WASHINGTON--()--Global alternative asset manager The Carlyle Group L.P. (NASDAQ: CG), today reported its unaudited third quarter 2012 results.

David M. Rubenstein, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Carlyle, said, “Every component of the Carlyle engine is running strong. Third quarter fundraising was solid, our investment pace was active, portfolio valuations were up and we generated substantial cash returns for our fund investors. These returns drove robust distributable earnings for the third quarter. Additionally, this quarter we raised $3.4 billion in fresh capital, reflective of strong investor confidence in our global model and investment performance.”

William E. Conway, Jr., Co-Chief Executive Officer of Carlyle, said, “Our purpose is to invest wisely and create value for our fund investors, which in turn benefits our public investors, and we worked hard at each this quarter. Our active third quarter is a culmination of several factors, including the scope of our global operation, various tactical advantages we had, strong capital markets and many months and years of work. We believe that the United States, Europe and emerging markets – from Brazil to Turkey to China – are great places to invest right now.”

U.S. GAAP results for Q3 2012 included income before provision for income taxes of $603 million and net income attributable to the public unitholders through The Carlyle Group L.P. of $19 million, or net income per common unit of $0.40 on a fully diluted basis. For Q3 2011, Carlyle was still a private partnership, and the net loss before provision for income taxes was $(619) million. For Q3 2012, total revenue was $859 million, compared with revenue of $(60) million in Q3 2011. Total balance sheet assets were $30.0 billion as of September 30, 2012 compared with $24.7 billion as of December 31, 2011.

Third Quarter Distribution

The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly distribution of $0.16 per common unit to holders of record at the close of business on November 19, 2012, payable on November 30, 2012. Since the pricing of its IPO on May 2, 2012, Carlyle has announced $0.27 per common unit in distributions to public unitholders.

Carlyle intends to distribute $0.16 per full quarter to common unitholders for each of the first three quarters of the calendar year, and to announce a year-end catch-up distribution in its fourth quarter earnings release. As noted in Carlyle’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, Carlyle intends to make the year-end catch-up distribution in an amount that, taken together with the other quarterly distributions, represents substantially all of its Distributable Earnings in excess of the amount determined by the General Partner to be necessary or appropriate to provide for the conduct of its business, to make appropriate investments in its business and its funds or to comply with applicable law or any of its financing agreements. Carlyle anticipates that the aggregate amount of its distributions for most years will be less than its total Distributable Earnings for that year. The declaration and payment of any distribution is at the sole discretion of the General Partner, which may change the distribution policy at any time.

Carlyle evaluates the performance of its business on four key metrics, known as the Carlyle engine (funds raised, equity invested, fund valuations and realized proceeds for fund investors). The table below highlights the results of those metrics for Q3 2012, as well as on a year-to-date (YTD) and last twelve months (LTM) basis.

Carlyle All Segment Results for Third Quarter 2012

  • Distributable Earnings (DE): $206 million
    • Pre-tax Distributable Earnings of $206 million equated to $0.63 per common unit on a post-tax basis. Distributable Earnings increased 79% from Q2 2012 primarily due to period-over-period changes in our realized net performance fees. On an LTM basis, Distributable Earnings are $748 million compared to $752 million over the prior 12-month period.
    • Fee-Related Earnings of $46 million increased 28% from Q2 2012 due to declines in operating expenses. On an LTM basis, Fee-Related Earnings declined 14% compared to the prior 12-month period.
    • Realized Net Performance Fees of $156 million increased 106% from Q2 2012. For the current quarter, our revenues were positively impacted by public equity exits in China Pacific Life, Kinder Morgan, Dunkin Brands, and SS&C, as well as multiple private company sales. On an LTM basis, realized net performance fees are $591 million, up 7% from the prior 12-month period.
    • Realized Investment Income of $5 million increased slightly from Q2 2012.
  • Economic Net Income (ENI): $219 million
    • Economic Net Income of $219 million in Q3 2012 compared to an Economic Net Loss of ($57) million in Q2 2012. On an after-tax basis, Carlyle generated $0.66 in ENI per unit. On an LTM basis, ENI decreased 34% compared to the prior 12-month period due to significant portfolio appreciation over the period following the financial crisis.
    • ENI was positively impacted in Q3 2012 by 3% appreciation in Carlyle’s carry fund portfolio, which excludes structured credit, hedge funds and Fund of Funds Solutions vehicles. The fund appreciation was driven by increases in Buyout, Real Estate and Global Market Strategies carry funds, offset by a decline in Energy funds, and flat performance in Growth funds.
    • The public carry fund portfolio increased 8% in Q3 2012 while our private carry fund portfolio increased 1%.

(1) The data presented herein that provides "inception to date" performance results of our segments relates to the period following the formation of the first fund within each segment. For our Corporate Private Equity segment our first fund was formed in 1990. For our Real Assets segment our first fund was formed in 1997. For our Global Market Strategies segment, CSP II was formed in 2007.
(2) Represents the original cost of all capital called for investments since inception of the fund.
(3) Represents all realized proceeds combined with remaining fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest.
(4) Multiple of invested capital ("MOIC") represents total fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest, divided by cumulative invested capital.
(5)An investment is considered realized when the investment fund has completely exited, and ceases to own an interest in, the investment. An investment is considered partially realized when the total amount of proceeds received in respect of such investment, including dividends, interest or other distributions and/or return of capital, represents at least 85% of invested capital and such investment is not yet fully realized. Because part of our value creation strategy involves pursuing best exit alternatives, we believe information regarding Realized/Partially Realized MOIC and Gross IRR, when considered together with the other investment performance metrics presented, provides investors with meaningful information regarding our investment performance by removing the impact of investments where significant realization activity has not yet occurred. Realized/Partially Realized MOIC and Gross IRR have limitations as measures of investment performance, and should not be considered in isolation. Such limitations include the fact that these measures do not include the performance of earlier stage and other investments that do not satisfy the criteria provided above. The exclusion of such investments will have a positive impact on Realized/Partially Realized MOIC and Gross IRR in instances when the MOIC and Gross IRR in respect of such investments are less than the aggregate MOIC and Gross IRR. Our measurements of Realized/Partially Realized MOIC and Gross IRR may not be comparable to those of other companies that use similarly titled measures. We do not present Realized/Partially Realized performance information separately for funds that are still in the investment period because of the relatively insignificant level of realizations for funds of this type. However, to the extent such funds have had realizations, they are included in the Realized/Partially Realized performance information presented for Total Corporate Private Equity and Total Real Assets.
(6) Fully Invested funds are past the expiration date of the investment period as defined in the respective limited partnership agreement. In instances where a successor fund has had its first capital call, the predecessor fund is categorized as fully invested.
(7) Gross Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") represents the annualized IRR for the period indicated on Limited Partner invested capital based on contributions, distributions and unrealized value before management fees, expenses and carried interest.
(8) Net Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") represents the annualized IRR for the period indicated on Limited Partner invested capital based on contributions, distributions and unrealized value after management fees, expenses and carried interest.
(9) Aggregate includes the following funds: CP I, CMG, CVP I, CVP II, CUSGF III, CEVP, CETP I, CAVP I, CAVP II, CAGP III and Mexico.
(10) Includes co-investments, prefund investments and certain other stand-alone investments arranged by us.
(11) Aggregate includes the following funds: MENA, CSABF, CSSAF, CETP II, CBPF, and CEOF I.
(12) For purposes of aggregation, funds that report in foreign currency have been converted to U.S. dollars at the reporting period spot rate.
(13) Aggregate includes the following funds: CRP I, CRP II, CAREP I, ENERGY I and RENEW I.
(14) Aggregate includes the following funds: CAREP II and CRCP I.
(15) Represents the original cost of investments net of investment level recallable proceeds which is adjusted to reflect recyclability of invested capital for the purpose of calculating the fund MOIC.
(16) Includes private equity and mezzanine primary fund investments, secondary fund investments and co-investments originated by the AlpInvest team. Excluded from the performance information shown are a) investments that were not originated by AlpInvest and b) Direct Investments, which was spun off from AlpInvest in 2005. As of September 30, 2012, these excluded investments represent $0.7 billion of AUM.
(17) Fully Committed funds are past the expiration date of the commitment period as defined in the respective limited partnership agreement.
(18) To exclude the impact of FX, all foreign currency cash flows have been converted to Euro at the reporting period spot rate.
(19) Aggregate includes Main Fund I - Co-Investments, Main Fund I - Mezzanine Investments, AlpInvest CleanTech Funds and funds which are not included as part of a main fund.
(20) Represents the U.S. dollar equivalent balance translated at the spot rate as of period end.

Non-GAAP Financial Information and Other Key Terms

Non-GAAP Financial Information

Carlyle discloses in this press release the following financial measures that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America:

  • Economic net income or “ENI,” represents segment net income which excludes the impact of income taxes, acquisition-related items including amortization of acquired intangibles and contingent consideration taking the form of earn-outs, charges associated with equity-based compensation issued in Carlyle’s initial public offering or future acquisitions, corporate actions and infrequently occurring or unusual events. Carlyle believes the exclusion of these items provides investors with a meaningful indication of its core operating performance. For segment reporting purposes, revenues and expenses, and accordingly segment net income, are presented on a basis that deconsolidates certain Carlyle funds, related co-investment entities and CLOs (referred to collectively as the “Consolidated Funds”) that Carlyle consolidates in its combined and consolidated financial statements pursuant to U.S. GAAP. For periods prior to its Initial Public Offering, ENI also reflects pro forma compensation expense for compensation to senior Carlyle professionals, which Carlyle has accounted for as distributions from equity rather than as employee compensation for periods prior to its Initial Public Offering. Total Segment ENI equals the aggregate of ENI for all segments. ENI is evaluated regularly by management in making resource deployment decisions and in assessing performance of Carlyle’s four segments and for compensation. Carlyle believes that reporting ENI is helpful to understanding its business and that investors should review the same supplemental financial measure that management uses to analyze its segment performance.
  • Fee Related Earnings is a component of ENI and is used to measure Carlyle’s operating profitability exclusive of performance fees, investment income from investments in Carlyle’s funds and performance fee-related compensation. Accordingly, Fee Related Earnings reflect the ability of the business to cover direct base compensation and operating expenses from fee revenues other than performance fees. For periods prior to its Initial Public Offering, Fee Related Earnings also reflects pro forma compensation expense for compensation to senior Carlyle professionals, which Carlyle has accounted for as distributions from equity rather than as employee compensation for periods prior to its Initial Public Offering. Fee Related Earnings are reported as part of Carlyle’s segment results. Carlyle uses Fee Related Earnings from operations to measure its profitability from fund management fees.
  • Distributable Earnings is a component of ENI representing total ENI less net performance fees and investment income plus realized net performance fees and realized investment income. Distributable Earnings is intended to show the amount of net realized earnings without the effects of consolidation of the Consolidated Funds. Distributable Earnings is derived from Carlyle’s segment reported results and is an additional measure to assess performance and amounts potentially available for distribution from Carlyle Holdings to its equity holders.

Income before provision for income taxes is the GAAP financial measure most comparable to ENI, Fee Related Earnings and Distributable Earnings. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to income before provision for income taxes are included within this press release. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Other Key Terms

Assets under management” or “AUM” refers to the assets managed by Carlyle. AUM equals the sum of the following:

(a) the fair value of the capital invested in Carlyle carry funds, co-investment vehicles and fund of funds vehicles plus the capital that Carlyle is entitled to call from investors in those funds and vehicles (including Carlyle commitments to those funds and vehicles and those of senior Carlyle professionals and employees) pursuant to the terms of their capital commitments to those funds and vehicles;

(b) the amount of aggregate collateral balance at par of Carlyle’s collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs“) and the reference portfolio notional amount of Carlyle’s synthetic collateralized loan obligations (“synthetic CLOs“); and

(c) the net asset value (pre-redemptions and subscriptions) of Carlyle’s long/short credit, emerging markets, multi-product macroeconomic and other hedge funds and certain structured credit funds.

AUM includes certain energy and renewable resources funds that Carlyle jointly advises with Riverstone Investment Group L.L.C. (“Riverstone”). In addition, Carlyle’s calculation of AUM (but not fee-earning AUM) includes uncalled commitments to, and the fair value of invested capital in, investment funds from Carlyle and its personnel, regardless of whether such commitments or invested capital are subject to fees.

Available capital,” commonly known as “dry powder,” for Carlyle’s carry funds refers to the amount of capital commitments available to be called for investments. Amounts previously called may be added back to available capital following certain distributions.

Carlyle funds,” “our funds” and “our investment funds” refer to the investment funds and vehicles advised by Carlyle.

Carry funds” refers to those investment funds that Carlyle advises, including the buyout funds, growth capital funds, real asset funds and distressed debt and mezzanine funds (but excluding Carlyle’s structured credit funds, hedge funds and fund of funds vehicles), where Carlyle receives a special residual allocation of income, which is referred to as a “carried interest,” in the event that specified investment returns are achieved by the fund.

Expired available capital” occurs when a fund has passed the investment and follow-on periods and can no longer invest capital into new or existing deals. Any remaining available capital, typically a result of either recycled distributions or specific reserves established for the follow-on period that are not drawn, can only be called for fees and expenses and is therefore removed from the total AUM calculation.

Fee-earning assets under management” or “Fee-earning AUM” refers to the assets managed by Carlyle from which Carlyle derives recurring fund management fees. Fee-earning AUM generally equals the sum of:

(a) for carry funds and certain co-investment vehicles where the investment period has not expired, the amount of limited partner capital commitments and for fund of funds vehicles, the amount of external investor capital commitments during the commitment period;

(b) for substantially all carry funds and certain co-investment vehicles where the investment period has expired, the remaining amount of limited partner invested capital;

(c) the gross amount of aggregate collateral balance at par, adjusted for defaulted or discounted collateral, of Carlyle’s CLOs and the reference portfolio notional amount of Carlyle’s synthetic CLOs;

(d) the external investor portion of the net asset value (pre-redemptions and subscriptions) of Carlyle’s long/short credit, emerging markets, multi-product macroeconomic and other hedge funds and certain structured credit funds; and

(e) for fund of funds vehicles and certain carry funds where the investment period has expired, the lower of cost or fair value of invested capital.

Fee-earning AUM includes certain energy and renewable resources funds that Carlyle jointly advises with Riverstone.

For Carlyle’s carry funds, co-investment vehicles and fund of funds vehicles, total AUM includes the fair value of the capital invested, whereas fee-earning AUM includes the amount of capital commitments or the remaining amount of invested capital at cost, depending on whether the investment period for the fund has expired. As such, fee-earning AUM may be greater than total AUM when the aggregate fair value of the remaining investments is less than the cost of those investments.

Fund of funds vehicles” refer to those funds, accounts and vehicles advised by AlpInvest Partners B.V., formerly known as AlpInvest Partners N.V.

Net performance fees” refers to the performance fees from Carlyle funds and fund of funds vehicles net of the portion allocated to Carlyle investment professionals which is reflected as performance fee related compensation expense.

Performance fees” consist principally of carried interest from carry funds and fund of funds vehicles and incentive fees or allocations from certain of our Global Market Strategies funds. Carlyle is generally entitled to a 20% allocation (or 1.8% to 10% in the case of most of the fund of funds vehicles) of the net realized income or gain as a carried interest after returning the invested capital, the allocation of preferred returns of generally 8% to 9% and the return of certain fund costs (subject to catch-up provisions as set forth in the fund limited partnership agreement). Carried interest revenue, which is a component of performance fees in Carlyle’s combined and consolidated financial statements, is recognized by Carlyle upon appreciation of the valuation of the applicable funds’ investments above certain return hurdles as set forth in each respective partnership agreement and is based on the amount that would be due to Carlyle pursuant to the fund partnership agreement at each period end as if the funds were liquidated at such date.

Realized net performance fees” refers to the realized performance fees from Carlyle funds and fund of funds vehicles net of the portion allocated to Carlyle investment professionals which is reflected as realized performance fee related compensation expense.
