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 report 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 report 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 which do not earn carried interest, but are either part 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, middle market and growth capital, real estate, infrastructure and 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”)


2


Global Credit: Opportunistic credit, aircraft finance, and other closed-end credit funds advised by Carlyle
Global Investment Solutions: Funds and vehicles advised by AlpInvest Partners B.V. (“AlpInvest”), which include primary fund, secondary and portfolio financing, and co-investment strategies
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 a strategic third-party investor which directly invests 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 Fortitude Group Holdings, LLC (“Fortitude Holdings”) prior to October 1, 2021 and to FGH Parent, L.P. (“FGH Parent”) as of October 1, 2021. On October 1, 2021, the owners of Fortitude Holdings contributed their interests to FGH Parent such that FGH Parent became the direct parent of Fortitude Holdings. Fortitude Holdings owns 100% of the outstanding common shares of Fortitude Reinsurance Company Ltd., a Bermuda domiciled reinsurer (“Fortitude Re”). See Note 4 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, as well as one of our business development companies;
(c)the amount of aggregate fee-earning collateral balance of our CLOs and other securitization vehicles, as defined in the fund indentures (typically 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), excluding cash and cash equivalents, of one of our business development companies and certain carry funds; or
(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;
(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 our business development companies, 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 certain energy and renewable resources funds that we jointly advise with Riverstone Holdings L.L.C. (“Riverstone”) and the NGP Carry Funds that are advised by NGP. Our


3


calculation of AUM also includes third-party capital raised for the investment in Fortitude through a Carlyle-affiliated investment fund and from a strategic investor which directly invests 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.
“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) our Interval Fund and (e) our retail-oriented product Carlyle AlpInvest Private Markets Fund (“CAPM”).
“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” refers to Metropolitan Real Estate Management, LLC, which was included in the Global Investment Solutions business segment prior to its sale on April 1, 2021.

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
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 Global Investment Solutions (see Note 15). In the Global Private Equity segment, Carlyle advises buyout, growth, real estate, infrastructure and natural resources funds. The primary areas of focus for the Global Credit segment are liquid credit, private credit, real assets credit, and other credit such as insurance solutions, loan syndication and capital markets. The Global Investment Solutions segment provides investment opportunities and resources for investors and clients through 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.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements 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 pursuant to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), as described in Note 2. 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 (see Note 2).
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, 2022 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). 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.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
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 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


11

The Carlyle Group Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company evaluates its economic interests in the entity held either directly or indirectly by the Company.
As of June 30, 2023, assets and liabilities of the consolidated VIEs reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets were $8.0 billion and $7.0 billion, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, assets and liabilities of the consolidated VIEs reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets were $7.2 billion and $6.2 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 June 30, 2023, the Company held $120.3 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 our Global Private Equity segment that are accounted for as consolidated VIEs due to the Company providing financing to bridge investment purchases. As of June 30, 2023, the Company held $377.6 million of notes receivable from these investment funds which represents its maximum risk of loss. The Company’s Consolidated Funds also include certain funds in our Global Credit and Global Investment Solutions segments that are accounted for as consolidated VIEs due to the Company having a significant indirect interest in these funds via the Company’s investment in Fortitude.
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 CLOs 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 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.
The assets recognized in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets related to the Company’s variable interests in these non-consolidated VIEs were as follows:
 As of
 June 30, 2023December 31, 2022
 (Dollars in millions)
Investments$1,083.4 $1,124.0 
Accrued performance allocations441.2 406.0 
Management fee receivables47.3 49.6 
Total$1,571.9 $1,579.6 
These amounts represent the Company’s maximum exposure to loss related to the unconsolidated VIEs as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. 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


12

The Carlyle Group Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

consolidate their majority-owned and controlled investments (the “Portfolio Companies”). In the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has retained the specialized accounting for the Funds.
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 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
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 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.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, under which the purchase price of the acquisition is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using the fair values determined by management as of the acquisition date. Contingent consideration obligations that are elements of consideration transferred are recognized as of the acquisition date as part of the fair value transferred in exchange for the acquired business. Acquisition-related costs incurred in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with 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 to 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 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 unaudited 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


13

The Carlyle Group Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

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, since 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 and Global Credit segments, management fees generally range from 1.0% to 2.0% of commitments during the fund’s investment period based on limited partners’ capital commitments to the funds. 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 until redemption of the securities issued by the CLOs, which is generally five to ten years after issuance. 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 the Interval Fund are due monthly in arrears at the annual rate of 1.0% of the month-end value of the Interval Fund’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 range based on Fortitude’s overall profitability and which is due quarterly in arrears.
Management fees for the Company’s carry fund vehicles in the Global Investment Solutions segment generally range from 0.25% to 1.0% 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 1.0% 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 Global Investment Solutions carry fund vehicles are generally due quarterly in advance and recognized over the related quarter.
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 by a percentage of the transaction and advisory fees earned, which is referred to as the “rebate offset,” which generally ranges from 80% to 100%. 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 $16.5 million and $43.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $29.9 million and $57.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, net of rebate offsets as defined in the respective 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


14

The Carlyle Group Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

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 unaudited 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 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and the expense in general, administrative and other expenses or cash-based compensation and benefits expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Incentive Fees
In connection with management contracts from certain of its Global Credit funds, 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 Global Investment Solutions 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 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


15

The Carlyle Group Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

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 June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has accrued $40.9 million and $40.9 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), 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.
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 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Interest income of the Consolidated Funds was $122.1 million and $59.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $231.9 million and $115.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and is included in interest and other income of Consolidated Funds in the accompanying unaudited 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 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; in certain instances, such compensation expense may be recognized prior to the grant date of the award. 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.


16

The Carlyle Group Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

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. 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 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Performance Allocations and Incentive Fee Related Compensation – A portion of the performance allocations and incentive fees earned is due to employees and advisors of the Company. These amounts are accounted for as compensation expense 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. Accordingly, upon a reversal of performance allocations or incentive fee revenue, the related compensation expense, if any, is also reversed. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had recorded a liability of $3.4 billion and $3.6 billion, respectively, related to the portion of accrued performance allocations and incentive fees due to employees and advisors, respectively, which was included in accrued compensation and benefits in the accompanying unaudited 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.
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. 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 unaudited 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 Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), 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 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, asset 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 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 accounting 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 observed by the chief compliance officer, the director of internal audit, 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, (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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements), and (iv) certain credit-oriented investments, including investments in the CLOs and the preferred securities of Carlyle Secured Lending, Inc. (“CSL,” formerly known as “TCG BDC, Inc.,” the preferred securities of which are referred to as the “BDC Preferred Shares”) (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.
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.

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 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets with changes in fair value recognized in the unaudited 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 June 30, 2023, $288.5 million of securities were transferred to counterparties under repurchase agreements and are included within investments in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Cash received under repurchase agreements is recognized as a liability within debt obligations in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 6 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 asset in the condensed consolidated balance sheet 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. Right-of-use 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 right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease right-of-use 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 right-of-use 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 right-of-use 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.

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. The increase in the deferred revenue balance for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by cash payments received in advance of the Company satisfying its performance obligations, partially offset by revenues recognized that were included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company’s accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of 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 June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows:
 As of
 June 30, 2023December 31, 2022
 (Dollars in millions)
Currency translation adjustments$(299.0)$(322.0)
Unrealized losses on defined benefit plans(0.3)(0.2)
Total$(299.3)$(322.2)
Foreign Currency Translation
Non-U.S. dollar denominated assets and liabilities are translated at period-end rates of exchange, and the unaudited 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 $(10.7) million and $16.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $(22.5) million and $23.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, are included in general, administrative and other expenses in the unaudited 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 consolidated financial statements.
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in this update clarify the guidance in Topic 820 when measuring the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual sale restrictions and introduce new disclosure requirements related to such equity securities. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the impact of this guidance to be material to its consolidated financial statements.

(2) As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance includes $582.5 million and $646.0 million, respectively, related to the Company’s investment in Fortitude.
Investment in Fortitude
On November 13, 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”) (the “Minority Transaction”), pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement by and among the Company, AIG and Fortitude Holdings, dated as of July 31, 2018 (the “2018 MIPA”). Fortitude Holdings owns 100% of the outstanding common shares of Fortitude Reinsurance Company Ltd., a Bermuda domiciled reinsurer (“Fortitude Re,” f/k/a “DSA Re”) established to reinsure a portfolio of AIG’s legacy life, annuity and property and casualty liabilities.
The Company paid $381 million in cash at closing of the Minority Transaction (the “Initial Purchase Price”) and will pay $95 million in additional deferred consideration by March 31, 2024. In May 2020, the Initial Purchase Price was adjusted upward by $99.5 million in accordance with the 2018 MIPA as Fortitude Holdings chose not to distribute a planned non-pro rata dividend to AIG prior to May 13, 2020. The Company paid $79.6 million of such adjustment in May 2020 and will pay the remaining $19.9 million by March 31, 2024.
On June 2, 2020, Carlyle FRL, L.P. (“Carlyle FRL”), a Carlyle-affiliated investment fund, acquired a 51.6% ownership interest in Fortitude Holdings from AIG (the “Control Transaction”) and T&D United Capital Co., Ltd. (“T&D”), a subsidiary of T&D Holdings, Inc., purchased a 25.0% ownership interest as a strategic third-party investor pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement by and among the Company, AIG, Carlyle FRL, and T&D, dated as of November 25, 2019 (the “2019 MIPA”). 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. On October 1, 2021, Carlyle FRL, T&D and AIG effected a restructuring of the ownership of Fortitude Holdings that interposed FGH Parent, L.P. (“FGH Parent”), as the direct parent company of Fortitude Holdings (the “Restructuring”). Each of Carlyle FRL, T&D and AIG contributed the entirety of their interest in Fortitude Holdings to FGH Parent in exchange for an equivalent ownership interest in FGH Parent. References to “Fortitude” prior to the Restructuring refer to Fortitude Holdings. For periods subsequent to the Restructuring, references to “Fortitude” refer to FGH Parent.
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. In May 2022, Fortitude called $1.1 billion of the capital raise. In connection with the capital raise and subsequent funding, the Company’s indirect ownership of Fortitude decreased from 19.9% to 13.5%. As a result of the dilution, the Company recorded a reduction in the carrying value of its equity method investment and corresponding loss of $176.9 million. In May 2023, Fortitude called the remaining $1 billion of the capital commitments and the Company’s indirect ownership of Fortitude further decreased from 13.5% to 10.5%. As a result of the dilution, the Company recorded an additional reduction in the carrying value of its equity method investment and corresponding loss of $104.0 million. As of June 30, 2023, 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 $582.5 million, relative to equity invested of $564.7 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 June 30, 2023, Fortitude Holdings and certain Fortitude reinsurance counterparties have committed approximately $10.3 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 a newly-formed investment advisor, Carlyle Insurance Solutions Management L.L.C. (“CISM”). 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Investment in NGP
The Company has equity interests in NGP Management Company, L.L.C. (“NGP Management”), the general partners of certain carry funds advised by NGP, and principal investments in certain NGP funds. The Company does not control NGP and accounts for its investments in NGP under the equity method of accounting, and includes these investments in the Global Private Equity segment. These interests entitle the Company to an allocation of income equal to 55.0% of the management fee related revenues of NGP Management which serves as the investment advisor to certain NGP funds as well as 47.5% of the performance allocations received by certain current and future NGP fund general partners.
The Company’s investments in NGP as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are as follows:

Investment in NGP Management. 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 of NGP Management, which serves as the investment advisor to the NGP Energy Funds. Management fees are generally calculated as 1.0% to 2.0% of the limited partners’ commitments during the fund’s investment period, and 0.5% to 2.0% based on the lower of cost or fair market value of invested capital following the expiration or termination of the investment period. Management fee related revenues from NGP Management are primarily driven by NGP XII and NGP XI during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
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, expenses associated with the compensatory elements of the investment, and the amortization of the basis differences related to the definite-lived identifiable intangible assets of NGP Management. The net investment income (loss) recognized in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

Amortization of basis differences from the investment in NGP Management (0.4) (0.7)
Net investment income from NGP Management$15.7 $14.6 $30.4 $28.5 
The difference between the Company’s remaining carrying value of its investment and its share of the underlying net assets of the investee was amortized over a period of 10 years from the initial investment date and was fully amortized as of December 31, 2022. The Company assesses the remaining carrying value of its equity method investment for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable, and considers factors including, but not limited to, expected cash flows from its interest in future management fees and NGP’s ability to raise new funds.

The CLO term loans 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. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $5.9 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $11.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively. The fair value of the outstanding balance of the CLO term loans at June 30, 2023 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
On February 28, 2017, a subsidiary of the Company entered into a financing agreement with several financial institutions under which these financial institutions provided a €36.1 million term loan ($39.4 million at June 30, 2023) to the Company. 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 November 17, 2031 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 (5.55% at June 30, 2023).

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 (see Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022). 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 LIBOR plus a weighted average spread over LIBOR on the CLO notes, which is due quarterly. As of June 30, 2023, term loans under these agreements had $95.4 million outstanding. The master credit agreements mature in July 2030 and January 2031, respectively. Beginning in the third quarter of 2023, the interest rate base is anticipated to transition from LIBOR to SOFR.
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. The initial maximum facility amount is €100.0 million, which has been, and may further be, expanded on such 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 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 June 30, 2023, €202.3 million ($220.9 million) was outstanding under the Carlyle CLO Financing Facility.
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 (see Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022). 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 June 30, 2023, €61.9 million ($67.6 million) was outstanding under the CBAM 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.

(4) Issued in September 2018 at 99.914% of par.

The issuers may redeem the senior notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on any notes being redeemed discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis at the Treasury Rate plus 40 basis points (30 basis points in the case of the 3.500% senior notes), plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amounts being redeemed.
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 at any time or in part from time to time on or after June 15, 2026 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 no longer to 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 June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Subordinated Notes was $362.6 million and $323.8 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 June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred $5.9 million of interest expense on the Subordinated Notes. For both the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred $11.8 million of interest expense on the Subordinated Notes.

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 June 30, 2023, the Company had no unfunded 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 Global Investment Solutions 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, and was approximately $6.5 million as of June 30, 2023. 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.
Contingent Obligations (Giveback)
A liability for potential repayment of previously received performance allocations of $40.9 million at June 30, 2023 was shown as accrued giveback obligations in the unaudited 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 June 30, 2023. 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). The Company had $10.1 million of unbilled receivables from former and current employees and senior Carlyle professionals as of June 30, 2023 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, $151.9 million have been withheld from distributions of carried interest to senior Carlyle professionals and employees for potential giveback obligations as of June 30, 2023. 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 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Current and former senior Carlyle professionals and employees are personally responsible for their giveback obligations. As of June 30, 2023, approximately $18.9 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 $22.0 million.
If, at June 30, 2023, 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 $1.6 billion, on an after-tax basis where applicable, of which approximately $0.7 billion would be the responsibility of current and former senior Carlyle professionals.
Leases
The Company’s leases primarily consist of operating leases for office space in various countries around the world, including its largest offices in Washington, D.C., New York City, London and Hong Kong. These leases have remaining lease terms of one year to 14 years, some of which include options to extend for up to five years and some of which include an option to terminate the leases within one year. The Company also has operating leases for office equipment and vehicles, which are not significant. The Company assesses its lease right-of-use assets for impairment consistent with its impairment assessment of other long-lived assets.

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 Company believes that the claims alleged against it in the matters described below are without merit.
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. Plaintiffs seek damages for a portion of the lost profits from the sale—the difference between the actual sale price and the purported maximum amount for which Authentix could have sold, multiplied by plaintiff’s ownership percentage. Plaintiffs also seek disgorgement of any profits received by the Company stemming from the sale. A trial is scheduled to begin in Delaware in October 2023. The former directors of Authentix are covered by indemnification from Authentix and an Authentix insurance policy. The defendants intend to contest the claims vigorously.
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,

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

the City of Pittsburgh Comprehensive Municipal Trust Fund (the “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. Plaintiff challenges 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. Plaintiff is 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 remote that the Company itself will pay material damage awards based on the Plaintiff’s claims, although the Company is expected to incur legal defense fees to the extent not covered by insurance. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on October 28, 2022. The Plaintiff amended its complaint on January 31, 2023. The officer and director defendants intend to contest the claims vigorously.
SEC Investigation
As part of a sweep investigation of financial services and investment advisory firms, in October 2022, the Company received from the SEC a request for information related to the preservation of certain types of electronic business communications (e.g., text messages and messages on WhatsApp, WeChat, and similar applications). The Company intends to cooperate fully with the SEC’s inquiry.
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.
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 unaudited 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 June 30, 2023, 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 ($20.9 million as of June 30, 2023) 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

(Unaudited)

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 unaudited 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.

from affiliate accounts at interest rates ranging up to 7.02% as of June 30, 2023. 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 June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 also include interest-bearing loans of $25.0 million and $23.2 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% (7.25% as of June 30, 2023) and are collateralized by each borrower’s interest in the Carlyle sponsored funds.
These receivables are assessed regularly for collectability and amounts determined to be uncollectible are charged directly to general, administrative and other expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. A corresponding allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded and such amounts were not significant for any period presented.

Deferred consideration for Carlyle Holdings units relates to the remaining obligation to the holders of Carlyle Holdings partnership units who will receive cash payments aggregating to $1.50 per Carlyle Holdings partnership unit exchanged in connection with the Conversion, payable in five annual installments of $0.30. The first four annual installment payments occurred in January in each of 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023. The obligation was initially recorded at fair value, net of a discount of $11.3 million and measured using Level III inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
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
In the normal course of business, the Company has made use of aircraft owned by entities controlled by senior Carlyle professionals (see Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022). The Company terminated its remaining aircraft lease agreement in 2022 and had no active aircraft lease agreements in 2023. During the first quarter of 2023, the Company received a final reimbursement related to these aircraft totaling $0.4 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company made net payments related to these aircraft totaling $0.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The accrual of aircraft fees is included in general, administrative, and other expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
On May 5, 2020, the Company purchased 2,000,000 of the BDC Preferred Shares from CSL in a private placement at a price of $25 per share. Dividends are payable on a quarterly basis in an initial amount equal to 7.0% per annum payable in cash, or, at CSL’s option, 9.0% per annual payable in additional BDC Preferred Shares. The BDC Preferred Shares are 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. Effective May 5, 2023 and with the approval of its board of directors, CSL has the option to redeem the BDC Preferred Shares, in whole or in part. In such case, the Company has the right to convert its shares, in whole or in part, prior to the date of redemption. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded dividend income of $0.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded dividend income of $0.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively. Dividend income from the BDC Preferred Shares is included in interest and other income in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s investment in the BDC Preferred Shares, which is recorded at fair value, was $79.2 million and $76.9 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is included in investments, including accrued performance allocations, in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
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 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. 
10. Income Taxes
The Company’s provision (benefit) for income taxes was $(7.3) million and $50.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $27.0 million and $198.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately 10% and 17% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 30% and 19% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is primarily comprised of the 21% U.S. federal corporate income tax rate plus U.S. state and foreign corporate income taxes, non-controlling interest, and disallowed executive compensation. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 also reflects a deferred tax benefit resulting from a reduction in future foreign withholding taxes. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had federal, state, local and foreign taxes payable of $63.4 million and $39.7 million, respectively, which is recorded as a component of accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the accompanying unaudited 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. As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2019 through 2021 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 2017 to 2021. Foreign tax returns are generally subject to audit from 2011 to 2022. 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 consolidated financial statements. The Company 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 July 1, 2022, the State of New York issued proposed regulations, related to its 2015 law change, that may require corporate managers of investment funds (non-broker dealers) to change how they source income to New York state, which may result in an increase in the Company’s taxable income to New York. These regulations will not be effective until promulgated. The Company has not yet determined the effect of these proposed regulations on its tax provision.
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was signed into law. The IRA enacted a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (“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 (benefit) 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 the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the IRS, and other standard-setting bodies.

The Company applies the treasury stock method to determine the dilutive weighted-average common shares represented by the unvested restricted stock units. Also included in the determination of dilutive weighted-average common shares are issuable common shares associated with the Company’s acquisitions, investment in NGP, performance-vesting restricted stock units and issuable common shares associated with a program under which the Company may distribute realized performance allocation related compensation in fully vested, newly issued shares (see Note 13 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). For the three months ended June 30, 2023, all such awards are antidilutive and excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share given the net loss attributable to common stockholders.

13. Equity
Stock Repurchase Program
In October 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to $400 million of common stock. In February 2023, the Board of Directors replenished the repurchase program and expanded the limit to $500 million of common stock in aggregate, effective March 31, 2023. Under this repurchase program, shares of 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, price, and economic and market conditions. This repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not have a specified expiration date. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company paid an aggregate of $160.8 million and $105.3 million, respectively, to repurchase and retire approximately 5.2 million and 2.4 million shares, respectively, with all of the repurchases done via open market and brokered transactions. As of June 30, 2023, $440.0 million of repurchase capacity remained under the program.
The IRA also enacted a 1% excise tax on certain actual and deemed stock repurchases by publicly traded U.S. corporations effective January 1, 2023. The value of repurchases subject to the tax is reduced by the value of any stock issued by the corporation during the tax year, including stock issued or provided to the employees of the corporation. The excise tax is accounted for in equity as an additional repurchase cost.
Shares Issued in Connection with Acquisitions
In August 2022, the Company issued 0.6 million shares of common stock, which represented $25.0 million of the purchase price paid in the acquisition of Abingworth. In March 2022, the Company issued 4.2 million shares of common stock, which represented $194.5 million of the purchase price paid in the acquisition of management contracts related to a portfolio of assets from CBAM. See Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Shares Issued for Performance Allocation Related Compensation
In October 2021, the Company commenced a program under which, at the Company’s discretion, up to 20% of realized performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation over a certain threshold amount may be distributed in fully vested, newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock. Shares issued under the program are accounted for as performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation and do not result in incremental compensation expense. In the third quarter of 2022, the Company paused the issuance of shares pursuant to this program and the Company did not issue shares for performance allocation related compensation during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company distributed 134,696 and 771,157, fully vested, newly issued common shares, respectively, related to previously accrued performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation of $5.2 million and $36.5 million, respectively.

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
In May 2012, Carlyle Group Management L.L.C., the general partner of the Partnership, adopted the Equity Incentive Plan. The Equity Incentive Plan, which was amended on January 1, 2020 in connection with the Conversion to reflect shares of the Company’s common stock, 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 common shares. On June 1, 2021, the shareholders of the Company approved an amended and restated Equity Incentive Plan that removed a provision providing for the automatic increase in the number of the Company’s common stock available for grant and reset the total number of shares of common stock available for grant to 16,000,000 shares of common stock for awards granted under the plan after June 1, 2021. On May 30, 2023, the shareholders of the Company approved a further amended and restated Equity Incentive Plan which increased the total number of shares of common stock available for the grant of awards under the Equity Incentive Plan after June 1, 2021 by an additional 23,800,000 shares of common stock (from 16,000,000 shares of common stock to 39,800,000 shares of common stock). As of June 30, 2023, the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for grant under the amended and restated Equity Incentive Plan was 27,481,128.

15. Segment Reporting
Carlyle conducts its operations through three reportable segments:
Global Private Equity – The Global Private Equity segment advises the Company’s buyout, middle market and growth capital funds, its U.S. and internationally focused real estate funds, and its infrastructure and 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 loans and structured credit, direct lending, opportunistic credit, distressed credit, aircraft financing and servicing, infrastructure debt, insurance solutions and global capital markets.
Global Investment Solutions – The Global Investment Solutions segment advises global private equity programs and related co-investment and secondary activities.
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 management in making resource deployment and compensation decisions and in assessing performance of the Company’s three reportable segments. Management also uses DE in budgeting, forecasting, and the overall management of the Company’s segments. Management believes that reporting DE is helpful to understanding the Company’s business and that investors should review the same supplemental financial measure that management 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 (comprised 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 interests in consolidated entities, or charges (credits) related to Carlyle corporate actions and non-recurring items. Charges (credits) related to Carlyle corporate actions and non-recurring items include: 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. 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 used to assess the ability of the business to cover base compensation and operating expenses from total fee revenues. FRE differs from income (loss) before provision for income taxes computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP in that it adjusts for the items included in the calculation of DE and also adjusts DE to exclude net realized performance revenues, realized principal investment income, net interest (interest income less interest expense), and certain general, administrative and other expenses when the timing of any future payment is uncertain. Fee Related Earnings includes fee related performance revenues and related compensation expense, which is generally approximately 45% of fee related performance revenues. 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.

Item 2.     Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion analyzes the financial condition and results of operations of The Carlyle Group Inc. (the “Company”). Such 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, 2022.
Overview
We are one of the world’s largest global investment firms that deploys private capital across its business and we conduct our operations through three reportable segments: Global Private Equity, Global Credit, and Global Investment Solutions.
 
Global Private Equity — Our Global Private Equity segment advises our buyout, middle market and growth capital funds, our U.S. and internationally focused real estate funds, and our infrastructure and natural resources funds. The segment also includes the NGP Carry Funds advised by NGP. As of June 30, 2023, our Global Private Equity segment had $163 billion in AUM and $107 billion in Fee-earning AUM.

Global Credit — Our Global Credit segment advises funds and vehicles that pursue investment strategies including loans and structured credit, direct lending, opportunistic credit, distressed credit, aircraft financing and servicing, infrastructure debt, insurance solutions and global capital markets. As of June 30, 2023, our Global Credit segment had $152 billion in AUM and $126 billion in Fee-earning AUM.

Global Investment Solutions — Our Global Investment Solutions segment advises global private equity programs and related co-investment and secondary activities. As of June 30, 2023, our Global Investment Solutions segment had $70 billion in AUM and $38 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. Accordingly, our segment revenues primarily consist of fund management and related transaction and portfolio advisory fees and other income, realized performance revenues (consisting of incentive fees and performance allocations), realized principal investment income, including realized gains on our investments in our funds and other trading securities, as well as interest income. Our segment expenses primarily consist of cash compensation and benefits expenses, including salaries, bonuses, and realized performance payment arrangements, and general and administrative expenses. While our segment expenses include depreciation and interest expense, our segment expenses exclude acquisition and disposition related charges and amortization of intangibles and impairment. Refer to Note 15 to the unaudited 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 second quarter of 2023 was characterized by slow but stable growth on average across developed market economies, stronger momentum in Japan even as other parts of Asia (India, Korea) saw a deceleration in economic activity into June, and healthy domestic services consumption in China even as weakness manifested elsewhere. U.S. GDP grew at a 2.4% annualized rate in the second quarter, driven by services (“experiences”) consumption—which was up 2.1% over Q1—and business spending, particularly on technology-centric investment. Residential investment appears to have bottomed out in the first quarter of 2023, with rising strength largely concentrated in the multifamily space, and nonresidential construction spending ex-office has continued to boom. After peaking at 9.1% in June 2022, consumer prices rose 3.0% in June 2023 from a year earlier; core prices, which exclude food and energy, have been stickier, rising 4.8% in June. At the start of the quarter, with worries about growth and the regional banking crisis, markets expected the federal funds rate to peak at just 5% and anticipated a rapid pivot to rate cuts before the end of 2023. A resilient labor market, steady economic growth, and strong messaging from the Federal Reserve, however, have tempered those expectations. Markets now anticipate the Federal Reserve to maintain a peak policy rate in the 5.25% to 5.5% range through the rest of the year.
In China, after a very strong first quarter of 2023, official data indicate the economy grew more slowly than expected in the second quarter, at a 3.2% annualized rate over Q1. This was driven largely by weakness in fixed asset investment, with

negative implications for the potential of any positive spillovers on global energy and raw materials prices and manufacturing orders typically associated with a strong Chinese economy. Both our proprietary portfolio company data and official data through June 2023 highlight, instead, the strength in services consumption, with retail sales volumes across our network up 20%, on average, relative to Q1 2023 levels and economy-wide catering and accommodation spending up 15.5% in the first half of 2023 relative to the same period in 2022. In Japan, while overall GDP remains below pre-pandemic peaks in real terms, the outlook has continued to improve; our proprietary portfolio company data suggest that Japanese industrial orders rose between a 5.5% and 6% annualized rate in Q2 2023 after contracting for much of the first quarter. Portfolio data suggest weaker growth in Korea and India, however. Broad measures of economic activity indicate Korea GDP was flat or slightly down in the second quarter relative to the first, and that trend growth in India has slowed to about 5% from a 7% implied rate in Q1 2023.
Europe’s GDP growth in 2022 surprised to the upside with 3.5% growth for the year. Since then, our proprietary portfolio data suggest that Europe’s economy has been relatively stable in the first half of 2023, with roughly flat growth rather than the steep decline that had initially seemed likely when assessing the outlook six to nine months ago. Price cap schemes, generous fiscal subsidies, and a mild winter have successfully “localized” the shock to energy consumption and energy-intensive industrial processes, which remain depressed and are still down nearly 25% from pre-pandemic levels. This has translated into relative underperformance for Germany; additionally, the boost to German export orders from Chinese reopening demand observed in the first quarter appears to have petered out. Going forward, the industrial sector remains most vulnerable to the ongoing energy crisis and could retrench further if prices rise rapidly again. Beyond energy, certain economies with very high household debt levels, such as the United Kingdom and Sweden, also face rising risks as mortgage rates reset and depress disposable income.
Revenues for S&P 500 constituents are estimated to be flat in the second quarter of 2023, a significant turnaround in topline growth from the double-digit growth performance of 2022. Estimates of S&P 500 constituents’ earnings growth currently stand at -7% for the second quarter, which would mark the worst quarterly decline since Q2 2020. This is driven by declines in materials, health care, energy, utilities, and information technology. Consumer discretionary is expected to outperform as services and experiences spending continues to rise. The estimated blended net profit margin is 11.3% for Q2 2023, down from 12.2% a year ago, as earnings decline faster than revenues.
U.S. equity markets continued to perform well in the second quarter of 2023 buoyed by an AI-driven rebound in tech stocks. The Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq 100 rose 3.4%, 8.3%, and 15.2%, respectively, from March 31, 2023 to June 30, 2023. In the United States, the top seven stocks (Apple, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Alphabet, Amazon, Tesla, and Meta) made up nearly 70% of the S&P 500’s quarterly gain, although the rally was broader across the tech sector than in the first quarter of the year. Globally, equity market performance was more subdued than in the first quarter: the MSCI ACWI, EuroStoxx 600 and Shanghai Composite returned 5.6%, 0.9%, and -2.2%, respectively, over the same period. In Europe, lower performance was driven primarily by UK equities against a challenging economic backdrop there; the FTSE 100 fell 1.3% during the quarter. Other European markets continued to perform well, led by Italy—the FTSE MIB index was up 4.1% in the second quarter of 2023.
Our carry fund portfolio appreciated a modest 2% during the second quarter of 2023. Within our Global Private Equity segment in the second quarter, our corporate private equity funds appreciated 1%, our infrastructure and natural resources funds appreciated 3%, and our real estate funds appreciated 1%. In our Global Credit segment, our carry funds (which represent approximately 12% of the total Global Credit remaining fair value as of June 30, 2023) appreciated 2% in the second quarter. Carry funds in our Global Investment Solutions segment appreciated 2% in the second quarter. While our overall carry fund portfolio appreciated during the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a reversal of previously recognized performance allocations of $(246.8) million in the period, primarily driven by reversals in CP VII, in which appreciation in the portfolio was outpaced by the preferred return hurdle, and CAP V, reflecting depreciation in that portfolio. Rising interest rates and continued margin contraction have in some cases negatively impacted the performance and valuation of certain of our portfolio investments and companies, and may begin to do so elsewhere in the portfolio.
Obtaining financing in both the high yield bond market and the leveraged loan market, while available, has become increasingly expensive due to both the rise in base rates (SOFR rose 500 bps from the beginning of 2022 through the end of the June 2023) and somewhat wider spreads (B-rated option-adjusted spreads rose 80 bps from January 2022 through June 2023). Leveraged loans, which are floating rate and thus typically more appealing to investors when interest rates are rising, have sold off to a lesser extent since the market shift at the end of 2021, but financing and transaction volumes slowed substantially as market participants are being cautious and selective when deploying capital. Entry multiples and prices have not adjusted downwards in proportion to the sharp rise in financing costs; consequently, all of the market adjustment to date has instead been borne by a decline in deal volumes. U.S. LBO deal counts were 82% lower in Q2 2023 than in the peak reached in Q3 2021. Refinancing in the leveraged loan market, on the other hand, was notable in the first half of 2023, as the late Q1 and early Q2

shift in market expectation towards Federal Reserve rate cuts created an opening for borrowers with near-term maturities—expected 2024 and 2025 debt maturities fell by more than 50% and 25%, respectively. As traditional credit remains scarce and companies reevaluate their capital structures particularly in light of impending debt maturities, we expect there will be strong deployment opportunities in our Global Credit segment, particularly in our opportunistic credit strategy.
We issued $0.9 billion CLOs in the second quarter, a pace that reflects sluggish volume in new broadly syndicated loan issuances, a market trend that we expect will continue through the remainder of the year. Our global CLO portfolio continues to experience a default rate less than the industry average, and we are actively managing our credit positions to maintain balanced risk-adjusted credit quality. However, while default rates have remained low, we have seen, and expect to continue to see, default rates increase in 2023 as inflation, higher financing costs and the threat of global recession continue to pressure borrower debt-service capacity. Additionally, nearly 40% of our CLO portfolio is scheduled to exit the reinvestment period by the end of 2023. We generally seek to reset our CLOs which renews the reinvestment period; however, in the absence of a reset, the CLO will begin to use cash flows to repay the outstanding debt tranches, which would reduce our AUM and Fee-earning AUM over time as the underlying collateral runs off.
Gross originations in our direct lending strategy totaled $0.4 billion in the second quarter, a slower pace than the record levels of originations in 2022, reflecting the slowdown in sponsor M&A activity. However, current year originations have been at yields higher than our historical average and at higher credit quality. In addition to gross originations, $1.1 billion in existing positions, or 11% of our direct lending portfolio, had improved covenants and documentation or benefited from additional sponsor equity during the second quarter, with the effect of de-risking our portfolio and, in nearly half of the volume, increasing the spread or earning an amendment fee. Dividend yields on our business development companies as of June 30, 2023 were approximately 10%, and approximately 11% for our Interval Fund.
Global M&A volumes totaled $734 billion in Q2 2023, a 37% decline from the same period a year ago. Global IPO activity remained sluggish as well in the first half of 2023, with total proceeds of just under $70 billion, an 82% decline from the same period in 2021. As capital markets activity remains sluggish, we may experience a corresponding reduction in the capital markets fees we earn in connection with activities related to the underwriting, issuance and placement of debt and equity securities. Consistent with the trends in the broader markets, our announced new investment and realization activity in our carry funds has been slower in 2023. We generated $5.3 billion in realized proceeds from our carry funds and we invested $4.8 billion in new or follow-on transactions in our carry funds during the second quarter of 2023, reflecting the sharp slowdown in market activity in connection with higher interest rates and uncertainty in the economic outlook. We expect this trend to continue in the near-term for both deployments and realizations. Larger transactions will likely continue to be more challenging in this environment; however, we expect to continue to see a pipeline of smaller transactions, including add-on acquisitions, that require less debt at closing. As a result, we expect that transaction fee revenue, realized performance fee revenue and realized investment income will be lower for the year than in 2022.
We raised $7.1 billion in new capital in the second quarter. We anticipate the fundraising landscape will continue to be increasingly competitive as limited partners are closely managing their portfolio allocation targets in light of market volatility and their liquidity requirements. As a result, while we believe that we will attract a significant amount of capital for our next vintage buyout funds, we now expect to see a decline in buyout fund sizes across most geographies. This slowdown in fundraising may delay or reduce catch-up management fees that would be charged to fund investors in subsequent closings and smaller fund sizes could result in lower management fees in the future. We expect that our Fee Related Earnings will remain below our 2022 results and currently expect Fee Related Earnings for the second half of 2023 will approximate the first half of the year, with a relatively stronger fourth quarter.
The SEC has recently put forth several rule proposals, and we are evaluating the potential impacts to our business and operations and those of our portfolio companies. These proposals include, among others: (i) new rules and amendments under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 that expand compliance obligations and prohibit certain activities for private fund advisors, and (ii) extensive climate change disclosure regulations. In addition, in July 2023, the SEC adopted final public company cybersecurity disclosure rules requiring issuers to provide current disclosure on Form 8-K of material cybersecurity incidents and periodic disclosures on Form 10-K of cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance. We are also closely evaluating potential impacts to our business of financial, regulatory and other proposals put forth by the current Administration and Congress, as well as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. The potential for policy changes may create regulatory uncertainty for our investment strategies and our portfolio companies and could adversely affect our profitability and the profitability of our portfolio companies.

Recent Transactions
Dividends
In August 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.35 per share to common stockholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2023, payable on August 23, 2023.
Key Financial Measures
Our key financial measures are discussed in the following pages. Additional information regarding these key financial measures and our other significant accounting policies can be found in Note 2 to the unaudited 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. 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. Collectively, our carry funds and our CLOs and certain other products comprise 77% of our Fee-earning AUM as of June 30, 2023 and approximately 92% of our fund management fees during the three months then ended. The balance of our Fee-earning AUM and fund management fees are attributable to our Perpetual Capital products, which have an indefinite term and for which there is no immediate requirement to return capital to investors as investments are realized.
Management fees attributable to Carlyle Partners VIII, L.P. (“CP VIII”), our eighth U.S. buyout fund, were approximately 11% of fund management fees recognized during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Management fees attributable to CP VIII were approximately 12% and 10% of fund management fees recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Management fees attributable to Carlyle Partners VII, L.P. (“CP VII”), our seventh U.S. buyout fund, were approximately 10% of fund management fees recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. No other fund generated over 10% of fund management fees in the periods presented.
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.
Transaction and Portfolio Advisory Fees. Transaction and portfolio advisory fees generally include capital markets fees generated by Carlyle Global Capital Markets (“GCM”) 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 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 earned by a percentage of the transaction and advisory fees earned, which we refer to as “rebate offsets,” which generally range from 80% to 100%.
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.
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. Investment income 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.


74


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 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.
In addition to the performance allocations from our Global Private Equity funds and closed-end carry funds in the Global Credit segment, and the NGP Carry Funds as discussed below, we are also entitled to receive performance allocations from our Global Investment Solutions and Carlyle Aviation funds. We also retained our interest in the net accrued performance allocations of existing funds at the time of the sale of MRE. The timing of performance allocations realizations for these 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 team of AlpInvest, we generally do not retain any carried interest in respect of the historical investments and commitments to our fund vehicles that existed as of July 1, 2011 (including any options to increase any such commitments exercised after such date). 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, except in certain instances, and 40% of the carried interest in respect of all other commitments (including all future commitments from third parties). In certain instances, carried interest associated with the AlpInvest fund vehicles is subject to entity level income taxes in the Netherlands.

No other fund generated over 10% of performance allocation accruals or reversals in the periods presented.

return in the second quarter. The reversal in previously recognized performance allocations of $111.2 million and $142.8 million in CAP V during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, reflected depreciation in the portfolio. The reversal of $355.0 million and $380.5 million in previously recognized performance allocations in CP VI during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, was primarily driven by depreciation in its publicly traded investments.
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 know as the “giveback obligation.” In all cases, each investment fund is considered separately in evaluating carried interest and potential giveback obligations.
As of June 30, 2023, accrued performance allocations and accrued giveback obligations were $6.5 billion and $40.9 million, respectively. Each balance assumes a hypothetical liquidation of the funds’ investments at June 30, 2023 at their then current fair values. These assets and liabilities will continue to fluctuate in accordance with the fair values of the funds’ investments until they are realized. As of June 30, 2023, $18.9 million of the accrued giveback obligation was the responsibility of various current and former senior Carlyle professionals and other limited partners of the Carlyle Holdings partnerships, and the net accrued giveback obligation attributable to the Company was $22.0 million. The Company uses “net accrued performance revenues” to refer to the aggregation of the accrued performance allocations and incentive fees net of (i) accrued giveback obligations, (ii) accrued performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation, (iii) performance allocations and incentive fee related tax obligations, and (iv) accrued performance allocations and incentive fees attributable to non-controlling interests. Net accrued performance revenues excludes 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. Net accrued performance revenues as of June 30, 2023 were $3.7 billion.
In addition, realized performance allocations may be reversed in future periods to the extent that such amounts become subject to a giveback obligation. If, at June 30, 2023, all investments held by our carry funds were deemed worthless, the amount of realized and previously distributed performance allocations subject to potential giveback would be approximately $1.6 billion on an after-tax basis where applicable, of which approximately $0.7 billion would be the responsibility of current and former senior Carlyle professionals. See the related discussion of “Contingent Obligations (Giveback)” within Note 8 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The following table summarizes the total amount of aggregate giveback obligations that we have realized since Carlyle’s inception. Given various 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, the table below also summarizes the amount that was attributable to the Company:
 Inception through June 30, 2023
 Total GivebackGiveback Attributable to Carlyle
(Dollars in millions)
Various Legacy Energy Funds$160.8 $57.7 
All other Carlyle Funds78.5 12.9 
Aggregate Giveback since Inception$239.3 $70.6 
The funding for employee obligations and givebacks related to carry realized pre-IPO is primarily through a collection of employee receivables related to giveback obligations and from non-controlling interests for their portion of the obligation. The realization of giveback obligations for the Company’s portion of such obligations reduces Distributable Earnings in the period realized and negatively impacts earnings available for distributions to shareholders in the period realized. Further, each individual 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.
Each investment fund is considered separately in evaluating carried interest and potential giveback obligations. As a result, performance allocations within funds will continue to fluctuate primarily due to certain investments within each fund constituting a material portion of the carry in that fund. Additionally, the fair value of investments in our funds may have substantial fluctuations from period to period.
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,


76


if any, 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” for the amount of realized net performance revenues recognized each period. See “—Segment Analysis” for the realized net performance revenues by segment and related discussion for each period.
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, as well as any interest and other income. 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 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.
We account for our strategic investments in NGP under the equity method of accounting. Our investments in NGP include the equity interests in NGP Management Company, L.L.C. (“NGP Management”) and the general partners of certain carry funds advised by NGP. These interests entitle us to an allocation of income equal to 55.0% of the management fee related revenues of NGP Management, which serves as the investment advisor to certain NGP funds as well as 47.5% of the performance allocations received by the NGP Carry Funds. We record investment income (loss) for our equity income allocation from NGP management fee related revenues and also record our share of any allocated expenses from NGP Management, expenses associated with the compensatory elements of the strategic investment, and the amortization of the basis differences related to the definite-lived identifiable intangible assets of NGP Management. 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 consolidated statements of operations. We recognized $34.8 million and $36.5 million of net investment earnings related to NGP performance allocations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to $200.2 million and $450.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, which reflected the impact of strong commodity prices in 2022 on NGP XI and NGP XII. 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 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. For further information regarding our strategic investments in NGP, refer to Note 4 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Fair Value Measurement. U.S. GAAP 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 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.
The table below summarizes the valuation of investments and other financial instruments included within our AUM, by segment and fair value hierarchy levels, as of June 30, 2023:

Interest and Other Income of Consolidated Funds. Interest and other income of Consolidated Funds primarily represents the interest earned on CLO assets. 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.


77


Net Investment Gains (Losses) of Consolidated Funds. Net investment gains (losses) of Consolidated Funds measures the change in the difference in fair value between the assets and the liabilities of the Consolidated Funds. A gain (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. A gain 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 gains (losses) of Consolidated Funds attributable to the limited partner investors is allocated to non-controlling interests. Therefore, a gain 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, a gain 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. Therefore, for any given period, the ratio of performance allocations and incentive fee compensation to performance allocations and incentive fee revenue may vary based on the funds generating the performance allocations and incentive fee revenue for that period and their particular allocation percentages.
In addition, we have implemented various equity-based compensation arrangements that require senior Carlyle professionals and other employees to vest ownership of a portion of their equity interests over a service period of generally one to four years, which under U.S. GAAP will result in compensation charges over current and future periods. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022 and year-to-date 2023, we granted 11.2 million, 4.2 million and 17.0 million restricted stock units, respectively. In contrast, during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, we granted a total of 6.2 million and 3.5 million restricted stock units, respectively. Grants in 2021 included approximately 7.1 million in long-term strategic restricted stock units to certain senior professionals, the majority of which are subject to vesting based on the achievement of annual performance targets over four years, with a larger proportion of the awards vesting based on the 2024 performance year. Grants in 2023 included 10.1 million restricted stock units under the Equity Incentive Plan, as well as an aggregate 6.9 million performance- and time-based inducement equity awards in connection with the appointment of our new Chief Executive Officer. As a result of the larger number of grants in 2023 and the strategic awards granted in 2021, combined with a higher share price than in periods prior to 2021, equity-based compensation expense is higher, and will continue to be higher in the coming years, than it has been. Compensation charges associated with all equity-based compensation grants are excluded from Fee Related Earnings and Distributable Earnings. As of June 30, 2023, the total number of the Company’s common shares available for grant under the Equity Incentive Plan was 27,481,128.
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) 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. The interest and other expenses of Consolidated Funds consist primarily of interest expenses related primarily to our CLO loans, 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.
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. 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.
In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by federal and certain state, local and foreign tax regulators. With a few exceptions, as of June 30, 2023, our U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2019 through 2021 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 2017 to 2021. Foreign tax returns are generally subject to audit from 2011 to 2022. Certain of our affiliates are currently under audit by federal, state and foreign tax authorities.
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. We apply the treasury stock method to determine the dilutive weighted-average common shares represented by unvested restricted stock units. 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.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Distributable Earnings. Distributable Earnings, or “DE,” is a key performance benchmark used in our industry and is evaluated regularly by management 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 (comprised 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. Charges (credits) related to Carlyle corporate actions and non-recurring items include: 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 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. 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 differs from income (loss) before provision for income taxes computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP in that it adjusts for the items included in the calculation of DE and also adjusts DE to exclude net realized performance revenues, realized principal investment income from investments in Carlyle funds, net interest (interest income less interest expense), and certain general, administrative and other expenses when the timing of any future payment is uncertain. Fee Related Earnings includes fee related performance revenues and related compensation expense, which is generally approximately 45% of fee related performance revenues. Fee related


79


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 and one of our business development companies (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 (typically 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), excluding cash and cash equivalents, of one of our business development companies and certain carry funds (included in “Fee-earning AUM based on lower of cost or 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 lower of cost or fair value and other” in the table below).
The table below details Fee-earning AUM by its respective components at each period.

(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, as well as gross subscriptions in our 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. Inflows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 include $14 billion of Fee-earning AUM acquired in the CBAM transaction in March 2022.
(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 runoff of CLO collateral balances. 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 our business development companies, 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 Legacy Energy Funds that we jointly advise with Riverstone and 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 a strategic investor which directly invests in Fortitude alongside the fund. The AUM and Fee-earning AUM related to the strategic advisory services agreement


81


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 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.
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.
The table below provides the period to period rollforward of Total AUM.

Please refer to “—Segment Analysis” for a detailed discussion by segment of the activity affecting Total AUM for each of the periods presented.
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


82


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) our Interval Fund and (e) our retail-oriented product Carlyle AlpInvest Private Markets Fund (“CAPM”). As of June 30, 2023, our total AUM and Fee-earning AUM included $64.7 billion and $61.4 billion, respectively, of Perpetual Capital.
Portfolio Appreciation (Depreciation). 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. The following table summarizes the portfolio appreciation (depreciation) in our carry funds by segment for the periods presented:
Carry Fund Appreciation/(Depreciation)(1)

(1) Appreciation/(Depreciation) represents unrealized gain/(loss) for the period on a total return basis before fees and expenses. The percentage of return is calculated as: ending remaining investment fair market value plus net investment outflow (sales proceeds 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.
While there is no perfectly comparable market index benchmark for the overall portfolio or any of its segments or strategies, we would note that S&P 500 and MSCI ACWI appreciation (depreciation) for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were 8.3% and 5.6%, respectively, while the FTSE NAREIT Composite appreciation (depreciation) was 0.4%, the S&P Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Index was 1.9%, and the S&P Leveraged Loan Index appreciation (depreciation) was 0.9%. Notably, the top seven stocks (Apple, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Alphabet, Amazon, Tesla and Meta) accounted for nearly 70% of the S&P 500’s quarterly gain during the second quarter of 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, S&P 500 and MSCI ACWI appreciation (depreciation) were 15.9% and 12.8%, respectively, while the FTSE NAREIT Composite appreciation (depreciation) was 0.8%, the S&P Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Index was (10.4)%, and the S&P Leveraged Loan Index appreciation (depreciation) was 1.7%.
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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2023, our Consolidated Funds represent approximately 2% of our AUM; 1% of our management fees for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023; and 3% and 15% of our total investment income or loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
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. As of June 30, 2023, our consolidated CLOs held approximately $7.0 billion of total assets and comprised substantially all of the assets and loans payable of the Consolidated Funds. The assets and liabilities of the Consolidated Funds are generally held within separate legal entities and, as a result, the liabilities of the Consolidated Funds are non-recourse to us.
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 and equity. 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. 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.


83


For further information on our consolidation policy and the consolidation of certain funds, see Note 2 to the unaudited 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 unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The unaudited 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 U.S. GAAP, 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.

(1)    Total (decrease) increase in Fund management fees does not include fluctuations in management fees from NGP. 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.
Fund management fees include transaction and portfolio advisory fees, net of rebate offsets, of $16.5 million and $43.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $29.9 million and $57.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Transaction and portfolio advisory fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 included transaction fees in our insurance and aviation strategies as well as higher capital markets fees than in the comparable periods of 2023. Transaction fees and capital markets fees will vary with activity levels in a given period.

The decrease in investment income in the respective periods primarily reflects carry fund appreciation of 2% during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 3% during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and appreciation of 4% during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to appreciation of 9% during the six months ended June 30, 2022, resulting in significantly higher performance allocations in 2022 compared to reversals in 2023. The three and six months ended June 30, 2023 included an investment loss of $104.0 million related to our equity method investment in Carlyle FRL, which was recorded as a result of the dilution of our indirect ownership in Fortitude from 13.5% to 10.5% in connection with the final drawdown of the Fortitude capital raise (see Note 4 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information). The three and six months ended June 30, 2022 included an investment loss of $176.9 million related to our equity method investment in Carlyle FRL, which was recorded as a result of the dilution of our indirect ownership in Fortitude from 19.9% to 13.5% in connection with the initial drawdown of the Fortitude capital raise.
We recorded an investment loss from our CLOs during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and investment income during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to investment loss from our CLOs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The fair value of the CLO investments held by the firm (before the effects of consolidation) decreased 1% during the quarter, with our investments in subordinated notes depreciating 6% while senior notes remained flat during the three months ended June 30, 2023. The fair value of the CLO investments held by the firm (before the effects of consolidation) increased 2% year-to-date, with our investments in subordinated notes depreciating 4% and senior notes appreciating 3% year-to-date.

Performance Allocations. Performance allocations decreased $584.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and decreased $1,134.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Performance allocations by segment on a consolidated U.S. GAAP basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 comprised the following:

Total carry fund appreciation(1)
%%%%
(1) Carry fund appreciation includes appreciation on the NGP Carry Funds. We do not control NGP and account for our strategic investment in NGP as an equity method investment under U.S. GAAP. Therefore, performance allocations related to these funds of $34.8 million and $36.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $200.2 million and $450.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, are included in Principal investment income (loss) in our U.S. GAAP results.
Refer to “—Key Financial Measures” for a listing of the funds which generated performance allocations in excess of 10% of total performance allocation accruals and funds which had reversals of performance allocations in excess of 10% of the total reversal of performance allocations for the periods presented.
The second quarter of 2023 was characterized by slow but stable growth on average across developed market economies, stronger momentum in Japan even as other parts of Asia (India, Korea) saw a deceleration in economic activity into June, and healthy domestic services consumption in China even as weakness manifested elsewhere. Our carry fund portfolio appreciated 2% in the second quarter of 2023, with 1% appreciation in our corporate private equity funds, appreciation of 3% in our infrastructure and natural resources funds, appreciation of 1% in our real estate funds, appreciation of 2% in our Global Credit carry funds (which represent approximately 12% of the total Global Credit remaining fair value as of June 30, 2023), and appreciation of 2% in our Global Investment Solutions funds.
Interest and Other Income. Interest and other income increased $19 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $37.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily as a result of increases in the reimbursement of certain costs incurred on behalf of Carlyle funds and higher yields on cash and interest income on corporate treasury investments.
Interest and Other Income of Consolidated Funds. Interest and other income of Consolidated Funds increased $73.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $134.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Substantially all of the increase in interest and other income of Consolidated Funds relates to increased interest income from CLOs. Our CLOs generate interest income primarily from investments in bonds and loans, inclusive of amortization of discounts, and generate other income from consent and amendment fees. Substantially all interest and other income of the CLOs and other consolidated funds together with interest expense of our CLOs and net investment gains (losses) of Consolidated Funds is attributable to the related funds’ limited partners or CLO investors. Accordingly, such amounts have no material impact on net income attributable to the Company.

Expenses
Total expenses decreased $178.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and decreased $317.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.

(1) The December 2018 Carlyle Aviation Partners acquisition included an earn-out of up to $150.0 million and the August 2022 Abingworth acquisition included an earn-out of up to $130.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we entered into a termination and settlement agreement with respect to the Carlyle Aviation Partners earn-out, which resulted in a reversal of $0.7 million of previously accrued expense compared with an accrual of $19.8 million and $39.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we reversed previously accrued expense of $4.7 million related to the Abingworth earn-out based on revised performance expectations relative to earn-out targets. For additional information, refer to “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Contingent Cash Payments For Business Acquisitions and Strategic Investments.”
Equity-based Compensation. Equity-based compensation, net of forfeitures, increased $22.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $37.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. In 2023, we granted a total of 10.1 million restricted


88


stock units to our personnel, including certain senior Carlyle professionals and other key personnel, as well as an aggregate 6.9 million time and performance-based inducement equity awards in connection with the appointment of our new Chief Executive Officer. As a result of these grants, combined with grants of long-term strategic restricted awards in 2021 and a higher share price than in periods prior to 2021, equity-based compensation expense is higher, and we expect that it will be higher in the coming years, than it has been in prior years.
Performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation expense. Performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation expense decreased $299.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and decreased $564.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation expense by segment on a consolidated U.S. GAAP basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 comprised the following:
Three Months Ended
June 30,
Six Months Ended

Global Private Equity$(146.3)$114.9 $(148.3)$434.4 
Global Credit27.4 7.5 51.8 (1.0)
Global Investment Solutions26.7 84.6 110.0 144.3 
Total performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation$(92.2)$207.0 $13.5 $577.7 
The decrease in Performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation was primarily driven by the decrease in Performance allocations, on which Performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation is based. Performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation as a percentage of performance allocations and incentive fees fluctuates depending on the mix of funds contributing to performance allocations and incentive fees in a given period. For our largest segment, Global Private Equity, our performance allocations and incentive fee related compensation expense as a percentage of performance allocations and incentive fees is generally around 45%. Performance allocations from our Global Investment Solutions segment pay a higher ratio of performance allocations and incentive fees as compensation, primarily as a result of the terms of our acquisition of AlpInvest.
General, Administrative and Other Expenses. General, administrative and other expenses increased $36.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $89.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to:

(1) Intangible asset amortization increases for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 are primarily related to the CBAM and Abingworth acquisitions. See Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
(2) Foreign exchange losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to foreign exchange gains for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, are primarily driven by the EUR appreciation relative to the USD.

Interest. Interest increased $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to higher interest rates on CLO term loans. The six months ended June 30, 2023 also included an increase in interest expense related to the acquisition of the CBAM portfolio of assets in the first quarter of 2022.

Interest and Other Expenses of Consolidated Funds. Interest and other expenses of Consolidated Funds increased $61.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $112.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to higher interest expense on the consolidated CLOs. The CLOs incur interest expense on their loans payable and incur other expenses consisting of trustee fees, rating agency fees and professional fees. Substantially all interest and other income of our CLOs together with interest expense of our CLOs and net investment gains (losses) of Consolidated Funds is attributable to the related funds’ limited partners or CLO investors. Accordingly, such amounts have no material impact on net income attributable to the Company.
Net Investment Income (Loss) of Consolidated Funds. The table below summarizes the components of net investment gains (losses) of our consolidated funds, including our consolidated CLOs and certain other funds:

Total net investment gains (losses) of Consolidated Funds$15.6 $(23.5)$19.2 $(20.7)

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. The Company’s provision (benefit) for income taxes was $(7.3) million and $50.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $27.0 million and $198.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately 10% and 17% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and approximately 30% and 19% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is primarily comprised of the 21% U.S. federal corporate income tax rate plus U.S. state and foreign corporate income taxes, non-controlling interest, and disallowed executive compensation. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 also reflects a deferred tax benefit resulting from a reduction in future foreign withholding taxes. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had federal, state, local and foreign taxes payable of $63.4 million and $39.7 million, respectively, which is recorded as a component of accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the accompanying unaudited 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 $35.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to net income of $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Net income attributable to non-controlling interests in consolidated entities was $60.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to net income of $26.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. 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.
Net Income Attributable to The Carlyle Group Inc. Common Stockholders. Net income (loss) attributable to The Carlyle Group Inc. common stockholders was $(98.4) million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, a $343.8 million decrease from net income of $245.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Net income (loss) attributable to The Carlyle Group Inc. common stockholders was $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, a $814.7 million decrease from net income of $817.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
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 six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Our Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effects of unrealized performance allocations net of related compensation expense, unrealized principal investment income, consolidated funds, acquisition and disposition-related items including amortization and any impairment charges of acquired intangible assets and contingent consideration taking the form of earn-outs, charges associated with equity-based compensation, changes in the tax receivable agreement liability, corporate actions and infrequently occurring or unusual events.

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 senior management 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.

Total increase in fee revenues$21.5 $22.5 
The decrease in fund management fees for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to a decrease in catch-up management fees to $8.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $19.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as well as the impact of investment realizations in funds on which management fees are based on invested capital. These decreases were partially offset by management fees from Abingworth which was acquired in August 2022, as well as additional fundraising in CETP V, CP VIII and CP Growth.
The increase in fund management fees for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to the impact of fundraising in CETP V, CP VIII and CP Growth, as well as $14.8 million in catch-up management fees for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $10.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as well as management fees from Abingworth. These increases were partially offset by the impact of investment realizations in funds on which management fees are based on invested capital, as well as the basis step-down in CETP IV.
The decrease in portfolio advisory and transaction fees, net and other for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were primarily driven by the termination of portfolio fees in connection with the realization of certain portfolio companies over the last twelve months.
The increase in fee related performance revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was due to higher fee related performance revenues from CPI, which will fluctuate from quarter to quarter. We do not expect CPI to generate material fee related performance revenues in the third and fourth quarters of 2023.
The total weighted-average management fee rate and the fee rate for funds in the investment period were 1.25% and 1.41% as of June 30, 2023, respectively, and were generally flat to June 30, 2022. Fee-earning assets under management were $107.1 billion and $105.6 billion as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, an increase of $1.5 billion.

Cash-based compensation and benefits expense. Cash-based compensation and benefits expense increased $19.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a $14.6 million increase in compensation associated with fee related performance revenues.
Cash-based compensation and benefits expense increased $15.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to an increase in headcount as well as a $4.5 million increase in compensation associated with fee related performance revenues.
General, administrative and other indirect expenses. General, administrative and other indirect expenses decreased $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $11.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to foreign currency losses compared to gains in the comparable prior periods, higher conference expenses and travel costs partially offset by lower external fundraising fees and professional fees. General, administrative and other indirect expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 also included $7.5 million in advances to a portfolio company which have been fully reserved as an expense until recovered.

(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 $107.1 billion at June 30, 2023 decreased 1% from March 31, 2023, as outflows exceeded inflows in the period. Outflows of $2.8 billion were driven by realizations in funds that charge fees on invested capital. Inflows of $2.3 billion included the impact of the activation of fees in NGP XIII and investments made in funds which charge fees on invested capital or net asset value. Investment and distribution activity has no impact for funds still in the original investment period where Fee-earning AUM is based on commitments.
Fee-earning AUM of $107.1 billion at June 30, 2023 decreased 1% from December 31, 2022, as outflows exceeded inflows in the period. Outflows of $4.4 billion were driven by realizations in funds which charge fees on invested capital or net asset value, as well as funds which stopped charging fees during the period. Inflows of $3.8 billion included the impact of the activation of fees in NGP XIII, CRSEF II, and NGP RP II, as well as investments made in funds which charge fees on invested capital or net asset value.
Fee-earning AUM of $107.1 billion at June 30, 2023 increased 1% from $105.6 billion at June 30, 2022, as inflows were largely offset by outflows in the period. Inflows of $9.5 billion included additional fee-paying commitments raised in CP VIII and CETP V, the activation of fees in NGP XIII, CRSEF II, NGP ETP IV, and NGP RP II, as well as $2.0 billion acquired as part of the Abingworth transaction. Outflows of $8.1 billion were driven by realizations in funds that charge fees on invested capital and funds which stopped charging fees during the period.

*Net accrued fee related performance revenues for CPI of $13 million 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.
**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)Represents the original cost of investments since inception of the fund.
(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)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.
(6)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.
(7)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.
(8)Represents the net accrued performance revenue balance/(giveback obligation) as of the current quarter end.
(9)Represents all realized proceeds combined with remaining fair value, before management fees, expenses and carried interest.
(10)Aggregate includes the following funds, as well as all active co-investments, separately managed accounts (SMAs), and stand-alone investments arranged by us: MENA, CCI, CSSAF I, CPF I, CAP Growth I, CAP Growth II, CBPF II, CEP II, ABV 8 and ACCD 2.
(11)Aggregate includes the following funds, as well as related co-investments, separately managed accounts (SMAs), and certain other stand-alone investments arranged by us: CP I, CP II, CP III, CP IV, CEP I, CAP I, CAP II, CBPF I, CJP I, CJP II, CMG, CVP I, CVP II, CUSGF III, CGFSP I, CEVP I, CETP I, CETP II, CAVP I, CAVP II, CAGP III and Mexico.
(12)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.
(13)For purposes of aggregation, funds that report in foreign currency have been converted to U.S. dollars at the reporting period spot rate.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 and Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
Distributable Earnings
Distributable Earnings decreased $30.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Total (decrease) increase(30.9)2.4 
Distributable Earnings, June 30, 2023$55.4 $124.3 
Realized Net Performance Revenues. Realized net performance revenues decreased $7.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a decrease in realized net performance revenues generated by CCOF I.
Realized net performance revenues increased $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to realized net performance revenues generated by CSP II during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the impact of a $5.9 million net giveback realization for CSP III in the six months ended June 30, 2022, partially offset by a decrease in realized net performance revenues generated by CCOF I.
Realized Principal Investment Income. Realized principal investment income decreased $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily driven by lower realized principal investment income from our U.S. CLOs and credit opportunities funds, partially offset by higher realized principal investment income from our business development companies.
Realized principal investment income decreased $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily driven by lower realized principal investment income from our U.S. and Europe CLOs, partially offset by higher realized principal investment income from our business development companies.
Fee Related Earnings
Fee Related Earnings decreased $24.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and decreased $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Fee Related Earnings, June 30, 2023$47.5 $95.4 
Fee Revenues. Fee revenues decreased $11.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $22.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, due to the following:

Lower portfolio advisory and transaction fees, net and other(21.8)(20.9)
Higher fee related performance revenues6.8 11.3 
Total (decrease) increase in fee revenues$(11.8)$22.5 
The increase in fund management fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily driven by increases of $11.6 million and $39.8 million, respectively, in our private credit and liquid credit strategies, partially offset by decreases of $8.4 million and $7.7 million, respectively, in our insurance and real assets credit strategies. The increases in private credit and liquid credit reflect the impact of U.S. and Europe CLO issuances in 2022, as well as investment activity at CCOF II, partially offset by the impact of investment realizations in CEMOF II and the basis stepdown in CCOF I in September 2022. The increase in fund management fees in liquid credit for the six months ended June 30, 2023 also reflects the impact of the CBAM transaction in March 2022.
The decrease in portfolio advisory and transaction fees, net and other for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily driven by transaction fees in our insurance and real assets credit strategies in 2022. The recognition of transaction fees and capital markets fees can be volatile as they are primarily generated by investment activity.
The increase in fee related performance revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was due to higher fee related performance revenues from our Interval Fund and business development companies.
The weighted average management fee rate on our carry funds decreased from 1.08% at June 30, 2022 to 0.97% at June 30, 2023. The rate decrease was primarily due to investment activity in funds on which management fees are based on invested capital and have a lower fee rate, including separately managed accounts.
Cash-based compensation and benefits expense. Cash-based compensation and benefits expense increased $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to increased headcount, as well as a $2.4 million increase in compensation associated with fee related performance revenues.
Cash-based compensation and benefits expense increased $20.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to increased headcount, as well as a $3.9 million increase in compensation associated with fee related performance revenues.
General, administrative and other indirect expenses. General, administrative and other indirect expenses increased $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to foreign currency losses compared to gains in the comparable prior period, as well as higher conference expenses and professional fees.

General, administrative and other indirect expenses increased $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to foreign currency losses compared to gains in the comparable prior period, as well as higher conference, IT and travel expenses, partially offset by lower professional fees and external fundraising fees.

(3)    Represents the aggregate effective management fee rate for carry funds, weighted by each fund’s Fee-earning AUM, as of the end of each period presented. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, carry funds represented 13% and 10% of Global Credit Fee-earning AUM, respectively. Management fees for CLOs are based on the total par amount of the assets (collateral) and principal balance of the notes in the fund and are not calculated as a percentage of equity and are therefore not included. Fees related to Fortitude’s strategic advisory services agreement are based on Fortitude’s invested general account assets and are excluded.

(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, as well as gross subscriptions in our 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. Inflows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 include Fee-earning AUM associated with the strategic advisory services agreement with Fortitude which was effective April 1, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, Fee-earning AUM associated with the strategic advisory services agreement was $48 billion. Inflows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 include $14 billion of Fee-earning AUM acquired in the CBAM transaction in March 2022.

(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 runoff of CLO collateral balances. 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 of $126.2 billion at June 30, 2023 increased 1% from $125.3 billion at March 31, 2023, as inflows were partially offset by outflows and negative market activity during the period. Inflows of $2.1 billion included investments in several managed accounts which charge fees on invested capital, an increase in the collateral value of Carlyle Aviation Leasing Fund (CALF), and new fee-paying capital in our two latest vintage U.S. CLOs. Outflows of $0.7 billion included runoff of our CLO collateral balances and realization activity in our Direct Lending products. Negative market activity for the period of $0.5 billion primarily reflected a decrease in the value of the assets covered by the strategic advisory services agreement with Fortitude. Investment and distribution activity has no impact for funds still in the original investment period where Fee-earning AUM is based on commitments.
Fee-earning AUM was $126.2 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $5.0 billion, or approximately 4%, compared to $121.2 billion at December 31, 2022, as inflows and positive market activity were partially offset by outflows for the period. Inflows of $3.3 billion included investments in various cross-platform managed accounts and in our Credit Opportunities funds in which fees are based on invested capital, an increase in the collateral value of CALF, and fee-paying capital associated with the closing of our two latest vintage U.S. CLOs. Positive market activity of $2.8 billion was driven by an increase in the value of the assets covered by the strategic advisory services agreement with Fortitude. Outflows of $1.4 billion included runoff of our CLO collateral balances, distributions in CCOF II, and a reduction in the fee basis in one of our Direct Lending products.
Fee-earning AUM was $126.2 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $9.8 billion, or approximately 8%, compared to $116.4 billion at June 30, 2022, as inflows and positive market activity were partially offset by outflows during the period. Inflows of $10.8 billion were driven by fee-paying capital raised in our latest vintage U.S. and EUR CLOs, investments in our Credit Opportunities funds and various cross-platform managed accounts in which fees are charged on invested capital, and increases in the collateral values of our Carlyle Aviation funds. Positive market activity of $1.6 billion was driven by an increase in the value of the assets covered by the strategic advisory services agreement with Fortitude, as well increases in the gross asset values of our Direct Lending funds. Outflows of $3.0 billion included runoff of our CLO collateral balances, distributions in CCOF, and distributions and expired dry powder in CEMOF II.

Total AUM was $151.5 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $5.2 billion, or approximately 4%, compared to $146.3 billion at December 31, 2022, as inflows and positive market activity were partially offset by outflows during the period. Inflows of $4.1 billion were driven by fundraising in CCOF III and various cross-platform managed accounts, subscriptions in CTAC, and the closing of our two latest vintage U.S. CLOs. Positive market activity of $4.0 billion was driven by an increase in the value of the assets covered by the strategic advisory services agreement with Fortitude and appreciation across our Credit Opportunities funds. Outflows of $3.1 billion included runoff of our CLO collateral balances as well as the expiration of dry powder and realizations in various funds across the platform.
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.
The following table reflects the performance of carry funds in our Global Credit business. These tables separately present carry funds that, as of June 30, 2023, had at least $1.0 billion in capital commitments, cumulative equity invested or total equity value.

(1)Represents the original cost of investments since the inception of the fund. For CSP II, CSP III, and 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 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)Aggregate includes the following funds, as well as all active co-investments, separately managed accounts (SMAs), and stand-alone investments arranged by us: SASOF IV, SASOF V, CALF, and CICF.
(10)Aggregate includes the following funds, as well as related co-investments, separately managed accounts (SMAs), and certain other stand-alone investments arranged by us: CSP I, CEMOF I, CSC, CMP I, CMP II, SASOF II, and CASCOF.
(11)The fund stepdown date represents the contractual stepdown date under the respective fund agreements for funds on which the fee basis stepdown has not yet occurred. Funds without a listed Fee Initiation Date and Stepdown Date have not yet initiated fees.
(12)All amounts shown represent total capital commitments as of June 30, 2023. Certain of our recent vintage funds are currently in fundraising and total capital commitments are subject to change. Committed Capital for CEMOF II reflects original committed capital of $2.8 billion, less $1.1 billion in commitments that were extinguished following a Key Person Event. Committed capital for CCOF II excludes $150 million in capital committed by a CCOF II investor to a side vehicle.

Distributable Earnings
Distributable Earnings decreased $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and decreased $7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The following table provides the components of the changes in Distributable Earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023:

Realized Net Performance Revenues. Global Investment Solutions had realized performance revenues of $15.8 million and $54.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. However, most of these realizations are from AlpInvest fund vehicles in which we generally do not retain any carried interest, therefore our net realized performance revenues were $3.1 million and $4.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.
Realized Principal Investment Income. Realized principal investment income increased $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the comparable prior year period, primarily due to higher realized gains on investments in our primary funds.
Fee Related Earnings
Fee Related Earnings decreased $7.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and decreased $13.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Fee Revenues. Total fee revenues increased $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily driven by the impact of fundraising and net investment activity in funds that charge fees on invested capital, as well as fee related performance revenues from CAPM, a newly-launched retail-oriented product.

Cash-based compensation and benefits expense. Cash-based compensation and benefits expense increased $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to an increase in headcount as well as compensation associated with fee related performance revenues.
General, administrative and other indirect expenses. General, administrative and other indirect expenses increased $8.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $10.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to higher external costs associated with fundraising activities for funds in which fees have not yet been activated.

(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.
(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. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, this included the negative impact of foreign exchange resulting from the translation of our USD investments within our EUR-


112


denominated AlpInvest funds. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, this included the positive impact of foreign exchange resulting from the translation of our USD investments within our EUR-denominated AlpInvest funds.
(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 $38.1 billion at June 30, 2023, a decrease of $0.2 billion, or approximately 1%, compared to $38.3 billion at March 31, 2023, as outflows and market depreciation outpaced inflows during the period. Outflows of $0.8 billion were driven by realizations in our AlpInvest carry funds that charge fees on invested capital. Market depreciation of $0.1 billion occurred in funds that charge fees on fair value. Inflows of $0.8 billion included the activation of fee-paying mandates in our Secondaries and Primary funds and investment activity in our Co-Investments and Secondaries funds. Global Investment Solutions had fundraising of $4.1 billion during the three months ended June 30, 2023, the majority of which we expect will activate fees in the second half of the year and is therefore not yet included in our Fee-earning AUM balance. Distributions from funds still in the commitment or weighted-average investment period do not impact Fee-earning AUM as these funds are based on commitments and not invested capital. Increases in fair value have an impact on Fee-earning AUM for Global Investment Solutions as fully committed funds are based on the lower of cost or fair value of the underlying investments.
Fee-earning AUM was $38.1 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $0.6 billion, or approximately 2%, compared to $37.5 billion at December 31, 2022, as inflows were partially offset by outflows and market depreciation. Inflows of $1.9 billion included the activation of fee-paying mandates in our Primary and Secondaries funds and investment activity across all strategies. Outflows of $1.4 billion were driven by realizations in our AlpInvest carry funds that charge fees on invested capital. Market depreciation of $0.3 billion occurred in funds that charge fees on fair value.
Fee-earning AUM was $38.1 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $0.5 billion, or approximately 1%, compared to $37.6 billion at June 30, 2022, as inflows and positive foreign exchange activity were largely offset by outflows and market depreciation during the period. Inflows of $3.3 billion included the activation of fee-paying mandates in our Primary funds and investment activity in our Secondaries, Co-Investments, and Primary funds. Positive foreign exchange activity of $0.8 billion resulted from the translation of our EUR-denominated AUM to USD. Outflows of $3.0 billion were driven by realizations in our AlpInvest carry funds that charge fees on invested capital. Market depreciation of $0.5 billion occurred in funds that charge fees on fair value.

(2)Outflows includes distributions in our carry funds, related co-investment vehicles and separately managed accounts, as well as 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, the net impact of fees, expenses and non-investment income, as well as other changes in AUM.

Total AUM was $70.5 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $3.7 billion, or approximately 6%, compared to $66.8 billion at March 31, 2023. The increase was driven by inflows of $4.1 billion related to fundraising primarily in our Secondaries and Coinvestments strategies and $1.0 billion of market appreciation. These increases were partially offset by outflows of $1.6 billion from distributions predominantly in our Secondaries and Primary funds.
Total AUM was $70.5 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $7.2 billion, or approximately 11%, compared to $63.3 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase was driven by $5.7 billion of inflows related to fundraising primarily in our Secondaries and Coinvestments strategies, $3.3 billion of market appreciation, and positive foreign exchange activity of $0.9 billion from the translation of our EUR-denominated AUM to USD. These increases were partially offset by outflows of $2.8 billion from distributions predominantly in our Secondaries and Primary funds.
Fund Performance Metrics
Fund performance information for our Global Investment Solutions funds that have at least $1.0 billion in capital commitments, cumulative equity invested or total value as of June 30, 2023, 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. We also present fund performance information for portfolios of investments held by separately managed accounts, generally aggregated either as invested alongside the relevant commingled fund or over a specified time period. 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)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 Fund; and (d) LP co-investment vehicles managed by AlpInvest. As of June 30, 2023, these excluded portfolios amounted to approximately $4.0 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.


115


(8)“ASF” stands for AlpInvest Secondaries Fund, “ACF” stands forAlpInvest 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 AlpInvest Atom Fund, all mezzanine investment portfolios, all ‘clean technology’ private equity investment portfolios, all strategic portfolio finance portfolios, and any state-focused investment mandate portfolios.

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.
Our Sources of Liquidity
We have multiple sources of liquidity to meet our capital needs, including cash on hand, annual cash flows, accumulated earnings and funds from our senior revolving credit facility, which has $1.0 billion of available capacity as of June 30, 2023. 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 $0.9 billion at June 30, 2023. 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.
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. As of June 30, 2023, we had $44.5 million in corporate treasury investments.
After deducting cash amounts allocated to the specific requirements mentioned above, the remaining cash, cash equivalents, and corporate treasury investments, is approximately $0.8 billion as of June 30, 2023. 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. On April 29, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of its senior revolving credit facility. The capacity under the revolving credit facility is $1.0 billion and the facility is scheduled to mature on April 29, 2027. 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


116


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 (6.24% at June 30, 2023). As of June 30, 2023, there was no balance 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 $126.6 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 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 $250.0 million revolving line of credit, primarily intended to support certain lending activities within the Global Credit segment, which is scheduled to mature in September 2024. 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 facility accrue interest at an alternate base rate plus applicable margin not to exceed 1.00%. As of June 30, 2023, there was no balance outstanding under the 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 $419.9 million and $421.7 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. 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 June 30, 2023, $402.4 million of these borrowings are secured by investments attributable to The Carlyle Group Inc. See Note 6 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information on our CLO borrowings.
Senior Notes. 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.
5.650% 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.
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.
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,


117


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 represent 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.
Our accrued performance allocations by segment as of June 30, 2023, gross and net of accrued giveback obligations, are set forth below:

Amounts are fund only, and do not include coinvestments.
(2) Includes $1.0 million of net accrued clawback from our Legacy Energy funds.
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 pay dividends to our common stockholders.
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 of Carlyle 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;
pay income taxes, including corporate income taxes;
pay dividends to our common stockholders in accordance with our dividend policy;
make installment payments under the deferred obligation to former holders of Carlyle Holdings partnership units,
     which were exchanged in the Conversion, and;
repurchase our common stock.


120


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), commencing with the first quarter 2023 dividend paid in May 2023. Prior to the first quarter 2023 dividend, we paid dividends to holders of our common stock in an amount of $0.325 per share of common stock ($1.30 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 distribution year 2023, the Board of Directors has declared a dividend to common stockholders totaling approximately $253.3 million, or $0.70 per share, consisting of the following:

Dividends to common stockholders paid during the six months ended June 30, 2023 totaled $245.1 million, representing the amount paid in March 2023 of $0.325 per common share in respect of the fourth quarter of 2022. Dividends to common stockholders paid during the six months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $207.1 million, representing the amount paid in February 2022 of $0.25 per common share in respect of the fourth quarter of 2021.
Fund Commitments. Generally, we intend to have Carlyle commit to fund approximately 0.75% of the capital commitments to our future 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 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.


121


Since our inception through June 30, 2023, we and our senior Carlyle professionals, operating executives and other professionals have invested or committed to invest in or alongside our funds. Approximately 3% to 5% of all capital commitments to our funds are funded collectively by us and our senior Carlyle professionals, operating executives and other professionals. The current unfunded commitment of Carlyle and our senior Carlyle professionals, operating executives and other professionals to our investment funds as of June 30, 2023, consisted of the following (Dollars in millions):
Asset ClassUnfunded
Commitment
Global Private Equity$3,296.1 
Global Credit425.1 
Global Investment Solutions189.9 
Total$3,911.1 
A substantial majority of the remaining commitments are expected to be funded by senior Carlyle professionals, operating executives and other professionals through our internal co-investment program. Of the $3.9 billion of unfunded commitments, approximately $3.3 billion is subscribed individually by senior Carlyle professionals, operating executives and other professionals, with the balance funded directly by the Company.
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 June 30, 2023, we had no unfunded commitments related to the origination and syndication of loans and securities under the Carlyle Global Capital Markets platform.
Repurchase Program. In October 2021, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $400 million of common stock, which replaced a repurchase authorization provided in February 2021 effective January 1, 2022. In February 2023, the Board of Directors replenished the repurchase program and expanded the limit to $500 million of common stock in aggregate, effective March 31, 2023. This program authorizes the repurchase of shares of common stock from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including through Rule 10b5-1 plans. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we paid an aggregate of $160.8 million to repurchase and retire approximately 5.2 million shares of common stock with all of the repurchases done via open market and brokered transactions. As of June 30, 2023, $440.0 million of repurchase capacity remained under the program.

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.
Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, excluding the activities of our Consolidated Funds, were $74.2 million and $(113.7) million, respectively. 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. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, cash inflows impacting net cash used in operating activities primarily


122


included the receipt of management fees and realized performance allocations and incentive fees, totaling approximately $1.6 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively. These inflows were offset by payments for compensation and general, administrative and other expenses of approximately $1.3 billion and $1.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which includes payment of 2022 and 2021 year-end bonuses paid in January 2023 and 2022, respectively, as well as realized performance allocations related compensation paid during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Operating outflows during the six months ended June 30, 2023 also included a $68.6 million payment relating to the Carlyle Aviation Partners earn-out and a $20.3 million payment to the former Carlyle Holdings unitholders related to amounts owed under the tax receivable agreement.
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 six months ended June 30, 2023, investment proceeds were $137.2 million as compared to purchases of $126.5 million, which included our $50 million follow-on investment in Carlyle FRL. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, investment proceeds were $287.1 million as compared to purchases of $456.8 million, which included our $200 million investment in iStar through our real estate credit fund and our $49 million follow-on investment in Carlyle FRL.
The net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 also reflects the investment activity of our Consolidated Funds. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, purchases of investments by the Consolidated Funds were $1.7 billion, while proceeds from the sales and settlements of investments by the Consolidated Funds were $0.9 billion. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, purchases of investments by the Consolidated Funds were $2.0 billion, while proceeds from the sales and settlements of investments by the Consolidated Funds were $1.6 billion.
Net Cash Used In Investing Activities. Our investing activities generally reflect cash used for acquisitions, fixed assets, software for internal use, and corporate treasury investments. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in investing activities principally reflects purchases of corporate treasury investments of $145.2 million, partially offset by proceeds from corporate treasury investments of $122.4 million. Purchases of fixed assets were $32.5 million and $17.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in investing activities principally reflects purchases of intangible assets and net CLO investments from the CBAM transaction of $618.4 million.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, excluding the activities of our Consolidated Funds, was $513.0 million and $372.6 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we made no borrowings or repayments under the revolving credit facilities. We also paid $68.8 million and $68.8 million in January 2023 and 2022, respectively, representing the fourth and third annual installments of the deferred consideration payable to former Carlyle Holdings unitholders in connection with the Conversion.
Dividends paid to our common stockholders were $245.1 million and $207.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we paid $160.8 million and $105.3 million, respectively, to repurchase and retire 5.2 million and 2.4 million shares, respectively.
The net borrowings (payments) on loans payable by our Consolidated Funds during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $876.1 million and $405.9 million, respectively. Contributions from non-controlling interest holders were $55.5 million and $166.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which relate primarily to contributions from the non-controlling interest holders in Consolidated Funds. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, distributions to non-controlling interest holders were $34.1 million and $156.6 million, respectively, which relate primarily to distributions to the non-controlling interest holders in Consolidated Funds.
Our Balance Sheet
Total assets were $21.4 billion at June 30, 2023, flat compared to December 31, 2022, as the decrease in Investments, including performance allocations of $0.6 billion and the decrease in Cash and cash equivalents of $0.5 billion were largely offset by an increase in Investments in Consolidated Funds of $0.6 billion and an increase in Cash and cash equivalents held by Consolidated Funds of $0.3 billion. The decrease in Investments, including performance allocations was primarily due to a decrease in accrued performance allocations, reflecting year-to-date realizations as well as performance allocation reversals in certain funds, which more than offset the impact of 4% appreciation in our carry funds year-to-date. Refer to “—Cash Flows” for details on the decrease in Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents were approximately $0.9 billion and $1.4 billion at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Total liabilities were $14.7 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $0.2 billion from December 31, 2022. The increase in liabilities was primarily attributable to an increase in Loans payable to Consolidated Funds and an increase in Other liabilities of Consolidated Funds, partially offset by a decrease in accrued compensation and benefits of $0.5 billion as well as decreases in Deferred tax liabilities, Due to affiliates, and Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities. The decrease in Accrued compensation and benefits was primarily due to reversals of accrued compensation related to a decrease in performance allocations, as well as payments of year-end bonuses in the first quarter and the Carlyle Aviation Partners earn-out

The decrease in Deferred tax liabilities was primarily driven by a decrease in accrued performance allocations and the tax of impact of an increase in equity-based compensation expense, partially offset by the tax impact of an increase in intangibles amortization. The decrease in amounts due to affiliates was primarily driven by the fourth installment of deferred consideration to the former Carlyle Holdings unitholders as well as tax receivable agreement payments made in the first quarter of 2023.
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 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.
Our balance sheet without the effect of the Consolidated Funds can be seen in Note 17 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. At June 30, 2023, our total assets without the effect of the Consolidated Funds were $13.8 billion, including cash and cash equivalents of $0.9 billion and net accrued performance revenues of $3.7 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.
In March 2022, Carlyle Net Leasing Income, L.P., a Carlyle-affiliated investment fund, acquired a diversified portfolio of triple net leases from iStar, Inc. for an enterprise value of $3 billion, which was funded using $2 billion in debt and $1 billion in equity. The investment fund is not consolidated by us, and the debt is non-recourse to us. As general partner of the investment fund, we contributed $200 million as a minority interest balance sheet investment, which is included in our Global Credit principal equity method investments (see Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022).
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 and Note 8 to the unaudited 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, which are April 2027 and September 2024, respectively. 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 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the various maturity dates of the CLO term loans, senior notes and subordinated notes.
(2)The interest rates on the debt obligations as of June 30, 2023 consist of: 3.500% on $425.0 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 4.69% to 11.63% 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 acquisitions of Carlyle Aviation Partners and Abingworth, deferred consideration related to our strategic investment in Fortitude, and other obligations. These obligations also include the deferred payment obligations to former holders of the Carlyle Holdings partnership units. In connection with the Conversion, former holders of Carlyle Holdings partnership units will receive cash payments aggregating to approximately $344 million, which is equivalent to $1.50 per Carlyle Holdings partnership unit exchanged in the Conversion, payable in five annual installments of $0.30, the fourth of which occurred during the first quarter of 2023. 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 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 $3.9 billion of unfunded commitments to the funds, approximately $3.3 billion is subscribed individually by senior Carlyle professionals, advisors and other professionals, with the balance funded directly by the Company.
(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 June 30, 2023, at spreads to market rates pursuant to the debt agreements, and range from 1.15% to 13.85%.
(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 $41.3 million at June 30, 2023 as we are unable to estimate when such amounts may be paid.


125


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 year following the performance year to which the payments relate. For our acquisition of Abingworth, 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 2023 through 2028, which is the maximum amount that could be paid from contingent cash obligations associated with the acquisition of Abingworth as of June 30, 2023. There are no amounts recognized on the balance sheet related to these contingent cash obligations as of June 30, 2023.
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. Through December 31, 2022, we paid $53.6 million related to this earn-out. During the first quarter of 2023, we entered into a termination and settlement agreement with respect to the earn-out, pursuant to which we paid $68.6 million, and will pay an aggregate $2.4 million in installments in 2024 and 2025.
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 to the unaudited 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023. See Note 8 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information related to indemnifications.
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 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our 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.


126


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. 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, 2022.
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 is generally comprised of one or more of the three founding partners, one or more operating executives and/or senior investment professionals associated with that particular fund. 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 six months ended June 30, 2023. For additional information, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
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 June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
