Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Distributable Earnings financial
"Distributable Earnings (DE) of $1.7 billion ($1.32/share) in the quarter"
Distributable earnings are the portion of a company’s reported profits that management determines is safe to pay out to shareholders after accounting for cash needs, required reserves, and non-cash bookkeeping items. Think of it like the money left in your household budget after paying bills and putting aside savings — it shows what can realistically be handed out as dividends or distributions and helps investors judge how sustainable and reliable future payouts may be.
Net Accrued Performance Revenues financial
"Net Accrued Performance Revenues of $7.3 billion ($5.84/share)"
MOIC financial
"Total Investments; MOIC (c)"
MOIC (Multiple on Invested Capital) is a simple ratio that shows how many times an investor’s original money has been returned — for example, 2.0x means you got back twice what you put in. It matters to investors because it gives a clear snapshot of total cash outcome compared with the initial stake, like checking how many apples you got back for each seed planted, though it does not account for how long the investment took to produce that return.

Investment Records as of September 30, 2026 - Notes

 

  (a)

Excludes investment vehicles where Blackstone does not earn fees.

 

 

  (b)

Available Capital represents total investable capital commitments, including side-by-side, adjusted for certain expenses and expired or recallable capital and may include leverage, less invested capital. This amount is not reduced by outstanding commitments to investments.

 

 

  (c)

Multiple of Invested Capital (“MOIC”) represents carrying value, before management fees, expenses and Performance Revenues, divided by invested capital.

 

 

  (d)

Unless otherwise indicated, Net Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”) represents the annualized inception to September 30, 2026 IRR on total invested capital based on realized proceeds and unrealized value, as applicable, after management fees, expenses and Performance Revenues. IRRs are calculated using actual timing of limited partner cash flows. Initial inception date of cash flows may differ from the Investment Period Beginning Date.

 

 

  (e)

The 12% Realized Net IRR and 12% Total Net IRR exclude investors that opted out of the Hilton investment opportunity. Overall BREP International I-II performance reflects a 10% Realized Net IRR and a 10% Total Net IRR.

 

 

  (f)

BREP Co-Investment represents co-investment capital raised for various BREP investments. The Net IRR reflected is calculated by aggregating each co-investment’s realized proceeds and unrealized value, as applicable, after management fees, expenses and Performance Revenues.

 

 

  (g)

BREDS High-Yield represents the flagship real estate debt drawdown funds only.

 

 

  (h)

Blackstone Core Equity Partners is a core private equity strategy which invests with a more modest risk profile and longer hold period than traditional private equity.

 

 

  (i)

Strategic Partners’ Unrealized Investment Value, Realized Investment Value, Total Investment Value, Total MOIC and Total Net IRRs are reported on a three-month lag and therefore do not include the impact of economic and market activities in the current quarter. Realizations are treated as returns of capital until fully recovered and therefore Unrealized and Realized MOICs and Realized Net IRRs are not applicable. Committed Capital and Available Capital are presented as of the current quarter.

 

 

  (j)

European Senior Debt II IRR represents the blended return across the commingled levered and unlevered funds within the strategy. The total net returns were 12% and 7%, respectively, for the levered and unlevered funds of the strategy.

 

 

The returns presented herein represent those of the applicable Blackstone Funds and not those of Blackstone Inc. n/m represents “not meaningful” generally due to the limited time since initial investment. n/a represents “not applicable”. Notes continue on page 22.

Fund or fund program returns are not representative of the return experienced by any particular vehicle, investor or share class. Functional currency equivalent returns are included when calculating the blended return for funds or fund programs that have share classes that are denominated in a currency other than a fund’s or fund program’s functional currency and that are not hedged. The return methodology of the separate individual share classes presented matches that of the respective fund or fund program and represents the Total Net Return of a respective fund’s or fund program’s largest share class, with performance varying by vehicle and/or share class across a fund or fund program.

 

  (p)

BPP represents the aggregate Total AUM and Total Net Return of the BPP Platform, which comprises over 30 fund, co-investment and separately managed account vehicles. It includes certain vehicles managed as part of the BPP Platform but not classified as Perpetual Capital. As of September 30, 2026, these vehicles represented $4.5 billion of Total AUM. Total Net Return represents the annualized IRR on total invested capital from the inception date to September 30, 2026 based on realized proceeds and unrealized value, as applicable, after management fees, expenses and Performance Revenues (but before taxes or withholdings incurred by the limited partners directly or indirectly), and adds back the effect of any tax distributions paid for carried interest already reflected in returns.

  (r)

Blackstone GP Stakes (“BXGP”) represents the aggregate Total AUM and Total Net Return of BSCH I and II funds that invest as part of the Secondaries GP Stakes strategy, which targets minority investments in the general partners of private equity and other private-market alternative asset management firms globally. As of September 30, 2026, including vehicles that are not classified as Perpetual Capital and co-investment vehicles that do not pay fees, BXGP Total AUM was $13.2 billion. Total Net Return represents the annualized IRR on total invested capital from the inception date to September 30, 2026 based on realized proceeds and unrealized value, as applicable, after management fees, expenses and Performance Revenues (but before taxes or withholdings incurred by the limited partners directly or indirectly), and adds back the effect of any tax distributions paid for carried interest already reflected in returns. IRRs are calculated using actual timing of investor cash flows and the initial date of certain cash flows may differ from the inception date.

 

  (s)

BIP represents the aggregate Total AUM and Total Net Return of infrastructure-focused funds and co-investment vehicles for institutional investors with a primary focus on the U.S. and Europe. As of September 30, 2026, including co-investment vehicles that do not pay fees, BIP Total AUM was $91.9 billion. Total Net Return represents the annualized IRR on total invested capital from the inception date to September 30, 2026 based on realized proceeds and unrealized value, as applicable, after management fees, expenses and Performance Revenues (but before taxes or withholdings incurred by the limited partners directly or indirectly), and adds back the effect of any tax distributions paid for carried interest already reflected in returns. IRRs are calculated using actual timing of investor cash flows and the initial date of certain cash flows may differ from the inception date.

 

  (t)

The BXSL Total AUM and Total Net Return are presented as of June 30, 2026. BXSL Total Net Return reflects the annualized change in NAV per share from the inception date to June 30, 2026, plus distributions per share (assuming dividends and distributions are reinvested in accordance with BXSL’s dividend reinvestment plan) divided by the beginning NAV per share.

 

  (u)

For BCRED and ECRED, Total AUM reflects gross asset value plus amounts borrowed or available to be borrowed under certain credit facilities. BCRED’s and ECRED’s net asset values as of September 30, 2026 were $41.1 billion and €2.6 billion, respectively.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES – NOTES

 

Note: See pages 36-38, Definitions and Dividend Policy.

 

(a)

This adjustment removes Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items, which are excluded from Blackstone’s segment presentation. Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items arise from corporate actions including acquisitions, divestitures, Blackstone’s initial public offering, and non-recurring gains, losses, or other charges, if any. They consist primarily of equity-based compensation charges, gains and losses on contingent consideration arrangements, changes in the balance of the Tax Receivable Agreements resulting from a change in tax law or similar event, transaction costs, gains or losses associated with these corporate actions, and non-recurring gains, losses or other charges that affect period-to-period comparability and are not reflective of Blackstone’s operational performance.

(b)

This adjustment removes the amortization of transaction-related intangibles, which are excluded from Blackstone’s segment presentation.

(c)

This adjustment reverses the effect of consolidating Blackstone Funds, which are excluded from Blackstone’s segment presentation. This adjustment includes the elimination of Blackstone’s interest in these funds and the removal of amounts associated with the ownership of Blackstone consolidated operating partnerships held by non-controlling interests.

(d)

This adjustment removes Unrealized Performance Revenues on a segment basis. The Segment Adjustment represents the add back of performance revenues earned from consolidated Blackstone Funds which have been eliminated in consolidation.

This analysis reconciles the components of Total Segment Distributable Earnings (page 3) to their equivalent GAAP measures, reported on the Consolidated Statements of Operations (page 26). Segment basis presents revenues and expenses on a basis that deconsolidates the investment funds Blackstone manages and excludes the amortization of intangibles, the expense of equity-based awards and Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items.

(a)

Represents (1) the add back of net management fees earned from consolidated Blackstone Funds which have been eliminated in consolidation, and (2) the removal of amounts attributable to the reimbursement of certain expenses by the Blackstone Funds and certain NAV-based fee arrangements, which are presented on a gross basis under GAAP but as a reduction of Management and Advisory Fees, Net in the Total Segment measures.

(b)

Represents the add back of Performance Revenues earned from consolidated Blackstone Funds which have been eliminated in consolidation.

(c)

NOTES

 

Notes to page 4 - Investment Performance and Net Accrued Performance Revenues

 

§   The changes in carrying value, fund returns and composite returns presented throughout this presentation represent those of the applicable Blackstone Funds and not those of Blackstone.

 

§   Core+ appreciation represents a weighted average of BREIT’s per share appreciation, BEPIF’s per share appreciation, and BPP’s appreciation for the period and does not include BXDC. The returns are weighted based on the average of BREIT’s monthly net asset values, BEPIF’s monthly net asset values, and the average of BPP’s net asset value.

 

§   Throughout this presentation, Secondaries reflects Strategic Partners and GP Stakes unless otherwise indicated. Results for the Secondaries business refer to the appreciation of the Strategic Partners funds and do not include results for GP Stakes. Strategic Partners results are reported on a three-month lag from fund financial statements, which generally report underlying investments on a same-quarter basis, if available. As a result, the appreciation presented herein does not include the impact of economic and market activity in the current quarter. Current market activity is expected to affect reported results in upcoming quarters.

 

§   Throughout this presentation, Infrastructure refers to our infrastructure-focused funds, including Blackstone Infrastructure Partners’ funds (“BIP”) and Blackstone Infrastructure Strategies Fund Program (“BXINFRA”). AUM, inflows, and related metrics for Infrastructure refer to BIP and the portion of BXINFRA assets that are managed in Infrastructure. Infrastructure appreciation represents a weighted average of BIP’s appreciation and BXINFRA’s per share appreciation for the period. The returns are weighted based on the average of BIP’s quarterly net asset value and the average of BXINFRA’s monthly net asset values.

 

§   Private Credit returns include the Flagship commingled funds across the opportunistic lending, global middle market direct lending funds (including BXSL, BCRED, and ECRED strategies), stressed/distressed strategies, and non-investment grade infrastructure and asset based credit strategies. Separately managed accounts, funds with a limited number of limited partners that are not broadly marketed, inactive investment strategies, unlevered funds within a strategy that has designated levered and unlevered sleeves, and Multi-Asset Credit strategies are excluded. Liquid Credit returns include CLOs, closed-ended funds, open-ended funds and separately managed accounts. Only fee-earning funds exceeding $100 million of fair value at the beginning of each respective quarter-end are included. Funds in liquidation, funds investing primarily in investment grade corporate credit and asset-based finance are excluded. Blackstone Funds that were contributed to Blackstone Credit as part of Blackstone’s acquisition of Blackstone Credit, formerly known as GSO, in March 2008 and the pre-acquisition date performance for funds and vehicles acquired by Blackstone Credit subsequent to March 2008, are also excluded.

 

§   The Absolute Return Composite gross and net returns are based on the Multi-Asset Investing (“BXMA”) Absolute Return Composite, which includes only BXMA-managed commingled and customized multi-manager funds and accounts and does not include BXMA’s liquid solutions group, seeding, multi-strategy, and advisory (non-discretionary) platforms, except for investments by Absolute Return funds directly into those platforms. BXMA-managed funds in liquidation and, in the case of net returns, non fee-paying assets are also excluded. The funds/accounts that comprise the Absolute Return Composite are not managed within a single fund or account and are managed with different mandates. There is no guarantee that BXMA would have made the same mix of investments in a stand-alone fund/account. The Absolute Return Composite is not an investible product and, as such, the performance of the Absolute Return Composite does not represent the performance of an actual fund or account.

DEFINITIONS AND DIVIDEND POLICY

 

Blackstone discloses the following operating metrics and 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 (“non-GAAP”) in this presentation:

 

§   Segment Distributable Earnings, or “Segment DE”, is Blackstone’s segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and assess performance across Blackstone’s four segments. Segment DE represents the net realized earnings of Blackstone’s segments and is the sum of Fee Related Earnings and Net Realizations for each segment. Blackstone’s segments are presented on a basis that deconsolidates Blackstone Funds, eliminates non-controlling ownership interests in Blackstone’s consolidated operating partnerships, removes the amortization of intangible assets and removes Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items. Segment DE excludes unrealized activity and is derived from and reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes.

 

  –   Net Realizations is presented on a segment basis and is the sum of Realized Principal Investment Income and Realized Performance Revenues (which refers to Realized Performance Revenues excluding Fee Related Performance Revenues), less Realized Performance Compensation (which refers to Realized Performance Compensation excluding Fee Related Performance Compensation and Equity-Based Performance Compensation).

 

  –   Segment Revenues represent Management and Advisory Fees, Net, Fee Related Performance Revenues, Realized Performance Revenues and Realized Principal Investment Income.

 

§   Distributable Earnings, or “DE”, is derived from Blackstone’s segment reported results. DE is used to assess performance and amounts available for dividends to Blackstone shareholders, including Blackstone personnel and others who are limited partners of the Blackstone Holdings Partnerships. DE is the sum of Segment DE plus Net Interest and Dividend Income (Loss) less Taxes and Related Payables. DE excludes unrealized activity and is derived from and reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes.

 

  –   Net Interest and Dividend Income (Loss) is presented on a segment basis and is equal to Interest and Dividend Revenue less Interest Expense, adjusted for the impact of consolidation of Blackstone Funds, and interest expense associated with the Tax Receivable Agreements.

 

  –   Taxes and Related Payables represent the total GAAP tax provision adjusted to include only the current tax provision (benefit) calculated on Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes and including the payable under the Tax Receivable Agreements. Further, the current tax provision utilized when calculating Taxes and Related Payables and DE reflects the benefit of deductions available to the company on certain expense items that are excluded from the underlying calculation of Segment DE and Total Segment Distributable Earnings, such as equity-based compensation charges and certain Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items where there is a current tax provision or benefit. The economic assumptions and methodologies that impact the implied income tax provision are the same as those methodologies and assumptions used in calculating the current income tax provision for Blackstone’s consolidated statements of operations under U.S. GAAP, excluding the impact of divestitures and accrued tax contingency related liabilities or refunds which are reflected when paid or received. The payable under the Tax Receivable Agreements reflects the expected amount of tax savings generated in the period that holders of the Tax Receivable Agreements are entitled to receive in future periods. Management believes that including the amount payable under the Tax Receivable Agreements and utilizing the current income tax provision adjusted as described above when calculating DE is meaningful as it increases comparability between periods and more accurately reflects earnings that are available for distribution to shareholders.

 

§   Fee Related Earnings, or “FRE”, is a performance measure used to assess Blackstone’s ability to generate profits from revenues that are measured and received on a recurring basis and not subject to future realization events. FRE equals management and advisory fees (net of management fee reductions and offsets) plus Fee Related Performance Revenues, less (a) Fee Related Compensation on a segment basis, and (b) Other Operating Expenses. FRE is derived from and reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes.

DEFINITIONS AND DIVIDEND POLICY – (CONT’D)

 

 

  –   Fee Related Compensation is presented on a segment basis and refers to the compensation expense, excluding Equity-Based Compensation, directly related to (a) Management and Advisory Fees, Net and (b) Fee Related Performance Revenues, referred to as Fee Related Performance Compensation.

 

  –   Fee Related Performance Revenues refers to the realized portion of Performance Revenues from Perpetual Capital that are (a) measured and received on a recurring basis, and (b) not dependent on realization events from the underlying investments.

 

  –   Other Operating Expenses is presented on a segment basis and is equal to General, Administrative and Other Expenses, adjusted to (a) remove the Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items that are not recorded in the Total Segment measures, (b) remove certain expenses reimbursed by the Blackstone Funds which are netted against Management and Advisory Fees, Net in Blackstone’s segment presentation, and (c) give effect to an administrative fee collected on a quarterly basis from certain holders of Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units. The administrative fee is accounted for as a capital contribution under GAAP, but is reflected as a reduction of Other Operating Expenses in Blackstone’s segment presentation.

 

  –   Perpetual Capital refers to the component of assets under management with an indefinite term, that is not in liquidation, and for which there is no requirement to return capital to investors through redemption requests in the ordinary course of business, except where funded by new capital inflows or where required redemption requests are limited in quantum. Includes co-investment capital with an investor right to convert into Perpetual Capital.

 

  –   FRE Margin is calculated by dividing Fee Related Earnings by Fee Related Revenues (defined as the sum of Total Segment Management and Advisory Fees, Net and Fee Related Performance Revenues).

 

§   Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes and Depreciation and Amortization, or “Adjusted EBITDA”, is a supplemental measure used to assess performance derived from Blackstone’s segment results and may be used to assess its ability to service its borrowings. Adjusted EBITDA represents Distributable Earnings plus the addition of (a) Interest Expense on a segment basis, (b) Taxes and Related Payables, and (c) Depreciation and Amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is derived from and reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes.

 

§   Performance Revenues collectively refers to: (a) Incentive Fees, and (b) Performance Allocations.

 

§   Performance Compensation collectively refers to: (a) Incentive Fee Compensation, and (b) Performance Allocations Compensation.

 

  –   Performance Compensation reflects, pursuant to an ongoing compensation program, an increase in the aggregate Realized Performance Compensation paid to certain of our professionals above the amounts allocable to them based upon the percentage participation in the relevant performance plans previously awarded to them. The expectation is that for the full year 2026, Fee Related Compensation will be decreased by the total amount of additional Performance Compensation awarded for the year. The program, which typically has an impact on individual quarters based on the estimated amounts for the full year, does not impact Income Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes and Distributable Earnings for the full year. For 3Q’26 QTD, the increase to Realized Performance Compensation was less than the decrease to Fee Related Compensation, which favorably impacted Distributable Earnings for the current year quarter. For 3Q’26 YTD, 3Q’25 QTD and 3Q’25 YTD, the increase to Realized Performance Compensation was greater than the decrease to Fee Related Compensation, which negatively impacted Distributable Earnings for the current year YTD period and both the prior year quarter and YTD periods.

DEFINITIONS AND DIVIDEND POLICY – (CONT’D)

 

 

§   Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items arise from corporate actions including acquisitions, divestitures, Blackstone’s initial public offering, and non-recurring gains, losses, or other charges, if any. They consist primarily of equity-based compensation charges, gains and losses on contingent consideration arrangements, changes in the balance of the Tax Receivable Agreements resulting from a change in tax law or similar event, transaction costs, gains or losses associated with these corporate actions, and non-recurring gains, losses or other charges that affect period-to-period comparability and are not reflective of Blackstone’s operational performance.

 

§   Private Wealth AUM refers to the portion of assets under management attributable to the individual investor channel and comprises (a) all Assets Under Management in vehicles or share classes of vehicles, in each case that are primarily targeted to the individual investor channel (including parallel or related vehicles) and (b) Assets Under Management attributable only to individual investors (including through private wealth distribution agreements) in vehicles that are not primarily targeted to the individual investor channel.

Dividend Policy. Blackstone’s intention is to pay to holders of common stock a quarterly dividend representing approximately 85% of Blackstone Inc.’s share of Distributable Earnings, subject to adjustment by amounts determined by Blackstone’s board of directors to be necessary or appropriate to provide for the conduct of its business, to make appropriate investments in its business and funds, to comply with applicable law, any of its debt instruments or other agreements, or to provide for future cash requirements such as tax-related payments, clawback obligations and dividends to shareholders for any ensuing quarter. The dividend amount could also be adjusted upward in any one quarter. All of the foregoing is subject to the qualification that the declaration and payment of any dividends are at the sole discretion of Blackstone’s board of directors and our board of directors may change our dividend policy at any time, including, without limitation, to reduce such quarterly dividends or even to eliminate such dividends entirely.
