Forward-Looking Statements and Information

This Current Report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, which reflect the current views of OCG, with respect to, among other things, its future results of operations and financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements and information by words such as “anticipate,” “approximately,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “outlook,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “seek,” “should,” “will” and “would” or the negative version of these words or other comparable or similar words. These statements identify prospective information. Important factors could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from those indicated in these statements. Forward-looking statements are based on OCG’s beliefs, assumptions and expectations of its future performance, taking into account all information currently available to it. Such forward-looking statements and information are subject to risks and uncertainties and assumptions relating to OCG’s operations, financial results, financial condition, business prospects, growth strategy and liquidity.

In addition to factors previously disclosed in Brookfield’s and OCG’s reports filed with securities regulators in Canada and the United States and those identified elsewhere in this Current Report, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements and information or historical performance: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of Brookfield and OCG to terminate the definitive merger agreement between Brookfield and OCG; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Brookfield, OCG or their respective unitholders, shareholders or directors; the ability to obtain regulatory approvals and meet other closing conditions to the merger, including the risk that regulatory approvals required for the merger are not obtained or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated or that are material and adverse to Brookfield’s or OCG’s business; a delay in closing the merger; business disruptions from the proposed merger that will harm Brookfield’s or OCG’s business, including current plans and operations; potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the merger; certain restrictions during the pendency of the merger that may impact Brookfield’s or OCG’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; the ability of Brookfield or OCG to retain and hire key personnel; uncertainty as to the long-term value of the Class A shares of Brookfield following the merger; the continued availability of capital and financing following the merger; the business, economic and political conditions in the markets in which Brookfield and OCG operate; changes in OCG’s or Brookfield’s anticipated revenue and income, which are inherently volatile; changes in the value of OCG’s or Brookfield’s investments; the pace of OCG’s or Brookfield’s raising of new funds; changes in assets under management; the timing and receipt of, and impact of taxes on, carried interest; distributions from and liquidation of OCG’s existing funds; the amount and timing of distributions on OCG’s preferred units and Class A units; changes in OCG’s operating or other expenses; the degree to which OCG or Brookfield encounters competition; and general political, economic and market conditions.

Any forward-looking statements and information speak only as of the date of this Current Report or as of the date they were made, and except as required by law, neither Brookfield nor OCG undertakes any obligation to update forward-looking statements and information. For a more detailed discussion of these factors, also see the information under the captions “Cautionary Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in the consent solicitation statement/prospectus that forms part of the Registration Statement on Form F-4 (No. 333-231335) filed with the SEC by Brookfield in connection with the proposed merger, and the captions “Business Environment and Risks” in Brookfield’s most recent report on Form 40-F for the year ended December 31, 2018, and under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in OCG’s most recent report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, and in each case any material updates to these factors contained in any of Brookfield’s or OCG’s future filings.

As for the forward-looking statements and information that relate to future financial results and other projections, actual results will be different due to the inherent uncertainties of estimates, forecasts and projections and may be better or worse than projected and such differences could be material. Given these uncertainties, you should not place any reliance on these forward-looking statements and information.

This Current Report and its contents do not constitute and should not be construed as (a) a recommendation to buy, (b) an offer to buy or solicitation of an offer to buy, (c) an offer to sell or (d) advice in relation to, any securities of OCG or securities of any Oaktree investment fund.

LOS ANGELES, CA. July 25, 2019 – Oaktree Capital Group, LLC (NYSE: OAK) today reported its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019.

Agreement and Plan of Merger

On March 13, 2019, OCG and Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (“Brookfield”) entered into a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Brookfield will acquire approximately 62% of Oaktree’s business in a stock and cash transaction. Following the transaction, the remaining 38% of the business will continue to be owned by Oaktree Capital Group Holdings, L.P. (“OCGH”), whose unitholders consist primarily of OCG’s founders and certain other members of management and current and former employees. As part of the transaction, Brookfield will acquire all outstanding OCG Class A units for, at the election of OCG Class A unitholders, either $49.00 in cash or 1.0770 Class A shares of Brookfield per OCG Class A unit (subject to pro-ration to ensure that no more than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate merger consideration is paid in the form of cash or stock), in each case, without interest and subject to any applicable withholding taxes. In addition, the founders, senior management, and current and former employee-unitholders of OCGH will sell to Brookfield 20% of their OCGH units for the same consideration as the OCG Class A unitholders. On June 25, 2019, OCG received written consent in favor of the adoption of the merger agreement from OCGH, constituting the requisite approval of the transaction by OCG unitholders. The transaction is anticipated to close during the third quarter of 2019, subject to customary closing conditions including certain regulatory approvals.

Class A Unit Distribution

Consistent with the terms of the merger agreement with Brookfield, no quarterly distribution per Class A unit attributable to the second quarter of 2019 will be declared.

Preferred Unit Distributions

A distribution was declared of $0.414063 per Series A preferred unit, which will be paid on September 16, 2019 to Series A preferred unitholders of record at the close of business on September 1, 2019.

A distribution was declared of $0.409375 per Series B preferred unit, which will be paid on September 16, 2019 to Series B preferred unitholders of record at the close of business on September 1, 2019.

Note: Oaktree discloses in this earnings release certain revenue and financial measures, including measures that are calculated and presented on a basis other than generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“non-GAAP”). Examples of such non-GAAP measures are identified in the table above. Such non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, net income, net income per Class A unit or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented at Exhibit A. All non-GAAP measures and all interim results presented in this release are unaudited.

(1)

Beginning with the first quarter of 2019, the Company has determined that distributable earnings is the primary financial measure used by management to make operating decisions and assess the performance of our business. In connection with this determination, the definition of distributable earnings was modified to include the deduction for preferred unit distributions and exclude costs related to the Brookfield transaction. For comparability, prior periods have been recast for this change, as applicable.

GAAP Results

Oaktree consolidates entities in which it has a direct or indirect controlling financial interest. Investment vehicles in which we have a significant investment, such as collateralized loan obligation vehicles (“CLOs”) and certain Oaktree funds, are consolidated under GAAP. When a CLO or fund is consolidated, the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of the consolidated funds are reflected on a gross basis, and the majority of the economic interests in those consolidated funds, which are held by third-party investors, are reflected as debt obligations of CLOs or non-controlling interests. All of the revenues earned by us as investment manager of the consolidated funds are eliminated in consolidation. However, because the eliminated amounts are earned from and funded by third-party investors, the consolidation of a fund does not impact net income or loss attributable to OCG.

Total revenues increased $100.2 million, or 47.0%, to $313.5 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $213.3 million for the second quarter of 2018, reflecting higher incentive income.

Total expenses increased $81.3 million, or 44.0%, to $265.9 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $184.6 million for the second quarter of 2018, primarily reflecting higher incentive income compensation.

Total other income increased $33.9 million, to $75.8 million for the second quarter of 2019, from income of $41.9 million for the second quarter of 2018. The increase primarily reflecting variations in returns on our fund investments between periods.

Net income attributable to OCG Class A unitholders increased $11.3 million, or 36.3%, to $42.4 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $31.1 million for the second quarter of 2018, primarily reflecting higher incentive income.

Operating Metrics

Assets Under Management

Assets under management were $120.4 billion as of June 30, 2019, $118.6 billion as of March 31, 2019 and $121.6 billion as of June 30, 2018. The $1.8 billion increase since March 31, 2019 primarily reflected $3.7 billion of capital commitments to closed-end funds and $2.0 billion attributable to DoubleLine, partially offset by $2.5 billion of distributions to closed-end fund investors and $1.7 billion of net outflows from open-end funds. Commitments to closed-end funds included $1.4 billion for CLOs, $1.0 billion for the Highstar III Successor Funds (“HS III”), and $0.5 billion for Oaktree Special Situations Fund II (“SS II”).

The $1.2 billion decrease in AUM since June 30, 2018 primarily reflected $8.2 billion of distributions to closed-end fund investors and uncalled commitments, $6.9 billion of net outflows from open-end funds, and $0.4 billion of unfavorable foreign-currency translation, partially offset by $8.4 billion of capital commitments to closed-end funds, $4.0 billion attributable to DoubleLine, and $3.0 billion in market-value gains. Commitments to closed-end funds included $2.5 billion for CLOs, $1.4 billion for Oaktree Power Opportunities Fund V (“Power V”), $1.2 billion for SS II, $1.1 billion for our Middle Market Direct Lending strategy, and $1.0 billion for HS III. Distributions to closed-end fund investors included $4.6 billion from Credit funds, $1.6 billion from Real Asset funds and $1.0 billion from Private Equity funds.

Management Fee-generating Assets Under Management

Management fee-generating AUM, a forward-looking metric, was $101.4 billion as of June 30, 2019, $100.3 billion as of March 31, 2019 and $100.5 billion as of June 30, 2018. The $1.1 billion increase since March 31, 2019 primarily reflected $2.1 billion from new CLOs and HS III, $2.0 billion attributable to DoubleLine, $0.8 billion in market-value gains, partially offset by $1.7 billion of net outflows from open-end funds, $1.1 billion change in applicable leverage, and $0.7 billion attributable to closed-end funds in liquidation.

The $0.9 billion increase in management fee-generating AUM since June 30, 2018 reflected $5.1 billion primarily from new CLOs and the start of the investment periods for Oaktree Transportation Infrastructure Fund and Power V, $4.0 billion attributable to DoubleLine, $3.2 billion from capital drawn by closed-end funds that pay fees based on drawn capital, NAV or cost basis, $2.1 billion in market-value gains, and $0.7 billion of net inflows to evergreen funds. These increases were partially offset by $6.9 billion of net outflows from open-end funds, $4.1 billion attributable to closed-end funds in liquidation and uncalled commitments, $1.2 billion of distributions by closed-end funds that pay fees based on NAV, and $0.4 billion in unfavorable foreign-currency translation.

Incentive-creating Assets Under Management

Incentive-creating AUM was $36.0 billion as of June 30, 2019, $34.4 billion as of March 31, 2019 and $33.3 billion as of June 30, 2018. The $1.6 billion increase since March 31, 2019 reflected an aggregate increase of $3.3 billion primarily attributable to drawdowns, contributions and market-value gains, partially offset by an aggregate $1.7 billion of distributions. The $2.7 billion increase since June 30, 2018 reflected an aggregate $9.7 billion in drawdowns, contributions and market-value gains, partially offset by an aggregate decline of $7.0 billion primarily attributable to distributions.

Of the $36.0 billion in incentive-creating AUM as of June 30, 2019, $22.8 billion (or 63%) was generating incentives at the fund level, as compared with $21.0 billion (or 63%) of the $33.3 billion of incentive-creating AUM as of June 30, 2018.

Accrued Incentives (Fund Level) and Incentives Created (Fund Level)

Accrued incentives (fund level) were $1,294.9 million as of June 30, 2019, $1,424.9 million as of March 31, 2019 and $1,863.9 million as of June 30, 2018. The second quarter of 2019 reflected $11.3 million of incentives created (fund level) and $141.4 million of incentive income recognized.

Accrued incentives (fund level), net of incentive income compensation expense (“net accrued incentives”), were $620.5 million as of June 30, 2019, $678.5 million as of March 31, 2019, and $898.6 million as of June 30, 2018. The portion of net accrued incentives represented by funds that were currently paying incentives as of June 30, 2019, March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018 was $145.6 million (or 23%), $201.5 million (30%) and $214.6 million (24%), respectively, with the remainder arising from funds that as of that date were not at the stage of their cash distribution waterfall where Oaktree was entitled to receive incentives, other than certain tax-related distributions.

Uncalled Capital Commitments

Uncalled capital commitments were $18.0 billion as of June 30, 2019, $19.5 billion as of December 31, 2018, and $20.3 billion as of June 30, 2018. Invested capital during the quarter and 12 months ended June 30, 2019 aggregated $2.5 billion and $11.2 billion, respectively, as compared with $1.9 billion and $7.9 billion for the comparable prior-year periods.

Non-GAAP Results

Distributable Earnings Revenues

Distributable earnings revenues increased $91.3 million, or 31.8%, to $378.4 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $287.1 million for the second quarter of 2018, as further described below.

Management Fees

Management fees increased $2.1 million, or 1.1%, to $198.0 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $195.9 million for the second quarter of 2018. The increase reflected an aggregate increase of $28.5 million principally from closed-end funds in their investment periods, partially offset by an aggregate decline of $26.4 million primarily attributable to closed-end funds in liquidation and open-end funds.

Incentive Income

Incentive income increased $90.0 million, or 175.1%, to $141.4 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $51.4 million for the second quarter of 2018. The second quarter of 2019 included $118.7 million from Oaktree Opportunities Fund VIII.

Realized Investment Income Proceeds

Realized investment income proceeds decreased $0.8 million, or 2.0%, to $39.0 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $39.8 million for the second quarter of 2018, primarily reflecting lower proceeds from our non-Oaktree and Private Equity investments, largely offset by higher proceeds from our Credit investments.

Adjusted Expenses

Compensation and Benefits

Compensation and benefits expense increased $4.7 million, or 4.5%, to $108.3 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $103.6 million for the second quarter of 2018, primarily driven by growth in headcount.

Incentive Income Compensation

Incentive income compensation expense increased $52.9 million, or 251.9%, to $73.9 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $21.0 million for the second quarter of 2018, reflecting the growth in incentive income.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense increased $3.9 million, or 10.0%, to $43.0 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $39.1 million for the second quarter of 2018, primarily reflecting higher placement fees associated with fundraising activities.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.1 million, or 4.3%, to $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $2.3 million for the second quarter of 2018.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net decreased $1.8 million, or 75.0%, to $0.6 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2018. The decrease was primarily driven by higher interest income.

Preferred Unit Distributions

The second quarter of 2019 included Series A and Series B preferred unit distributions of $6.8 million in the aggregate, as compared with $0 for the second quarter of 2018, reflecting the issuances of our Series A and Series B preferred units in the second and third quarters of 2018, respectively.

Distributable Earnings

Distributable earnings increased $24.0 million, or 21.0%, to $138.3 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $114.3 million for the second quarter of 2018. The increase reflected $37.1 million in higher net incentive income, partially offset by $6.8 million in higher preferred unit distributions and $6.5 million in lower fee-related earnings. The portion of distributable earnings attributable to our Class A units was $0.88 and $0.69 per unit for the second quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively, reflecting distributable earnings per Operating Group unit of $0.87 and $0.73, respectively, less costs borne by Class A unitholders for professional fees and other expenses, cash taxes attributable to the Intermediate Holding Companies, and amounts payable pursuant to the tax receivable agreement.

Fee-related Earnings

Fee-related earnings decreased $6.5 million, or 12.8%, to $44.4 million for the second quarter of 2019, from $50.9 million for the second quarter of 2018, primarily reflecting $4.7 million in higher compensation and benefits expense and $3.9 million in higher general and administrative expense, partially offset by an increase of $2.1 million in management fees.

The effective tax rates applicable to fee-related earnings for the second quarters of 2019 and 2018 were (1)% and 5%, respectively, resulting from full-year effective tax rates of 2% and 6%, respectively. The rate used for interim fiscal periods is based on the estimated full-year effective tax rate, which is subject to change as the year progresses. In general, the annual effective tax rate increases as annual fee-related earnings increase, and vice versa.

In addition to factors previously disclosed in Brookfield’s and OCG’s reports filed with securities regulators in Canada and the United States and those identified elsewhere in this release, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements and information or historical performance: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of Brookfield and OCG to terminate the definitive merger agreement between Brookfield and OCG; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Brookfield, OCG or their respective unitholders, shareholders or directors; the ability to obtain regulatory approvals and meet other closing conditions to the merger, including the risk that regulatory approvals required for the merger are not obtained or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated or that are material and adverse to Brookfield’s or OCG’s business; a delay in closing the merger; business disruptions from the proposed merger that will harm Brookfield’s or OCG’s business, including current plans and operations; potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the merger; certain restrictions during the pendency of the merger that may impact Brookfield’s or OCG’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; the ability of Brookfield or OCG to retain and hire key personnel; uncertainty as to the long-term value of the Class A shares of Brookfield following the merger; the continued availability of capital and financing following the merger; the business, economic and political conditions in the markets in which Brookfield and OCG operate; changes in OCG’s or Brookfield’s anticipated revenue and income, which are inherently volatile; changes in the value of OCG’s or Brookfield’s investments; the pace of OCG’s or Brookfield’s raising of new funds; changes in assets under management; the timing and receipt of, and impact of taxes on, carried interest; distributions from and liquidation of OCG’s existing funds; the amount and timing of distributions on OCG’s preferred units and Class A units; changes in OCG’s operating or other expenses; the degree to which OCG or Brookfield encounters competition; and general political, economic and market conditions.

Any forward-looking statements and information speak only as of the date of this release or as of the date they were made, and except as required by law, neither Brookfield nor OCG undertakes any obligation to update forward-looking statements and information. For a more detailed discussion of these factors, also see the information under the captions “Cautionary Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in the consent solicitation statement/prospectus that forms part of the Registration Statement on Form F-4 (No. 333-231335) filed with the SEC by Brookfield in connection with the proposed merger, and the captions “Business Environment and Risks” in Brookfield’s most recent report on Form 40-F for the year ended December 31, 2018, and under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in OCG’s most recent report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, and in each case any material updates to these factors contained in any of Brookfield’s or OCG’s future filings.

(1)	These amounts include capital commitments to funds that pay fees based on committed capital, as well as the aggregate par value of collateral assets and principal cash related to new CLO formations.

(2)

These amounts include the change for funds that pay fees based on the lesser of funded capital or cost basis during the liquidation period, as well as recallable distributions at the end of the investment period. For most closed-end funds, management fees are charged during the liquidation period on the lesser of (a) total funded capital or (b) the cost basis of assets remaining in the fund, with the cost basis of assets generally calculated by excluding cash balances. Thus, changes in fee basis during the liquidation period are not dependent on distributions made from the fund; rather, they are tied to the cost basis of the fund’s investments, which typically declines as the fund sells assets.


(3)	The change in uncalled capital commitments reflects declines attributable to funds entering their liquidation periods, as well as capital contributions to funds in their liquidation periods for deferred purchase obligations or other reasons.


(4)	These amounts include distributions by funds that pay fees based on NAV, as well as reductions in the par value of collateral assets and principal cash resulting from the repayment of debt as return of principal by CLOs.


(5)	The change in market value reflects certain funds that pay management fees based on NAV and leverage, as applicable, as well as changes in the aggregate par value of collateral assets and principal cash held by CLOs and other levered funds.


(6)	These amounts include contributions and capital commitments, and for our publicly-traded BDCs, issuances of equity or debt capital.


(7)	These amounts include redemptions and distributions, and for our publicly-traded BDCs, dividends, repurchases of equity capital or repayment of debt.

Non-GAAP Results

Our business is comprised of one segment, our investment management business, which consists of the investment management services that we provide to our clients. Management makes operating decisions and assesses the performance of our business based on financial data that are presented without the consolidation of our funds. The data most important to management in assessing our performance are distributable earnings and fee-related earnings, each for both the Operating Group and per Class A unit. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented at Exhibit A.

(1)	For our incentive-creating closed-end funds in their investment periods, this percentage equals invested capital divided by committed capital. Invested capital for this purpose is the sum of capital drawn from fund investors plus net borrowings outstanding under a fund-level credit facility (if any), where such borrowings were made in lieu of drawing capital from fund investors.


(2)	Represents capital drawn from fund investors, net of distributions to such investors of uninvested capital, divided by committed capital. The aggregate change in drawn capital for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $3.8 billion.


(3)	Accrued incentives (fund level) exclude non-GAAP incentive income previously recognized.


(4)	Unreturned drawn capital plus accrued preferred return reflects the amount the fund needs to distribute to its investors as a return of capital and a preferred return (as applicable) before Oaktree is entitled to receive incentive income (other than tax distributions) from the fund.

(5)

The internal rate of return (“IRR”) is the annualized implied discount rate calculated from a series of cash flows. It is the return that equates the present value of all capital invested in an investment to the present value of all returns of capital, or the discount rate that will provide a net present value of all cash flows equal to zero. Fund-level IRRs are calculated based upon the actual timing of cash contributions/distributions to investors and the residual value of such investor’s capital accounts at the end of the applicable period being measured. Gross IRRs reflect returns before allocation of management fees, expenses and any incentive allocation to the fund’s general partner. To the extent material, gross returns include certain transaction, advisory, directors or other ancillary fees (“fee income”) paid directly to us in connection with our funds’ activities (we credit all such fee income back to the respective fund(s) so that our funds’ investors share pro rata in the fee income’s economic benefit). Net IRRs reflect returns to non-affiliated investors after allocation of management fees, expenses and any incentive allocation to the fund’s general partner.


(6)	Multiple of drawn capital is calculated as drawn capital plus gross income and, if applicable, fee income before fees and expenses divided by drawn capital.


(7)	Fund data include the performance of the main fund and any associated fund-of-one accounts, except the gross and net IRRs presented reflect only the performance of the main fund. Certain fund-of-one accounts pay management fees based on cost basis, rather than committed capital.

(8)

Legacy funds represent certain predecessor funds within the relevant strategy or product that have substantially or completely liquidated their assets, including funds managed by certain Oaktree investment professionals while employed at the Trust Company of the West prior to Oaktree’s founding in 1995. When these employees joined Oaktree upon, or shortly after, its founding, they continued to manage the fund through the end of its term pursuant to a sub-advisory relationship between the Trust Company of the West and Oaktree.


(9)	Management fees during the investment period are calculated on drawn capital or cost basis, rather than committed capital. As a result, as of June 30, 2019 management fee-generating AUM included only that portion of committed capital that had been drawn.


(10)	Aggregate IRRs or totals are based on the conversion of cash flows or amounts, respectively, from euros to USD using the June 30, 2019 spot rate of $1.14.


(11)	The fund’s partnership interests are divided into Class A and Class B interests, with the Class A interests having priority with respect to the distribution of current income and disposition proceeds. The net IRR for Class A interests was 10.4% and Class B interests was 9.4%. The combined net IRR for Class A and Class B interests was 9.9%.


(12)	The fund’s partnership interests are divided into Class A and Class B interests, with the Class A interests having priority with respect to the distribution of current income and disposition proceeds. The net IRR for Class A interests was 10.8% and Class B interests was 10.5%. The combined net IRR for the Class A and Class B interests was 10.6%.


(13)	The IRR is not considered meaningful (“nm”) as the period from the initial capital contribution through June 30, 2019 was less than 36 months.


(14)	A portion of this fund pays management fees based on drawn, rather than committed, capital.


(15)	Due to differences in the allocation of income and expenses to this fund’s two primary limited partners, the U.S. Treasury and Oaktree PPIP Private Fund, a combined net IRR is not presented. Of the $2,322 million in capital commitments, $1,161 million related to the Oaktree PPIP Private Fund, whose gross and net IRR were 24.7% and 18.6%, respectively.

(16)

The fund follows the American-style distribution waterfall, whereby the general partner may receive an incentive allocation as soon as it has returned the drawn capital and paid a preferred return on the fund’s realized investments (i.e., on a deal-by-deal basis). However, such cash distributions of incentives may be subject to repayment, or clawback. As of June 30, 2019, Oaktree had not recognized any incentive income from this fund. The accrued incentives (fund level) for this fund represents Oaktree’s effective 8% of the potential incentives generated by this fund in accordance with the terms of the Highstar acquisition.


(17)	This includes our closed-end Senior Loan funds, CLOs, a non-Oaktree fund and certain separate accounts and co-investments.


(18)	The total excludes one closed-end fund with management fee-generating AUM of $93 million as of June 30, 2019, which has been included as part of the Strategic Credit strategy within the evergreen funds table.

GLOSSARY

Accrued incentives (fund level) represents the incentive income that would be paid to us if the funds were liquidated at their reported values as of the date of the financial statements. Incentives created (fund level) refers to the gross amount of potential incentives generated by the funds during the period, and includes our pro-rata portion of performance fees attributable to our minority interest in DoubleLine earned in the period. We refer to the amount of accrued incentives recognized as revenue by us as incentive income. Amounts recognized by us as incentive income are no longer included in accrued incentives (fund level), the term we use for remaining fund-level accruals. Incentives created (fund level), incentive income and accrued incentives (fund level) are presented gross, without deduction for direct compensation expense that is owed to our investment professionals associated with the particular fund when we earn the incentive income. We call that charge “incentive income compensation expense.” Incentive income compensation expense varies by the investment strategy and vintage of the particular fund, among many factors.

Assets under management (“AUM”) generally refers to the assets we manage and equals the NAV of the assets we manage, the leverage on which management fees are charged, the undrawn capital that we are entitled to call from investors in our funds pursuant to their capital commitments, and our pro-rata portion of AUM managed by DoubleLine in which we hold a minority ownership interest. For our CLOs, AUM represents the aggregate par value of collateral assets and principal cash, for our publicly-traded BDCs, gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage), net of cash, and for DoubleLine funds, NAV. Our AUM includes amounts for which we charge no management fees.

•

Management fee-generating assets under management (“management fee-generating AUM”) is a forward-looking metric and generally reflects the beginning AUM on which we will earn management fees in the following quarter, as well as our pro-rata portion of the fee basis of DoubleLine’s AUM. Our closed-end funds typically pay management fees based on committed capital, drawn capital or cost basis during the investment period, without regard to changes in NAV, and during the liquidation period on the lesser of (a) total funded capital or (b) the cost basis of assets remaining in the fund. The annual management fee rate generally remains unchanged from the investment period through the liquidation period. Our open-end and evergreen funds typically pay management fees based on their NAV, our CLOs pay management fees based on the aggregate par value of collateral assets and principal cash, as defined in the applicable CLO indentures, our publicly-traded BDCs pay management fees based on gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage), net of cash, and DoubleLine funds typically pay management fees based on NAV. As compared with AUM, management fee-generating AUM generally excludes the following:


◦	Differences between AUM and either committed capital or cost basis for most closed-end funds, other than for closed-end funds that pay management fees based on NAV and leverage, as applicable;


◦	Undrawn capital commitments to closed-end funds that have not yet commenced their investment periods;


◦	Undrawn capital commitments to funds for which management fees are based on drawn capital, NAV or cost basis;


◦	Oaktree’s general partner investments in management fee-generating funds; and


◦	Funds that pay no management fees.

•

Incentive-creating assets under management (“incentive-creating AUM”) refers to the AUM that may eventually produce incentive income. It generally represents the NAV of our funds for which we are entitled to receive an incentive allocation, excluding CLOs and investments made by us and our employees and directors (which are not subject to an incentive allocation), gross assets (including assets acquired with leverage), net of cash, for our publicly-traded BDCs, and our pro-rata portion of DoubleLine’s incentive-creating AUM. All funds for which we are entitled to receive an incentive allocation are included in incentive-creating AUM, regardless of whether or not they are currently above their preferred return or high-water mark and therefore generating incentives. Incentive-creating AUM does not include undrawn capital commitments.

Class A units refer to the common units of OCG designated as Class A units.

Consolidated funds refers to the funds and CLOs that Oaktree is required to consolidate as of the respective reporting date.

Distributable earnings (“DE”) is a non-GAAP performance measure of profitability for our investment management business. DE reflects our realized earnings, after deducting preferred unit distributions, at the Operating Group level without the effects of the consolidated funds for the purpose of, among other things, assisting in the determination of equity distributions from the Operating Group. However, the declaration, payment and determination of the amount of equity distributions, if any, is at the sole discretion of our board of directors, which may change our distribution policy at any time. DE revenues include the portion of the earnings from management fees and performance fees attributable to our 20% ownership interest in DoubleLine, which are reflected as investment income in our GAAP statements of operations. DE excludes (a) unrealized incentive income and the associated incentive income compensation expense, (b) unrealized gains and losses resulting from foreign-currency transactions and hedging activities, and (c) excludes investment income or loss, which is largely non-cash in nature, and includes the portion of income or loss on distributions received from funds and companies. DE also excludes (a) non-cash equity-based compensation expense, (b) acquisition-related items, including amortization of intangibles, changes in the contingent consideration liability and costs related to the Brookfield transaction, (c) income taxes and other income or expense applicable to OCG or its Intermediate Holding Companies, and (d) non-controlling interests. In addition, any make-whole premium charges related to the repayment of debt are, for DE purposes, amortized through the original maturity date of the repaid debt.

Distributable earnings-Class A, or distributable earnings per Class A unit, is a non-GAAP performance measure calculated to provide Class A unitholders with a measure that shows the portion of DE attributable to their ownership. Distributable earnings-Class A represents DE, including the effect of (a) the OCGH non-controlling interest, (b) expenses such as current income tax expense applicable to OCG or its Intermediate Holding Companies, and (c) amounts payable under a tax receivable agreement. The income tax expense included in distributable earnings-Class A represents the implied current provision for income taxes calculated using an approach similar to that which is used in calculating the income tax provision for GAAP.

Fee-related earnings (“FRE”) is a non-GAAP performance measure that we use to monitor the baseline earnings of our business. FRE is a component of DE and is comprised of management fees (“fee revenues”) less operating expenses other than incentive income compensation expense and non-cash equity-based compensation expense. FRE is considered baseline because it excludes all non-management fee revenue sources and applies all cash compensation and benefits other than incentive income compensation expense, as well as all general and administrative expenses, to management fees, even though those expenses also support the generation of incentive and realized investment income proceeds. FRE is presented before income taxes.

Fee-related earnings-Class A, or fee-related earnings per Class A unit, is a non-GAAP performance measure calculated to provide Class A unitholders with a measure that shows the portion of FRE attributable to their ownership. Fee-related earnings-Class A represents FRE including the effect of (a) the OCGH non-controlling interest, (b) other income or expenses, such as income tax expense, applicable to OCG or its Intermediate Holding Companies and (c) any Operating Group income taxes attributable to OCG. Fee-related earnings-Class A income taxes is calculated excluding any incentive income or investment income (loss).

Incentive income is generally recognized for our closed-end funds only after the fund has distributed all contributed capital plus an annual preferred return (commonly referred to as the European-style waterfall) and, for our evergreen funds, on an annual basis up to 20% of the year’s profits, subject to a high-water mark or hurdle rate. For non-GAAP reporting, incentive income also includes the portion of the performance fees attributable to our minority equity interest in DoubleLine earned in the period.

Intermediate Holding Companies collectively refers to the subsidiaries wholly owned by us.

Invested capital reflects deployed capital, whether involving drawn or recycled equity capital, or borrowings from fund-level credit facilities. This metric is used in connection with incentive-creating closed-end funds and certain evergreen funds.

Management fees are recognized over the period in which our investment advisory services are performed and for non-GAAP reporting include the portion of the earnings from management fees attributable to our minority equity interest in DoubleLine.

Net asset value (“NAV”) refers to the value of all the assets of a fund (including cash and accrued interest and dividends) less all liabilities of the fund (including accrued expenses and any reserves established by us, in our discretion, for contingent liabilities) without reduction for accrued incentives (fund level) because they are reflected in the partners’ capital of the fund.

Oaktree, OCG, we, us, our or the Company refers to Oaktree Capital Group, LLC and, where applicable, its subsidiaries and affiliates.

Oaktree Operating Group (“Operating Group”) refers collectively to the entities in which we have a minority economic interest and indirect control that either (i) act as or control the general partners and investment advisers of our funds or (ii) hold interests in other entities or investments generating income for us.

Preferred units or preferred unitholders refer to the Series A and Series B preferred units of OCG or Series A and Series B preferred unitholders, respectively, unless otherwise specified.

Relevant Benchmark refers, with respect to:


•	our U.S. High Yield Bond product, to the FTSE US High-Yield Cash-Pay Capped Index;

•

our Global High Yield Bond product, to an Oaktree custom global high yield index that represents 60% ICE BofAML High Yield Master II Constrained Index and 40% ICE BofAML Global Non-Financial High Yield European Issuers 3% Constrained, ex-Russia Index – USD Hedged from inception through December 31, 2012, and the ICE BofAML Non-Financial Developed Markets High Yield Constrained Index – USD Hedged thereafter;


•	our European High Yield Bond product, to the ICE BofAML Global Non-Financial High Yield European Issuers excluding Russia 3% Constrained Index (USD Hedged);


•	our U.S. Senior Loan product (with the exception of the closed-end funds), to the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index;


•	our European Senior Loan product, to the Credit Suisse Western European Leveraged Loan Index (EUR Hedged);


•	our U.S. Convertible Securities product, to an Oaktree custom convertible index that represents the Credit Suisse Convertible Securities Index from inception through December 31, 1999, the Goldman Sachs/Bloomberg Convertible 100 Index from January 1, 2000 through June 30, 2004, and the ICE BofAML All U.S. Convertibles Index thereafter;


•	our non-U.S. Convertible Securities product, to an Oaktree custom non-U.S. convertible index that represents the JACI Global ex-U.S. (Local) Index from inception through December 31, 2014 and the Thomson Reuters Global Focus ex-U.S. (USD hedged) Index thereafter;


•	our High Income Convertible Securities product, to the FTSE US High-Yield Market Index; and


•	our Emerging Markets Equities product, to the Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging Markets Index (Net).

Sharpe Ratio refers to a metric used to calculate risk-adjusted return. The Sharpe Ratio is the ratio of excess return to volatility, with excess return defined as the return above that of a riskless asset (based on the three-month U.S. Treasury bill, or for our European Senior Loan product, the Euro Overnight Index Average) divided by the standard deviation of such return. A higher Sharpe Ratio indicates a return that is higher than would be expected for the level of risk compared to the risk-free rate.

Uncalled capital commitments represent undrawn capital commitments by partners (including Oaktree as general partner) of our closed-end funds through their investment periods and certain evergreen funds. If a fund distributes capital during its investment period, that capital is typically subject to possible recall, in which case it is included in uncalled capital commitments.

(1)	This adjustment relates to unrealized incentive income which is excluded from distributable earnings revenues and incentive income compensation expense.

(2)

This adjustment reflects the portion of distributions received from funds characterized as realized investment income or loss. In general, the income or loss component of a distribution from a fund is calculated by multiplying the amount of the distribution by the ratio of our investment’s undistributed income or loss to our remaining investment balance. In addition, if the distribution is made during the investment period, it is generally not reflected in distributable earnings until after the investment period ends.


(3)	This adjustment adds back the effect of equity-based compensation expense, which is excluded from distributable earnings because it is a non-cash charge that does not affect our financial position.


(4)	This adjustment removes the effect of unrealized gains and losses related to foreign-currency hedging activities.


(5)	This adjustment adds back the effect of acquisition-related items associated with the amortization of intangibles, changes in the contingent consideration liability and costs related to the Brookfield transaction, which are excluded from distributable earnings.


(6)	For distributable earnings, the $22 million make-whole premium charge that was included in net income attributable to OCG Class A unitholders in the fourth quarter of 2017 in connection with the early repayment of our 2019 Notes is amortized through the original maturity date of December 2019.


(7)	Because distributable earnings is calculated at the Operating Group level, this adjustment adds back the effect of items applicable to OCG, its Intermediate Holding Companies or non-controlling interests.


(8)	Per Class A unit amounts are calculated to evaluate the portion of distributable earnings and fee-related earnings attributable to Class A unitholders. Reconciliations of distributable earnings to distributable earnings per Class A unit and fee-related earnings to fee-related earnings per Class A unit are presented below.
