortality, longevity, and persistency. The assumptions on which reserves are based are intended to represent an estimation of experience for the period that policy benefits are payable. Global Atlantic reviews the adequacy of its reserves and the assumptions underlying those reserves at least annually. Global Atlantic cannot, however, determine with precision the amount or the timing of actual benefit payments. If actual experience is better than or equal to the assumptions, then reserves would be adequate to provide for future benefits and expenses. If experience is worse than the assumptions, additional reserves may be required to meet future policy and contract obligations. This would result in a charge to Global Atlantic's net income during the period in which excess benefits are paid or an increase in reserves occurs. For a majority of Global Atlantic’s in-force policies, including its interest-sensitive life policies and most annuity contracts, the base policy reserve is equal to the account value. For these products, the account value represents Global Atlantic’s obligation to repay to the policyholder the amounts held with Global Atlantic on deposit. However, there are several significant blocks of business where policy reserves, in addition to the account value, are explicitly calculated, including variable annuities, fixed-indexed annuities, interest-sensitive life products (including those with secondary guarantees), and preneed policies. Market Risk Benefits Market risk benefits are contracts or contract features that both provide protection to the policyholder from other-than- nominal capital market risk and expose Global Atlantic to other-than-nominal capital market risk. Market risk benefits include certain contract features on fixed annuity and variable annuity products, including minimum guarantees to policyholders, such as guaranteed minimum death benefits ("GMDBs"), guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits ("GMWBs"), and long- term care benefits (which are capped at the return of account value plus one or two times the account value). Some of Global Atlantic's variable annuity and fixed-indexed annuity contracts contain a GMDB feature that provides a guarantee that the benefit received at death will be no less than a prescribed minimum amount, even if the account balance is reduced to zero. This amount is based on either the net deposits paid into the contract, the net deposits accumulated at a specified rate, the highest historical account value on a contract anniversary, or sometimes a combination of these values. If the GMDB is higher than the current account value at the time of death, Global Atlantic incurs a cost equal to the difference. Global Atlantic issues fixed-indexed annuity and variable annuity contracts with a guaranteed minimum withdrawal feature. GMWB are an optional benefit where the contract owner is entitled to withdraw a maximum amount of their benefit base each year. Once exercised, living benefit features provide annuity policyholders with a minimum guaranteed stream of income for life. A policyholder’s annual income benefit is generally based on an annual withdrawal percentage multiplied by the benefit base. The benefit base is defined in the policy and is generally the initial premium, reduced by any partial withdrawals and increased by a defined percentage, formula, or index credits. Any living benefit payments are first deducted from the account value. Global Atlantic is responsible for paying any excess guaranteed living benefits still owed after the account value has reached zero. The ultimate cost of these benefits will depend on the level of market returns and the level of contractual guarantees, as well as policyholder behavior, including surrenders, withdrawals, and benefit utilization. For Global Atlantic's fixed-indexed annuity products, costs also include certain non-guaranteed terms that impact the ultimate cost, such as caps on crediting rates that Global Atlantic can, in its discretion, reset annually. See Note 17 “Policy Liabilities” in our financial statements for additional information. As of March 31, 2026, the net market risk liability balance totaled $1.4 billion. As of March 31, 2026, the liability balances for market risk benefits were $1.2 billion for fixed-indexed annuities and $222.8 million for variable and other annuities. The increase (decrease) to the net market risk benefit liability balance as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates, instrument-specific credit risk, equity market prices, expected mortality, and expected surrenders are summarized in the table below. This sensitivity considers the direct effect of such changes only and not changes in any other assumptions used in or items considered in the measurement of such balances. _As of March 31, 2026_ | ($ in thousands) | Fixed-Indexed Annuity | Other | | --- | --- | --- | | Balance | $1,159,749 | $222,803 | | Hypothetical Change: | | | | +50 bps Interest Rates | (154,125) | (35,341) | | -50 bps Interest Rates | 171,258 | 38,991 | | +50 bps Instrument-specific Credit Risk | (155,321) | (18,863) | | -50 bps Instrument-specific Credit Risk | 171,746 | 20,496 | | +10% Equity Market Prices | (73,824) | (32,485) | | -10% Equity Market Prices | 52,339 | 35,574 | | 95% of Expected Mortality | 63,458 | 4,086 | | 105% of Expected Mortality | (59,687) | (3,546) | | 90% of Expected Surrenders | 31,453 | 1,437 | | 110% of Expected Surrenders | (29,977) | (1,414) | Note: Hypothetical changes to the market risk benefits liability balance do not reflect the impact of related hedges. Policy Liabilities Accounted for Under a Fair Value Option Variable annuity contracts offered and assumed by Global Atlantic provide the contractholder with a GMDB. The liabilities for these benefits are included in policy liabilities. Global Atlantic elected the fair value option to measure the liability for certain of these variable annuity contracts valued at $254.1 million as of March 31, 2026. Fair value is calculated as the present value of the estimated death benefits less the present value of the GMDB fees, using 1,000 risk neutral scenarios. Global Atlantic discounts the cash flows using the U.S. Treasury rates plus an adjustment for instrument-specific credit risk in the consolidated statement of financial condition. The change in the liabilities for these benefits is included in policy benefits and claims in the consolidated statement of operations. As of March 31, 2026, variable annuities accounted for using the fair value option totaled $254.1 million. The increase (decrease) in the reserves for variable annuities accounted for using the fair value option as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates, instrument-specific credit risk, equity market prices, expected mortality, and expected surrenders are summarized in the table below. This sensitivity considers the direct effect of such changes only and not changes in any other assumptions used in or items considered in the measurement of such balances. _As of March 31, 2026_ | ($ in thousands) | Variable Annuities | | --- | --- | | Balance | $254,107 | | Hypothetical Change: | | | +50 bps Interest Rates | (16,475) | | -50 bps Interest Rates | 17,810 | | +50 bps Instrument-specific Credit Risk | (10,032) | | -50 bps Instrument-specific Credit Risk | 10,379 | | +10% Equity Market Prices | (13,470) | | -10% Equity Market Prices | 16,044 | | 95% of Expected Mortality | (4,695) | | 105% of Expected Mortality | 4,494 | | 90% of Expected Surrenders | 105 | | 110% of Expected Surrenders | (131) | Note: Hypothetical changes to the liability balances do not reflect the impact of related hedges. Liability for Future Policyholder Benefits A liability for future policy benefits, which is the present value of estimated future policy benefits to be paid to or on behalf of policyholders and certain related expenses less the present value of estimated future net premiums to be collected from policyholders, is accrued as premium revenue is recognized. The liability is estimated using current assumptions that include mortality, morbidity, lapses, and expenses. These current assumptions are based on judgments that consider Global Atlantic’s historical experience, industry data, and other factors, and are updated quarterly and the current period change in the liability is recognized as a separate component of benefit expense in the consolidated income statement. As of March 31, 2026, the liability for future policy benefits totaled $14.2 billion, net of reinsurance, split between $12.5 billion associated with payout annuity products, and $1.7 billion of life and other insurance products (including assumed long- term care insurance where Global Atlantic retroceded mortality and morbidity risks to a third-party reinsurer). The increase (decrease) as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates, credit spreads, expected mortality, and expected surrenders and lapses are summarized in the table below. This sensitivity considers the direct effect of such changes only and not changes in any other assumptions used in or items considered in the measurement of such balances. _As of March 31, 2026_ | ($ in thousands) | Payout Annuities | Other | | --- | --- | --- | | Balance | $12,523,843 | $1,683,664 | | Hypothetical Change: | | | | +50 bps Interest Rates | (217,890) | (470,702) | | -50 bps Interest Rates | 233,752 | 507,260 | | +50 bps Credit Spreads | (165,764) | (356,480) | | -50 bps Credit Spreads | 171,753 | 370,947 | | 95% of Expected Mortality(1) | 77,728 | 40,664 | | 105% of Expected Mortality(1) | (73,821) | (38,668) | | 90% of Expected Surrenders/Lapses | — | (10,910) | | 110% of Expected Surrenders/Lapses | — | 9,935 | Note: Hypothetical changes to the liability for future policy benefits balance do not reflect the impact of related hedges. (1) Includes decrements for terminations of disability insurance. Additional Liability for Annuitization, Death, or Other Insurance Benefits: No-Lapse Guarantees Global Atlantic has in-force interest-sensitive life contracts where it provides a secondary guarantee to the policyholder. The policy can remain in-force, even if the base policy account value is zero, as long as contractual secondary guarantee requirements have been met. The primary risk to Global Atlantic is that the premium collected under these policies, together with the investment return Global Atlantic earns on that premium, is ultimately insufficient to pay the policyholder’s benefits and the expenses associated with issuing and administering these policies. Global Atlantic holds an additional reserve in connection with these guarantees. The additional reserves related to interest-sensitive life products with secondary guarantees are calculated using methods similar to those described above under “—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates – Insurance—Policy Liabilities— Market Risk Benefits.” The costs related to these secondary guarantees are recognized over the life of the contracts through the accrual and subsequent release of a reserve which is revalued each period. The reserve is calculated based on assessments, over a range of economic scenarios to incorporate the variability in the obligation that may occur under different environments. The change in the reserve is included in policy benefits and claims in the consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2026, the additional liability balance of primarily interest-sensitive life totaled $6.2 billion, net of reinsurance. The increase (decrease) to the additional liability balance, as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates, equity market prices, annual equity growth, expected mortality, and expected surrenders are summarized in the table below. This sensitivity considers the direct effect of such changes only and not changes in any other assumptions used in or items considered in the measurement of the interest-sensitive life no-lapse guarantee liability balance. _As of March 31, 2026_ | ($ in thousands) | Interest-Sensitive Life | | --- | --- | | Balance | $6,225,044 | | Hypothetical Change: | | | +50 bps Interest Rates | 1,728 | | -50 bps Interest Rates | (1,742) | | +10% Equity Market Prices | (1,315) | | -10% Equity Market Prices | 635 | | 1% Lower Annual Equity Growth | 7,196 | | 95% of Expected Mortality | (53,273) | | 105% of Expected Mortality | 52,461 | | 90% of Expected Surrenders | 23,413 | | 110% of Expected Surrenders | (22,919) | Note: Hypothetical changes to the interest-sensitive life additional liability for annuitization, death, or other insurance benefits balance do not reflect the impact of related hedges. Embedded Derivatives in Policy Liabilities and Funds Withheld Global Atlantic's fixed-indexed annuity, variable annuity, and indexed universal life products contain equity-indexed features, which are considered embedded derivatives and are required to be measured at fair value. Global Atlantic calculates the embedded derivative as the present value of future projected benefits in excess of the projected guaranteed benefits, using an option budget as the indexed account value growth rate. In addition, the fair value of the embedded derivative is reduced to reflect instrument specific credit risk on Global Atlantic's obligation (that is, Global Atlantic's own credit risk). Changes in interest rates, future index credits, instrument-specific credit risk, projected withdrawal and surrender activity, and mortality on fixed-indexed annuity and interest-sensitive life products can have a significant impact on the value of the embedded derivative. Valuation of Embedded Derivatives – Fixed-Indexed Annuities Fixed-indexed annuity contracts allow the policyholder to elect a fixed interest rate of return or a market indexed strategy where interest credited is based on the performance of an index, such as the S&P 500 Index, or other indexes. The market indexed strategy is an embedded derivative, similar to a call option. The fair value of the embedded derivative is computed as the present value of benefits attributable to the excess of the projected policy contract values over the projected minimum guaranteed contract values. The projections of policy contract values are based on assumptions for future policy growth, which include assumptions for expected index credits, future equity option costs, volatility, interest rates, and policyholder behavior. The projections of minimum guaranteed contract values include the same assumptions for policyholder behavior as are used to project policy contract values. The embedded derivative cash flows are discounted using a risk-free interest rate increased by instrument-specific credit risk tied to Global Atlantic's own credit rating. Valuation of Embedded Derivatives – Interest-Sensitive Life Products Interest-sensitive life products allow a policyholder’s account value to grow based on the performance of certain equity indexes, which results in an embedded derivative similar to a call option. The embedded derivative related to the index is bifurcated from the host contract and measured at fair value. The valuation of the embedded derivative is the present value of future projected benefits in excess of the projected guaranteed benefits, using the option budget as the indexed account value growth rate and the guaranteed interest rate as the guaranteed account value growth rate. Present values are based on discount rate curves determined at the valuation date or issue date as well as assumed lapse and mortality rates. The discount rate equals the forecast treasury rate increased by instrument-specific credit risk tied to Global Atlantic’s own credit rating. Changes in discount rates and other assumptions such as spreads and/or option budgets can have a substantial impact on the embedded derivative. Valuation of Embedded Derivatives in Modified Coinsurance or Funds Withheld Global Atlantic's reinsurance agreements include modified coinsurance and coinsurance with funds withheld arrangements that include terms that require payment by the ceding company of a principal amount plus a return that is based on a proportion of the ceding company’s return on a designated portfolio of assets. Because the return on the funds withheld receivable or payable is not clearly and closely related to the host insurance contract, these contracts are deemed to contain embedded derivatives, which are measured at fair value. Global Atlantic is exposed to both the interest rate and credit risk of the assets. Changes in discount rates and other assumptions can have a significant impact on this embedded derivative. The fair value of the embedded derivatives is included in the funds withheld receivable at interest and funds withheld payable at interest line items on our consolidated statement of financial condition. The change in the fair value of the embedded derivatives is recorded in net investment-related gains (losses) in the consolidated statement of operations. As of March 31, 2026, the embedded derivative liability balance totaled $7.0 billion for fixed-indexed annuities, and $434.6 million for interest-sensitive life. The increase (decrease) to the embedded derivatives on fixed-indexed annuity and indexed universal life as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates, credit spreads, and equity market prices are summarized in the table below. This sensitivity considers the direct effect of such changes only and not changes in any other assumptions used in or items considered in the measurement of such balances. _As of March 31, 2026_ | ($ in thousands) | Fixed-Indexed Annuities | Interest Sensitive Life | | --- | --- | --- | | Balance | $7,037,204 | $434,567 | | Hypothetical Change: | | | | +50 bps Interest Rates | (106,516) | (4,695) | | -50 bps Interest Rates | 111,831 | 4,889 | | +50 bps Credit Spreads | (136,153) | (4,695) | | -50 bps Credit Spreads | 141,010 | 4,889 | | +10% Equity Market Prices | 781,693 | 36,893 | | -10% Equity Market Prices | (718,536) | (63,296) | Note: Hypothetical changes to the market risk benefits liability balance do not reflect the impact of related hedges. As of March 31, 2026, the embedded derivative balance for modified coinsurance or funds withheld arrangements was a $2.6 billion net asset ($60.0 million in funds withheld receivables at interest, and $(2.6) billion in funds withheld payable at interest). The increase (decrease) to the embedded derivatives on fixed-indexed annuity and interest-sensitive life products as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates and investment credit spreads are summarized in the table below. This sensitivity considers the direct effect of such changes only and not changes in any other assumptions used in or items considered in the measurement of such balances. _As of March 31, 2026_ | ($ in thousands) | Embedded Derivative on Funds Withheld Receivable | Embedded Derivative on Funds Withheld Payable | | --- | --- | --- | | Balance | $60,028 | $(2,555,171) | | Hypothetical Change: | | | | +50 bps Interest Rates | (4,152) | (1,434,048) | | -50 bps Interest Rates | 9,127 | 1,519,163 | | +50 bps Investment Credit Spreads | (42,276) | (1,495,984) | | -50 bps Investment Credit Spreads | 42,276 | 1,581,099 | Note: Hypothetical changes to the funds withheld receivable and payable embedded derivative balances do not reflect the impact of related hedges or trading assets which back the funds withheld at interest.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. We believe there were no material changes to our market risks during the three months ended March 31, 2026. For a discussion of our market risks in general, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. In addition, for a discussion of current risks, uncertainties, and other market and economic conditions, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Business Environment." ## ITEM 4. 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 the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and the Chief 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 assurances of achieving the desired control objectives. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Co- Chief Executive Officers and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026. Based upon that evaluation, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting No changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2026, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. PART II — OTHER INFORMATION ## ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. For a discussion of KKR's legal proceedings, see the section entitled "Legal Proceedings" appearing in Note 24 "Commitments and Contingencies" in our financial statements included elsewhere in this report, which is incorporated herein by reference. ## ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS. Other than as set forth in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations— Business Environment" in this report, there were no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report. ## ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS Share Repurchases in the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 Under our current share repurchase program, KKR is authorized to repurchase its common stock from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing, manner, price and amount of any common stock repurchases will be determined by KKR in its discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. KKR expects that the program, which has no expiration date, will continue to be in effect until the maximum approved dollar amount has been used. The program does not require KKR to repurchase any specific number of shares of common stock, and the program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time. In addition to the repurchases of common stock described above, the repurchase program is used for the retirement (by cash settlement or the payment of tax withholding amounts upon net settlement) of equity awards issued pursuant to our Equity Incentive Plan representing the right to receive shares of common stock. As of May 1, 2026, there is approximately $122 million remaining under KKR's share repurchase program. The table below sets forth the information with respect to repurchases made by or on behalf of KKR & Co. Inc. or any "affiliated purchaser" (as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Exchange Act) of our common stock for the periods presented. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, 2,173,970 shares of common stock were repurchased, and 578 equity awards were retired. **Issuer Purchases of Common Stock** _(amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)_ | Line item | Total Number of Shares Purchased | Average Price Paid Per Share | Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs | Approximate Dollar Value of Shares that May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs (1) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Month #1(January 1, 2026 to January 31, 2026) | — | $— | — | $439,178 | | Month #2(February 1, 2026 to February 28, 2026) | 21,598 | $92.60 | 21,598 | $437,133 | | Month #3(March 1, 2026 to March 31, 2026) | 2,152,372 | $87.92 | 2,152,372 | $247,877 | | Total through March 31, 2026 | 2,173,970 | | 2,173,970 | $247,877 | (1) Our existing share repurchase program was announced in April 2024. In March 2026, the share repurchase program was amended such that when the remaining available amount under the share repurchase program becomes $50 million or less, the total available amount under the share repurchase program will automatically increase by an additional $500 million to the then remaining available amount (the “Share Repurchase Program Increase Threshold”). As of May 1, 2026, there was approximately $122 million remaining under the program. Any additional increases to the total available amount after the Share Repurchase Program Increase Threshold is reached would require a separate approval by the Board of Directors of KKR & Co. Inc. The repurchase program does not have an expiration date. Unregistered Sales of Equity in the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 On March 30, 2026, we issued 15,105 shares of KKR & Co. Inc. common stock to one of our fund investors in connection with arrangements related to the fees paid by such fund investor with respect to its investments. The shares were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, exempting issuances by an issuer not involving a public offering. ## ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.

We believe these factors include those described in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (our "Annual Report"). These factors should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this report and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. CERTAIN TERMS USED IN THIS REPORT In this report, references to "KKR," "we," "us," and "our" refer to KKR & Co. Inc. and its subsidiaries, including The Global Atlantic Financial Group LLC ("TGAFG" and, together with its insurance companies and other subsidiaries, "Global Atlantic"), unless the context requires otherwise. References to the “Series I preferred stockholder” or “KKR Management” are to KKR Management LLP, the holder of the sole outstanding share of our Series I preferred stock. KKR Management is owned by our senior employees, including Mr. Henry Kravis and Mr. George Roberts (our "Co-Founders"). References to “carry pool participants” are to our current and former employees who hold interests in our “carry pool,” which refers to the carried interest generated by KKR’s business that is allocated to KKR Associates Holdings L.P. (“Associates Holdings”), in which carry pool participants are limited partners. Associates Holdings is currently not a subsidiary of KKR & Co. Inc. KKR Group Partnership L.P. ("KKR Group Partnership") is the intermediate holding company that owns the entirety of KKR’s business. Unless otherwise indicated, references to equity interests in KKR’s business, or to percentage interests in KKR’s business, reflect the aggregate equity interests in KKR Group Partnership, and are net of amounts that have been allocated to carry pool participants and any other holders of minority interests in KKR Group Partnership. References to a “KKR Group Partnership Unit” refer to one Class A partner interest in KKR Group Partnership for periods on and after January 1, 2020. “Exchangeable securities” refers to securities that have the right to acquire KKR Group Partnership Units and to exchange them for our shares of common stock. As of the date of this report, our only outstanding exchangeable securities are (i) restricted holdings units issued through KKR Holdings II L.P. ("KKR Holdings II"), which are issued under the Amended and Restated KKR & Co. Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2019 Equity Incentive Plan"), and (ii) restricted holdings units issued through KKR Holdings III L.P. ("KKR Holdings III"), which are not issued under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. In the future, we may issue securities other than restricted holdings units that may constitute exchangeable securities. On October 8, 2021, KKR entered into a Reorganization Agreement (the "Reorganization Agreement") with KKR Holdings L.P. (“KKR Holdings”), KKR Management, Associates Holdings, and the other parties thereto. Pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, the parties agreed to undertake a series of integrated transactions to effect a number of transformative structural and governance changes, including (a) the acquisition by KKR of KKR Holdings and all of the KKR Group Partnership Units held by it (which as noted below was completed), (b) the future elimination of voting control by KKR Management and the Series I preferred stock held by it, (c) the future establishment of voting rights for all common stock on a one vote per share basis, including with respect to the election of directors, and (d) the future control of the carry pool by KKR. On May 31, 2022, KKR completed the acquisition of KKR Holdings and the 258.3 million KKR Group Partnership Units held by it, and in exchange KKR issued and delivered 266.8 million shares of common stock to the limited partners of KKR Holdings. On the "Sunset Date" (which will occur no later than December 31, 2026), KKR will cancel the Series I preferred stock, establish voting rights for all common stock on a one vote per share basis, and acquire control of the carry pool. For more information about the Reorganization Agreement, see Note 1 "Organization" in our financial statements included in this report. KKR’s asset management business is conducted by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. and various other subsidiaries of KKR & Co. Inc. other than Global Atlantic. KKR’s insurance business is operated by Global Atlantic, in which KKR acquired a majority controlling interest on February 1, 2021 and of which KKR acquired all the remaining equity interests in Global Atlantic on January 2, 2024 (the “2024 GA Acquisition”). KJR Management ("KJRM") is a Japanese real estate asset manager, which KKR acquired on April 28, 2022. References to our "funds," "vehicles," or "investment vehicles" refer to a wide array of investment funds, vehicles, and accounts that are advised, managed, or sponsored by one or more subsidiaries of KKR, including collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs"), certain operating companies, and business development companies (each, a "BDC"), unless the context requires otherwise. These references do not include the investment funds, vehicles, or accounts of any hedge fund partnership or any other third-party asset manager with which we have formed a strategic partnership or have acquired a minority ownership interest. Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “fund investors” or "investors in our investment vehicles" refers to the third-party investors in these funds and investment vehicles. References to “strategic investor partnerships” refers to separately managed accounts with certain investors, which typically have investment periods longer than our traditional funds and typically provide for investments across different investment strategies. References to “hedge fund partnerships” refers to strategic partnerships with third-party hedge fund managers in which KKR owns a minority stake. Unless otherwise indicated, references in this report to our outstanding common stock on a fully exchanged and diluted basis reflect (i) actual shares of common stock outstanding, (ii) shares of common stock issuable pursuant to equity awards actually granted pursuant to the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, and (iii) shares of common stock issuable from exchangeable securities, including vested partnership interests in KKR Holdings III. Our outstanding common stock on a fully exchanged and diluted basis does not include shares of common stock available for issuance pursuant to the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan for which equity awards have not yet been granted or any shares of common stock into which all outstanding shares of Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible. In this report, the term "GAAP" refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We disclose certain financial measures in this report that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP, including Adjusted Net Income, Total Asset Management Segment Revenues, Total Segment Earnings, Total Investing Earnings, Total Operating Earnings, FRE, and Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings. We believe that providing these performance measures on a supplemental basis to our GAAP results is helpful to stockholders in assessing the overall performance of KKR's businesses. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for similar financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We caution readers that these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the calculations of other investment managers, and as a result, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other investment managers. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, where applicable, are included under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Segment Balance Sheet Measures —Reconciliations to GAAP Measures." This report also uses the terms AUM, FPAUM, and capital invested. You should note that our calculations of these and other operating metrics may differ from the calculations of other investment managers and, as a result, may not be comparable to similar metrics presented by other investment managers. These non-GAAP and operating metrics are defined in the section "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Key Segment and Non-GAAP Performance Measures—Other Terms and Capital Metrics." The use of any defined term in this report to mean more than one entity, person, security, or other item collectively is solely for convenience of reference and in no way implies that such entities, persons, securities, or other items are one indistinguishable group. For example, notwithstanding the use of the defined terms "KKR," "we" and "our" in this report to refer to KKR & Co. Inc. and its subsidiaries, each subsidiary of KKR & Co. Inc. is a standalone legal entity that is separate and distinct from KKR & Co. Inc. and any of its other subsidiaries. Any KKR entity (including any Global Atlantic entity) referenced herein is responsible for its own financial, contractual, and legal obligations. Additionally, references to "including" are for the purpose of illustration and shall be read to mean "including without limitation" unless the context explicitly requires otherwise.
