include, but are not limited to, statements related to our expectations, estimates, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies,
anticipated events or trends, and similar expressions and statements that are not historical facts, including our expectations
regarding the performance of our business, our financial results, our liquidity and capital resources, contingencies, and our
dividend policy. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believes,”
“expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,”
“estimates,” “anticipates,” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. Such forward-looking statements
are subject to various risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause
actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements including, but not limited to, those
described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 27,
2025, as such factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s
website at www.sec.gov. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other
cautionary statements that are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other periodic filings with the SEC.
We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future developments, or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
Website and Social Media Disclosure
We use our website (www.carlyle.com), our corporate Facebook page (www.facebook.com/onecarlyle), our corporate X
account (@OneCarlyle or www.x.com/onecarlyle), our corporate Instagram account (@onecarlyle or www.instagram.com/

(www.youtube.com/user/onecarlyle), and our corporate WeChat account (ID: gh_3e34f090ec20) as channels of distribution of
material company information. For example, financial and other material information regarding our company is routinely
posted on and accessible at www.carlyle.com. Accordingly, investors should monitor these channels, in addition to following
our press releases, SEC filings and public conference calls and webcasts. In addition, you may automatically receive email

ir.carlyle.com/email-alerts. The contents of our website and social media channels are not, however, a part of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q and are not incorporated by reference herein.
Carlyle does not conduct any public solicitations (including print and online articles, advertisements, or postings on social
media sites, messaging applications such as Telegram, WeChat, or WhatsApp, or other public platforms) with respect to
investments, fundraising, cryptocurrency, or opening accounts on social media sites. Any investment-related communication
received from these platforms purporting to be from a Carlyle professional is fraudulent and should be reported to authorities.
On January 1, 2020, we completed our conversion from a Delaware limited partnership named The Carlyle Group L.P.
into a Delaware Corporation named The Carlyle Group Inc. (the conversion, together with such restructuring steps and related
transactions, the “Conversion”).
Unless the context suggests otherwise, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “Carlyle,” the “Company,”
“we,” “us,” and “our” refer to The Carlyle Group Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. When we refer to our “senior Carlyle
professionals,” we are referring to the partner-level personnel of our firm.  References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to
the ownership of the senior Carlyle professionals include the ownership of personal planning vehicles of these individuals.
When we refer to the “Carlyle Holdings partnerships” or “Carlyle Holdings,” we are referring to Carlyle Holdings I L.P.,
Carlyle Holdings II L.P., and Carlyle Holdings III L.P., which prior to the Conversion were the holding partnerships through
which the Company and our senior Carlyle professionals and other holders of Carlyle Holdings partnership units owned their
respective interests in our business.
“Carlyle funds,” “our funds,” and “our investment funds” refer to the investment funds and vehicles advised by Carlyle.
“Carry funds” generally refers to closed-end investment vehicles, in which commitments are drawn down over a specified
investment period, and in which the general partner receives a special residual allocation of income from limited partners,
which we refer to as carried interest, in the event that specified investment returns are achieved by the fund. Disclosures
referring to carry funds will also include the impact of certain commitments that do not earn carried interest, but are either part
3
Table of Contents
of or associated with our carry funds. The rate of carried interest, as well as the share of carried interest allocated to Carlyle,
may vary across the carry fund platform. Carry funds generally include the following investment vehicles across our three
business segments:
•Global Private Equity: Buyout, growth, real estate, and infrastructure & natural resources funds advised by Carlyle, as
well as certain energy funds advised by our strategic partner NGP Energy Capital Management (“NGP”) in which
Carlyle is entitled to receive a share of carried interest (“NGP Carry Funds”);
•Global Credit: Opportunistic credit, aviation finance, and other closed-end credit funds advised by Carlyle; and 
•Carlyle AlpInvest (formerly, Global Investment Solutions): Funds and vehicles advised by AlpInvest Partners B.V.
and its affiliates (“AlpInvest”), which include global private equity programs that pursue secondary purchases and
financing of existing portfolios, managed co-investment programs, and primary fund investments.
Carry funds specifically exclude certain legacy Abingworth funds in which Carlyle is not entitled to receive a share of
carried interest, collateralized loan obligation vehicles (“CLOs”), our business development companies and associated managed
accounts, as well as capital raised from strategic third-party investors which directly invest in Fortitude (defined below)
alongside a carry fund.
For an explanation of the fund acronyms used throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, refer to “Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation – Our Global Investment Offerings.”
“Fortitude” refers to FGH Parent, L.P. (“FGH Parent”), the direct parent of Fortitude Group Holdings, LLC (“Fortitude
Holdings”). See Note 4, Investments, to the condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for more information regarding the Company’s strategic investment in Fortitude.
“Fee-earning assets under management” or “Fee-earning AUM” refers to the assets we manage or advise from which we
derive recurring fund management fees. Our Fee-earning AUM is generally based on one of the following, once fees have been
activated:
(a)the amount of limited partner capital commitments, generally for carry funds where the original investment period
has not expired and for AlpInvest carry funds during the commitment fee period;
(b)the remaining amount of limited partner invested capital at cost, generally for carry funds and certain co-investment
vehicles where the original investment period has expired;
(c)the amount of aggregate fee-earning collateral balance of our CLOs and other securitization vehicles, as defined in
the fund indentures (pre-2020 CLO vintages are generally exclusive of equities and defaulted positions) as of the
quarterly cut-off date;
(d)the external investor portion of the net asset value of certain carry funds;
(e)the fair value of Fortitude’s general account assets invested under the strategic advisory services agreement;
(f)the gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage) of certain cross-platform credit and direct lending
products, excluding cash and cash equivalents for one of our business development companies (included in “Fee-
earning AUM based on fair value and other” in the table below); and
(g)the lower of cost or fair value of invested capital, generally for AlpInvest carry funds where the commitment fee
period has expired and certain carry funds where the investment period has expired.
“Assets under management” or “AUM” refers to the assets we manage or advise. Our AUM generally equals the sum of
the following:
(a)the aggregate fair value of our carry funds and related co-investment vehicles, and separately managed accounts,
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;
4
Table of Contents
(b) the amount of aggregate collateral balance and principal cash or aggregate principal amount of the notes of our
CLOs and other structured products (inclusive of all positions);
(c) the net asset value of certain carry funds;
(d)the fair value of Fortitude’s general account assets covered by the strategic advisory services agreement; and
(e) the gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage) of certain cross-platform credit and direct lending
products, plus the capital that Carlyle is entitled to call from investors in those vehicles pursuant to the terms of their
capital commitments to those vehicles.
We include in our calculation of AUM and Fee-earning AUM the NGP Carry Funds that are advised by NGP. Our
calculation of AUM also includes third-party capital raised for the investment in Fortitude through a Carlyle-affiliated
investment fund and from strategic investors which directly invest in Fortitude alongside the fund. The total AUM and Fee-
earning AUM related to the strategic advisory services agreement with Fortitude is inclusive of the net asset value of
investments in Carlyle products. These amounts are also reflected in the AUM and Fee-earning AUM of the strategy in which
they are invested.
For most of our carry funds, 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, depending on whether the original
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.
Our calculations of AUM and Fee-earning AUM may differ from the calculations of other asset managers. As a result,
these measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers. In addition, our calculation of
AUM (but not Fee-earning AUM) includes uncalled commitments to, and the fair value of invested capital in, our investment
funds from Carlyle and our personnel, regardless of whether such commitments or invested capital are subject to management
fees, incentive fees or performance allocations. Our calculations of AUM or Fee-earning AUM are not based on any definition
of AUM or Fee-earning AUM that is set forth in the agreements governing the investment funds that we manage or advise.
“Performance Fee Eligible AUM” represents the AUM of funds for which we are entitled to receive performance
allocations, inclusive of the fair value of investments in those funds (which we refer to as “Performance Fee Eligible Fair
Value”) and their Available Capital. Performance Fee Eligible Fair Value is “Performance Fee-Generating” when the associated
fund has achieved the specified investment returns required under the terms of the fund’s agreement and is accruing
performance revenue as of the quarter-end reporting date. Funds whose performance allocations are treated as fee related
performance allocations are excluded from these metrics.
“Perpetual Capital” refers to the assets we manage or advise which have an indefinite term and for which there is no
immediate requirement to return capital to investors upon the realization of investments made with such capital, except as
required by applicable law. Perpetual Capital may be materially reduced or terminated under certain conditions, including
reductions from changes in valuations and payments to investors, including through elections by investors to redeem their
investments, dividend payments, and other payment obligations, as well as the termination of or failure to renew the respective
investment advisory agreements. Perpetual Capital includes: (a) assets managed under the strategic advisory services agreement
with Fortitude, (b) our Core Plus real estate fund, (c) our business development companies and certain other direct lending
products, (d) Carlyle Tactical Private Credit Fund (“CTAC”), (e) our closed-end tender offer Carlyle AlpInvest Private Markets
(“CAPM”) and Carlyle AlpInvest Private Markets Secondaries (“CAPS”) funds, and (f) certain other structured credit products.
“Legacy Energy Funds” include Energy III, Energy IV, and Renew II and are managed with Riverstone and its affiliates.
The investment periods for these funds have expired and the remaining investments in each fund are being disposed of in the
ordinary course of business. The impact of these funds is no longer significant to our results of operations.
“Metropolitan” or “MRE” refers to Metropolitan Real Estate Management, LLC, which was included in the Carlyle
AlpInvest business segment prior to its sale on April 1, 2021.

1. Organization
Carlyle is one of the world’s largest global investment firms that deploys private capital across its business and conducts
its operations through three reportable segments: Global Private Equity, Global Credit, and Carlyle AlpInvest (see Note 15,
Segment Reporting). The Global Private Equity segment advises buyout, growth, real estate, and infrastructure & natural
resources funds. The Global Private Equity segment also includes the NGP Carry Funds advised by NGP. The Global Credit
segment advises funds and vehicles that pursue investment strategies including insurance solutions, liquid credit, opportunistic
credit, direct lending, asset-backed finance, aviation finance, infrastructure credit, cross-platform credit products, and global
capital markets. The Carlyle AlpInvest segment (formerly, Global Investment Solutions) advises global private equity programs
that pursue secondary purchases and financing of existing portfolios, managed co-investment programs, and primary fund
investments. Carlyle typically serves as the general partner, investment manager, or collateral manager, making day-to-day
investment decisions concerning the assets of these products.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated
subsidiaries. In addition, certain Carlyle-affiliated funds, related co-investment entities, and certain CLOs managed by the
Company (collectively, the “Consolidated Funds”) have been consolidated in the accompanying financial statements. The
consolidation of the Consolidated Funds generally has a gross-up effect on assets, liabilities and cash flows, and generally has
no effect on the net income attributable to the Company. The economic ownership interests of the other investors in the
Consolidated Funds are reflected as non-controlling interests in consolidated entities in the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements. All of the investments held and notes issued by the Consolidated Funds are presented at their
estimated fair values in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Interest and other income of the Consolidated
Funds, interest expense and other expenses of the Consolidated Funds, and net investment income (losses) of Consolidated
Funds are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Management has determined that the Company’s funds are investment companies under U.S. GAAP for the purposes of
financial reporting. U.S. GAAP for an investment company requires investments to be recorded at estimated fair value and the
unrealized gains and/or losses in an investment’s fair value are recognized on a current basis in the statements of operations.
Additionally, the funds do not consolidate their majority-owned and controlled investments (the “Portfolio Companies”). In the
preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has retained the specialized accounting for the
funds.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for
interim financial information. These statements, including notes, have not been audited, exclude some of the disclosures
required for annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements
included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 27, 2025. 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. In the opinion of
management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals,
which are necessary for the fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods
presented.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company consolidates all entities that it controls either through a majority voting interest or as the primary
beneficiary of variable interest entities (“VIEs”).
The Company evaluates (1) whether it holds a variable interest in an entity, (2) whether the entity is a VIE, and (3)
whether the Company’s involvement would make it the primary beneficiary. In evaluating whether the Company holds a
variable interest, fees (including management fees, incentive fees and performance allocations) that are customary and
commensurate with the level of services provided, and where the Company does not hold other economic interests in the entity
13
Table of Contents

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
that would absorb more than an insignificant amount of the expected losses or returns of the entity, are not considered variable
interests. The Company considers all economic interests, including indirect interests, to determine if a fee is considered a
variable interest.
For those entities where the Company holds a variable interest, the Company determines whether each of these entities
qualifies as a VIE and, if so, whether or not the Company is the primary beneficiary. The assessment of whether the entity is a
VIE is generally performed qualitatively, which requires judgment. These judgments include: (a) determining whether the
equity investment at risk is sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial
support, (b) evaluating whether the equity holders, as a group, can make decisions that have a significant effect on the economic
performance of the entity, (c) determining whether two or more parties’ equity interests should be aggregated, and (d)
determining whether the equity investors have proportionate voting rights to their obligations to absorb losses or rights to
receive returns from an entity.
For entities that are determined to be VIEs, the Company consolidates those entities where it has concluded it is the
primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined as the variable interest holder with (a) the power to direct the activities
of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity
or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. In evaluating whether the
Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company evaluates its economic interests in the entity held either directly or indirectly
by the Company.
As of September 30, 2025, assets and liabilities of the consolidated VIEs reflected in the condensed consolidated balance
sheets were $12.4 billion and $10.3 billion, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, assets and liabilities of the consolidated
VIEs reflected in the consolidated balance sheets were $8.9 billion and $7.7 billion, respectively. Except to the extent of the
consolidated assets of the VIEs, the holders of the consolidated VIEs’ liabilities generally do not have recourse to the Company. 
The Company’s Consolidated Funds are primarily CLOs, which are VIEs that issue loans payable that are backed by
diversified collateral asset portfolios consisting primarily of loans or structured debt. In exchange for managing the collateral
for the CLOs, the Company earns investment management fees, including in some cases subordinated management fees and
contingent incentive fees. In cases where the Company consolidates the CLOs (primarily because of a retained interest that is
significant to the CLO), those management fees and contingent incentive fees have been eliminated as intercompany
transactions. As of September 30, 2025, the Company held $392.5 million of investments in these CLOs which represents its
maximum risk of loss. The Company’s investments in these CLOs are generally subordinated to other interests in the entities
and entitle the Company to receive a pro rata portion of the residual cash flows, if any, from the entities. Investors in the CLOs
have no recourse against the Company for any losses sustained in the CLO structure. The Company’s Consolidated Funds also
include certain investment funds in the Global Private Equity segment that are accounted for as consolidated VIEs due to the
Company providing financing to bridge investment purchases. As of September 30, 2025, the Company held $890.1 million of
notes receivable and investments related to these investment funds which represents its maximum risk of loss. The Company’s
Consolidated Funds also include certain funds in the Global Credit and Carlyle AlpInvest segments that are accounted for as
consolidated VIEs due to the Company having either a significant direct interest in these funds or significant indirect interest
via the Company’s investment in Fortitude (see Note 4, Investments).
Entities that do not qualify as VIEs are generally assessed for consolidation as voting interest entities. Under the voting
interest entity model, the Company consolidates those entities it controls through a majority voting interest.
All significant inter-entity transactions and balances of entities consolidated have been eliminated.
Investments in Unconsolidated Variable Interest Entities
The Company holds variable interests in certain VIEs that are not consolidated because the Company is not the primary
beneficiary, including its investments in certain credit vehicles and certain AlpInvest vehicles, as well as its strategic investment
in NGP Management Company, L.L.C. (“NGP Management” and, together with its affiliates, “NGP”). Refer to Note 4,
Investments, for information on the strategic investment in NGP. The Company’s involvement with such entities is in the form
of direct or indirect equity interests and fee arrangements. The maximum exposure to loss represents the loss of assets
recognized by the Company relating to its variable interests in these unconsolidated entities.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make assumptions and
estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Management’s estimates are based on historical experiences and other factors, including expectations of future events
that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. It also requires management to exercise judgment in the
process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. Assumptions and estimates regarding the valuation of investments and
their resulting impact on performance allocations and incentive fees involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity and
these assumptions and estimates may be significant to the condensed consolidated financial statements and the resulting impact
on performance allocations and incentive fees. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be
material.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from
Contracts with Customers. Revenue is recognized when the Company transfers promised goods or services to customers in an
amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
ASC 606 includes a five-step framework that requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, which includes
assessing the collectability of the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services transferred to
the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the
transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a
performance obligation.
The Company accounts for performance allocations that represent a performance-based capital allocation from fund
limited partners to the Company (commonly known as “carried interest”) as earnings from financial assets within the scope of
ASC 323, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures, and therefore are not in the scope of ASC 606. In accordance with
ASC 323, the Company records equity method income (losses) as a component of investment income based on the change in its
proportionate claim on net assets of the investment fund, including performance allocations, assuming the investment fund was
liquidated as of each reporting date pursuant to each fund’s governing agreements. See Note 4, Investments, for additional
information on the components of investments and investment income. Performance fees that do not meet the definition of
performance-based capital allocations are in the scope of ASC 606 and are included in incentive fees in the condensed
consolidated statements of operations. The calculation of unrealized performance revenues utilizes investment valuations of the
funds’ underlying investments, which are derived using the policies, methodologies and templates prepared by the Company’s
valuation group, as described in Note 3, Fair Value Measurement.
While the determination of who is the customer in a contractual arrangement will be made on a contract-by-contract
basis, the customer will generally be the investment fund for the Company’s significant management and advisory contracts.
The customer determination impacts the Company’s analysis of the accounting for contract costs.

Fund Management Fees
The Company provides management services to funds in which it holds a general partner interest or to funds or certain
portfolio companies with which it has an investment advisory or investment management agreement. The Company considers
the performance obligations in its contracts with its funds to be the promise to provide (or to arrange for third parties to provide)
investment management services related to the management, policies and operations of the funds.
As it relates to the Company’s performance obligation to provide investment management services, the Company
typically satisfies this performance obligation over time as the services are rendered, as the funds simultaneously receive and
consume the benefits provided as the Company performs the service. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to
which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised services to the funds. Management fees
earned from each investment management contract over the contract life represent variable consideration because the
consideration the Company is entitled to varies based on fluctuations in the basis for the management fee, for example fund net
asset value (“NAV”) or assets under management (“AUM”). Given that the management fee basis is susceptible to market
factors outside of the Company’s influence, management fees are constrained and, therefore, estimates of future period
management fees are generally not included in the transaction price. Revenue recognized for the investment management
services provided is generally the amount determined at the end of the period because that is when the uncertainty for that
period is resolved.
For closed-end carry funds in the Global Private Equity segment, management fees generally range from 1.0% to 2.0% of
limited partners’ capital commitments during the fund’s commitment period. For closed-end carry funds in the Global Credit
segment, management fees generally range from 1.0% to 2.0% of limited partners’ invested capital. Following the expiration or
termination of the investment period, management fees generally are based on the lower of cost or fair value of invested capital
and the rate charged may also be reduced. These terms may vary for certain separately managed accounts, longer-dated carry
funds, and other closed-end funds. The Company will receive management fees during a specified period of time, which is
generally ten years from the initial closing date, or, in some instances, from the final closing date, but such termination date
may be earlier in certain limited circumstances or later if extended for successive one-year periods, typically up to a maximum
of two years. Depending upon the contracted terms of investment advisory or investment management and related agreements,
these fees are generally called semi-annually in advance and are recognized as earned over the subsequent six month period. 
For certain longer-dated carry funds and certain other closed-end funds, management fees are called quarterly over the life of
the funds.
Within the Global Credit segment, for CLOs and other structured products, management fees generally range from 0.4%
to 0.5% based on the total par amount of assets or the aggregate principal amount of the notes in the CLO and are generally due
quarterly in arrears based on the terms and recognized over the respective period. Management fees for the CLOs and other
structured products are governed by indentures and collateral management agreements. The Company will receive management
fees for the CLOs, generally five to ten years after issuance, including after the CLO redemption date until all eligible assets are
disposed of or at such time the collateral manager waives fees at its discretion. Management fees for the business development
companies are due quarterly in arrears at annual rates that range from 1.0% of capital under management to 1.5% of gross
assets, excluding cash and cash equivalents. Management fees for CTAC are due monthly in arrears at an annual rate of 1.0% of
the month-end value of the CTAC’s net assets. Carlyle Aviation Partners’ funds have varying management fee arrangements
depending on the strategy of the particular fund. Under the strategic advisory services agreement with Fortitude, the Company
earns a recurring management fee based on Fortitude’s general account assets, which adjusts within an agreed upon range based
on Fortitude’s overall profitability and is due quarterly in arrears. Management fees for certain of our perpetual capital
strategies and separately managed accounts in Global Credit have annual rates that generally range from 0.10% to 0.75%, which
are charged based on invested capital or the fair value of the underlying assets, though management fee arrangements vary
depending on the strategy of the particular account.
Management fees for the Company’s carry fund vehicles in the Carlyle AlpInvest segment generally range from 0.25% to
1.5% of the vehicle’s capital commitments during the commitment fee period of the relevant fund. Following the expiration of
the commitment fee period, the management fees generally range from 0.25% to 1.5% on (i) the net invested capital, (ii) the
lower of cost or net asset value of the capital invested, or (iii) the net asset value for unrealized investments. Management fees
for the Carlyle AlpInvest carry fund vehicles are generally due quarterly in advance and recognized over the related quarter.
The investment advisers to the CAPM funds are entitled to receive a monthly management fee equal to 1.25% on an annualized
basis of the fund’s net asset value as of the last day of the month.
16
Table of Contents
The Carlyle Group Inc.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
The Company also provides transaction advisory and portfolio advisory services to the portfolio companies, and where
covered by separate contractual agreements, recognizes fees for these services when the performance obligation has been
satisfied and collection is reasonably assured. The Company is generally required to offset its fund management fees earned
from the funds that have invested in the portfolio companies to which the service has been provided by a percentage of the
transaction and advisory fees allocable to those funds. This amount is referred to as the “rebate offset,” and is generally 100%.
Transaction and advisory fees allocable to funds that do not pay fund management fees do not have a rebate offset. The
Company also recognizes underwriting fees from the Company’s loan syndication and capital markets business, Carlyle Global
Capital Markets. Fund management fees include transaction and portfolio advisory fees, as well as capital markets fees, of
$21.1 million and $25.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $143.6 million and
$75.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, net of rebate offsets as defined in the
respective fund limited partnership agreements.
Fund management fees exclude the reimbursement of any partnership expenses paid by the Company on behalf of the
Carlyle funds pursuant to the limited partnership agreements, including amounts related to the pursuit of actual, proposed, or
unconsummated investments, professional fees, expenses associated with the acquisition, holding and disposition of
investments, and other fund administrative expenses. For the professional fees that the Company arranges for the investment
funds, the Company concluded that the nature of its promise is to arrange for the services to be provided and it does not control
the services provided by third parties before they are transferred to the customer. Therefore, the Company concluded it is acting
in the capacity of an agent. Accordingly, the reimbursement for these professional fees paid on behalf of the investment funds is
presented on a net basis in general, administrative and other expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Company also incurs certain costs, primarily employee travel and entertainment costs, employee compensation and
systems costs, for which it receives reimbursement from the investment funds in connection with its performance obligation to
provide investment and management services. For reimbursable travel, compensation and systems costs, the Company
concluded it controls the services provided by its employees and the resources used to develop applicable systems before they
are transferred to the customer and therefore is a principal. Accordingly, the reimbursement for these costs incurred by the
Company to manage the fund limited partnerships are presented on a gross basis in interest and other income in the condensed
consolidated statements of operations and the expense in general, administrative and other expenses or cash-based
compensation and benefits expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Incentive Fees
The Company is also entitled to receive performance-based incentive fees when the return on assets under management
exceeds certain benchmark returns or other performance targets. In such arrangements, incentive fees are recognized when the
performance benchmark has been achieved. Incentive fees are variable consideration because they are contingent upon the
investment vehicle achieving stipulated investment return hurdles. Investment returns are highly susceptible to market factors
outside of the Company’s influence. Accordingly, incentive fees are constrained until all uncertainty is resolved. Estimates of
future period incentive fees are generally not included in the transaction price because these estimates are constrained. The
transaction price for incentive fees is generally the amount determined at the end of each accounting period to which they relate
because that is when the uncertainty for that period is resolved, as these fees are not subject to clawback. 
Investment Income (Loss), including Performance Allocations
Investment income (loss) represents the unrealized and realized gains and losses resulting from the Company’s equity
method investments, including any associated general partner performance allocations, and other principal investments,
including CLOs.
General partner performance allocations consist of the allocation of profits from certain of the funds to which the
Company is entitled (commonly known as carried interest).
For closed-end carry funds in the Global Private Equity and Global Credit segments, the Company is generally entitled to
a 20% allocation (or approximately 2% to 12.5% for most of the Carlyle AlpInvest segment carry fund vehicles) of the net
realized income or gain as a carried interest after returning the invested capital, the allocation of preferred returns of generally
7% to 9% and return of certain fund costs (generally subject to catch-up provisions as set forth in the fund limited partnership
agreement). These terms may vary on longer-dated funds, certain credit funds, and external co-investment vehicles. Carried
interest is recognized upon appreciation of the funds’ investment values above certain return hurdles set forth in each respective
17
Table of Contents
The Carlyle Group Inc.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
partnership agreement. The Company recognizes revenues attributable to performance allocations 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 as investment income for performance allocations reflects the Company’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, 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.
Carried interest is ultimately realized when: (i) an underlying investment is profitably disposed of, (ii) certain costs borne
by the limited partner investors have been reimbursed, (iii) the fund’s cumulative returns are in excess of the preferred return,
and (iv) the Company has decided to collect carry rather than return additional capital to limited partner investors. Realized
carried interest may be required to be returned by the Company in future periods if the fund’s investment values decline below
certain levels. When the fair value of a fund’s investments remains constant or falls below certain return hurdles, previously
recognized performance allocations are reversed. In all cases, each fund is considered separately in this regard, and for a given
fund, performance allocations can never be negative over the life of a fund. If upon a hypothetical liquidation of a fund’s
investments at their then-current fair values, previously recognized and distributed carried interest would be required to be
returned, a liability is established for the potential giveback obligation. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the
Company accrued $44.6 million and $44.0 million, respectively, for giveback obligations.
Principal investment income (loss) is realized when the Company redeems all or a portion of its investment or when the
Company receives or is due cash income, such as dividends or distributions. Unrealized principal investment income (loss)
results from the Company’s proportionate share of the investee’s unrealized earnings, including changes in the fair value of the
underlying investment, as well as the reversal of unrealized gain (loss) at the time an investment is realized. As it relates to the
Company’s investments in NGP (see Note 4, Investments), principal investment income includes the related amortization of the
basis difference between the Company’s carrying value of its investment and the Company’s share of underlying net assets of
the investee, as well as the compensation expense associated with compensatory arrangements provided by the Company to
employees of its equity method investee, and impairment charges.
Interest Income
Interest income is recognized when earned. For debt securities representing non-investment grade beneficial interests in
securitizations, the effective yield is determined based on the estimated cash flows of the security. Changes in the effective
yield of these securities due to changes in estimated cash flows are recognized on a prospective basis as adjustments to interest
income in future periods. Interest income earned by the Company is included in interest and other income in the accompanying
condensed consolidated statements of operations. Interest income of the Consolidated Funds was $146.9 million and $158.0
million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $412.4 million and $449.9 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and is included in interest and other income of Consolidated
Funds in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Credit Losses
The Company measures all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date in accordance with ASC
326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable
forecasts. The Company assesses the collection risk characteristics of the outstanding amounts in its due from affiliates balance
into the following pools of receivables:
•Reimbursable fund expenses receivables,
•Management fee receivables,
•Incentive fee receivables,
•Transaction fee receivables,
•Portfolio fee receivables, and
•Notes receivable.
The Company generally utilizes either historical credit loss information or discounted cash flows to calculate expected
credit losses for each pool. The Company’s receivables are predominantly with its investment funds, which have low risk of
credit loss based on the Company’s historical experience. Historical credit loss data may be adjusted for current conditions and
18

reasonable and supportable forecasts, including the Company’s expectation of near-term realization based on the liquidity of the
affiliated investment funds.
Compensation and Benefits
Cash-Based Compensation and Benefits – Cash-based compensation and benefits includes salaries, bonuses
(discretionary awards and guaranteed amounts), performance payment arrangements, and benefits paid and payable to Carlyle
employees. Bonuses are accrued over the service period to which they relate.
Equity-Based Compensation – Compensation expense relating to the issuance of equity-based awards is measured at fair
value on the grant date. The compensation expense for awards that vest over a future service period is recognized over the
relevant service period on a straight-line basis. The compensation expense for awards that do not require future service is
recognized immediately. Cash settled equity-based awards are classified as liabilities and are re-measured at the end of each
reporting period. The compensation expense for awards that contain performance conditions is recognized when it is probable
that the performance conditions will be achieved. The compensation expense for awards that contain market conditions is based
on a grant-date fair value that factors in the probability that the market conditions will be achieved and is recognized over the
requisite service period on a straight-line basis.
Certain equity-based awards contain dividend-equivalent rights, which are subject to the same terms and conditions,
including with respect to vesting and settlement, that apply to the related award. Dividend-equivalents are accounted for as a
reclassification from retained earnings to additional paid-in capital at the time dividends are declared and do not result in
incremental compensation expense.
Equity-based awards issued to non-employees are generally recognized as general, administrative and other expenses,
except to the extent they are recognized as part of the Company’s equity method earnings because they are issued to employees
of equity method investees.
The Company recognizes equity-based award forfeitures in the period they occur as a reversal of previously recognized
compensation expense for awards that vest based on service and/or performance conditions. The reduction in compensation
expense is determined based on the specific awards forfeited during that period. Furthermore, the Company recognizes all
excess tax benefits and deficiencies as income tax benefit or expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
For awards with a market condition (e.g., achievement of certain stock price hurdles) that are forfeited due to the market
condition not being achieved, the related equity-based compensation expense is not reversed.
Performance Allocations and Incentive Fee Related Compensation – A portion of the performance allocations and
incentive fees and certain other interests earned is due to employees and advisors of the Company. These amounts are
accounted for as profit sharing interests in compensation expense in a systematic and rational manner in conjunction with the
recognition of the related performance allocations and incentive fee revenue and, until paid, are recognized as a component of
the accrued compensation and benefits liability. The liability is measured assuming the hypothetical liquidation of the
associated funds’ underlying investments as of the measurement date. Accordingly, upon a reversal of performance allocations
or incentive fee revenue, the related compensation expense, if any, is also reversed. As any vesting requirement is accelerated
upon realization, the service period is not considered substantive when recording the liability based on the hypothetical
liquidation value. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a liability of $4.7 billion and
$4.8 billion, respectively, related to the portion of accrued performance allocations and incentive fees due to employees and
advisors, which was included in accrued compensation and benefits in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance
sheets.
Income Taxes
The Carlyle Group Inc. is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and thus is subject to U.S. federal, state, and
local corporate income taxes. Tax positions taken by the Company are subject to periodic audit by U.S. federal, state, local, and
foreign taxing authorities. The interim provision for income taxes is calculated using the discrete effective tax rate method as
allowed by ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. The discrete method is applied when the application of the estimated
annual effective tax rate is impractical because it is not possible to reliably estimate the annual effective tax rate. In addition, the
discrete method treats the year-to-date period as if it was the annual period and determines the income tax expense or benefit on
that basis.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the expected future consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or
tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial
statement reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the period in which the
difference is expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the
period of the change in the provision for income taxes. Further, deferred tax assets are recognized for the expected realization of
available net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is recorded on the Company’s gross deferred
tax assets when it is “more likely than not” that such asset will not be realized. When evaluating the realizability of the
Company’s deferred tax assets, all evidence, both positive and negative, is evaluated. Items considered in this analysis include
the ability to carry back losses, the reversal of temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and expectations of future
earnings. The Company accounts for the valuation allowance assessment on its deferred tax assets and without regard to the
Company’s potential future corporate alternative minimum tax (“CAMT”) status or global minimum tax status under the Pillar
Two Global Anti-Base Erosion (“GloBE”) model rules of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development
(“OECD”). Therefore, the Company accounts for CAMT and the global minimum tax in the period as incurred. Lastly, the
Company accounts for the tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) as incurred and therefore has not recorded
deferred taxes related to GILTI on its foreign subsidiaries.
Under U.S. GAAP for income taxes, the amount of tax benefit to be recognized is the amount of benefit that is “more
likely than not” to be sustained upon examination. The Company analyzes its tax filing positions in all of the U.S. federal, state,
local, and foreign tax jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as for all open tax years in these
jurisdictions. If, based on this analysis, the Company determines that uncertainties in tax positions exist, a liability is
established, which is included in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated
financial statements. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions in the
provision for income taxes. If recognized, the entire amount of unrecognized tax positions would be recorded as a reduction in
the provision for income taxes.
Non-controlling Interests
Non-controlling interests in consolidated entities represent the component of equity in consolidated entities held by third-
party investors. These interests are adjusted for general partner allocations which occur during the reporting period. Any change
in ownership of a subsidiary while the controlling financial interest is retained is accounted for as an equity transaction between
the controlling and non-controlling interests. Transaction costs incurred in connection with such changes in ownership of a
subsidiary are recorded as a direct charge to equity.
Earnings Per Common Share
The Company computes earnings per common share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings
per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to the common shares of the Company by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the
assumed conversion of all dilutive securities. The Company applies the treasury stock method to determine the dilutive
weighted-average common shares outstanding for certain equity-based compensation awards. For certain equity-based
compensation awards that contain performance or market conditions, the number of contingently issuable common shares is
included in diluted earnings per common share based on the number of common shares, if any, that would be issuable under the
terms of the awards if the end of the reporting period were the end of the contingency period, if the result is dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The underlying entities that the Company manages and invests in (and in certain cases, consolidates) are primarily
investment companies which account for their investments at estimated fair value.
The fair value measurement accounting guidance under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, establishes a hierarchical
disclosure framework which ranks the observability of market price inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair value.
The observability of inputs is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of financial instrument, the characteristics
specific to the financial instrument and the state of the marketplace, including the existence and transparency of transactions
between market participants. Financial instruments with readily available quoted prices, or for which fair value can be measured
20
Table of Contents
The Carlyle Group Inc.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
from quoted prices in active markets, will generally have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of
judgment applied in determining fair value.
Financial instruments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed based on the observability of inputs
used in the determination of fair values, as follows:
Level I – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical
instruments as of the reporting date. The type of financial instruments in this category include unrestricted
securities, such as equities and derivatives, listed in active markets. The Company does not adjust the quoted price
for these instruments, even in situations where the Company holds a large position and a sale could reasonably
impact the quoted price.
Level II – inputs to the valuation methodology are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either
directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. The types of financial instruments in this category
include less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in other than active markets,
government and agency securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on
observable inputs.
Level III – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to overall fair value
measurement. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or
estimation. The types of financial instruments in this category include investments in privately-held entities, non-
investment grade residual interests in securitizations, collateralized loan obligations, and certain over-the-counter
derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs. 
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such
cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for any given financial instrument is
based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the
significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to
the financial instrument.
In certain cases, debt and equity securities (including corporate treasury investments) are valued on the basis of prices
from an orderly transaction between market participants provided by reputable dealers or pricing services. In determining the
value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments,
quotations from dealers, pricing matrices, market transactions in comparable investments, and various relationships between
investments.
In the absence of observable market prices, the Company values its investments and its funds’ investments using
valuation methodologies applied on a consistent basis. For some investments little market activity may exist. Management’s
determination of fair value is then based on the best information available in the circumstances and may incorporate
management’s own assumptions and involve a significant degree of judgment, taking into consideration a combination of
internal and external factors, including the appropriate risk adjustments for non-performance and liquidity risks. Investments for
which market prices are not observable include private investments in the equity and debt of operating companies and real
assets, CLO investments and CLO loans payable and fund investments. The valuation technique for each of these investments is
described below:
Investments in Operating Companies and Real Assets – The fair values of private investments in operating companies
and real assets are generally determined by reference to the income approach (including the discounted cash flow
method and the income capitalization method) and the market approach (including the comparable publicly traded
company method and the comparable transaction method). Valuations under these approaches are typically derived by
reference to investment-specific inputs (such as projected cash flows, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization (“EBITDA”), and net operating income) combined with market-based inputs (such as discount rates,
EBITDA multiples and capitalization rates). In many cases, the investment-specific inputs are unaudited at the time
received. Management may also adjust the market-based inputs to account for differences between the subject
investment and the companies, assets or investments used to derive the market-based inputs. Adjustments to
observable valuation measures are frequently made upon the initial investment to calibrate the initial investment
valuation to industry observable inputs. Such adjustments are made to align the investment to observable industry
21
Table of Contents

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
inputs for differences in size, profitability, projected growth rates, geography, capital structure, and other factors as
applicable. The adjustments are then reviewed with each subsequent valuation to assess how the investment has
evolved relative to the observable inputs. Additionally, the investment may be subject to certain specific risks and/or
development milestones which are also taken into account in the valuation assessment. Option pricing models and
similar tools may also be considered but do not currently drive a significant portion of operating company or real asset
valuations and are used primarily to value warrants, derivatives, certain restrictions, and other atypical investment
instruments.
Credit-Oriented Investments – The fair values of credit-oriented investments (including corporate treasury
investments) are generally determined on the basis of prices between market participants provided by reputable dealers
or pricing services. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information
with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrices, market transactions in
comparable investments, and various relationships between investments. Specifically, for investments in distressed
debt and corporate loans and bonds, the fair values are generally determined by valuations of comparable investments.
In some instances, the Company may utilize other valuation techniques, including the discounted cash flow method.
CLO Investments and CLO Loans Payable – The Company measures the financial liabilities of its consolidated CLOs
based on the fair value of the financial assets of its consolidated CLOs, as the Company believes the fair value of the
financial assets are more observable. The fair values of the CLO loan and bond assets are primarily based on
quotations from reputable dealers or relevant pricing services. In situations where valuation quotations are unavailable,
the assets are valued based on similar securities, market index changes, and other factors. The Company performs
certain procedures to ensure the reliability of the quotations from pricing services for its CLO assets and CLO
structured asset positions, which generally includes corroborating prices with a discounted cash flow analysis.
Generally, the loan and bond assets of the CLOs are not publicly traded and are classified as Level III. The fair values
of the CLO structured asset positions are determined based on both discounted cash flow analyses and third party
quotes. Those analyses consider the position size, liquidity, current financial condition of the CLOs, the third party
financing environment, reinvestment rates, recovery lags, discount rates, and default forecasts and are compared to
broker quotations from market makers and third party dealers. 
The Company measures the CLO loan payables held by third party beneficial interest holders on the basis of the fair
value of the financial assets of the CLO and the beneficial interests held by the Company. The Company continues to
measure the CLO loans payable that it holds at fair value based on relevant pricing services or discounted cash flow
analyses, as described above.
Fund Investments – The Company’s primary and secondary investments in external funds are generally valued as its
proportionate share of the most recent net asset value provided by the third-party general partners of the underlying
fund partnerships, adjusted for subsequent cash flows received from or distributed to the underlying fund partnerships.
The Company also adjusts for any changes in the market prices of public securities held by the underlying fund
partnerships and may also apply a market adjustment to reflect the estimated change in the fair value of the underlying
fund partnerships’ non-public investments from the date of the most recent net asset value provided by the third-party
general partners.
Investment professionals with responsibility for the underlying investments are responsible for preparing the investment
valuations pursuant to the policies, methodologies, and templates prepared by the Company’s valuation group, which is a team
made up of dedicated valuation professionals reporting to the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer. The valuation group is
responsible for maintaining the Company’s valuation policy and related guidance, templates, and systems that are designed to
be consistent with the guidance found in ASC 820. These valuations, inputs, and preliminary conclusions are reviewed by the
fund management teams. The valuations are then reviewed and approved by the respective fund valuation subcommittees,
which include the respective fund head(s), segment head, chief financial officer, and chief accounting officer, as well as
members of the valuation group. The valuation group compiles the aggregate results and significant matters and presents them
for review and approval by the global valuation committee, which includes the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Risk
Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, and the business segment heads, and is observed by the Chief
Compliance Officer, the Chief Audit Executive, the Company’s Audit Committee, and others. Additionally, each quarter a
sample of valuations are reviewed by external valuation firms. Valuations of the funds’ investments are used in the calculation
of accrued performance allocations, or “carried interest.”

Investments, at Fair Value
Investments include (i) the Company’s ownership interests (typically general partner interests) in the Funds, including the
Company’s investment in Fortitude held through Carlyle FRL (which are accounted for as equity method investments), (ii) the
Company’s investment in NGP (which is accounted for as an equity method investment), (iii) the investments held by the
Consolidated Funds (which are presented at fair value in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements), and (iv)
certain credit-oriented investments, including investments in the CLOs and the common shares of Carlyle Secured Lending,
Inc. (“CGBD,” see Note 4, Investments, and Note 9, Related Party Transactions, for more information), which are accounted
for as trading securities.
Upon the sale of a security or other investment, the realized net gain or loss is computed on a weighted average cost
basis, with the exception of the investments held by the CLOs, which compute the realized net gain or loss on a first in, first out
basis. Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis.
Equity Method Investments
The Company accounts for all investments in which it has or is otherwise presumed to have significant influence,
including investments in the unconsolidated Funds and the Company’s investment in NGP, using the equity method of
accounting. The carrying value of equity method investments is determined based on amounts invested by the Company,
adjusted for the equity in earnings or losses of the investee (including performance allocations) allocated based on the
respective partnership agreement, less distributions received. The Company evaluates its equity method investments for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such investments may not be
recoverable.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash held at banks and cash held for distributions, including investments with original
maturities of less than three months when purchased. The Company is subject to credit risk should a financial institution be
unable to fulfil its obligations and if balances held at a financial institution exceed insured limits.
Cash and Cash Equivalents Held at Consolidated Funds
Cash and cash equivalents held at Consolidated Funds consists of cash and cash equivalents held by the Consolidated
Funds, which, although not legally restricted, is not available to fund the general liquidity needs of the Company.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash primarily represents cash held by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries due to certain government
regulatory capital requirements as well as certain amounts held on behalf of Carlyle funds. As of September 30, 2025 and
December 31, 2024, the Company held restricted cash of $4.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively, which are included in
Deposits and other in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Corporate Treasury Investments
Corporate treasury investments represent investments in U.S. Treasury and government agency obligations, commercial
paper, certificates of deposit, other investment grade securities and other investments with original maturities of greater than
three months when purchased. These investments are accounted for as trading securities in which changes in the fair value of
each investment are recorded through investment income (loss). Any interest earned on debt investments is recorded through
interest and other income.
Derivative Instruments
The Company uses derivative instruments primarily to reduce its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. 
Derivative instruments are recognized at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets with changes in fair value
recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all derivatives not designated as hedging instruments.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase
As it relates to certain European CLOs sponsored by the Company, securities sold under agreements to repurchase
(“Repurchase Agreements”) are accounted for as collateralized financing transactions. The Company provides securities to
counterparties to collateralize amounts borrowed under Repurchase Agreements on terms that permit the counterparties to
repledge or resell the securities to others. As of September 30, 2025, $325.9 million of securities were transferred to
counterparties under Repurchase Agreements and are included within investments in the condensed consolidated balance
sheets. Cash received under Repurchase Agreements is recognized as a liability within debt obligations in the condensed
consolidated balance sheets. See Note 6, Borrowings, for additional information.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets consist of furniture, fixtures and equipment, leasehold improvements, computer hardware and software, and
fractional shares in corporate aircraft, and are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is
recognized on a straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives, which for leasehold improvements are the lesser of
the lease terms or the life of the asset, and three to seven years for other fixed assets. Fixed assets are reviewed for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Leases
The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases, and recognizes a lease liability and right-of-
use (“ROU”) asset in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for contracts that it determines are leases or contain a lease.
The Company’s leases primarily consist of operating leases for office space in various countries around the world. The
Company also has operating leases for office equipment and vehicles, which are not significant. The Company does not
separate non-lease components from lease components for its office space and equipment operating leases and instead accounts
for each separate lease component and its associated non-lease component as a single lease component. ROU assets represent
the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to
make lease payments arising from the leases. The Company’s ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease
commencement based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease ROU assets include initial direct costs
incurred by the Company and are presented net of deferred rent and lease incentives. Absent an implicit interest rate in the
lease, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate, adjusted for the effects of collateralization, based on the information
available at commencement in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s lease terms may include
options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those options. Lease
expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease ROU assets are reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.
The Company does not recognize a lease liability or ROU asset on the balance sheet for short-term leases. Instead, the
Company recognizes short-term lease payments as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. A short-term lease is
defined as a lease that, at the commencement date, has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not include an option to
purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. When determining whether a lease qualifies as a
short-term lease, the Company evaluates the lease term and the purchase option in the same manner as all other leases.
ROU assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of an asset may not be recoverable.
Intangible Assets and Goodwill
The Company’s intangible assets consist of acquired contractual rights to earn future fee income, including management
and advisory fees, customer relationships, and acquired trademarks. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their
estimated useful lives, which range from four to eight years, and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the identifiable net assets of businesses acquired and is recorded in the
functional currency of the acquired entity. Goodwill is recognized as an asset and is reviewed for impairment annually as of
October 1 and between annual tests when events and circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred.

Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue represents management fees and other revenue received prior to the balance sheet date, which has not
yet been earned. Deferred revenue also includes transaction and portfolio advisory fees received by the Company that are
required to offset fund management fees pursuant to the related fund agreements.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company’s accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) comprise foreign currency translation adjustments and
gains and losses on defined benefit plans sponsored by AlpInvest. The components of accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss) as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:

Foreign Currency Translation
Non-U.S. dollar denominated assets and liabilities are translated at period-end rates of exchange, and the condensed
consolidated statements of operations are translated at rates of exchange in effect throughout the period. Foreign currency gains
(losses) resulting from transactions outside of the functional currency of an entity of $2.9 million and $(10.2) million for the
three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $(22.2) million and $(9.2) million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, are included in general, administrative and other expenses in the condensed
consolidated statements of operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standard updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). ASUs not listed below were assessed and either determined to be not applicable or
expected to have minimal impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosure, which requires disclosure
of disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation, using both percentages and reporting
currency amounts for specific standardized categories, as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction.
The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company
does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial
statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires
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 line item that contains those expenses. The guidance
is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

(1)The balance includes $642.2 million and $912.0 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, related to
the Company’s equity method investments in NGP.
(2)The balance includes $739.5 million and $723.5 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, related to
the Company’s investment in Fortitude.
Investment in Fortitude
In November 2018, the Company acquired a 19.9% interest in Fortitude Group Holdings, LLC (“Fortitude Holdings”), a
wholly owned subsidiary of American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”). Fortitude Holdings owns 100% of the outstanding
common shares of Fortitude Reinsurance Company Ltd., a Bermuda domiciled reinsurer (“Fortitude Re”). The Company paid
$381 million in cash at closing and paid $95 million in additional deferred consideration in 2024. In May 2020, the initial
purchase price was adjusted upward by $99.5 million in accordance with the purchase agreement as Fortitude Holdings chose
not to distribute a planned non-pro rata dividend to AIG, of which the Company paid $79.6 million in May 2020. The
remaining $19.9 million was paid in 2024.
In June 2020, Carlyle FRL, L.P. (“Carlyle FRL”), a Carlyle-affiliated investment fund, and T&D United Capital Co., Ltd.
(“T&D”), a strategic third-party investor, acquired a 51.6% ownership interest and 25.0% ownership interest, respectively, in
Fortitude Holdings from AIG. At closing, the Company contributed its existing 19.9% interest in Fortitude Holdings to Carlyle
FRL, such that Carlyle FRL held a 71.5% interest in Fortitude Holdings. Taken together, Carlyle FRL and T&D had 96.5%
ownership of Fortitude Holdings. In October 2021, Carlyle FRL, T&D and an affiliate of AIG contributed the entirety of their
interest in Fortitude Holdings to FGH Parent, L.P. (“FGH Parent”), a newly-formed entity interposed as the direct parent of
Fortitude Holdings, in exchange for an equivalent ownership interest in FGH Parent. References to “Fortitude” prior to this
restructuring refer to Fortitude Holdings and refer to FGH Parent for subsequent periods.
In March 2022, the Company raised $2.0 billion in third-party equity capital from certain investors in Carlyle FRL and
T&D, and committed $100 million from the Company for additional equity capital in Fortitude. Upon Fortitude calling the
remaining commitments from the capital raise in May 2023, the Company’s indirect ownership of Fortitude decreased to 
10.5%. Effective October 2023, a third-party investor in Carlyle FRL received a distribution in kind of its interest in FGH
Parent held indirectly through the fund, reducing Carlyle FRL’s ownership in FGH Parent to 38.5%. Following the additional
capital contributions in 2022 and 2023, Carlyle FRL and its strategic third-party investors collectively hold a 97.5% interest in
FGH Parent.
In November 2024, Fortitude declared and paid a $200.0 million dividend, of which Carlyle FRL’s share was
$76.9 million. The Company received a distribution from Carlyle FRL of $21.0 million related to this dividend, of which
$7.9 million was recognized as realized principal investment income, and the balance as return of capital. In September 2025,
Fortitude declared and paid a $300.0 million dividend, $31.4 million of which was distributed to the Company from Carlyle
FRL and recognized as realized principal investment income on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the carrying value of the Company’s investment
in Carlyle FRL, which is an investment company that accounts for its investment in Fortitude at fair value, was $739.5 million,
relative to equity invested of $666.8 million.
The Company has an asset management relationship with Fortitude pursuant to which Fortitude committed to allocate
assets in asset management strategies and vehicles of the Company and its affiliates. As of September 30, 2025, Fortitude, its
affiliates and certain Fortitude reinsurance counterparties have committed approximately $23.3 billion of capital to-date to
various Carlyle strategies. On April 1, 2022, the Company entered into a strategic advisory services agreement with certain
subsidiaries of Fortitude through Carlyle Insurance Solutions Management L.L.C. (“CISM”), an investment adviser. Under the
agreement, CISM provides Fortitude with certain services, including business development and growth, transaction origination

and execution, and capital management services in exchange for a recurring management fee based on Fortitude’s general
account assets, which adjusts within an agreed range based on Fortitude’s overall profitability. Third-party investors who
participated in the March 2022 capital raise also made a minority investment in CISM, which is reflected as non-controlling
interest in consolidated entities in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

NGP Restructuring. On March 31, 2025, the Company restructured the terms of its strategic investment in NGP (the
“Restructuring”) to further align the interests of the Company and NGP. The Restructuring eliminated previous restrictions on
the Company’s ability to pursue domestic energy strategies, established a new capital markets fees arrangement with NGP, and
terminated the Company’s obligation to grant up to $10 million of its common shares to NGP annually following a final grant
made with respect to 2030. Additionally, in order to facilitate the development of future funds while substantially maintaining
the Company’s economics on existing funds, the Restructuring reduced the Company’s allocation of the management fee
related revenues of NGP Management related to future funds, as well as its share of the performance allocations received by
current and future NGP fund general partners, as discussed further below.
Prior to the Restructuring, the Company’s equity interests in NGP Management entitled the Company to an allocation of
income equal to 55.0% of the management fee related revenues earned by NGP Management. Subsequent to the Restructuring,
for all funds that held an initial closing after December 31, 2024, the Company’s allocations of income for the management fee
related revenues will be based on a sliding scale of the total annual management fee related revenues accrued from all such
funds in the aggregate up to 55.0%, including all management fees being retained by NGP for the years 2025 through 2028 on
such future NGP funds. The Company identified the reduction of its allocation of the management fee related revenues of NGP
Management as an indicator of impairment and performed an impairment analysis. As a result of the Restructuring, the
Company concluded that the carrying value of its investment in NGP Management was impaired and recorded an impairment
charge of $92.5 million during the first quarter of 2025, representing the difference in the carrying value of the investment of
$352.5 million and its fair value of $260.0 million at the time of Restructuring. The Company utilized a discounted cash flow
method for determining the fair value of its equity method investment, which is a Level III valuation within the fair value
hierarchy and utilizes significant unobservable assumptions, including discount rates and long-term growth rates. The allocation
of management fee related revenues for existing NGP funds remains unchanged, including the Company’s interest in
management fees from NGP XI, NGP XII, and NGP XIII.
The impairment charge created new basis differences with an estimated fair value of $165 million within the equity
method investment. These basis differences will be amortized over an estimated useful life ranging from five to seven years as a
reduction of principal investment income.
The Company’s investment in the general partners of the NGP Carry Funds entitled it to 47.5% (38.0% to 42.75% in the
case of certain funds) of the performance allocations received by certain current and future NGP fund general partners prior to
the Restructuring. In connection with the Restructuring, the Company’s allocation of the performance allocations from existing
NGP Carry Funds was reduced to a range of 35.1% to 43.8%, which resulted in a $38 million reduction in accrued performance

allocations during the first quarter of 2025. The Company’s interest in the performance allocations from future NGP Carry
Funds will be based on a sliding scale of the fee paying capital raised in each future NGP Carry Fund, up to 47.5% of the
performance allocations received by future NGP Carry Funds.
The impairment charge related to the investment in NGP Management and the reduction in accrued performance
allocations from NGP Carry Funds are recorded in Principal investment income (loss) in the condensed consolidated statements
of operations and excluded from Distributable Earnings, as defined in Note 15, Segment Reporting.
Investment in NGP Management. As referenced above, the Company’s equity interests in NGP Management entitle the
Company to an allocation of income equal to 55.0% of the management fee related revenues earned by existing funds, and up to
55.0% of management fees earned on future NGP funds in the aggregate, including all management fees being retained by NGP
for the years 2025 through 2028 on such future NGP funds. The Company records investment income (loss) for its equity
income allocation from NGP management fee related revenues and also records its share of any allocated expenses from NGP
Management, as well as expenses associated with the compensatory elements of the investment and any impairment charges.
The net investment income (loss) recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

Management fee related revenues from NGP Management were primarily driven by NGP XI, NGP XII, and NGP XIII
during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. These funds calculate management fees as 1.5% of the
limited partners’ commitments less any return of capital or write-offs during the investment period. Following the investment
period, the basis on which fund management fees are generally calculated is further reduced by a reserve for future management
fees and operating costs.
Investment in the General Partners of NGP Carry Funds. As referenced above, the Company’s investment in the general
partners of the NGP Carry Funds entitle it to up to 47.5% of the performance allocations received by NGP fund general
partners. The Company records its equity income allocation from NGP performance allocations in principal investment income
(loss) from equity method investments rather than performance allocations in its condensed consolidated statements of
operations. The Company recognized net investment earnings (losses) related to these performance allocations of $23.8 million
and $14.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $22.9 million and $33.2 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, in its condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The nine months ended September 30, 2025 included the $38.0 million reduction related to the Restructuring.
Principal Investments in NGP Funds. The Company also holds principal investments in the NGP Carry Funds. The
Company recognized net investment earnings (losses) related to principal investment income (loss) in its condensed
consolidated statements of operations of $3.3 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and
2024, respectively, and $8.8 million and $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $3.7 million and $6.2 million, respectively. Interest expense for the
nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $11.5 million and $19.2 million, respectively. The fair value of the
outstanding balance of the CLO term loans at September 30, 2025 approximated par value based on current market rates for
similar debt instruments. These CLO term loans are classified as Level III within the fair value hierarchy.
European CLO Financing – February 28, 2017
A subsidiary of the Company is a party to a financing agreement with several financial institutions. As of September 30,
2025, the financing agreement provided the Company with a term loan of €11.4 million ($13.4 million at September 30, 2025).
This term loan is secured by the Company’s investments in the retained notes in certain European CLOs that were formed in
2014 and 2015. This term loan will mature on the earlier of September 21, 2029 or the date that the certain European CLO
retained notes have been redeemed. The Company may prepay the term loan in whole or in part at any time. Interest on this
term loan accrues at EURIBOR plus applicable margins (4.56% at September 30, 2025).
Master Credit Agreement – Term Loans
The Company assumed liabilities under master credit agreements previously entered into by CBAM under which a
financial institution provided term loans to CBAM for the purchase of eligible interests in CLOs. Term loans issued under these
master credit agreements are secured by the Company’s investment in the respective CLO as well as any senior management
fee and subordinated management fee payable by each CLO. Term loans generally bear interest at SOFR plus a weighted
average spread over SOFR on the CLO notes, which is due quarterly. As of September 30, 2025, all outstanding CLO term
loans under this agreement have been repaid.
CLO Repurchase Agreements
On February 5, 2019, the Company entered into a master credit facility agreement (the “Carlyle CLO Financing Facility”)
to finance a portion of the risk retention investments in certain European CLOs managed by the Company. Each transaction
entered into under the Carlyle CLO Financing Facility will bear interest at a rate based on the weighted average effective
interest rate of each class of securities that have been sold plus a spread to be agreed upon by the parties. As of September 30,
2025, €214.1 million ($251.5 million) was outstanding under the Carlyle CLO Financing Facility. Additional borrowings may
be made on terms agreed upon by the Company and the counterparty subject to the terms and conditions of the Carlyle CLO
Financing Facility.
Each transaction entered into under the CLO Financing Facility provides for payment netting and, in the case of a default
or similar event with respect to the counterparty to the CLO Financing Facility, provides for netting across transactions.
Generally, upon a counterparty default, the Company can terminate all transactions under the CLO Financing Facility and offset
amounts it owes in respect of any one transaction against collateral, if any, or other amounts it has received in respect of any
other transactions under the CLO Financing Facility; provided, however, that in the case of certain defaults, the Company may
only be able to terminate and offset solely with respect to the transaction affected by the default. During the term of a
transaction entered into under the CLO Financing Facility, the Company will deliver cash or additional securities acceptable to
the counterparty if the securities sold are in default. Upon termination of a transaction, the Company will repurchase the
previously sold securities from the counterparty at a previously determined repurchase price. The CLO Financing Facility may
be terminated at any time upon certain defaults or circumstances agreed upon by the parties.
The Repurchase Agreements may result in credit exposure in the event the counterparty to the transaction is unable to
fulfill its contractual obligations. The Company minimizes the credit risk associated with these activities by monitoring
counterparty credit exposure and collateral values. Other than margin requirements, the Company is not subject to additional
terms or contingencies which would expose the Company to additional obligations based upon the performance of the securities
pledged as collateral.
The Company assumed liabilities under a master credit facility agreement previously entered into by CBAM (the
“CBAM CLO Financing Facility,” together with the Carlyle CLO Financing Facility, the “CLO Financing Facilities”) to
finance a portion of the risk retention investments in certain European CLOs managed by CBAM. The maximum facility
amount is €100.0 million, but may be expanded on such terms agreed upon by the Company and the counterparty subject to the

terms and conditions of the CBAM CLO Financing Facility. Each transaction entered into under the CBAM CLO Financing
Facility will bear interest at a rate based on the weighted average effective interest rate of each class of securities that have been
sold plus a spread to be agreed upon by the parties. As of September 30, 2025, €63.4 million ($74.4 million) was outstanding
under the CBAM CLO Financing Facility.

Subordinated Notes
In May 2021, an indirect subsidiary of the Company issued $435.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.625%
Subordinated Notes due May 15, 2061 (the “Subordinated Notes”), on which interest is payable quarterly accruing from May
11, 2021. In June 2021, an additional $65.0 million aggregate principal amount of these Subordinated Notes were issued and
are treated as a single series with the already outstanding $435.0 million aggregate principal amount. The Subordinated Notes
are unsecured and subordinated obligations of the issuer, and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed (the “Guarantees”),
jointly and severally, on a subordinated basis, by the Company, each of the Carlyle Holdings partnerships, and CG Subsidiary
Holdings L.L.C., an indirect subsidiary of the Company (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The Consolidated Funds are not
guarantors, and as such, the assets of the Consolidated Funds are not available to service the Subordinated Notes under the
Guarantee. The Subordinated Notes may be redeemed at the issuer’s option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to
time on or after June 15, 2026, prior to their stated maturity, at a redemption price equal to their principal amount plus any
accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption. If interest due on the Subordinated Notes is deemed to no
longer be deductible in the U.S., a “Tax Redemption Event,” the Subordinated Notes may be redeemed, in whole, but not in
part, within 120 days of the occurrence of such event at a redemption price equal to their principal amount plus accrued and
unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption. In addition, the Subordinated Notes may be redeemed, in whole, but
not in part, at any time prior to May 15, 2026, within 90 days of the rating agencies determining that the Subordinated Notes
should no longer receive partial equity treatment pursuant to the rating agency’s criteria, a “rating agency event,” at a
redemption price equal to 102% of their principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of
redemption.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair value of the Subordinated Notes was $359.6 million and
$356.4 million, respectively. Fair value is based on active market quotes and the notes are classified as Level I within the fair
value hierarchy. For both the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred $5.8 million of interest
expense on the Subordinated Notes. For both the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred
$17.6 million of interest expense on the Subordinated Notes.
Debt Covenants
The Company is subject to various financial covenants under its loan agreements including, among other items,
maintenance of a minimum amount of management fee-earning assets. The Company is also subject to various non-financial
covenants under its loan agreements and the indentures governing its senior notes. The Company was in compliance with all
financial and non-financial covenants under its various loan agreements as of September 30, 2025.
Loans Payable of Consolidated Funds
Loans payable of Consolidated Funds primarily represent amounts due to holders of debt securities issued by the CLOs.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the following borrowings were outstanding (Dollars in millions):

8. Commitments and Contingencies
Capital Commitments
The Company and its unconsolidated affiliates have unfunded commitments totaling $4.0 billion as of September 30,
2025, of which approximately $3.4 billion is subscribed individually by senior Carlyle professionals, advisors and other
professionals. In addition to these unfunded commitments, the Company may from time to time exercise its right to purchase
additional interests in its investment funds that become available in the ordinary course of their operations.
Under the Carlyle Global Capital Markets platform, certain subsidiaries of the Company may act as an underwriter,
syndicator or placement agent for security offerings and loan originations. The Company earns fees in connection with these
activities and bears the risk of the sale of such securities and placement of such loans, which may be longer dated. As of
September 30, 2025, the Company had no material commitments related to the origination and syndication of loans and
securities under the Carlyle Global Capital Markets platform.
Guaranteed Loans 
From time to time, the Company or its subsidiaries may enter into agreements to guarantee certain obligations of the
investment funds related to, for example, credit facilities or equity commitments. Certain consolidated subsidiaries of the
Company are the guarantors of revolving credit facilities for certain funds in the Carlyle AlpInvest segment. The guarantee is
limited to the lesser of the total amount drawn under the credit facilities or the total of net asset value of the guarantor
subsidiaries plus any uncalled capital of the applicable general partner. The outstanding balances are secured by uncalled capital
commitments from the underlying funds and the Company believes the likelihood of any material funding under this guarantee
to be remote. The Company had no material outstanding guarantees under the credit facilities as of September 30, 2025.
Certain consolidated subsidiaries of the Company were the guarantors of a credit agreement for a fund in the Carlyle
AlpInvest segment, with a maximum potential amount to be funded of $25.0 million. The credit agreement and related
guarantee expired in August 2025 with no funding required by the Company.
Contingent Obligations (Giveback)
A liability for potential repayment of previously received performance allocations of $44.6 million at September 30, 2025
was shown as accrued giveback obligations in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, representing the giveback obligation
that would need to be paid if the funds were liquidated at their current fair values at September 30, 2025. However, the ultimate
giveback obligation, if any, generally is not paid until the end of a fund’s life or earlier if the giveback becomes fixed and early
payment is agreed upon by the fund’s partners (see Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies). The Company had
$11.5 million of unbilled receivables from former and current employees and senior Carlyle professionals as of September 30,
2025 related to giveback obligations. Any such receivables are collateralized by investments made by individual senior Carlyle
professionals and employees in Carlyle-sponsored funds. In addition, $153.9 million have been withheld from distributions of
carried interest to senior Carlyle professionals and employees for potential giveback obligations as of September 30, 2025. Such
amounts are held on behalf of the respective current and former Carlyle employees to satisfy any givebacks they may owe and
are held by entities not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Current and former senior Carlyle
professionals and employees are personally responsible for their giveback obligations. As of September 30, 2025,
approximately $11.5 million of the Company’s accrued giveback obligation is the responsibility of various current and former
senior Carlyle professionals and other former limited partners of the Carlyle Holdings partnerships, and the net accrued
giveback obligation attributable to the Company is $33.1 million.

Table of Contents
The Carlyle Group Inc.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
If, at September 30, 2025, all of the investments held by the Company’s Funds were deemed worthless, a possibility that
management views as remote, the amount of realized and distributed carried interest subject to potential giveback would be
$1.5 billion, on an after-tax basis where applicable, of which approximately $0.6 billion would be the responsibility of current
and former senior Carlyle professionals.
Legal Matters
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is a party to litigation, investigations, inquiries, employment-related
matters, disputes, and other potential claims. Certain of these matters are described below. The Company is not currently able to
estimate the reasonably possible amount of loss or range of loss, in excess of amounts accrued, for the matters that have not
been resolved. The Company does not believe it is probable that the outcome of any existing litigation, investigations, disputes,
or other potential claims will materially affect the Company or these financial statements in excess of amounts accrued.
The Authentix Matter
Authentix, Inc. (“Authentix”) was a majority-owned portfolio company in one of the Company’s investment funds,
Carlyle U.S. Growth Fund III, L.P. (“CGF III”). When Authentix was owned by CGF III, two of the Company’s employees
served on Authentix’s board of directors. After a lengthy sale process, Authentix was sold for an aggregate sale price of
$87.5 million. On August 7, 2020, certain of the former minority shareholders in Authentix filed suit in Delaware Chancery
Court, alleging that the Authentix board of directors, CGF III, and the Company breached various fiduciary duties by agreeing
to a sale of Authentix at an inopportune time and at a price that was too low. A trial before the Delaware Court of Chancery was
completed in early February 2024, and a decision was rendered in favor of the Company and all other defendants on all claims
on January 8, 2025. The plaintiffs appealed the decision to the Delaware Supreme Court on March 13, 2025. Oral argument on
the appeal was held on October 22, 2025, and a decision was rendered in favor of the Company and all other defendants on all
claims on November 5, 2025.
The Tax Receivable Agreement Matter
The Company came into existence on January 1, 2020, when its predecessor, The Carlyle Group, L.P. (the “PTP”),
converted from a partnership into a corporation (the “Conversion”). On July 29, 2022, an alleged stockholder of the Company,
the City of Pittsburgh Comprehensive Municipal Trust Fund (the “original Plaintiff”), filed suit in the Delaware Court of
Chancery, alleging a direct claim against the Company for breach of its certificate of incorporation and a derivative claim on
behalf of the Company against certain current and former officers and directors of the Company. As the original Plaintiff did
not actually own shares on the date of the Conversion, it stipulated to the dismissal of the derivative claims in October of 2025
and the Court has allowed Charles Blackburn (together with the original Plaintiff, “Plaintiffs”) to intervene as a new plaintiff
with respect to the derivative claims. The original Plaintiff continues as a plaintiff with respect to one direct claim. Plaintiffs
challenge the receipt, by certain officers of the PTP and certain directors of the general partner of the PTP, of a right to cash
payments associated with the elimination of a tax receivable agreement in connection with the Conversion. Plaintiffs are
seeking monetary damages, restitution, and an injunction preventing the Company from making any future cash payments for
the elimination of the tax receivable agreement in connection with the Conversion. By virtue of the derivative nature of the
primary claims (i.e., that the claims are aimed primarily at certain officers and directors), it is unlikely that the Company itself
will pay material damage awards based on the derivative claims, although the Company is expected to incur legal defense fees
to the extent not covered by insurance. The Delaware Court issued a ruling on the defendant’s motion to dismiss on April 24,
2024, dismissing some of the original Plaintiff’s claims but allowing most of the claims to proceed to discovery and possibly to
trial. The Company intends to contest the direct claims vigorously, and the officer and director defendants intend to continue
contesting the derivative claims vigorously.
General
The Company currently is and expects to continue to be, from time to time, subject to examinations, formal and informal
inquiries, and investigations by various U.S. and non-U.S. governmental and regulatory agencies, including but not limited to,
the SEC, Department of Justice, state attorneys general, FINRA, National Futures Association, and the U.K. Financial Conduct
Authority. The Company routinely cooperates with such examinations, inquiries and investigations, and they may result in the
commencement of civil, criminal, or administrative or other proceedings against the Company or its personnel.

Table of Contents
The Carlyle Group Inc.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
It is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of all pending investigations and legal proceedings and employment-
related matters, and some of the matters discussed above involve claims for potentially large and/or indeterminate amounts of
damages. Based on information known by management, management does not believe that as of the date of this filing the final
resolutions of the matters above will have a material effect upon the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
However, given the potentially large and/or indeterminate amounts of damages sought in certain of these matters and the
inherent unpredictability of investigations and litigations, it is possible that an adverse outcome in certain matters could, from
time to time, have a material effect on the Company’s financial results in any particular period.
The Company accrues an estimated loss contingency liability when it is probable that such a liability has been incurred
and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had recorded liabilities
aggregating to approximately $35 million for litigation-related contingencies, regulatory examinations and inquiries, and other
matters. The Company evaluates its outstanding legal and regulatory proceedings and other matters each quarter to assess its
loss contingency accruals, and makes adjustments in such accruals, upward or downward, as appropriate, based on
management’s best judgment after consultation with counsel. There is no assurance that the Company’s accruals for loss
contingencies will not need to be adjusted in the future or that, in light of the uncertainties involved in such matters, the ultimate
resolution of these matters will not significantly exceed the accruals that the Company has recorded.
Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries enter into contracts that contain a variety of
representations and warranties and provide general indemnifications. The Company’s maximum exposure under these
arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet
occurred. However, based on experience, the Company believes the risk of material loss to be remote.
In connection with the sale of the Company’s interest in its local Brazilian management entity in August 2021, the
Company provided a guarantee to the acquiring company of up to BRL 100.0 million ($18.8 million as of September 30, 2025)
for liabilities arising from tax-related indemnifications. This guarantee, which will expire in August 2027, would only come
into effect after all alternative remedies have been exhausted. The Company believes the likelihood of any material funding
under this guarantee to be remote.
Risks and Uncertainties
Carlyle’s funds seek investment opportunities that offer the possibility of attaining substantial capital appreciation.
Certain events particular to each industry in which the underlying investees conduct their operations, as well as general
economic, political, regulatory, and public health conditions, may have a significant negative impact on the Company’s
investments and profitability. The funds managed by the Company may also experience a slowdown in the deployment of
capital, which could adversely affect the Company’s ability to raise capital for new or successor funds and could also impact the
management fees the Company earns on its carry funds and managed accounts, and/or result in the impairment of intangible
assets and/or goodwill the case of the Company’s acquired businesses. Such events are beyond the Company’s control, and the
likelihood that they may occur and the effect on the Company cannot be predicted.
Furthermore, certain of the funds’ investments are made in private companies and there are generally no public markets
for the underlying securities at the current time. The funds’ ability to liquidate their publicly-traded investments are often
subject to limitations, including discounts that may be required to be taken on quoted prices due to the number of shares being
sold. The funds’ ability to liquidate their investments and realize value is subject to significant limitations and uncertainties,
including among others currency fluctuations and natural disasters.
The Company and the funds make investments outside of the United States. Investments outside the United States may be
subject to less developed bankruptcy, corporate, partnership and other laws (which may have the effect of disregarding or
otherwise circumventing the limited liability structures potentially causing the actions or liabilities of one fund or a portfolio
company to adversely impact the Company or an unrelated fund or portfolio company). Non-U.S. investments are subject to the
same risks associated with the Company’s U.S. investments as well as additional risks, such as fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates, unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, heightened risk of political and economic instability,
difficulties in managing non-U.S. investments, potentially adverse tax consequences, and the burden of complying with a wide
variety of foreign laws.

Furthermore, Carlyle is exposed to economic risk concentrations related to certain large investments as well as
concentrations of investments in certain industries and geographies.
Additionally, the Company encounters credit risk. Credit risk is the risk of default by a counterparty in the Company’s
investments in debt securities, loans, leases, and derivatives that result from a borrower’s, lessee’s, or derivative counterparty’s
inability or unwillingness to make required or expected payments. The Company is subject to credit risk should a financial
institution be unable to fulfill its obligations.
The Company considers cash, cash equivalents, securities, receivables, principal equity method investments, accounts
payable, accrued expenses, other liabilities, loans, senior notes, assets, and liabilities of Consolidated Funds and contingent and
other consideration for acquisitions to be its financial instruments. Except for the senior notes, subordinated notes, and
compensatory contingent and other consideration for acquisitions, the carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated
balance sheets for these financial instruments equal or closely approximate their fair values. The fair value of the senior and
subordinated notes is disclosed in Note 6, Borrowings.

Reimbursable expenses and other receivables from certain of the unconsolidated funds and portfolio companies relate to
advisory fees receivable and expenses paid on behalf of these entities. These costs generally represent costs related to the
pursuit of actual or proposed investments, professional fees, and expenses associated with the acquisition, holding, and
disposition of the investments. The affiliates are obligated at the discretion of the Company to reimburse the expenses. Based
on management’s determination, the Company may accrue and charge interest on amounts due from affiliate accounts at
interest rates ranging up to 7.05% as of September 30, 2025. The accrued and charged interest to the affiliates was not
significant for any period presented.
Notes receivable includes loans that the Company has provided to certain unconsolidated funds to meet short-term
obligations to purchase investments. Notes receivable as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 also include interest-
bearing loans of $19.1 million and $22.8 million, respectively, to certain eligible Carlyle employees, which excludes Section 16
officers and other members of senior management, to finance their investments in certain Carlyle sponsored funds. These
advances accrue interest at the WSJ Prime Rate minus 1.00% floating with a floor rate of 3.50% (6.25% as of September 30,
2025) and are collateralized by each borrower’s interest in the Carlyle sponsored funds.
These receivables are assessed regularly for collectability. Management fee receivable amounts determined to be
uncollectible are recorded as a reduction in revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. For all other
receivables, amounts determined to be uncollectible are charged directly to general, administrative and other expenses in the

The Company has recorded obligations for amounts due to certain of its affiliates. The Company periodically offsets
expenses it has paid on behalf of its affiliates against these obligations.
In connection with the Company’s initial public offering, the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement with the
limited partners of the Carlyle Holdings partnerships whereby certain subsidiaries of the Partnership agreed to pay to the limited
partners of the Carlyle Holdings partnerships involved in any exchange transaction 85% of the amount of cash tax savings, if
any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax realized as a result of increases in tax basis resulting from exchanges of Carlyle
Holdings Partnership units for common units of The Carlyle Group L.P.
Other Related Party Transactions
Aircraft Transactions
Entities controlled by our co-founders own aircraft that may be used for the Company’s business in the ordinary course of
its operations. The hourly rates that the Company pays for the use of these aircraft are based on current market rates for
chartering private aircraft of the same type. The Company incurred fees for the use of these aircraft of $0.4 million and $1.4
million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $0.6 million for both the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2024. All payments were paid directly to the manager of the aircraft, and a significant portion of
the payments were ultimately paid to or were for the benefit of certain co-founders.
BDC Preferred Shares
On May 5, 2020, the Company purchased 2,000,000 of the BDC Preferred Shares from CGBD in a private placement at a
price of $25 per share. Prior to the Exchange, as defined and discussed below, dividends were payable on a quarterly basis in an
initial amount equal to 7.0% per annum payable in cash, or, at CGBD’s option, 9.0% per annum payable in additional BDC
Preferred Shares. The BDC Preferred Shares were convertible at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, into the number of
shares of common stock equal to $25 per share plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends divided by an initial conversion
price of $9.50 per share, subject to certain adjustments.
In August 2024, to facilitate a merger between CGBD and another Carlyle-advised BDC (the “Merger”), the Company
agreed to exchange its 2,000,000 preferred shares into newly issued common shares of CGBD at a price equal to the net asset
value per common share on the date of completion of the Merger (the “Exchange”). The Merger and the Exchange were
completed on March 27, 2025, and the Company exchanged its preferred shares for 3,004,808 newly issued common shares of
CGBD based on the net asset value of $16.64 per common share of CGBD on that date. The preferred shares were cancelled
following the completion of the Exchange. The newly issued common shares of CGBD are subject to a tiered lock-up
agreement with a restriction period that expires in three equal tranches of the common shares over a period of two years and are
recorded at fair value using Level I inputs based on the CGBD common share price.
The Company received the final dividend distribution related to its BDC Preferred Shares in the first quarter of 2025. For
the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded dividend income from the BDC Preferred Shares of
$0.9 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded dividend income from the BDC
51

(Unaudited)
Preferred Shares of $0.8 million and $2.6 million, respectively. This was included in Interest and other income in the condensed
consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s investment in the BDC Preferred Shares, which was recorded at fair
value using Level III inputs based on the estimated conversion value, was $53.4 million as of December 31, 2024, and was
included in Investments, including accrued performance allocations, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Other Transactions
Senior Carlyle professionals and employees are permitted to participate in co-investment entities that invest in Carlyle
funds or alongside Carlyle funds. In many cases, participation is limited by law to individuals who qualify under applicable
legal requirements. These co-investment entities generally do not require senior Carlyle professionals and employees to pay
management fees or performance allocations, however, Carlyle professionals and employees are required to pay their portion of
partnership expenses.
Carried interest income from certain funds can be distributed to senior Carlyle professionals and employees on a current
basis, but is subject to repayment by the subsidiary of the Company that acts as general partner of the fund in the event that
certain specified return thresholds are not ultimately achieved. The senior Carlyle professionals and certain other investment
professionals have personally guaranteed, subject to certain limitations, the obligation of these subsidiaries in respect of this
general partner obligation. Such guarantees are several and not joint and are limited to a particular individual’s distributions
received.
The Company does business with some of its portfolio companies; all such arrangements are on a negotiated basis.
Substantially all revenue is earned from affiliates of Carlyle.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 primarily comprised the 21% U.S. federal
corporate income tax rate, the impact of U.S. state and foreign income taxes and disallowed executive compensation, offset by
non-controlling interest and equity-based compensation deductions. The effective tax rate for the three months ended
September 30, 2025 was negative primarily due to the tax benefit from the pretax loss incurred prior to the effect of non-
controlling interest and due to the deduction related to the excess tax benefit from the vesting of restricted stock units in the
quarter. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 primarily comprised the 21% U.S.
federal corporate income tax rate, the impact of U.S. state and foreign income taxes, and disallowed executive compensation,
primarily offset by equity-based compensation deductions and non-controlling interest. The effective tax rate for the nine
months ended September 30, 2024 also includes an increase related to other non-deductible expenses.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had federal, state, local and foreign taxes payable of
$90.6 million and $46.2 million, respectively, which is recorded as a component of accounts payable, accrued expenses and
other liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by federal and certain state, local and foreign tax
regulators. With a few exceptions, as of September 30, 2025, the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2021
through 2024 are open under the normal three-year statute of limitations and therefore subject to examination. State and local
tax returns are generally subject to audit from 2019 to 2024. Foreign tax returns are generally subject to audit from 2011 to
2024. Certain of the Company’s affiliates are currently under audit by federal, state and foreign tax authorities.
The Company does not believe that the outcome of the audits will require it to record material reserves for uncertain tax
positions or that the outcome will have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company
52

does not believe that it has any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax
benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months.
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) was signed into law. The IRA enacted a 15%
CAMT on the “adjusted financial statement income” of certain large corporations, which became effective on January 1, 2023.
The Company does not expect the IRA to have a material impact to its provision for income taxes given that any current year
payments that would be made under CAMT would be permitted to be carried forward and used as credits in future years
resulting in a deferred tax benefit. The Company will continue to monitor as additional guidance is released by U.S. Department
of the Treasury, the Internal Revenue Service, and other standard-setting bodies.
In October 2021, the OECD introduced a 15% global minimum tax under the Pillar Two GloBE model rules. There are a
number of key provisions under the rules that became effective in 2024 and others that will be phased in during 2025. Several
OECD member countries have enacted the tax legislation based on certain elements of these rules that became effective on
January 1, 2024, and additional countries have drafted or announced an intent to implement legislation. While Pillar Two has
not had a material impact to the Company’s provision for income taxes, the rules remain subject to significant negotiation and
potential change, and the timing and ultimate impact of any such changes on our tax obligations are uncertain. The Company
will continue to monitor as additional countries enact legislation, new parts of the regime come into force or additional
guidance is released by the OECD and other standard-setting bodies.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was signed into law. The OBBBA extends several
provisions from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act along with other domestic and international corporate tax provisions. The
OBBBA did not have a material impact on the Company’s provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2025, but the Company will continue to monitor as additional guidance is released by U.S. Department of the
Treasury, the Internal Revenue Service, and other standard-setting bodies.

13. Equity
Share Repurchase Program
The Board of Directors reset the total repurchase authorization of the Company’s previously approved share repurchase
program to $1.4 billion in shares of the Company’s common stock, effective as of February 6, 2024. Under the share repurchase
program, shares of the Company’s common stock may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, in
privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, including through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing and actual number of shares of
common stock repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements and price, economic, and market
conditions. In addition to repurchases of common stock, the share repurchase program is used for the payment of tax
withholding amounts upon net share settlement of equity-based awards granted pursuant to our Equity Incentive Plan or
otherwise based on the value of shares withheld that would have otherwise been issued to the award holder. The share
repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not have a specified expiration date. As of

The Board of Directors will take into account general economic and business conditions, as well as the Company’s
strategic plans and prospects, business and investment opportunities, financial condition and obligations, legal, tax, and
regulatory restrictions, other constraints on the payment of dividends by the Company to its common stockholders or by
subsidiaries to the Company, and other such factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant. In addition, the terms of the
Company’s credit facility provide certain limits on the Company’s ability to pay dividends.
14. Equity-Based Compensation
The Carlyle Group Inc. Amended and Restated 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan,” initially adopted
in May 2012 and as most recently amended and restated on May 29, 2024) is a source of equity-based awards permitting the
Company to grant to Carlyle employees, directors and consultants non-qualified options, share appreciation rights, common
shares, restricted stock units and other awards based on the Company’s shares of common stock. A total of 58,800,000 shares of
common stock are authorized for the grant of awards under the Equity Incentive Plan, of which a total of 26,197,170 shares of
the Company’s common stock remain available for grant as of September 30, 2025.

$257.8 million of taxes related to the net share settlement of equity-based awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2025,
which is included within financing activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
The Company recorded equity-based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, for restricted stock units of $90.7 million
and $121.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, with $15.9 million and
$23.1 million of corresponding deferred tax benefits, respectively. The Company recorded equity-based compensation expense,
net of forfeitures, for restricted stock units of $287.1 million and $355.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025
and 2024, respectively, with $52.6 million and $66.9 million of corresponding deferred tax benefits, respectively. As of
September 30, 2025, the total unrecognized equity-based compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock units was
$457.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average term of 1.9 years.
15. Segment Reporting
Carlyle conducts its operations through three reportable segments:
Global Private Equity – The Global Private Equity segment advises buyout, growth, real estate, and infrastructure &
natural resources funds. The segment also includes the NGP Carry Funds advised by NGP.
Global Credit –  The Global Credit segment advises funds and vehicles that pursue investment strategies including
insurance solutions, liquid credit, opportunistic credit, direct lending, asset-backed finance, aviation finance,
infrastructure credit, cross-platform credit products, and global capital markets.
Carlyle AlpInvest – The Carlyle AlpInvest segment advises global private equity programs that pursue secondary
purchases and financing of existing portfolios, managed co-investment programs, and primary fund investments.
The Company’s reportable business segments are differentiated by their various investment focuses and strategies.
Overhead costs are generally allocated based on cash-based compensation and benefits expense for each segment. The
Company’s earnings from its investment in NGP are presented in the respective operating captions within the Global Private
Equity segment.
Distributable Earnings. Distributable Earnings, or “DE,” is a key performance benchmark used in the Company’s
industry and is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is our Chief Executive Officer, in
making resource deployment and compensation decisions and in assessing performance of the Company’s three reportable
segments. The CODM also uses DE in budgeting, forecasting, and the overall management of the Company’s segments. The
CODM believes that reporting DE is helpful to understanding the Company’s business and that investors should review the
same supplemental financial measure that the CODM uses to analyze the Company’s segment performance. DE is intended to
show the amount of net realized earnings without the effects of the consolidation of the Consolidated Funds. DE is derived from
the Company’s segment reported results and is used to assess performance.
Distributable Earnings differs from income (loss) before provision for income taxes computed in accordance with U.S.
GAAP in that it includes certain tax expenses associated with certain foreign performance revenues (composed of performance
56

(Unaudited)
allocations and incentive fees), and does not include unrealized performance allocations and related compensation expense,
unrealized principal investment income, equity-based compensation expense, net income (loss) attributable to non-Carlyle
interests in consolidated entities, or charges (credits) related to Carlyle corporate actions and non-recurring items that affect
period-to-period comparability and are not reflective of the Company’s operational performance. Charges (credits) related to
Carlyle corporate actions and non-recurring items include: charges associated with the Conversion, charges (credits) associated
with acquisitions, dispositions or strategic investments, changes in the tax receivable agreement liability, amortization and any
impairment charges associated with acquired intangible assets, transaction costs associated with acquisitions and dispositions,
charges associated with earn-outs and contingent consideration including gains and losses associated with the estimated fair
value of contingent considerations issued in conjunction with acquisitions or strategic investments, impairment charges
associated with lease right-of-use assets, gains and losses from the retirement of debt, charges associated with contract
terminations and employee severance, and non-recurring items that affect period-to-period comparability and are not reflective
of the Company’s operating performance. Management believes the inclusion or exclusion of these items provides investors
with a meaningful indication of the Company’s core operating performance.
Fee Related Earnings. Fee Related Earnings, or “FRE,” is a component of DE and is used to assess the ability of the
business to cover base compensation and operating expenses from total fee revenues. FRE adjusts DE to exclude net realized
performance revenues, realized principal investment income, and net interest (interest income less interest expense). Fee
Related Earnings includes fee related performance revenues and related compensation expense. Fee related performance
revenues represent the realized portion of performance revenues that are measured and received on a recurring basis, are not
dependent on realization events, and which have no risk of giveback.
Asset information by segment is not disclosed because this information is not used by the CODM to make resource
deployment decisions or evaluate the performance of the Company’s segments.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Unless context suggests otherwise, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “Carlyle,” the “Company,”
“we,” “us,” and “our” refer to The Carlyle Group Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The following discussion and
analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Overview
We are one of the world’s largest global investment firms and deploy private capital across our business. We conduct our
operations through three reportable segments: Global Private Equity, Global Credit, and Carlyle AlpInvest (formerly, Global
Investment Solutions).
•Global Private Equity — Our Global Private Equity segment advises our buyout, growth, real estate, and infrastructure &
natural resources funds. The segment also includes the NGP Carry Funds advised by NGP. As of September 30, 2025, our
Global Private Equity segment had $163 billion in AUM and $101 billion in Fee-earning AUM.
•Global Credit — Our Global Credit segment advises funds and vehicles that pursue investment strategies including
insurance solutions, liquid credit, opportunistic credit, direct lending, asset-backed finance, aviation finance, infrastructure
credit, cross-platform credit products, and global capital markets. As of September 30, 2025, our Global Credit segment
had $208 billion in AUM and $167 billion in Fee-earning AUM.
•Carlyle AlpInvest — Our Carlyle AlpInvest segment advises global private equity programs that pursue secondary
purchases and financing of existing portfolios, managed co-investment programs, and primary fund investments. As of
September 30, 2025, our Carlyle AlpInvest segment had $102 billion in AUM and $64 billion in Fee-earning AUM.
We earn management fees pursuant to contractual arrangements with the investment funds that we manage and fees for
transaction advisory and oversight services provided to portfolio companies of these funds. We also typically receive a
performance fee from an investment fund, which may be either an incentive fee or a special residual allocation of income,
which we refer to as a performance allocation, or carried interest, in the event that specified investment returns are achieved by
the fund. Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), we are required to consolidate some of the
investment funds that we advise. However, for segment reporting purposes, we present revenues and expenses on a basis that
deconsolidates these investment funds. Refer to Note 15, Segment Reporting, to the condensed consolidated financial
statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information on the differences between our financial
results reported pursuant to U.S. GAAP and our financial results for segment reporting purposes.

Trends Affecting our Business
The third quarter of 2025 was one of continued optimism across markets. In the U.S., the S&P 500 and NASDAQ
sustained their upward climb, returning 8% and 11%, respectively. Broad enthusiasm for AI continues to drive sharp price
action, with just ten stocks accounting for 40% of U.S. stock market capitalization, the highest degree of concentration on
record. Moreover, eight of those companies operate in roughly the same sector and the earnings prospects of seven of them are
highly leveraged to AI. Relatively modest declines in data center capacity utilization, or extensions of AI monetization
timelines, could be enough to shift major stock market indexes. Stocks also performed well elsewhere. European stocks had a
better third quarter than second quarter, with the Euro Stoxx 50 up over 4%, compared to a 1% return in the respective periods;
meanwhile the Shanghai Composite and Nikkei 225 returned 13% and 11%, respectively, in the third quarter.
As of the end of the third quarter, U.S. public equity multiples were 20–30% above their 10-year average. Since the
pandemic, stock performance has become more divorced from traditional business quality metrics, such as top-line growth,
profit margins, and the stability of earnings over the cycle. Over the past five years, investors would have outperformed a
quality long portfolio by shorting a basket of stocks of the highest quality businesses, a notable inversion of historical patterns.
Much of this change is the result of the prevalence in public markets of both passive fund flows and short-term oriented retail
investors. The reduced role of institutional active investing as a share of overall public market activity has dampened
meaningful price discovery. By contrast, the frictions associated with exiting positions help to insulate private markets from

similar effects. With transaction prices set on the basis of underwritten return expectations over multiyear holding periods,
private markets abide by arithmetic constraints absent from listed markets. These constraints help to ensure that prices remain
tied to fundamentals, rather than liquidity flows, and that returns stem from earnings growth, rather than short-horizon
momentum. This discipline has been reflected in ongoing private equity transactions; across the U.S. buyout universe, median
purchase price multiples are still in line with the 10-year historical average.
Our proprietary portfolio data indicate U.S. economic underlying growth is resilient and expanded at an annualized rate
of roughly 2.7% in the third quarter. Household spending regained momentum, dominated by higher income households
buoyed by a surging stock market and insulated from higher rates through mortgages fixed at below-market rates. Growth was
also supported by business investment, which advanced at an annualized rate of nearly 5% over the quarter, powered by a
concentrated surge in AI‑related outlays. This includes investments spanning data center construction, graphics processing unit
(GPU) and server procurement, spending on related applications, and power and generation capacity. These investments—
though a relatively small slice of gross domestic product (GDP)—account for roughly 30–40% of overall growth. Crucially, the
financing mix skews heavily toward internally‑generated cash flows from mega‑cap technology firms, limiting the exposure to
higher interest rates.
Despite a steady economic outlook in the U.S., our portfolio data suggest that U.S. job growth has slowed with monthly
payroll gains during the third quarter averaging only 15,000–20,000. This slowdown may reflect both the impact of narrower
operating margins—likely due to tariffs—as well as a shrinking labor supply. Though most analysts assumed that the cost of
tariffs would manifest as higher consumer prices, inflation rates across affected categories have not yet matched what would be
implied by tariff revenue as some companies have absorbed higher tariffs in fear of weakened demand resulting from price
increases. At the same time, the shift to tighter immigration policy has sharply reduced U.S. labor force growth, with net
immigration near zero this year. Given that the domestic population is expected to grow just 14 basis points in 2025, only
modest monthly job gains are needed to maintain full employment. If the Federal Reserve interprets a labor-supply shortfall as a
sign of weak demand and cuts rates too aggressively, it could trigger wage-price pressures in 2026.
In Europe, the fiscal expansion in Germany has not yet been reflected in industrial order books, which continue to
contract. The trend over the past six months has not moved in the direction one might have hoped when the German
government announced its €500 billion fiscal package in the first quarter of 2025. In Asia, our data suggest that domestic
consumption in China is growing at its slowest pace in two years despite an improving outlook for China’s manufacturing
sector, where output appears to be growing at a 6.5% annual rate as exports once destined for the U.S. are channeled to other
markets. Our India portfolio data suggest domestic business volumes strengthened in the third quarter of 2025, with annual
growth averaging 7% over the quarter. While the increase in U.S. tariffs seems likely to reduce merchandise exports, the
domestic economy should benefit from the recently enacted Goods and Services Tax reform, which reduces domestic prices on
nearly 90% of goods, including an estimated 6% decline in the average price of discretionary consumer items.
Global mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity gained momentum in the third quarter of 2025, with year-to-date dollar
volumes nearly matching full-year 2024 levels. Transactions totaled about $1.3 trillion in the third quarter, up 21% from the
prior quarter and 42% from a year ago. However, the number of deals fell about 12% year-over-year as larger transactions
drove overall volume. Similarly, while general partners (GPs) announced $241 billion in leveraged buyouts during the quarter
—the highest total since 2007 and 72% higher than a year earlier—deal counts remained well below the average pace of the
2021–2022 post-pandemic boom, with just 10 transactions accounting for nearly two-thirds of the total volume.
Despite blockbuster dollar volumes, buyout exits remain muted. Exit dollar volumes totaled $101 billion, roughly flat
versus the prior quarter and down 7% year-over-year, with one transaction representing about 20% of the total. However, while
cumulative net outflows since early 2022 (when they first turned negative) remain significant at $(135) billion, data through the
second quarter of 2025, the latest quarter for which data are available, indicate global buyout funds have now recorded five
consecutive quarters of non-negative net distributions. The initial public offering (IPO) market showed strength in the third
quarter, with 28 U.S. exchange-listed offerings raising $15.5 billion—the highest level of activity in terms of both transactions
and volumes since late 2021—though most were concentrated in software, pharma/health-tech, and AI-related sectors. The
continued backdrop of fewer transactions, slower exits, and constrained liquidity creates an attractive environment for
secondaries strategies, which have historically performed well when the private equity market slows.
In the aftermath of the Tricolor Auto Group and First Brands Group bankruptcies in September of 2025, fears have risen
around the quality of underlying assets in the syndicated loan and private credit markets. Business development companies
(BDCs) have underperformed the broader equity market since July, and firms and funds with the greatest exposure to First
Brands have seen their prices fall substantially in the aftermath. In fact, private credit default rates have seen a recent trend of
improvement in 2025 after climbing in 2024 and excess demand for leveraged loans and credit over the available supply has
pushed high yield credit spreads to post-global financial crisis lows. Risk premiums for leveraged finance are exceedingly tight.

Portfolio finance’s unique structure of over-collateralization and sizable asset diversification may help to meaningfully mitigate
default risk and enhance capital preservation. Within our Global Credit portfolio, credit quality remains healthy. As of
September 30, 2025, the non-accrual rate across our entire direct lending platform is nearly half of the market-wide direct
lending non-accrual rate, and default rates in our U.S. CLO business are 40% of the market level.
Our investment activity in the third quarter of 2025 reflected trends in the broader markets. We deployed $11.8 billion
across our platform and realized proceeds of $6.1 billion in our traditional carry funds during the third quarter. Our carry fund
portfolio appreciated 2% in the third quarter, continuing to show relative stability against a backdrop of volatility in the global
equity markets. Within our Global Private Equity segment in the third quarter, our corporate private equity funds were flat as
market price decreases in certain publicly traded positions offset appreciation elsewhere, our infrastructure & natural resources
funds appreciated 5%, and our real estate funds appreciated 1%. Our Global Credit carry funds, which represent approximately
11% of the total Global Credit remaining fair value as of September 30, 2025, appreciated 4% in the third quarter. Carry funds
in our Carlyle AlpInvest segment appreciated 2% in the third quarter.
We had $16.9 billion in inflows in the third quarter of 2025 and $58.7 billion in inflows over the last twelve months as of
September 30, 2025, continuing the momentum from the first half of the year against a backdrop of significant market
uncertainty. Our inflows during the third quarter included $3 billion in our evergreen wealth products, which continue to be an
area of strategic focus.
The ongoing U.S. federal government shutdown has introduced meaningful uncertainty into capital markets and
regulatory workflows. While we have not experienced material impact in our portfolio to date as a result, we are monitoring the
potential impact a prolonged shutdown could have on our investment activity, including potentially postponing planned
realization activity such as initial public offerings or delaying deal pipelines as regulatory agencies operate at reduced capacity.

Key Financial Measures
Our key financial measures and operating metrics are discussed in the following pages. Additional information regarding
U.S. GAAP measures and our other significant accounting policies can be found in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Revenues
Revenues primarily consist of Fund management fees, Incentive fees, Investment income (including Performance
allocations, realized and unrealized gains of our investments in our funds, and other principal investments), as well as Interest
and other income.
Fund management fees. Fund management fees include management fees and transaction and portfolio advisory fees. We
earn management fees for advisory services we provide to funds in which we hold a general partner interest or to funds or
certain portfolio companies with which we have an investment advisory or investment management agreement. These fees are
largely from either traditional closed-end, long-dated funds, which are highly predictable and stable, or Perpetual Capital
products as defined below. Management fees also include catch-up management fees, which are episodic in nature and
represent management fees charged to fund investors in subsequent closings of a fund which apply to the time period between
the fee initiation date and the subsequent closing date. We also earn management fees on our CLOs and other structured
products. 
Transaction and portfolio advisory fees generally include capital markets fees generated by Carlyle Global Capital
Markets in connection with activities related to the underwriting, issuance and placement of debt and equity securities, and loan
syndication for our portfolio companies and third-party clients, which are generally not subject to rebate offsets as described
below with respect to our most recent vintages (but are subject to the rebate offsets set forth below for older funds).
Underwriting fees include gains, losses, and fees arising from securities offerings in which we participate in the underwriter
syndicate.
Transaction and portfolio advisory fees also include fees we receive for the transaction and portfolio advisory services we
provide to our portfolio companies. When covered by separate contractual agreements, we recognize transaction and portfolio
advisory fees for these services when the performance obligation has been satisfied and collection is reasonably assured. We are
generally required to offset our fund management fees by the transaction and advisory fees earned, which we refer to as “rebate
offsets.”
The recognition of portfolio advisory fees, transactions fees, and capital markets fees can be volatile as they are primarily
generated by investment activity within our funds, and therefore are impacted by our investment pace or other capital
transactions at our portfolio companies.
Incentive fees. Incentive fees consist of performance-based incentive arrangements pursuant to management contracts,
primarily from certain of our Global Credit funds, when the return on assets under management exceeds certain benchmark
returns or other performance targets. In such arrangements, incentive fees are recognized when the performance benchmark has
been achieved.
Investment income (loss). Investment income (loss) consists of our performance allocations as well as the realized and
unrealized gains and losses resulting from our equity method investments and other principal investments. 
Performance allocations consist principally of the performance-based capital allocation from fund limited partners to us,
commonly referred to as carried interest, from certain of our investment funds, which we refer to as the “carry funds.” Carried
interest revenue is recognized by Carlyle upon appreciation of the valuation of our 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 us pursuant to the
fund partnership agreement at each period end as if the funds were liquidated at such date. Accordingly, the amount of carried
interest recognized as performance allocations reflects our share of the fair value 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. As
a result, the performance allocations earned in an applicable reporting period are not indicative of any future period, as fair
values are based on conditions prevalent as of the reporting date. Refer to “—Trends Affecting our Business” for further
discussion.
For any given period, performance allocations revenue on our statement of operations may include reversals of previously
recognized performance allocations due to a decrease in the value of a particular fund that results in a decrease of cumulative
78
Table of Contents
performance allocations earned to date. Since fund return hurdles are cumulative, previously recognized performance
allocations also may be reversed in a period of appreciation that is lower than the particular fund’s hurdle rate. Additionally,
unrealized performance allocations reverse when performance allocations are realized, and unrealized performance allocations
can be negative if the amount of realized performance allocations exceed total performance allocations generated in the period.
The timing and receipt of realized performance allocations varies with the lifecycle of our carry funds and there is often a
difference between the time we start accruing performance allocations and realization. The timing of performance allocation
realizations from our Carlyle AlpInvest, Carlyle Aviation, and Abingworth funds is typically later than in our other carry funds
based on the terms of such arrangements.
Under our arrangements with the historical owners and management teams of AlpInvest and Abingworth, the amount of
carried interest to which we are entitled varies. In some cases, we are entitled to 15% of the carried interest in respect of
commitments from the historical owners of AlpInvest for the period between 2011 and 2020. In certain instances, carried
interest associated with the AlpInvest fund vehicles is subject to entity level income taxes in the Netherlands. Additionally, in
connection with the acquisition of Abingworth, we are entitled to 15% of carried interest generated from certain Abingworth
funds.
Realized carried interest may be clawed back or given back to the fund if the fund’s investment values decline below
certain return hurdles, which vary from fund to fund. This amount is known as the “giveback obligation.” In all cases, each
investment fund is considered separately in evaluating carried interest and potential giveback obligations. See Note 8,
Commitments and Contingencies, for more information.
Accrued performance allocations and accrued giveback obligations at a point in time assume a hypothetical liquidation of
the funds’ investments at their then current fair values. Each investment fund is considered separately in evaluating carried
interest and potential giveback obligations. These assets and liabilities will continue to fluctuate in accordance with the fair
values of the funds’ investments until they are realized. The Company uses “net accrued performance revenues” to refer to the
aggregation of the accrued performance allocations net of (i) accrued giveback obligations, (ii) accrued performance allocations
related compensation, (iii) performance allocations related tax obligations, and (iv) accrued performance allocations attributable
to non-controlling interests. Net accrued performance revenues exclude any net accrued performance allocations and incentive
fees that have been realized but will be collected in subsequent periods, as well as net accrued performance revenues which are
presented as fee related performance revenues when realized in our non-GAAP financial measures. Realized performance
allocation-related compensation that has not yet been paid is also excluded from our net accrued performance allocations.
In addition, realized performance allocations may be reversed in future periods to the extent that such amounts become
subject to a giveback obligation. The aggregate amount of giveback obligations realized since Carlyle’s inception totaled
$257.0 million, $175.6 million of which was related to various Legacy Energy Funds. Given that current and former senior
Carlyle professionals and other limited partners of the Carlyle Holdings partnerships are responsible for paying the majority of
the realized giveback obligation, only $87.1 million of the $257.0 million aggregate giveback obligation realized since
inception was attributable to Carlyle. The realization of giveback obligations for the Company’s portion of such obligations
reduces Distributable Earnings in the period realized. Further, each individual who holds equity interests in carried interest
generated by our funds and is a recipient of realized carried interest typically signs a guarantee agreement or partnership
agreement that personally obligates such person to return his/her pro rata share of any amounts of realized carried interest
previously distributed that are later clawed back. Accordingly, carried interest as performance allocation compensation is
subject to return to the Company in the event a giveback obligation is funded. Generally, the actual giveback liability, if any,
does not become due until the end of a fund’s life.
In addition, in our discussion of our non-GAAP results, we use the term “realized net performance revenues” to refer to
realized performance allocations and incentive fees from our funds, net of the portion allocated to our investment professionals,
and other employees and certain tax expenses associated with carried interest attributable to certain partners and employees,
which are reflected as realized performance allocations and incentive fees related compensation expense. See “—Non-GAAP
Financial Measures” and “—Segment Analysis” for the amount of realized net performance revenues recognized each period
and related discussion.
Investment income also represents the realized and unrealized gains and losses on our principal investments, including
our investments in Carlyle funds that are not consolidated, and our strategic investments in NGP as described below. Realized
principal investment income (loss) is recorded when we redeem all or a portion of our investment or when we receive or are due
cash income, such as dividends or distributions. A realized principal investment loss is also recorded when an investment is
deemed to be permanently impaired or worthless. Unrealized principal investment income (loss) results from changes in the fair
value of the underlying investment, as well as the reversal of previously recognized unrealized gains (losses) at the time an
investment is realized.
79
Table of Contents
We account for our investments in NGP under the equity method of accounting. Our investments in NGP include the
equity interests in NGP Management and the general partners of certain carry funds advised by NGP. Following the
restructuring of the terms of our strategic investment in NGP (the “Restructuring”), our equity interests in NGP Management
entitle us to an allocation of income equal to 55.0% of the management fee related revenues earned by NGP Management for
existing funds, and up to 55.0% for all NGP funds that held an initial closing after December 31, 2024, including all
management fees being retained by NGP for the years 2025 through 2028 on such future NGP funds. Our investment in the
general partners of the NGP Carry Funds entitle us to up to 47.5% of the performance allocations received from NGP fund
general partners. For further information regarding our strategic investments in NGP and the Restructuring, refer to Note 4,
Investments, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We record investment income (loss) for our equity income allocation from NGP management fee related revenues and
our share of any allocated expenses from NGP Management, as well as expenses associated with the compensatory elements of
the strategic investment and any impairment charges. We also record our equity income allocation from NGP performance
allocations in principal investment income (loss) from equity method investments rather than performance allocations in our
condensed consolidated statements of operations. We do not control or manage NGP. Moreover, we do not operate NGP’s
business, have representation on NGP’s board or serve as an investment advisor to any investment fund sponsored by NGP, nor
do we direct the operations of any of NGP’s portfolio companies. While we have consent rights over certain major actions by
NGP outside of the ordinary course of NGP’s business (including, for example, consent rights over items such as amendments
to the organizational documents of the entity in which we are invested, changes to the management fee streams earned by NGP
under its fund agreements, or the incurrence of certain debt by NGP and other similar items), we have no voting rights or
consent rights on any NGP investment committee that selects investments to be made by NGP funds.
Interest and other income. Interest and other income primarily represents reimbursement of certain costs incurred on
behalf of our funds, as well as interest income that we earn such as from our cash and money market accounts and other
investments, including CLO senior and subordinated notes.
Interest and other income of Consolidated Funds. Interest and other income of Consolidated Funds primarily represents
the interest earned on assets of consolidated CLOs.
Net investment income (loss) of Consolidated Funds. Net investment income (loss) of Consolidated Funds generally
measures the change in the difference in fair value between the assets and the liabilities of the Consolidated Funds. Income
(loss) indicates that the fair value of the assets of the Consolidated Funds appreciated more (less), or depreciated less (more),
than the fair value of the liabilities of the Consolidated Funds. Income or loss is not necessarily indicative of the investment
performance of the Consolidated Funds and does not impact the management or incentive fees received by Carlyle for its
management of the Consolidated Funds. The portion of the net investment income (losses) of Consolidated Funds attributable
to the limited partner investors is allocated to non-controlling interests. Therefore, income or loss is not expected to have a
material impact on the revenues or profitability of the Company. Moreover, although the assets of the Consolidated Funds are
consolidated onto our balance sheet pursuant to U.S. GAAP, ultimately we do not have recourse to such assets and such
liabilities are generally non-recourse to us. Therefore, income or loss from the Consolidated Funds generally does not impact
the assets available to our common stockholders.
Expenses
Compensation and benefits. Compensation includes salaries, bonuses, equity-based compensation, and performance
payment arrangements. Bonuses are accrued over the service period to which they relate.
We recognize as compensation expense the portion of performance allocations and incentive fees that are due to our
employees, senior Carlyle professionals, advisors, and operating executives in a manner consistent with how we recognize the
performance allocations and incentive fee revenue. These amounts are accounted for as compensation expense in conjunction
with the related performance allocations and incentive fee revenue and, until paid, are recognized as a component of the accrued
compensation and benefits liability. Compensation in respect of performance allocations and incentive fees is paid when the
related performance allocations and incentive fees are realized, and not when such performance allocations and incentive fees
are accrued. The funds do not have a uniform allocation of performance allocations and incentive fees to our employees, senior
Carlyle professionals, advisors, and operating executives. However, we generally allocate a range of 60% to 70% of
performance allocations and incentive fees to our employees.
In addition, we have implemented various equity-based compensation arrangements that require senior Carlyle
professionals and other employees to provide services over a service period of generally one year to four years in order to vest
in the applicable equity interests, which under U.S. GAAP will result in compensation charges over current and future periods.
80
Table of Contents
In certain of our equity-based compensation arrangements, vesting is based on the achievement of certain performance targets
or market conditions (see Note 14, Equity-Based Compensation, for additional information). Compensation charges associated
with all equity-based compensation grants are excluded from Fee Related Earnings and Distributable Earnings.
We may hire additional individuals and overall compensation levels may correspondingly increase, which could result in
an increase in compensation and benefits expense.  As a result of prior acquisitions, we have charges associated with contingent
consideration taking the form of earn-outs and profit participation, some of which are reflected as compensation expense.
General, administrative and other expenses. General, administrative and other expenses include occupancy and
equipment expenses and other expenses, which consist principally of professional fees, including those related to our global
regulatory compliance program, external costs of fundraising, travel and related expenses, communications and information
services, depreciation and amortization (including intangible asset amortization and impairment), bad debt expense, and foreign
currency transactions. We expect that general, administrative and other expenses will vary due to infrequently occurring or
unusual items, such as impairment of intangible assets or lease right-of-use assets and expenses or insurance recoveries
associated with litigation and contingencies. Also, in periods of significant fundraising, to the extent that we use third parties to
assist in our fundraising efforts, our general, administrative and other expenses may increase accordingly. Similarly, our
general, administrative and other expenses may increase as a result of professional and other fees incurred as part of due
diligence related to strategic acquisitions and new product development. Additionally, we anticipate that general, administrative
and other expenses will fluctuate from period to period due to the impact of foreign exchange transactions.
Interest and other expenses of Consolidated Funds. Interest and other expenses of Consolidated Funds consist primarily
of interest expense related primarily to loans of consolidated CLOs, professional fees and other third-party expenses.
Income taxes. Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method of accounting. Under this method,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, using currently enacted tax rates. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period in which the change is enacted. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. 
Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Entities. Non-controlling interests in consolidated entities represent the
component of equity in consolidated entities not held by us. These interests are adjusted for general partner allocations.
Earnings Per Common Share. We compute earnings per common share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per
Share. Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to the common shares of the
Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share
reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities. See Note 12, Earnings Per Common Share, to the condensed
consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Distributable Earnings. Distributable Earnings, or “DE,” is a key performance benchmark used in our industry and is
evaluated regularly in making resource deployment and compensation decisions, and in assessing the performance of our three
segments. We also use DE in our budgeting, forecasting, and the overall management of our segments. We believe that
reporting DE is helpful to understanding our business and that investors should review the same supplemental financial measure
that management uses to analyze our segment performance. DE is intended to show the amount of net realized earnings without
the effects of consolidation of the Consolidated Funds. DE is derived from our segment reported results and is an additional
measure to assess performance.
Distributable Earnings differs from income (loss) before provision for income taxes computed in accordance with U.S.
GAAP in that it includes certain tax expenses associated with certain foreign performance revenues (composed of performance
allocations and incentive fees), and does not include unrealized performance allocations and related compensation expense,
unrealized principal investment income, equity-based compensation expense, net income (loss) attributable to non-Carlyle
interest in consolidated entities, or charges (credits) related to Carlyle corporate actions and non-recurring items that affect
period-to-period comparability and are not reflective of the Company’s operational performance. Charges (credits) related to
Carlyle corporate actions and non-recurring items include: charges associated with the Conversion, charges associated with
acquisitions, dispositions, or strategic investments, changes in the tax receivable agreement liability, amortization and any
impairment charges associated with acquired intangible assets, transaction costs associated with acquisitions and dispositions,
charges associated with earn-outs and contingent consideration including gains and losses associated with the estimated fair
81
Table of Contents
value of contingent consideration issued in conjunction with acquisitions or strategic investments, impairment charges
associated with lease right-of-use assets, gains and losses from the retirement of debt, charges associated with contract
terminations and employee severance, and non-recurring items that affect period-to-period comparability and are not reflective
of the Company’s operating performance. We believe the inclusion or exclusion of these items provides investors with a
meaningful indication of our core operating performance. This measure supplements and should be considered in addition to
and not in lieu of the results of operations discussed further under “—Consolidated Results of Operations” prepared in
accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Fee Related Earnings. Fee Related Earnings, or “FRE,” is a component of DE and is used to assess the ability of the
business to cover base compensation and operating expenses from total fee revenues. FRE adjusts DE to exclude net realized
performance revenues, realized principal investment income from investments in Carlyle funds, and net interest (interest
income less interest expense). Fee Related Earnings includes fee related performance revenues and related compensation
expense. Fee related performance revenues represent the realized portion of performance revenues that are measured and
received on a recurring basis, are not dependent on realization events, and which have no risk of giveback.
Operating Metrics
We monitor certain operating metrics that are common to the asset management industry.
Fee-earning Assets under Management. Fee-earning assets under management or Fee-earning AUM refers to the assets
we manage or advise from which we derive recurring fund management fees. Our Fee-earning AUM is generally based on one
of the following, once fees have been activated:
(a)the amount of limited partner capital commitments, generally for carry funds where the original investment period
has not expired and for AlpInvest carry funds during the commitment fee period (see “Fee-earning AUM based on
capital commitments” in the table below for the amount of this component at each period);
(b)the remaining amount of limited partner invested capital at cost, generally for carry funds and certain co-
investment vehicles where the original investment period has expired (see “Fee-earning AUM based on invested
capital” in the table below for the amount of this component at each period);
(c)the amount of aggregate fee-earning collateral balance at par of our CLOs and other securitization vehicles, as
defined in the fund indentures (pre-2020 CLO vintages are generally exclusive of equities and defaulted positions)
as of the quarterly cut-off date;
(d)the external investor portion of the net asset value of certain carry funds (see “Fee-earning AUM based on net
asset value” in the table below for the amount of this component at each period);
(e)the fair value of Fortitude’s general account assets invested under the strategic advisory services agreement (see
“Fee-earning AUM based on fair value and other” in the table below);
(f)the gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage) of certain cross-platform credit and direct lending
products, excluding cash and cash equivalents for one of our business development companies (included in “Fee-
earning AUM based on fair value and other” in the table below); and
(g)the lower of cost or fair value of invested capital, generally for AlpInvest carry funds where the commitment fee
period has expired and certain carry funds where the investment period has expired, (included in “Fee-earning
AUM based on fair value and other” in the table below).

(1)Inflows represents limited partner capital raised by our carry funds or separately managed accounts for which management fees based on
commitments were activated during the period, the fee-earning commitments invested in vehicles for which management fees are based
on invested capital, the fee-earning collateral balance of new CLO issuances, closed reinsurance transactions at Fortitude, as well as
gross subscriptions in vehicles for which management fees are based on net asset value. Inflows exclude fundraising amounts during the
period for which fees have not yet been activated, which are referenced as Pending Fee-earning AUM.
(2)Outflows represents the impact of realizations from vehicles with management fees based on remaining invested capital at cost or fair
value, changes in basis for funds where the investment period, weighted-average investment period or commitment fee period has
expired during the period, reductions for funds that are no longer calling for fees, gross redemptions in our open-end funds, and outflows
from our liquid credit products. Distributions for funds earning management fees based on commitments during the period do not affect
Fee-earning AUM.
(3)Market Activity & Other represents realized and unrealized gains (losses) on portfolio investments in our carry funds based on the lower
of cost or fair value and net asset value, activity of funds with fees based on gross asset value, and changes in the fair value of Fortitude’s
general account assets covered by the strategic advisory services agreement.
(4)Foreign Exchange represents the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of our non-U.S. dollar denominated
funds. Activity during the period is translated at the average rate for the period. Ending balances are translated at the spot rate as of the
period end.
Refer to “—Segment Analysis” for a detailed discussion by segment of the activity affecting Fee-earning AUM for each
of the periods presented by segment.
Assets under Management. Assets under management or “AUM” refers to the assets we manage or advise. Our AUM
generally equals the sum of the following:
(a)  the aggregate fair value of our carry funds and related co-investment vehicles, and separately managed accounts, 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 and principal cash at par or aggregate principal amount of the notes of our
CLOs and other structured products (inclusive of all positions);
(c) the net asset value of certain carry funds;
(d)the fair value of Fortitude’s general account assets invested under the strategic advisory services agreement; and
(e) the gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage) of certain cross-platform credit and direct lending products,
plus the capital that Carlyle is entitled to call from investors in those vehicles pursuant to the terms of their capital
commitments to those vehicles.

The chart below presents Total AUM by segment at each period, in billions.

We include in our calculation of AUM and Fee-earning AUM the NGP Energy Funds that are advised by NGP. Our
calculation of AUM also includes third-party capital raised for the investment in Fortitude through a Carlyle-affiliated
investment fund and from strategic investors who directly invest in Fortitude alongside the fund. The AUM and Fee-earning
AUM related to the strategic advisory services agreement with Fortitude are inclusive of the net asset value of investments in
Carlyle products. These amounts are also reflected in the AUM and Fee-earning AUM of the strategy in which they are
invested.
For most of our Global Private Equity and Carlyle AlpInvest carry funds, 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,
depending on whether the original 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.
Our calculations of AUM and Fee-earning AUM may differ from the calculations of other asset managers. As a result,
these measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers. In addition, our calculation of
AUM (but not Fee-earning AUM) includes uncalled commitments to, and the fair value of invested capital in, our investment
funds from Carlyle and our personnel, regardless of whether such commitments or invested capital are subject to management
fees or performance allocations. Our calculations of AUM or Fee-earning AUM are not based on any definition of AUM or
Fee-earning AUM that is set forth in the agreements governing the investment funds that we manage or advise.
We generally use Fee-earning AUM as a metric to measure changes in the assets from which we earn recurring
management fees. Total AUM tends to be a better measure of our investment and fundraising performance as it reflects
investments at fair value plus available capital.

(1)Inflows generally reflects the impact of gross fundraising as well as closed reinsurance transactions at Fortitude and corporate
acquisitions during the period, if any. For funds or vehicles denominated in foreign currencies, this reflects translation at the average
quarterly rate.
(2)Outflows includes distributions net of recallable or recyclable amounts in our carry funds, related co-investment vehicles, and separately
managed accounts, gross redemptions in our open-end funds, outflows from our liquid credit products, and the expiration of available
capital.
(3)Market Activity & Other generally represents realized and unrealized gains (losses) on portfolio investments in our carry funds and
related co-investment vehicles, and separately managed accounts, as well as the net impact of fees, expenses and non-investment income,
change in gross asset value for our business development companies, changes in the fair value of Fortitude’s general account assets
covered by the strategic advisory services agreement, and other changes in AUM.
(4)Foreign Exchange represents the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of our non-U.S. dollar denominated
funds. Activity during the period is translated at the average rate for the period. Ending balances are translated at the spot rate as of the
period end.
Please refer to “—Segment Analysis” for a detailed discussion by segment of the activity affecting Total AUM for each
of the periods presented.
Available Capital. “Available Capital” refers to the amount of capital commitments available to be called for investments,
which may be reduced for equity invested that is funded via a fund credit facility and expected to be called from investors at a
later date, plus any additional assets/liabilities at the fund level other than active investments. Amounts previously called may
be added back to available capital following certain distributions. “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.
Perpetual Capital. “Perpetual Capital” refers to the assets we manage or advise which have an indefinite term and for
which there is no immediate requirement to return capital to investors upon the realization of investments made with such
capital, except as required by applicable law. Perpetual Capital may be materially reduced or terminated under certain
conditions, including reductions from changes in valuations and payments to investors, including through elections by investors
to redeem their investments, dividend payments, and other payment obligations, as well as the termination of or failure to renew
the respective investment advisory agreements. Perpetual Capital includes: (a) assets managed under the strategic advisory
services agreement with Fortitude, (b) our Core Plus real estate fund, (c) our business development companies and certain other
direct lending products, (d) Carlyle Tactical Private Credit Fund (“CTAC”), (e) our closed-end tender offer Carlyle AlpInvest
Private Markets (“CAPM”) and Carlyle AlpInvest Private Markets Secondaries (“CAPS”) funds, and (f) certain other structured
credit products. As of September 30, 2025, our total AUM and Fee-earning AUM included $112.9 billion and $108.1 billion,
respectively, of Perpetual Capital. Our Perpetual Capital total AUM and Fee-Earning AUM, exclusive of assets managed under
the strategic advisory services agreement with Fortitude, was $32.3 billion and $27.6 billion, respectively, as of September 30,
2025.
Performance Fee Eligible AUM. “Performance Fee Eligible AUM” represents the AUM of funds for which we are
entitled to receive performance allocations, inclusive of the fair value of investments in those funds (which we refer to as
“Performance Fee Eligible Fair Value”) and their Available Capital. Performance Fee Eligible Fair Value is “Performance Fee-
Generating” when the associated fund has achieved the specified investment returns required under the terms of the fund’s
agreement and is accruing performance revenue as of the quarter-end reporting date. Funds whose performance allocations are
86
Table of Contents
treated as fee related performance revenues are excluded from these metrics. As of September 30, 2025, our total AUM
included $237.9 billion of Performance Fee Eligible AUM.
Consolidation of Certain Carlyle Funds
The Company consolidates all entities that it controls either through a majority voting interest or as the primary
beneficiary of variable interest entities. The entities we consolidate are referred to collectively as the Consolidated Funds in our
condensed consolidated financial statements. The assets and liabilities of the Consolidated Funds are generally held within
separate legal entities and, as a result, the assets of the Consolidated Funds are not available to support our operating activities
and similarly the liabilities of the Consolidated Funds are non-recourse to us. As of September 30, 2025, our Consolidated
Funds represent approximately 3% of our AUM; 3% and 2% of our management fees for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2025, respectively; and 2% of our total investment income or loss on an unconsolidated basis for both the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2025.
We are not required under the consolidation guidance to consolidate in our financial statements most of the investment
funds we advise. However, we consolidate certain CLOs and certain other funds that we advise, and the number of funds we are
required to consolidate has been increasing as a result of the impacts of capital from our balance sheet invested in new products
and our indirect interest in funds through our investment in Fortitude (see Note 4, Investments). As of September 30, 2025, the
assets and liabilities of the Consolidated Funds were primarily related to our consolidated CLOs, which held approximately
$9.6 billion of total assets. Additionally, the Investments of Consolidated Funds included approximately $0.9 billion related to
investments that have been bridged to investment funds in our Global Private Equity segment.
Generally, the consolidation of the Consolidated Funds has a gross-up effect on our assets, liabilities and cash flows but
has no net effect on the net income attributable to the Company. The majority of the net economic ownership interests of the
Consolidated Funds are reflected as non-controlling interests in consolidated entities in the consolidated financial statements.
However, in certain Consolidated Funds, particularly those where we have elected to invest additional amounts or bridge
investments in new investment areas, the non-controlling interests are less significant.
The Consolidated Funds are not the same entities in all periods presented. The Consolidated Funds in future periods may
change due to changes in fund terms, formation of new funds, and terminations of funds. Because only a small portion of our
funds are consolidated, the performance of the Consolidated Funds is not necessarily consistent with or representative of the
combined performance trends of all of our funds.
For further information on our consolidation policy and the consolidation of certain funds, see Note 2, Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q.

Consolidated Results of Operations
The following table and discussion sets forth information regarding our condensed consolidated results of operations for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared on substantially the same basis for all historical periods presented; however, the consolidated funds are not the same
entities in all periods shown due to changes in fund terms and the creation and termination of funds. As further described above,
the consolidation of these funds primarily has the impact of increasing interest and other income of Consolidated Funds, interest
and other expenses of Consolidated Funds, and net investment income (losses) of Consolidated Funds in the year that the fund
is initially consolidated. The consolidation of these funds had no effect on net income attributable to the Company for the
periods presented.

Revenues
Fund management fees. Fund management fees increased $50.6 million, or 9%, for the three months ended September
30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, and increased $199.1 million, or 13%, for the nine
months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to the following:

(1)The nine months ended September 30, 2025 included approximately $19 million of aviation catch-up subordinated management fees. 
(2)Total increase in Fund management fees does not include our equity income allocation from NGP management fee related revenues. We do not control
NGP and account for our strategic investment in NGP as an equity method investment under U.S. GAAP. Therefore, Fund management fees associated
with NGP are included in Principal investment income (loss) in our U.S. GAAP results.
No fund generated over 10% of total fund management fees in any of the periods presented. Over the last twelve months
ended September 30, 2025, Fee-earning assets under management in our Carlyle AlpInvest and Global Credit segments grew
25% and 5%, respectively, while Global Private Equity decreased 2%. As a result, Fund management fees increased in Carlyle
AlpInvest and Global Credit, while Global Private Equity decreased, which was due in part to smaller buyout fund sizes in our
corporate private equity strategy and step-downs in rate or basis, partially offset by the activation of fees in certain products in
our Global Private Equity segment. The increase in catch-up management fees for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2025 was primarily attributable to our Carlyle AlpInvest segment. Fundraising for our most recent vintage of secondaries &
portfolio finance funds in our Carlyle AlpInvest segment concluded in the third quarter of 2025 and therefore the associated
catch-up management fees will not recur next quarter.
Fund management fees included transaction and portfolio advisory fees, net of rebate offsets, of $21.1 million and
$25.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $143.6 million and $75.1 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These fees primarily comprise capital markets fees
generated by Carlyle Global Capital Markets. Over 25% of the fees earned during the nine months ended September 30, 2025
related to the acquisition of a healthcare investment across our U.S., Europe, and Asia buyout funds in the first quarter. The
recognition of portfolio advisory fees, transactions fees, and capital markets fees can be volatile as they are primarily generated
by investment activity within our funds, and therefore are impacted by our investment pace. See “—Trends Affecting Our
Business” for further discussion on our investment activity and broader market trends.
Investment income (loss). Investment income (loss) decreased $2.4 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2025
compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, and decreased $1.7 billion for the nine months ended September 30,
2025 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The components of Investment income (loss) are included in the

Performance allocations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 included the following:
•In the Global Private Equity segment, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, reversals of
Performance allocations were primarily attributable to the impact of a decrease in the market prices of certain public
investments in CP VII and CAP V. Additionally, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, reversals of
Performance allocations were offset by accruals of Performance allocations resulting from appreciation in CP VIII.
•In the Global Credit segment, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Performance allocation
accruals were primarily driven by the impact of appreciation in CCOF II and CCOF III. During the nine months
ended September 30, 2025, Performance allocation accruals were also driven by the impact of appreciation in
SASOF V.
•In the Carlyle AlpInvest segment, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Performance allocation
accruals were primarily driven by the impact of appreciation in our secondaries & portfolio finance. During the nine
months ended September 30, 2025, Performance allocation accruals were also driven by the impact of appreciation
in our co-investment funds.

Table of Contents
Performance allocations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 included the following:
•In the Global Private Equity segment, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, performance
allocation accruals were primarily driven by appreciation in our CP VII fund, and to a lesser extent appreciation in
our CP VIII and CAP V funds, partially offset by the reversal of performance allocations in our CEP V and CP VI
funds due to portfolio depreciation.
•In the Global Credit segment, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, performance allocation
accruals were primarily driven by appreciation in our opportunistic credit funds.
•In the Carlyle AlpInvest segment, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, performance allocation
accruals were primarily driven by appreciation in our secondaries & portfolio finance and co-investment strategies.
See “—Trends Affecting Our Business” for further discussion on the macroeconomic, geopolitical and industry
landscape, and our investment activity.
Principal investment income. The increase in Principal investment income for the three months ended September 30,
2025 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024 primarily reflects the impact of a $48.5 million reversal of
previously recorded unrealized investment income in the three months ended September 30, 2024 from our Global Credit
products as a result of the Merger as discussed in Note 9, Related Party Transactions. The increase for the three months ended
September 30, 2025 was also impacted by an increase in other investment income, driven by unrealized market appreciation in
a corporate investment. These were partially offset by a decrease in unrealized investment income from Carlyle FRL.
The decrease in Principal investment income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to an impairment charge of $92.5 million and a $38.0 million reduction in
NGP accrued carry, both related to the restructuring of the terms of our strategic investment in NGP (see Note 4, Investments,
for more information).
Expenses
Compensation and benefits. Total compensation and benefits decreased $1.5 billion for the three months ended
September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, and decreased $1.0 billion for the nine
months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decreases for three and
nine months ended September 30, 2025 relative to the comparable prior year periods are primarily attributable to a decrease in
Performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation of $1.5 billion and $0.9 billion, respectively, and a decrease in
Equity-based compensation of $30.9 million and $68.0 million, respectively. The decrease in Performance allocations and
incentive fee related compensation was primarily driven by a decrease in Performance allocations, on which Performance
allocations and incentive fee related compensation is based. The decrease in Equity-based compensation was primarily driven
by lower amortization on performance-based stock awards, partially offset by additional equity awards granted in February
2025.
General, administrative and other expenses. General, administrative and other expenses increased $4.1 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, and increased $47.6
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase
for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to an increase in external fundraising costs, primarily
in our Carlyle AlpInvest segment, as well as an increase in IT expenses and professional fees. These were partially offset by a
decrease in foreign currency remeasurement adjustments of $13.1 million, reflecting a foreign exchange gain for the three
months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a foreign exchange loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024 driven
by the movement in EUR relative to USD.
The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to an increase in foreign currency
remeasurement loss of $13.1 million, reflecting the movement of EUR and GBP relative to USD, as well as an increase in
external fundraising costs and an increase in operating costs related to certain funds. These were partially offset by the impact
of an increase in liabilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 for litigation-related contingencies, regulatory
examination and inquiries, and other matters.

Net investment income (loss) of Consolidated Funds for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 included
unrealized gains of $153.6 million in a new collateralized fund obligation vehicle in our Carlyle AlpInvest segment, partially
offset by unrealized losses of $82.2 million on an infrastructure investment in consolidated funds in our Global Private Equity
segment.
Provision (benefit) for income taxes. The Company’s provision (benefit) for income taxes was $(26.7) million and $173.1
million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $98.2 million and $264.5 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately (31)% and
22% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 14% and 23% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
primarily comprised the 21% U.S. federal corporate income tax rate, the impact of U.S. state and foreign income taxes and
disallowed executive compensation, offset by non-controlling interest and equity-based compensation deductions. The effective
tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was negative primarily due to the tax benefit from the pretax loss
incurred prior to the effect of non-controlling interest and due to the deduction related to the excess tax benefit from the vesting
of restricted stock units in the quarter. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 primarily
comprised the 21% U.S. federal corporate income tax rate, the impact of U.S. state and foreign income taxes, and disallowed
executive compensation, primarily offset by equity-based compensation deductions and non-controlling interest. The effective
tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 also includes an increase related to other non-deductible expenses.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had federal, state, local, and foreign taxes payable of
$90.6 million and $46.2 million, respectively, which is recorded as a component of accounts payable, accrued expenses and
other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests in consolidated entities. Net income attributable to non-controlling
interests in consolidated entities was $111.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $20.0
million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and $148.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as
compared to $54.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. These amounts are primarily attributable to the net
earnings of the Consolidated Funds for each period, which are substantially all allocated to the related fund’s limited partners or
CLO investors, as well as net earnings from our insurance solutions business and certain other products that are allocated to
certain third-party investors. These amounts also reflect the net income attributable to non-controlling interests in carried
interest, giveback obligations, and cash held for carried interest distributions. The net income (loss) of our Consolidated Funds,
after eliminations, was $91.3 million and $8.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively,
and $113.2 million and $16.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. 
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following tables set forth information in the format used by management when making resource deployment
decisions and in assessing performance of our segments. These Non-GAAP financial measures are presented for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Our Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effects of unrealized
performance allocations net of related compensation expense, unrealized principal investment income, consolidated funds,

Segment Analysis
Discussed below is our DE and FRE for our segments for the periods presented. Our segment information is reflected in
the manner used by our chief operating decision maker to make operating and compensation decisions, assess performance, and
allocate resources.
For segment reporting purposes, revenues and expenses are presented on a basis that deconsolidates our Consolidated
Funds. As a result, segment revenues from management fees, realized performance revenues and realized principal investment
income (loss) are different than those presented on a consolidated U.S. GAAP basis because these revenues recognized in
certain segments are received from Consolidated Funds and are eliminated in consolidation when presented on a consolidated
U.S. GAAP basis. Furthermore, segment expenses are different than related amounts presented on a consolidated U.S. GAAP
basis due to the exclusion of fund expenses that are paid by the Consolidated Funds.

nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Realized net performance
revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were primarily attributable to realizations in CJP III and CRP VIII.
Realized net performance revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were primarily attributable to realizations in
CPP II, NGP XI, CAP IV, and CETP IV. Realized net performance revenues for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2024 were primarily attributable to realizations in CAP IV, CETP III, and CJP III. Additionally, the nine months ended
September 30, 2024 included realizations in CIEP I. While overall exit activity increased in the nine months ended September
30, 2025 relative to the comparable 2024 period, the mix of exits was more concentrated in funds not yet realizing performance
revenues.
Fee Related Earnings
Fee Related Earnings decreased $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three

the three months ended September 30, 2024, and decreased $23.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as

The decrease in fund management fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to step-downs in management fee basis on CEP V and CRP IX in the fourth
quarter of 2024, as well as net investment realizations in funds on which management fees are based on invested capital. These
were partially offset by the activation of fees in CJP V, which turned on fees in the fourth quarter of 2024, as well as CRP X,
which turned on fees on April 1, 2025. The impact of smaller buyout funds in our corporate private equity strategy is resulting
in, and may continue to result in, lower fund management fees relative to prior periods.
The increase in portfolio advisory and transaction fees, net and other for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to an increase in transaction fees. Transaction fees
are primarily generated by investment activity within our funds, and are therefore impacted by our investment pace. See “—
Trends Affecting Our Business” for further discussion on our investment activity and broader market trends.
General, administrative and other indirect expenses. General, administrative and other indirect expenses increased $7.7
million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, and
increased $17.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30,
2024. The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024
was primarily attributable to an increase in professional fees. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was
primarily attributable to an increase in costs related to funds in fundraising, an increase in professional fees, and a lower
reversal of value-added tax expense in Asia. These were partially offset by foreign exchange gains for the nine months ended
September 30, 2025 compared to foreign exchange losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

(1)Inflows represents limited partner capital raised by our carry funds or separately managed accounts for which management fees based
on commitments were activated during the period, and the fee-earning commitments invested in vehicles for which management fees
are based on invested capital. Inflows exclude fundraising amounts during the period for which fees have not yet been activated, which
are referenced as Pending Fee-earning AUM.
(2)Outflows represents the impact of realizations from vehicles with management fees based on remaining invested capital at cost or fair
value, changes in basis for funds where the investment period, weighted-average investment period or commitment fee period has
expired during the period, and reductions for funds that are no longer calling for fees. Realizations for funds earning management fees
based on commitments during the period do not affect Fee-earning AUM.
(3)Market Activity & Other represents realized and unrealized gains (losses) on portfolio investments in our carry funds based on the
lower of cost or fair value.
(4)Foreign Exchange represents the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of our non-U.S. dollar denominated
funds. Activity during the period is translated at the average rate for the period. Ending balances are translated at the spot rate as of the
period end.
Fee-earning AUM of $101.1 billion at September 30, 2025 decreased 1% from $102.3 billion at June 30, 2025. The net
decrease was due to:
•Outflows of $1.6 billion, driven by realization in funds that charge fees on invested capital, notably in the NGP
energy funds and CP VII, as well as redemptions in CPI.
Offsetting these decreases were:
•Inflows of $0.4 billion, primarily driven by investments in CPI.
Fee-earning AUM of $101.1 billion at September 30, 2025 increased 3% from $98.0 billion at December 31, 2024. The
net increase was due to:
•Inflows of $11.1 billion, which included the activation of management fees in CRP X, additional fee-paying capital
raised in CAP VI, and investments in our U.S. real estate, Asia buyout, and Europe buyout funds which charge fees
on invested capital; and
•Positive foreign exchange activity of $1.8 billion reflecting the translation of our EUR- and JPY-denominated funds
to USD.
Offsetting these increases were:
•Outflows of $9.6 billion, which included realizations in funds that charge fees on invested capital, notably in the
NGP energy funds and our U.S. buyout, Europe buyout, Asia buyout, and U.S. real estate funds, as well as the
expiration of fees in CP VI during the period, and a fee basis step-down in CIEP II.
Fee-earning AUM of $101.1 billion at September 30, 2025 decreased 2% from $103.5 billion at September 30, 2024. The
net decrease was due to:
•Outflows of $17.3 billion driven by realizations in funds that charge fees on invested capital, fee basis step-downs in
CRP IX, CEP V, and CIEP II, and the expiration of fees in CP VI during the period.

Offsetting these decreases were:
•Inflows of $14.6 billion primarily from the activation of fees in CRP X and CJP V, additional fee-paying capital
raised in CAP VI, and investments in funds which charge fees on invested capital; and
•Positive foreign exchange activity of $0.6 billion reflecting the translation of our EUR- and JPY-denominated funds
to USD.

(1)Inflows reflects the impact of gross fundraising during the period. For funds or vehicles denominated in foreign currencies, this reflects
translation at the average quarterly rate.
(2)Outflows includes distributions net of recallable or recyclable amounts in our carry funds, related co-investment vehicles, and
separately managed accounts, gross redemptions in our open-ended funds, and the expiration of available capital.
(3)Market Activity & Other generally represents realized and unrealized gains (losses) on portfolio investments in our carry funds, related
co-investment vehicles, and separately managed accounts, as well as the impact of fees, expenses and non-investment income, and
other changes in AUM.
(4)Foreign Exchange represents the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of our non-U.S. dollar denominated
funds. Activity during the period is translated at the average rate for the period. Ending balances are translated at the spot rate as of the

Total AUM was $163.5 billion at September 30, 2025, a decrease of 1% from $165.1 billion at June 30, 2025. The net
decrease was due to:
•Outflows of $2.7 billion driven by realizations in our U.S. buyout and U.S. real estate funds, as well as the NGP
energy funds.
Offsetting these decreases were:
•Inflows of $0.6 billion, driven by capital raised in our U.S. real estate funds; and
•Market appreciation of $0.6 billion, which reflected appreciation generally across the portfolio, net of depreciation
in CP VII ($0.4 billion) and CAP V ($0.3 billion), the portfolios of which were impacted by market price decreases
in certain public investments.
Total AUM was $163.5 billion at September 30, 2025, flat compared to $163.5 billion at December 31, 2024. This was
due to:
•Outflows of $12.3 billion, driven by realizations across the segment, notably in our U.S. buyout, power, and U.S.
real estate funds, as well as the NGP energy funds.
Offsetting these decreases were:
•Inflows of $6.2 billion, driven by new capital raised in our U.S. real estate and Asia buyout funds, as well as the
NGP energy funds;

Table of Contents
•Market appreciation of $3.1 billion, driven by appreciation in CP VII ($0.9 billion), CP VIII ($0.7 billion), and CGP
II ($0.5 billion), partially offset by depreciation in CEP V ($0.8 billion); and
•Positive foreign exchange activity of $3.0 billion reflecting the translation of our EUR- and JPY-denominated funds
to USD.
Fund Performance Metrics
Fund performance information for our investment funds that generally have at least $1.0 billion in capital commitments,
cumulative equity invested or total value as of September 30, 2025, which we refer to as our “significant funds,” is included
throughout this discussion and analysis to facilitate an understanding of our results of operations for the periods presented. The
fund return information reflected in this discussion and analysis is not indicative of the performance of The Carlyle Group Inc.
and is also not necessarily indicative of the future performance of any particular fund. An investment in The Carlyle Group Inc.
is not an investment in any of our funds. There can be no assurance that any of our funds or our other existing and future funds
will achieve similar returns.
The following table reflects the performance of our significant funds in our Global Private Equity business. Please see

*Net accrued fee related performance revenues for CPI are excluded from Net Accrued Performance Revenues. These amounts will be
reflected as fee related performance revenues when realized, and included in Fund level fee revenues in our segment results. There were no
accrued fee related performance revenues for CPI as of September 30, 2025.
**The IRR is incalculable, which occurs in instances when a distribution occurs prior to a Limited Partner capital contribution due to the use
of fund-level credit facilities.
(1)The fund step-down date represents the contractual step-down date under the respective fund agreements for funds on
which the fee basis step-down has not yet occurred. Funds without a listed Fee Initiation Date and Step-down Date have
not yet initiated fees.
(2)All amounts shown represent total capital commitments as of September 30, 2025. Certain of our recent vintage funds are
currently in fundraising and total capital commitments are subject to change.
(3)Represents the original cost of investments since inception of the fund. 
(4)Represents all realized proceeds since inception of the fund.
(5)Represents remaining fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest, and may include remaining
escrow values for realized investments.
(6)Multiple of invested capital (“MOIC”) represents total fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest,
divided by cumulative invested capital.
(7)Gross Internal Rate of Return (“Gross IRR”) represents an annualized time-weighted return on Limited Partner invested
capital, based on contributions, distributions and unrealized fair value as of the reporting date, before the impact of
management fees, partnership expenses and carried interest. For fund vintages 2017 and after, Gross IRR includes the
impact of interest expense related to the funding of investments on fund lines of credit. Gross IRR is calculated based on
the timing of Limited Partner cash flows, which may differ to varying degrees from the timing of actual investment cash
flows for the fund. Subtotal Gross IRR aggregations for multiple funds are calculated based on actual cash flow dates for
each fund and represent a theoretical time-weighted return for a Limited Partner who invested sequentially in each fund.
(8)For funds marked “NM,” IRR may be positive or negative, but is not considered meaningful because of the limited time
since initial investment and early stage of capital deployment. For funds marked “Neg,” IRR is considered meaningful
but is negative as of reporting period end.
(9)Net Internal Rate of Return (“Net IRR”) represents an annualized time-weighted return on Limited Partner invested
capital, based on contributions, distributions and unrealized fair value as of the reporting date, after the impact of all
management fees, partnership expenses and carried interest, including current accruals. Net IRR is calculated based on
the timing of Limited Partner cash flows, which may differ to varying degrees from the timing of actual investment cash
flows for the fund. Fund level IRRs are based on aggregate Limited Partner cash flows, and this blended return may differ
from that of individual Limited Partners. As a result, certain funds may generate accrued performance revenues with a
blended Net IRR that is below the preferred return hurdle for that fund. Subtotal Net IRR aggregations for multiple funds
are calculated based on actual cash flow dates for each fund and represent a theoretical time-weighted return for a
Limited Partner who invested sequentially in each fund.
(10)Represents the net accrued performance revenue balance/(giveback obligation) as of the current quarter end.
(11)Represents all realized proceeds combined with remaining fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried
interest.
(12)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.

Realized Principal Investment Income. Realized principal investment income increased $45.6 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, and increased $30.1 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily attributable to
dividend income received of $31.4 million from our equity method investment in Carlyle FRL during the three months ended
September 30, 2025. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2024, was partially offset by lower realized principal investment income from our CLOs.
Fee Related Earnings
Fee Related Earnings increased $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three

three months ended September 30, 2024, and increased $104.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, due to the following:

The increase in Fund management fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to the receipt of approximately $19 million of catch-up subordinated
management fees in certain aviation funds during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, due in part to the collection of
insurance proceeds and in part due to the sale of collateral in those vehicles, and an increase in management fees from our direct
lending business and CTAC. These were partially offset by lower management fees from our liquid credit business.
The increase in portfolio advisory and transaction fees, net and other fees for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2025 as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily driven by an increase in capital
markets fees. The recognition of capital markets fees can be volatile as they are primarily generated by investment activity. See
“—Trends Affecting Our Business” for further discussion on our investment activity and broader market trends.
Cash-based compensation and benefits expense. Cash-based compensation and benefits expense increased $7.3 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, and increased
$33.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024,
primarily due to an increase in accrued bonuses related to capital markets fees as well as higher headcount.

(1)Inflows represents limited partner capital raised by our carry funds or separately managed accounts for which management fees based
on commitments were activated during the period, the fee-earning commitments invested in vehicles for which management fees are
based on invested capital, the fee-earning collateral balance of new CLO issuances, closed reinsurance transactions at Fortitude, and
gross subscriptions in our vehicles for which management fees are based on net asset value.
(2)Outflows represents the impact of realizations from vehicles with management fees based on remaining invested capital at cost or fair
value, changes in basis for funds where the investment period, weighted-average investment period or commitment fee period has
expired during the period, reductions for funds that are no longer calling for fees, gross redemptions in our open-ended funds, and
outflows from our liquid credit products. Realizations for funds earning management fees based on commitments during the period do
not affect Fee-earning AUM.
(3)Market Activity & Other represents realized and unrealized gains (losses) on portfolio investments in funds or vehicles based on the
lower of cost or fair value or net asset value, activity of funds with fees based on gross asset value, and changes in the fair value of
Fortitude’s general account assets covered by the strategic advisory services agreement.
(4)Foreign Exchange represents the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of our non-U.S. dollar denominated
funds. Activity during the period is translated at the average rate for the period. Ending balances are translated at the spot rate as of the
period end.
Fee-earning AUM was $167.2 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of 3% from $162.8 billion at June 30, 2025. The
net increase was due to:
•Inflows of $9.0 billion, which were driven by over $4 billion of closed reinsurance transactions at Fortitude and
deployment across the platform, including the closing of two U.S. CLOs and two Euro CLOs.
Offsetting these increases were:
•Outflows of $4.9 billion, which included outflows from our liquid credit products and realizations across the
platform.
Fee-earning AUM was $167.2 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of 8% from $154.2 billion at December 31,
2024. The net increase was due to:
•Inflows of $21.3 billion, which were driven by nearly $9 billion of closed reinsurance transactions at Fortitude and
capital deployment across the platform, including the closing of four U.S. CLOs and two Euro CLOs;
•Positive market activity of $2.0 billion, which primarily reflected an increase in the fair value of assets covered by
the Fortitude strategic advisory services agreement, as well as increases in our cross-platform credit and direct
lending products; and
•Positive foreign exchange activity of $1.1 billion reflecting the translation of our EUR-denominated products to
USD.
Offsetting these increases were:
•Outflows of $11.4 billion, which were driven by outflows from our liquid credit products and realizations in our
aviation and opportunistic credit funds.

Table of Contents
Fee-earning AUM was $167.2 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of 5% from $159.2 billion at September 30,
2024. The net increase was due to:
•Inflows of $26.4 billion, which reflected capital deployment across the platform, notably in our liquid credit
products, including the closing of eight U.S. CLOs and three Euro CLOs, and asset-backed finance, direct lending,
and opportunistic credit funds, as well as nearly $9 billion of closed reinsurance transactions at Fortitude.
Offsetting these increases were:
•Outflows of $15.0 billion, which included outflows from our liquid credit products and realizations across the
platform; and
•Negative market activity of $3.9 billion, which primarily reflected a decrease in the fair value of assets covered by
the Fortitude strategic advisory services agreement, partially offset by increases in our cross-platform credit
products.

Total AUM was $208.5 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of 3% compared to $203.0 billion at June 30, 2025.
The net increase was due to:
•Inflows of $9.9 billion, which were driven by capital raised in our liquid credit products, including the closing of
two U.S. CLOs and two Euro CLOs, and asset-backed finance products, as well as over $4 billion of closed
reinsurance transactions at Fortitude; and
•Positive market activity of $1.9 billion, primarily from an increase in the fair value of our cross-platform credit,
opportunistic credit, and direct lending products.
Offsetting these increases were:
•Outflows of $6.3 billion for the period, which primarily reflected outflows from our liquid credit products and
realizations across the platform, notably in our asset-backed finance products.

Fund Performance Metrics
Fund performance information for certain of our Global Credit funds is included throughout this discussion and analysis
to facilitate an understanding of our results of operations for the periods presented. The fund return information reflected in this
discussion and analysis is not indicative of the performance of The Carlyle Group Inc. and is also not necessarily indicative of
the future performance of any particular fund. An investment in The Carlyle Group Inc. is not an investment in any of our
funds. There can be no assurance that any of our funds or our other existing and future funds will achieve similar returns.

(1)Represents the original cost of investments since the inception of the fund. For CSP IV, reflects amounts net of
investment level recallable proceeds which is adjusted to reflect recyclability of invested capital for the purpose of
calculating the fund MOIC.
(2)Represents all realized proceeds since inception of the fund.
(3)Represents remaining fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest, and may include remaining
escrow values for realized investments.
(4)Multiple of invested capital (“MOIC”) represents total fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried
interest, divided by cumulative invested capital.
(5)Gross Internal Rate of Return (“Gross IRR”) represents an annualized time-weighted return on Limited Partner invested
capital, based on contributions, distributions and unrealized fair value as of the reporting date, before the impact of
management fees, partnership expenses and carried interest. For fund vintages 2017 and after, Gross IRR includes the
impact of interest expense related to the funding of investments on fund lines of credit. Gross IRR is calculated based
on the timing of Limited Partner cash flows, which may differ to varying degrees from the timing of actual investment
cash flows for the fund. Subtotal Gross IRR aggregations for multiple funds are calculated based on actual cash flow

dates for each fund and represent a theoretical time-weighted return for a Limited Partner who invested sequentially in
each fund.
(6)Net Internal Rate of Return (“Net IRR”) represents an annualized time-weighted return on Limited Partner invested
capital, based on contributions, distributions and unrealized fair value as of the reporting date, after the impact of all
management fees, partnership expenses and carried interest, including current accruals. Net IRR is calculated based on
the timing of Limited Partner cash flows, which may differ to varying degrees from the timing of actual investment cash
flows for the fund. Fund level IRRs are based on aggregate Limited Partner cash flows, and this blended return may
differ from that of individual Limited Partners. As a result, certain funds may generate accrued performance revenues
with a blended Net IRR that is below the preferred return hurdle for that fund. Subtotal Net IRR aggregations for
multiple funds are calculated based on actual cash flow dates for each fund and represent a theoretical time-weighted
return for a Limited Partner who invested sequentially in each fund.
(7)Represents the net accrued performance revenue balance/(giveback obligation) as of the current quarter end.
(8)For funds marked “NM,” IRR may be positive or negative, but is not considered meaningful because of the limited time

Realized Principal Investment Income. Realized principal investment income increased $5.2 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024.  Realized principal investment income
increased $22.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30,
2024, primarily driven by our investment in the CAPM funds.
Fee Related Earnings
Fee Related Earnings increased $40.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three
months ended September 30, 2024, and increased $99.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to

Fee Revenues. Fee revenues increased $59.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the
three months ended September 30, 2024, and increased $143.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, driven by an increase in Fund management fees of $47.3 million and
$113.8 million, respectively, and an increase in Fee related performance revenues of $11.6 million and $29.3 million,
respectively. The increase in Fund management fees was primarily driven by the impact of fundraising in our most recent
vintage of secondaries & portfolio finance funds. Fund management fees included catch-up management fees of $31.1 million
and $55.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, an increase of $24.2 million and
$46.0 million, respectively, relative to the comparable 2024 periods. Fundraising for our most recent vintage of secondaries &
portfolio finance funds concluded in the third quarter and therefore these catch-up management fees will not recur next quarter.
114
Table of Contents
Our CAPM funds also contributed to the increase in Fund management fees, and drove the increase in Fee related performance
revenues due to its growing capital base and performance.
Cash-based compensation and benefits expense. Cash-based compensation and benefits expense increased $9.3 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, and increased
$25.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024,
primarily due to an increase in headcount and an increase in compensation associated with fee related performance revenues.
General, administrative and other indirect expenses. General, administrative and other indirect expenses increased $9.4
million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, and
increased $17.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 30,
2024, primarily due to higher external fundraising costs.

(1)Inflows represents limited partner capital raised by our carry funds or separately managed accounts for which management fees based
on commitments were activated during the period and the fee-earning commitments invested in vehicles for which management fees are
based on invested capital. Inflows exclude fundraising amounts during the period for which fees have not yet been activated, which are
referenced as Pending Fee-earning AUM.
(2)Outflows represents the impact of realizations from vehicles with management fees based on remaining invested capital at cost or fair
value, changes in basis for funds where the investment period, weighted-average investment period, or commitment fee period has
expired during the period, and reductions for funds that are no longer calling for fees. Distributions for funds earning management fees
based on commitments during the period do not affect Fee-earning AUM.

(1)Includes private equity and mezzanine primary fund investments, secondary fund investments and co-investments
originated by AlpInvest. Excluded from the performance information shown are: (a) investments that were not originated
by AlpInvest (i.e., AlpInvest did not make the original investment decision or recommendation); (b) Direct Investments,
which was spun off from AlpInvest in 2005; (c) Carlyle AlpInvest Private Markets (“CAPM”); (d) Carlyle AlpInvest
Private Markets Secondaries (“CAPS”); and (e) LP co-investment vehicles managed by AlpInvest. As of September 30,
2025, these excluded portfolios amounted to approximately $15.1 billion of AUM in the aggregate.
(2)Represents the original cost of investments since inception of the fund.
(3)To exclude the impact of FX, all foreign currency cash flows have been converted to the currency representing a majority
of the capital committed to the relevant fund at the reporting period spot rate.
(4)Represents all realized proceeds combined with remaining fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried
interest.
(5)Multiple of invested capital (“MOIC”) represents total fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest,
divided by cumulative invested capital.

(6)Gross Internal Rate of Return (“Gross IRR”) represents the annualized IRR for the period indicated on Limited Partner
invested capital based on investment contributions, distributions and unrealized value of the underlying investments, before
management fees, expenses and carried interest at the AlpInvest level.
(7)Net Internal Rate of Return (“Net IRR”) represents the annualized IRR for the period indicated on Limited Partner invested
capital based on investment contributions, distributions and unrealized value of the underlying investments, after
management fees, expenses and carried interest. Fund level IRRs are based on aggregate Limited Partner cash flows, and
this blended return may differ from that of individual Limited Partners. As a result, certain funds may generate accrued
performance revenues with a blended Net IRR that is below the preferred return hurdle for that fund. 
(8)“ASF” stands for AlpInvest Secondaries Fund, “ACF” stands for AlpInvest Co-Investment Fund, and “SMAs” are
Separately Managed Accounts. “ASF - SMAs” and “ACF - SMAs” reflect the aggregated portfolios of investments held by
SMAs within the relevant strategy, which invest alongside the relevant ASF or ACF (as applicable). Strategic SMAs reflect
the aggregated portfolios of co-investments made by SMAs sourced from the SMA investor’s own private equity fund
investment portfolio. Other SMAs reflect the aggregated portfolios of investments within the relevant strategy that began
making investments in the corresponding time periods. Co-Investments SMAs 2014-2016 does not include two SMAs that
started in 2016 but invested a substantial majority alongside ACF VII. These two SMAs have instead been grouped with
ACF VII - SMAs. An SMA may pursue multiple investment strategies and make commitments over multiple years.
(9)Includes ASF VIII - SMAs, ACF IX - SMAs, AlpInvest Atom Fund, AlpInvest Atom Fund II, all mezzanine investment
portfolios, all ‘clean technology’ private equity investment portfolios, all strategic portfolio finance SMAs, all AlpInvest
senior portfolio lending SMAs, and any state-focused investment mandate portfolios.
(10)For funds marked “NM,” IRR may be positive or negative, but is not considered meaningful because of the limited time
since initial investment and early stage of capital deployment. For funds marked “Neg,” IRR is considered meaningful but
is negative as of reporting period end. 
(11)For purposes of aggregation, funds that report in foreign currency have been converted to U.S. dollars at the reporting
period spot rate. 
(12)Represents the net accrued performance revenue balance/(giveback obligation) as of the current quarter end. Total Net
Accrued Carry excludes net accrued carry which was retained as part of the sale of MRE on April 1, 2021. There was no
net accrued carry balance for MRE as of September 30, 2025.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Historical Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have historically required limited capital resources to support the working capital and operating needs of our
business. Our management fees have largely covered our operating costs and all realized performance allocations, after
covering the related compensation, are available for distribution to stockholders. Approximately 95% – 97% of all capital
commitments to our funds are provided by our fund investors, with the remaining amount typically funded by Carlyle, our
senior Carlyle professionals, advisors, and other professionals. We may elect to invest additional amounts in funds focused on
new investment areas. We may also invest in or alongside our funds and may transfer those investments to newly developed
products.
Our Sources of Liquidity
We have multiple sources of liquidity to meet our capital needs, including cash on hand, annual cash flows, accumulated
earnings, cash we receive from our notes offerings, and funds from our senior revolving credit facility, which had $1.0 billion
of available capacity as of September 30, 2025. Although we may consider other financings to invest in growing our business,
such as the $800.0 million senior note offering during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we believe these sources will be
sufficient to fund our capital needs for at least the next twelve months. We believe we will meet longer-term expected future
cash requirements and obligations through a combination of existing cash and cash equivalent balances, cash flow from
operations, accumulated earnings, and amounts available for borrowing from our senior revolving credit facility or other
financings.
Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents were approximately $2.2 billion at September 30, 2025. However,
a portion of this cash is allocated for specific business purposes, including, but not limited to: (i) performance allocations and
incentive fee related cash that has been received but not yet distributed as performance allocations and incentive fee related
compensation and amounts owed to non-controlling interests, (ii) proceeds received from realized investments that are allocable
to non-controlling interests, and (iii) regulatory capital.

Table of Contents
Corporate Treasury Investments. These investments represent investments in U.S. Treasury and government agency
obligations, commercial paper, certificates of deposit, other investment grade securities and other investments with original
maturities of greater than three months when purchased.
After deducting cash amounts allocated to the specific requirements mentioned above, the remaining cash, cash
equivalents, and corporate treasury investments (if any), was approximately $2.1 billion as of September 30, 2025. This
remaining amount will be used towards our primary liquidity needs, as outlined in the next section. This amount does not take
into consideration ordinary course of business payables and reserves for specific business purposes.
Senior Revolving Credit Facility. The capacity under the amended and restated revolving credit facility is $1.0 billion,
which was amended in May 2025 to extend the maturity date from April 29, 2027 to May 29, 2030. The Company’s borrowing
capacity is subject to the ability of the financial institutions in the banking syndicate to fulfill their respective obligations under
the revolving credit facility. Principal amounts outstanding under the amended and restated revolving credit facility accrue
interest, at the option of the borrowers, either (a) at an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin not to exceed 0.50% per
annum, or (b) at SOFR (or similar benchmark rate for non-U.S. dollar borrowings) plus a 0.10% adjustment and an applicable
margin not to exceed 1.50% per annum (5.23% at September 30, 2025). As of September 30, 2025, there were no amounts
outstanding under the senior revolving credit facility.
The senior revolving credit facility is unsecured. We are required to maintain management fee-earning assets (as defined
in the amended and restated senior revolving credit facility) of at least $156.9 billion and a total leverage ratio of less than 4.0 to
1.0, in each case, tested on a quarterly basis. Non-compliance with any of the financial or non-financial covenants without cure
or waiver would constitute an event of default under the senior revolving credit facility. An event of default resulting from a
breach of certain financial or non-financial covenants may result, at the option of the lenders, in an acceleration of the principal
and interest outstanding, and a termination of the senior revolving credit facility. The senior revolving credit facility also
contains other customary events of default, including defaults based on events of bankruptcy and insolvency, nonpayment of
principal, interest or fees when due, breach of specified covenants, change in control, and material inaccuracy of representations
and warranties.
Global Credit Revolving Credit Facility. Certain subsidiaries of the Company are parties to a revolving line of credit,
primarily intended to support certain lending activities within the Global Credit segment. As currently amended, the Global
Credit Revolving Credit Facility provides for a revolving line of credit with a capacity of $300 million, which matures in
September 2027, and a second revolving line of credit with a capacity of $200 million, which the Company amended in August
2025 to extend the maturity date to August 19, 2026.
The Company’s borrowing capacity is subject to the ability of the financial institutions in the banking syndicate to fulfill
their respective obligations under the Global Credit Revolving Credit Facility. Principal amounts outstanding accrue interest at
applicable SOFR or Eurocurrency rates plus an applicable margin of 2.00% or an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin
of 1.00%. As of September 30, 2025, there was no borrowing outstanding under the Global Credit Revolving Credit Facility.
CLO Borrowings. For certain of our CLOs, the Company finances a portion of its investment in the CLOs through the
proceeds received from term loans and other financing arrangements with financial institutions or other financing arrangements. 
The Company’s CLO borrowings were $337.0 million at September 30, 2025. The CLO borrowings are secured by the
Company’s investments in the respective CLO, have a general unsecured interest in the Carlyle entity that manages the CLO
and generally do not have recourse to any other Carlyle entity. As of September 30, 2025, $318.3 million of these borrowings
are secured by investments attributable to The Carlyle Group Inc. See Note 6, Borrowings, to the condensed consolidated
financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information on our CLO borrowings.
Senior Notes. The Company and certain indirect finance subsidiaries of the Company have issued senior notes, on which
interest is payable semi-annually, as discussed below. The senior notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the
respective subsidiary and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Company and each of the
Carlyle Holdings partnerships. The indentures governing each of the senior notes contain customary covenants that, among
other things, limit the issuers’ and the guarantors’ ability, subject to certain exceptions, to incur indebtedness secured by liens
on voting stock or profit participating equity interests of their subsidiaries or merge, consolidate or sell, transfer or lease assets.
The notes also contain customary events of default. All or a portion of the notes may be redeemed at our option, in whole or in
part, at any time and from time to time, prior to their stated maturity, at the make-whole redemption price set forth in the notes.
If a change of control repurchase event occurs, the notes are subject to repurchase at the repurchase price as set forth in the
notes.

3.500% Senior Notes. In September 2019, Carlyle Finance Subsidiary L.L.C. issued $425.0 million of 3.500% senior
notes due September 19, 2029 at 99.841% of par.
5.050% Senior Notes. In September 2025, the Company issued $800.0 million of 5.050% senior notes due September 19,
2035 at 99.767% of par.
5.625% Senior Notes. In March 2013, Carlyle Holdings II Finance L.L.C. issued $400.0 million of 5.625% senior notes
due March 30, 2043 at 99.583% of par. In March 2014, an additional $200.0 million of these notes were issued at 104.315% of
par and are treated as a single class with the already outstanding $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of these notes.
5.650% Senior Notes. In September 2018, Carlyle Finance L.L.C. issued $350.0 million of 5.650% senior notes due
September 15, 2048 at 99.914% of par.
Subordinated Notes. In May and June 2021, Carlyle Finance L.L.C. issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of
4.625% subordinated notes due May 15, 2061. The Subordinated Notes are unsecured and subordinated obligations of the issuer
and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a subordinated basis, by the Company, each of the
Carlyle Holdings partnerships, and CG Subsidiary Holdings L.L.C., an indirect subsidiary of the Company. The indentures
governing the Subordinated Notes contain customary covenants that, among other things, limit the issuers’ and the guarantors’
ability, subject to certain exceptions, to incur indebtedness ranking on a parity with the Subordinated Notes or indebtedness
ranking junior to the Subordinated Notes secured by liens on voting stock or profit participating equity interests of their
subsidiaries or merge, consolidate or sell, transfer or lease all or substantially all of their assets. The Subordinated Notes also
contain customary events of default. All or a portion of the notes may be redeemed at our option, in whole or in part, at any
time and from time to time on or after June 15, 2026, prior to their stated maturity, at a redemption price equal to their principal
amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption. If interest due on the Subordinated Notes
is deemed to no longer be deductible in the U.S., a “Tax Redemption Event,” the Subordinated Notes may be redeemed, in
whole, but not in part, within 120 days of the occurrence of such event at a redemption price equal to their principal amount
plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption. In addition, the Subordinated Notes may be
redeemed, in whole, but not in part, at any time prior to May 15, 2026, within 90 days of the rating agencies determining that
the Subordinated Notes should no longer receive partial equity treatment pursuant to the rating agency’s criteria, a “rating
agency event,” at a redemption price equal to 102% of their principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but
excluding, the date of redemption.
Obligations of CLOs. Loans payable of the Consolidated Funds primarily comprise amounts due to holders of debt
securities issued by the CLOs. We are not liable for any loans payable of the CLOs. Loans payable of the CLOs are
collateralized by the assets held by the CLOs and the assets of one CLO may not be used to satisfy the liabilities of another.
This collateral consists of cash and cash equivalents, corporate loans, corporate bonds and other securities.
Realized Performance Allocation Revenues. Another source of liquidity we may use to meet our capital needs is the
realized performance allocation revenues generated by our investment funds. Performance allocations are generally realized
when an underlying investment is profitably disposed of and the fund’s cumulative returns are in excess of the preferred return.
For certain funds, performance allocations are realized once all invested capital and expenses have been returned to the fund’s
investors and the fund’s cumulative returns are in excess of the preferred return. Incentive fees earned on our CLO vehicles
generally are paid upon the dissolution of such vehicles.

minus net purchases) minus beginning remaining investment fair market value divided by beginning remaining investment fair
market value. Amounts are fund only, and do not include coinvestments.
Realized Principal Investment Income. Another source of liquidity we may use to meet our capital needs is the realized
principal investment income generated by our equity method investments and other principal investments. Principal investment
income is realized when we redeem all or a portion of our investment or when we receive or are due cash income, such as
dividends or distributions. Certain of the investments attributable to The Carlyle Group Inc. (excluding certain general partner
interests, certain strategic investments, and investments in certain CLOs) may be sold at our discretion as a source of liquidity.

Our Liquidity Needs
We generally use our working capital and cash flows to invest in growth initiatives, service our debt, fund the working
capital needs of our business and investment funds and return capital to our common stockholders in the form of dividends or
stock repurchases.
In the future, we expect that our primary liquidity needs will be to: 
•provide capital to facilitate the growth of our existing business lines;
•provide capital to facilitate our expansion into new, complementary business lines, including acquisitions;
•pay operating expenses, including compensation and compliance costs and other obligations as they arise;
•fund costs of litigation and contingencies, including related legal costs;
•fund the capital investments in our funds;
•fund capital expenditures;
•repay borrowings and related interest costs and expenses;
•pay earn-outs and contingent cash consideration associated with our acquisitions and strategic investments;
123
Table of Contents
•pay income taxes, including corporate income taxes;
•pay dividends to our common stockholders in accordance with our dividend policy;
•repurchase our common stock and pay any associated taxes; and
•settle tax withholding obligations in connection with net share settlements of equity-based awards.
Common Stockholder Dividends. Under our dividend policy for our common stock, our intention is to pay dividends to
holders of our common stock in an amount of $0.35 per common share on a quarterly basis ($1.40 annually). For U.S. federal
income tax purposes, any dividends we pay generally will be treated as qualified dividend income (generally taxable to U.S.
individual stockholders at capital gain rates) paid by a domestic corporation to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated
earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, with any excess dividends treated as return of capital
to the extent of the stockholder’s basis. The declaration and payment of dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the
sole discretion of our Board of Directors and in compliance with applicable law, and our dividend policy may be changed at any
time.
With respect to dividend year 2025, the Board of Directors has declared a dividend to common stockholders totaling
$378.9 million, or $1.05 per share, consisting of the following:

Dividends to common stockholders paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $379.2 million,
including the amount paid in February 2025 of $0.35 per common share in respect of the fourth quarter of 2024. Dividends to
common stockholders paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 totaled $377.8 million, including the amount paid
in March 2024 of $0.35 per common share in respect of the fourth quarter of 2023.
Fund Commitments. Generally, 3% – 5% of all capital commitments to our investment funds are made by Carlyle, our
senior Carlyle professionals, advisors, and other professionals. Carlyle will generally commit up to 1% of capital commitments
related to our carry funds, although we may elect to invest additional amounts in funds focused on new investment areas. We
may, from time to time, exercise our right to purchase additional interests in our investment funds that become available in the
ordinary course of their operations. We expect our senior Carlyle professionals and employees to continue to make significant
capital contributions to our funds based on their existing commitments, and to make capital commitments to future funds
consistent with the level of their historical commitments. We also intend to make investments in our open-end funds and our
124
Table of Contents
CLO vehicles. Our investments in our European CLO vehicles will comply with the risk retention rules as discussed in “Risk
Retention Rules” later in this section.
A substantial majority of the remaining commitments to our investment funds are expected to be funded by senior Carlyle
professionals, operating executives, and other professionals through our internal co-investment program. Of the $4.0 billion of
unfunded commitments as of September 30, 2025, approximately $3.4 billion is subscribed individually by senior Carlyle
professionals, operating executives, and other professionals, with the balance funded directly by the Company. Approximately
78% of the $4.0 billion of unfunded commitments relate to investment funds in our Global Private Equity segment.
Under the Carlyle Global Capital Markets platform, certain of our subsidiaries may act as an underwriter, syndicator or
placement agent for security offerings and loan originations. We earn fees in connection with these activities and bear the risk
of the sale of such securities and placement of such loans, which may be longer dated. As of September 30, 2025, there were no
material commitments related to the origination and syndication of loans and securities under the Carlyle Global Capital
Markets platform.
Repurchase Program. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we paid an aggregate of $225.0 million to
repurchase and retire approximately 4.2 million shares of common stock. In addition, during the nine months ended September
30, 2025, we paid an aggregate of $257.8 million and retired 4.6 million shares of common stock to settle tax withholding
obligations in connection with net share settlements of equity-based awards, for a total of $482.8 million for approximately 8.9
million shares repurchased or withheld this year. As of September 30, 2025, $0.4 billion of repurchase capacity remained under
the share repurchase program, which reflects the cost of common shares repurchased as well as shares settled for tax
withholding payments made by the Company related to the net share settlement of equity-based awards. For further information
on our repurchase program, see Note 13, Equity, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q.

Net cash used in operating activities. Net cash used in operating activities includes the investment activity of our
Consolidated Funds. Excluding this activity, net cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by our earnings in the
respective periods after adjusting for significant non-cash activity, including non-cash performance allocations and incentive
fees, the related non-cash performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation, non-cash equity-based
compensation, and depreciation, amortization and impairments, all of which are included in earnings. Operating cash inflows
primarily include the receipt of management fees, realized performance allocations and incentive fees, while operating cash
outflows primarily include payments for operating expenses, including compensation and general, administrative and other
expenses.
Cash flows provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, excluding the
activities of our Consolidated Funds, were $972.1 million and $867.3 million, respectively. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2025 and 2024, operating cash inflows primarily included the receipt of management fees and realized
performance allocations and incentive fees, totaling approximately $2.7 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively. These inflows
were offset by payments for compensation and general, administrative and other expenses of approximately $2.0 billion and
$2.0 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which includes payment of 2024 and 2023
year-end bonuses paid in January 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Table of Contents
Cash used to purchase investments, as well as the proceeds from the sale of such investments, are also reflected in our
operating activities as investments are a normal part of our operating activities. During the nine months ended September 30,
2025, investment proceeds were $664.0 million as compared to investment purchases of $251.1 million. During the nine
months ended September 30, 2024, investment proceeds were $333.3 million as compared to investment purchases of $213.8
million, which included a $115.1 million deferred consideration payment related to our investment in Fortitude.
The net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 also reflects the
investment activity of our Consolidated Funds. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, purchases of investments by the
Consolidated Funds were $9.0 billion, while proceeds from the sales and settlements of investments by the Consolidated Funds
were $5.2 billion. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, purchases of investments by the Consolidated Funds were
$5.0 billion, while proceeds from the sales and settlements of investments by the Consolidated Funds were $3.7 billion.
Net cash used in investing activities. Our investing activities generally reflect cash used for fixed assets, software for
internal use, and corporate treasury investments. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, cash used in
investing activities principally reflects purchases of fixed assets of $57.4 million and $51.0 million, respectively.
Net cash provided by financing activities. Excluding the activities of our Consolidated Funds, net cash provided by (used
in) financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $6.1 million and $(888.6) million,
respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we issued $800.0 million of 5.050% senior notes due 2035,
and we made no borrowings or repayments under the revolving credit facilities. During the nine months ended September 30,
2024, we borrowed and subsequently repaid an aggregate of $10.4 million under the Global Credit Revolving Credit Facility.
Dividends paid to our common stockholders were $379.2 million and $377.8 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we paid $482.8 million
and $478.8 million, respectively, to repurchase and retire 8.9 million and 10.9 million shares, respectively, which included
shares retired in connection with the net share settlement of equity-based awards. During the nine months ended September 30,
2024, we paid $68.8 million in January 2024, representing the final annual installment of the deferred consideration payable to
former Carlyle Holdings unitholders in connection with the Conversion. For more information, see Note 9 to the consolidated
financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The net borrowings (payments) on loans payable by our Consolidated Funds during the nine months ended September 30,
2025 and 2024 were $2,755.1 million and $1,220.5 million, respectively. Contributions from non-controlling interest holders
were $599.1 million and $219.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which relate
primarily to contributions from the non-controlling interest holders in Consolidated Funds. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2025 and 2024, distributions to non-controlling interest holders were $308.1 million and $73.0 million,
respectively, which relate primarily to distributions to the non-controlling interest holders in Consolidated Funds.
Our Balance Sheet
Total assets were $27.1 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $4.0 billion compared to December 31, 2024,
primarily attributable to an increase in Investments in Consolidated Funds of $3.3 billion and an increase in Cash and cash
equivalents of $1.0 billion, partially offset by a decrease in Investments, including Performance allocations of $0.4 billion. The
decrease in Investments, including Performance allocations was primarily attributable to a decrease in Accrued performance
allocations, primarily driven by depreciation in CAP V and CP VII, as well as the impact of realizations in CPP II, partially
offset by appreciation in our AlpInvest funds and CP VIII. Refer to “—Cash Flows” in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for details on the increase in Cash and cash equivalents.
Total liabilities were $20.2 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $3.5 billion from December 31, 2024. The
increase in liabilities was primarily attributable to an increase in Loans payable of Consolidated Funds of $2.3 billion, an
increase in Debt obligations of $0.8 billion, an increase in Other liabilities of Consolidated Funds of $0.3 billion, and an
increase in Deferred revenue of $0.2 billion, partially offset by a decrease in Accrued compensation and benefits of $0.2 billion.
The increase in Debt obligations was driven by our issuance of $800.0 million of 5.050% senior notes due 2035 during the third
quarter of 2025. The increase in Deferred revenue was driven by the receipt of management fees not yet recognized as revenue.
The decrease in Accrued compensation and benefits was primarily attributable to a decrease in Accrued performance
allocations, on which Accrued performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation is based, and the payment of
year-end bonuses.
The assets and liabilities of the Consolidated Funds are generally held within separate legal entities and, as a result, the
assets of the Consolidated Funds are not available to meet our liquidity requirements and similarly the liabilities of the
126
Table of Contents
Consolidated Funds are non-recourse to us. In addition, as previously discussed, the CLO term loans generally are secured by
the Company’s investment in the CLO, have a general unsecured interest in the Carlyle entity that manages the CLO, and do
not have recourse to any other Carlyle entity. The number of funds that we consolidate fluctuates period to period. In general,
the number of funds we are required to consolidate has been increasing as a result of the impacts of capital from our balance
sheet invested in new products and our indirect interest in funds through our indirect investment in Fortitude.
Our balance sheet without the effect of the Consolidated Funds can be seen in Note 17, Supplemental Financial
Information, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. At
September 30, 2025, our total assets without the effect of the Consolidated Funds were $15.9 billion, including cash and cash
equivalents of $2.2 billion and net accrued performance revenues of $2.6 billion.
Unconsolidated Entities
Certain of our funds have entered into lines of credit secured by their investors’ unpaid capital commitments or by a
pledge of the equity of the underlying investment. These lines of credit are used primarily to reduce the overall number of
capital calls to investors or for working capital needs. In certain instances, however, they may be used for other investment
related activities, including serving as bridge financing for investments. The degree of leverage employed varies among our
funds.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, we enter into various off-balance sheet arrangements including sponsoring and owning
limited or general partner interests in consolidated and non-consolidated funds, entering into derivative transactions, and
entering into guarantee arrangements. We also have ongoing capital commitment arrangements with certain of our consolidated
and non-consolidated funds. We do not have any other off-balance sheet arrangements that would require us to fund losses or
guarantee target returns to investors in any of our other investment funds.
For further information regarding our off-balance sheet arrangements, see Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies, and Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

(1)The table above assumes that no prepayments are made on the senior and subordinated notes and that the outstanding balances, if any, on the senior
credit facility and Global Credit Revolving Credit Facility are repaid on the maturity dates of credit facilities. The CLO term loans are included in the
table above based on the earlier of the stated maturity date or the date the CLO is expected to be dissolved. See Note 6, Borrowings, to the condensed
consolidated financial statements for the various maturity dates of our borrowings.
(2)The interest rates on the debt obligations as of September 30, 2025 consist of: 3.500% on $425.0 million of senior notes, 5.050% on $800.0 million of
senior notes, 5.650% on $350.0 million of senior notes, 5.625% on $600.0 million of senior notes, 4.625% on $500.0 million of subordinated notes,
and a range of approximately 3.56% to 10.12% for our CLO term loans. Interest payments assume that no prepayments are made and loans are held
until maturity with the exception of the CLO term loans, which are based on the earlier of the stated maturity date or the date the CLO is expected to be
dissolved.
(3)These obligations represent our estimate of amounts to be paid on the contingent cash obligations associated with our acquisition of Abingworth. The
payment obligations are unsecured obligations of the Company or a subsidiary thereof, subordinated in right of payment to indebtedness of the
Company and its subsidiaries, and do not bear interest.
(4)We lease office space in various countries around the world, including our largest offices in Washington, D.C., New York City, London, Amsterdam,
and Hong Kong, which have non-cancelable lease agreements expiring in various years through 2036. The amounts in this table represent the minimum
lease payments required over the term of the lease.
(5)These obligations generally represent commitments by us to fund a portion of the purchase price paid for each investment made by our funds. These
amounts are generally due on demand and are therefore presented in the less than one year category. A substantial majority of these investments is
expected to be funded by senior Carlyle professionals and other professionals through our internal co-investment program. Of the $4.0 billion of
unfunded commitments to the funds, approximately $3.4 billion is subscribed individually by senior Carlyle professionals, advisors and other
professionals, with the balance funded directly by the Company. Additionally, these obligations include accrued giveback that has been realized but not
yet paid to the respective funds, a portion of which is payable by current and former senior Carlyle professionals.
(6)In connection with our initial public offering, we entered into a tax receivable agreement with the limited partners of the Carlyle Holdings partnerships
whereby we agreed to pay such limited partners 85% of the amount of cash tax savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax realized as a
result of increases in tax basis resulting from exchanges of Carlyle Holdings partnership units for common units of The Carlyle Group L.P. From and
after the consummation of the Conversion, former holders of Carlyle Holdings partnership units do not have any rights to payments under the tax
receivable agreement except for payment obligations pre-existing at the time of the Conversion with respect to exchanges that occurred prior to the
Conversion. These obligations are more than offset by the future cash tax savings that we are expected to realize.
(7)These obligations represent amounts due to holders of debt securities issued by the consolidated CLO vehicles. These obligations include interest to be
paid on debt securities issued by the consolidated CLO vehicles. Interest payments assume that no prepayments are made and loans are held until
maturity. For debt securities with rights only to the residual value of the CLO and no stated interest, no interest payments were included in this
calculation. Interest payments on variable-rate debt securities are based on interest rates in effect as of September 30, 2025, at spreads to market rates
pursuant to the debt agreements, and range from 1.65% to 11.83%.
(8)These obligations represent commitments of the CLOs to fund certain investments. These amounts are generally due on demand and are therefore
presented in the less than one year category.
Excluded from the table above are liabilities for uncertain tax positions of $36.7 million at September 30, 2025 as we are
unable to estimate when such amounts may be paid.

Table of Contents
Contingent Cash Payments For Business Acquisitions and Strategic Investments
We have certain contingent cash obligations associated with our acquisition of Abingworth, which are accounted for as
compensation expense, and are accrued over the service period. If earned, payments are made in the quarter following the
performance year to which the payments relate. The contingent cash obligations relate to future incentive payments of up to
$130.0 million that are payable upon the achievement of certain performance targets during 2025 through 2028, which is the
maximum amount that could be paid as of September 30, 2025. Through September 30, 2025, we paid $2.7 million related to
these contingent obligations.
In connection with our acquisition of Carlyle Aviation Partners, we had contingent cash payments related to an earn-out
of up to $150.0 million that were payable upon the achievement of certain revenue and earnings performance targets during
2020 through 2025. We previously entered into a termination and settlement agreement with respect to the earn-out and made a
final payment of $1.0 million during the first quarter of 2025 for total earn-out payments of $124.7 million.
Risk Retention Rules
We will continue to comply with the risk retention rules governing CLOs issued in Europe for which we are a sponsor,
which require a combination of capital from our balance sheet, commitments from senior Carlyle professionals and/or third-
party financing.
Guarantees
See Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information related to all of our material guarantees.
Indemnifications
In many of our service contracts, we agree to indemnify the third-party service provider under certain circumstances. The
terms of the indemnities vary from contract to contract, and the amount of indemnification liability, if any, cannot be
determined and has not been included in the table above or recorded in our condensed consolidated financial statements as of
September 30, 2025. See Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included
in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information related to indemnifications.
Contingent Obligations (Giveback)
Carried interest is ultimately realized when: (1) an underlying investment is profitably disposed of, (2) certain costs borne
by the limited partner investors have been reimbursed, (3) the fund’s cumulative returns are in excess of the preferred return,
and (4) we have decided to collect carry rather than return additional capital to limited partner investors. Realized carried
interest may be required to be returned by us in future periods if the fund’s investment values decline below certain levels.
When the fair value of a fund’s investments remains constant or falls below certain return hurdles, previously recognized
performance allocations are reversed. See Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies, to the condensed consolidated financial
statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information related to our contingent obligations
(giveback).
Other Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, we are a party to litigation, investigations, inquiries, employment-related matters,
disputes and other potential claims. We discuss certain of these matters in Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies, to the
condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Shares of The Carlyle Group Inc. common stock issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 relate to the
vesting of the Company’s restricted stock units and shares issued and delivered in connection with our equity method
investment in NGP. Shares of The Carlyle Group Inc. common stock repurchased during the nine months ended September 30,
2025 relate to shares repurchased and subsequently retired as part of our share repurchase programs. Shares of The Carlyle
Group Inc. common stock issued and repurchased/retired during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 include shares
retired as part of the net share settlement of equity-based awards.
The total shares as of September 30, 2025 as shown above exclude approximately 0.3 million net common shares,
representing the vesting of restricted stock units subsequent to September 30, 2025 that will participate in the common
shareholder dividend that will be paid on November 19, 2025.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires our
management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses,
and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and judgments are based on historical information,
information currently available to us and on various other assumptions management believes to be reasonable under the
circumstances. Actual results could vary from those estimates and we may change our estimates and assumptions in future
evaluations. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have a material effect on our results of operations and financial
condition.
Other than the Restructuring as discussed in Note 4, Investments, which resulted in the impairment of our investment in
NGP, there have been no material changes in the critical accounting estimates since those discussed in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our primary exposure to market risk is related to our role as general partner or investment advisor to our investment
funds and the sensitivities to movements in the fair value of their investments, including the effect on management fees,
incentive fees and investment income, including performance allocations. Although our investment funds share many common
themes, each of our asset management asset classes runs its own investment and risk management processes, subject to our
overall risk tolerance and philosophy. The investment process of our investment funds involves a comprehensive due diligence
approach, including review of reputation of shareholders and management, company size and sensitivity of cash flow
generation, business sector and competitive risks, portfolio fit, exit risks and other key factors highlighted by the deal team. Key
investment decisions are generally subject to approval by both the fund-level managing directors, as well as the investment
committee, which generally comprises one or more of the three founding partners as well as senior investment professionals.
Once an investment in a portfolio company has been made, our fund teams closely monitor the performance of the portfolio
company, generally through frequent contact with management and the receipt of financial and management reports.
There was no material change in our market risks during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. For additional
information, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosures. In designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its
judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any
disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and
there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Any
controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of
achieving the desired control objectives.
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated
the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by
this report. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our principal executive officer and principal financial
officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)
under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or that are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(1)The Board of Directors reset the total repurchase authorization of our previously approved share repurchase program to $1.4 billion
in shares of our common stock, effective as of February 6, 2024. Under the share repurchase program, shares of our common stock
may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, including
through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing and actual number of shares of common stock repurchased will depend on a variety of
factors, including legal requirements and price, economic, and market conditions. In addition to the repurchase of common stock,
the repurchase program is used for the payment of tax withholding amounts upon net share settlement of equity-based awards
granted pursuant to our Equity Incentive Plan or otherwise based on the value of shares withheld that would have otherwise been
issued to the award holder. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not have a specified
expiration date.
