Financial Advisory
Revenues for the quarter were down 12% from the same period a year ago, primarily
from fewer deal closings in our Blackstone Advisory Partners and Park
Hill placement services businesses, despite steady pipelines.
First quarter results are impacted by full year compensation accruals which,
typically, reduce income for the first quarter compared to full year
results. Blackstone
Advisory
Partners
revenue
declined
year-over-year
as
advisory
activity
in
the
industry
generally
slowed and there were fewer closed transactions after a record level of activity
in the fourth quarter of 2012. Restructuring revenue increased
year-over-year, reflecting continued strong performance despite an improving
economy and strong financing markets as the business continues to diversify its
client and mandate coverage. Park Hills revenue declined
year-over-year, however the pipeline remains solid as challenging fundraising market
conditions continue to drive demand for alternative asset placement
services. % Change

![]() Additional
1Q13 Information Blackstone had strong Performance Fees across all of
its investing businesses of $604 million ($364 million net of compensation)
during the quarter. Why is the Net Accrued Performance Fee balance, which was a record
$2.3
billion, up only $23 million from the prior quarter? (See page 25.)
The below table details the change in Net Accrued Performance Fees from
4Q12 (Dollars in Millions): In 1Q13, why does Private Equity
have positive Realized Carried Interest of $140 million and negative Unrealized
Carried Interest of $84 million if the carrying value of assets appreciated
during the quarter? (See page 18.)
When Performance Fees, in this case, Carried Interest, are realized, they
generate positive Realized Carried Interest, but have an offsetting
negative amount in Unrealized Carried Interest, which reflects the movement of
Unrealized or Accrued Performance Fees being converted into Realized. This is
typical in a robust realization quarter because the fund is realizing
previously recognized value. Why are 1Q13 Fee Related Earnings down
6% year-over-year despite an increase in Fee Revenues of 3%?
There are three specific items that contributed to the year-over-year
decline in Fee Related Earnings: First,
in
1Q12,
Real
Estate
benefited
from
$19.5
million
of
revenues
related
to
a
management
fee
catch
up
coinciding with additional closings of BREP VII, a $13.4 billion fund.
Additionally, there were certain non-recurring benefits in 1Q12 related
to the Credit / GSO buyout. And lastly, Fee Related Earnings were impacted
by the firms 10 and 30-year bond issuances of $650 million in
3Q12. Excluding the bond impact, Other Operating Expenses were actually down year-over-year.

Definitions and Distribution Policy
Distribution Policy. For 2013, Blackstones intention is to distribute to common
unitholders each quarter substantially all of its Net Cash Available for Distribution to
Common Unitholders, subject to a minimum base quarterly distribution of $0.12 per unit. In
circumstances in which the Net Cash Available for Distribution to Common
Unitholders
for
a
quarter
falls
short
of
the
amount
necessary
to
support
such
per
unit
distribution,
Blackstone
intends
to
correspondingly
reduce
subsequent
quarterly
distributions below the amounts supported by the Net Cash Available for Distribution to Common
Unitholders by the amount of the shortfall, but not below $0.12 per unit.
All
of
the
foregoing
is
subject
to
the
qualification
that
the
declaration
and
payment
of
any
distributions
are
at
the
sole
discretion
of
Blackstones
general
partner
and
may
change
at
any
time,
including,
without
limitation,
to
reduce
the
quarterly
distribution
payable
to
common
unitholders
to
less
than
$0.12
per
unit
or
even
to
eliminate such distributions entirely.
Blackstone uses Economic Income, or EI, as a key measure of value creation, a
benchmark of its performance and in making resource deployment and compensation
decisions across its five segments. EI represents segment net income before taxes excluding transaction-related charges. Transaction-
related charges arise from Blackstones initial public offering (IPO) and
long-term retention programs outside of annual deferred compensation and other
corporate actions, including acquisitions. Transaction-related charges include
equity-based compensation charges, the amortization of intangible assets and
contingent consideration associated with acquisitions. EI presents revenues and expenses on a basis that deconsolidates the investment funds
Blackstone manages.
Economic Net Income, or ENI, represents EI adjusted to include current period
taxes. Taxes represent the current tax provision (benefit) calculated on Income
(Loss) Before Provision for Taxes.
Blackstone uses Fee Related Earnings, or FRE, as a key measure to highlight
earnings from operations excluding: (a) the income related to performance fees
and related carry plan costs, (b) income earned from Blackstones investments in the Blackstone Funds, and (c) realized and unrealized gains (losses)
from other investments except for such gains (losses) from Blackstones Treasury cash
management strategies. Blackstone uses FRE as a measure to assess whether
recurring revenue from its businesses is sufficient to adequately cover all of its operating expenses and generate profits. FRE equals contractual
fee revenues, investment income from Blackstones Treasury cash management strategies and
interest income, less (a) compensation expenses (which includes amortization of
non-IPO and non-acquisition-related equity-based awards, but excludes amortization of IPO and acquisition-related equity-based
awards, carried interest and incentive fee compensation), and (b) other operating
expenses.
Distributable Earnings, or DE, which is derived from Blackstones segment
reported results, is a supplemental measure to assess performance and amounts available
for distributions to Blackstone unitholders, including Blackstone personnel and others who are limited partners of the Blackstone
Holdings partnerships. DE is intended to show the amount of net realized earnings
without the effects of the consolidation of the Blackstone Funds. DE, which is a
component of ENI, is the sum across all segments of: (a) Total Management and Advisory Fees, (b) Interest and Dividend Revenue, (c) Other
Revenue, (d) Realized Performance Fees, and (e) Realized Investment Income (Loss); less (a)
Compensation, (b) Realized Performance Fee Compensation, (c) Other Operating Expenses,
and (d) Taxes and Related Payables Including the Payable Under Tax Receivable Agreement. DE is reconciled to Blackstones
Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Blackstone uses Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes and Depreciation and Amortization, or
Adjusted EBITDA, as a measure of segment performance and an indicator of
its ability to cover recurring operating expenses. Adjusted EBITDA equals DE before segment interest expense, segment depreciation
and amortization, and the taxes and related payables including the Payable Under Tax
Receivable Agreement.
Net Cash Available for Distribution to Common Unitholders is The Blackstone Group L.P.s
share of Distributable Earnings, less realized investment gains and returns of capital
from investments and acquisitions, in excess of amounts determined by Blackstones general partner to be necessary or appropriate to
provide for the conduct of its business, to make appropriate investments in its business and
funds, to comply with applicable law, any of its debt instruments or other agreements,
or to provide for future cash requirements such as tax-related payments, clawback obligations and distributions to
unitholders for any ensuing quarter.
Blackstone discloses the following financial measures that are calculated and presented on the
basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States of America (non-GAAP) in this presentation: |
