2012 Second Quarter Results

2012 Second Quarter Dividend of $0.14 per Class A Share

NEW YORK, August 2, 2012 – Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC (NYSE:OZM) (the “Company” or “Och-Ziff”) today reported a GAAP Net Loss(1) of $116.2 million, or $0.82 per basic and diluted Class A Share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012. The Company also declared a $0.14 per share cash dividend on its Class A Shares for the 2012 second quarter.

Summary Highlights

 

 

Distributable Earnings of $67.2 million, or $0.15 per Adjusted Class A Share, for the 2012 second quarter, compared to $67.7 million, or $0.16 per Adjusted Class A Share, for the 2011 second quarter.

 

 

Assets under management of $29.3 billion as of July 1, 2012, compared to $29.5 billion as of April 1, 2012, and $29.3 billion as of July 1, 2011.

 

 

Estimated assets under management of $30.3 billion as of August 1, 2012, which reflected year-to-date performance-related appreciation of $1.7 billion and capital net outflows of approximately $200 million.

 

 

Estimated year-to-date net returns through July 31, 2012 of the OZ Master Fund of +5.6%, the OZ Europe Master Fund of +3.9%, the OZ Asia Master Fund of +2.7% and the OZ Global Special Investments Master Fund of +5.3%.

 

 

The Company refinanced the remaining indebtedness outstanding under its term loan due in July 2012, as well as the indebtedness outstanding under its aircraft loan due in May 2014, by borrowing $384.5 million under the delayed draw term loan agreement it entered into in November 2011.

 

 

In August 2012, the Company adopted a new Partner Incentive Plan. This plan maintains the alignment of interests of participating executive managing directors with those of the Company’s fund investors and Class A Shareholders in relation to managing the Company’s current business, as well as its future growth and stability.

“During the second quarter, we protected investor capital in the difficult and often volatile market conditions that characterized May and June. We also maintained the strong absolute returns we generated in the first quarter of this year and continued that trend through July,” said Daniel S. Och, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Och-Ziff. “The re-emergence of difficult market conditions further reinforced the attractiveness of absolute return strategies and the importance of manager selection.

“We continued to have an active dialog with current and prospective fund investors globally. While the broader market and industry backdrop affects the amount and timing of flows, interest in both our hedge funds and dedicated credit platforms remains strong. Despite a more difficult environment for capital flows right now, we remain confident that capital allocations to the hedge fund industry will increase as markets stabilize globally. We believe that as a leading absolute return manager we are well positioned to increase our market share of new flows over time.”

GAAP NET LOSS ALLOCATED TO CLASS A SHAREHOLDERS

For the 2012 second quarter, Och-Ziff reported a GAAP Net Loss of $116.2 million, or $0.82 per basic and diluted Class A Share, compared to a GAAP Net Loss of $93.4 million, or $0.96 per basic and diluted Class A Share, for the 2011 second quarter. For the 2012 first half, Och-Ziff reported a GAAP Net Loss of $239.0 million, or $1.69 per basic and diluted Class A Share, compared to a GAAP Net Loss of $188.8 million, or $1.94 per basic and diluted Class A Share, for the 2011 first half.

The year-over-year increases in the GAAP Net Loss were primarily due to an increase in the Company’s interest in its principal operating subsidiaries (the “Och-Ziff Operating Group”) driven by the public offering of 33.3 million Class A Shares in November 2011, the issuance of Class A Shares related to the vesting of Class A Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) and the exchange of Och-Ziff Operating Group A Units (“Group A Units”) for Class A Shares. Because of the increase in the Company’s interest in the Och-Ziff Operating Group, a larger portion of the losses of the Och-Ziff Operating Group was allocated to the Company. Partially offsetting the year-over-year increase in the GAAP Net Loss in both periods was higher profitability in the Och-Ziff Operating Group due to lower operating expenses and higher incentive income.

The GAAP Net Loss in the 2012 second quarter and first half primarily resulted from non-cash expenses of $398.4 million and $796.8 million, respectively, associated with the Company’s reorganization in connection with its initial public offering (“IPO”) in November 2007. These expenses are related to the amortization of Group A Units, which represent equity interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group that were issued to the Company’s pre-IPO limited partners in exchange for their pre-IPO interests in those subsidiaries. The Group A Units generally vest annually over five years through November 2012, and therefore the amortization of these expenses is expected to result in a GAAP Net Loss on an annual basis through the end of this year. Once vested, Group A Units may be exchanged on a one-to-one basis for Class A Shares, pursuant to the new transfer restrictions described on page 7 of this press release.

Additionally, the GAAP Net Loss in the 2012 second quarter and first half was driven by non-cash expenses of $16.3 million and $34.1 million, respectively, for the amortization of equity-based compensation. These expenses primarily relate to RSUs granted to employees and executive managing directors, as well as Group A Units granted to executive managing directors subsequent to the IPO. Each RSU represents the right to receive one Class A Share upon vesting.

Throughout this press release, the Company presents financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. For a discussion of these non-GAAP measures, please see the discussion of “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this press release.

DISTRIBUTABLE EARNINGS (NON-GAAP)

The Company’s Distributable Earnings for the 2012 second quarter were $67.2 million, or $0.15 per Adjusted Class A Share, compared to $67.7 million, or $0.16 per Adjusted Class A Share, for the 2011 second quarter. Distributable Earnings for the 2012 first half were $124.5 million, or $0.27 per Adjusted Class A Share, compared to $132.9 million, or $0.32 per Adjusted Class A Share, in the 2011 first half.

The year-over-year decrease in Distributable Earnings for both periods was principally driven by higher taxes and non-compensation expenses, partially offset by higher incentive income and lower compensation and benefits.

Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure. For reconciliations of Distributable Earnings to the respective GAAP Net Losses for the periods discussed above, please see Exhibits 2 and 3 that accompany this press release. Additionally, please see the discussion of “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this press release, including the definitions of Distributable Earnings and Adjusted Class A Shares.

ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT

Och-Ziff’s assets under management were $29.9 billion as of June 30, 2012, $189.1 million lower than $30.1 billion as of March 31, 2012, and $160.2 million higher than $29.8 billion as of June 30, 2011. The year-over-year increase was driven by performance-related appreciation of $218.0 million and capital net outflows of $57.8 million.

ECONOMIC INCOME (NON-GAAP)

In addition to analyzing the Company’s results on a GAAP basis, management also reviews the Company’s results on an “Economic Income” basis. Economic Income excludes certain adjustments that are required for presentation of the Company’s results on a GAAP basis, but that management does not consider when evaluating operating performance in any given period. Management evaluates Economic Income for the Och-Ziff Funds segment, the Company’s only reportable segment under GAAP, and for the Company’s Other Operations. Economic Income for the Company equals the sum of Economic Income for the Och-Ziff Funds segment and the Company’s Other Operations.

For reconciliations of Economic Income and its components to the respective GAAP measures, please see Exhibits 2 through 5 that accompany this press release. Additionally, please see the discussion of “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this press release.

The Company conducts substantially all of its business through the Och-Ziff Funds segment, which provides asset management services to its hedge funds and other alternative investment vehicles. The Company’s Other Operations are primarily comprised of its real estate business, which provides asset management services to its real estate funds.

Economic Income Revenues (Non-GAAP)

Economic Income revenues for the 2012 second quarter were $141.9 million, a 7% increase from Economic Income revenues of $132.9 million for the 2011 second quarter. Management fees were $123.2 million, a 2% decrease from management fees of $125.3 million for the prior-year period. Incentive income was $18.4 million compared to $6.9 million in the prior-year period. Economic Income revenues for the 2012 first half were $261.3 million, a slight increase from Economic Income revenues of $258.2 million for the 2011 first half. Management fees were $241.1 million, a slight decrease from management fees of $243.3 million for the prior-year period. Incentive income was $19.6 million compared to $13.8 million in the prior-year period.

 

4


The year-over-year increase in Economic Income revenues for both periods was primarily due to an increase in incentive income in the Och-Ziff Funds segment, driven by $11.3 million of incentive income recognized in the second quarter of 2012 related to assets under management subject to three-year performance measurement periods. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in both periods in management fees in the Company’s Other Operations. Also partially offsetting the increase for the year-to-date period was a $6.0 million decrease in incentive income related to tax distributions taken in the first quarter of 2011 that did not recur in the first quarter of 2012.

Compensation and Benefits (Non-GAAP)

Compensation and benefits for the 2012 second quarter totaled $22.0 million, 6% lower than compensation and benefits of $23.3 million for the 2011 second quarter. Salaries and benefits for the 2012 second quarter totaled $19.5 million, a 6% increase from salaries and benefits of $18.4 million for the prior-year period.

Compensation and benefits for the 2012 first half totaled $42.7 million, 8% lower than compensation and benefits of $46.5 million for the 2011 first half. Salaries and benefits for the 2012 first half totaled $38.8 million, an 8% increase from salaries and benefits of $35.9 million for the prior-year period.

The year-over-year decrease in compensation and benefits for both periods was driven by a decrease in bonus expense due to lower guaranteed bonus accruals in the Och-Ziff Funds segment, partially offset by an increase in salaries and benefits in the Och-Ziff Funds segment due in part to an increase in our worldwide headcount.

The ratio of salaries and benefits to management fees increased from 15% in the 2011 second quarter and first half to 16% in the 2012 second quarter and first half due to the year-over-year increase in salaries and benefits while management fees decreased.

Non-Compensation Expenses (Non-GAAP)

Non-compensation expenses for the 2012 second quarter totaled $25.2 million, 13% higher than non-compensation expenses of $22.2 million for the 2011 second quarter. Non-compensation expenses for the 2012 first half totaled $47.7 million, an 11% increase from non-compensation expenses of $43.1 million for the prior-year period.

 

5


The increase in non-compensation expenses for both periods was driven by higher general, administrative and other expenses, primarily in the Och-Ziff Funds segment, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense.

The ratio of non-compensation expenses to management fees increased from 18% in the 2011 second quarter and first half to 20% in the 2012 second quarter and first half. The year-over-year increase in both periods was driven by higher non-compensation expenses while management fees decreased.

Economic Income (Non-GAAP)

Economic Income for the 2012 second quarter was $94.0 million, 9% higher than Economic Income of $86.4 million for the 2011 second quarter. Economic Income for the 2012 first half was $169.9 million, 2% higher than Economic Income of $166.9 million for the prior-year period.

The year-over-year increase for both periods were principally driven by higher incentive income and lower compensation and benefits, partially offset by increased non-compensation expenses and a decline in management fees.

CAPITAL

As of June 30, 2012, the number of Class A Shares outstanding was 141,538,557. For purposes of calculating Distributable Earnings per Share, the Company assumes that all the interests held by its executive managing directors and Ziff Investors Partnership, L.P. II and certain of its affiliates and control persons (the “Ziffs”) in the Och-Ziff Operating Group (collectively, “Partner Units”) and RSUs outstanding during the period have been converted on a one-to-one basis into Class A Shares (“Adjusted Class A Shares”). For the second quarter and first half ended June 30, 2012, the total weighted-average Adjusted Class A Shares outstanding were 454,310,582 and 453,794,112, respectively.

In June 2012, the Company repaid the indebtedness outstanding under its term loan due in July 2012 (“2007 Term Loan”), as well as the indebtedness outstanding under its aircraft loan due in May 2014. These repayments were funded through a borrowing under the delayed draw term loan facility the Company entered into in November 2011. An initial $6.5 million borrowing under the facility was made in November 2011 to fund a portion of the 2007 Term Loan repurchased and retired in connection with the Class A Share offering in November 2011 that was not funded by the net proceeds from the offering. An additional $384.5 million borrowing was made in June 2012 to repay the remaining indebtedness outstanding under both the 2007 Term Loan and the aircraft loan.

DIVIDEND

The Board of Directors of Och-Ziff declared a 2012 second-quarter dividend of $0.14 per Class A Share. The dividend is payable on August 20, 2012 to holders of record as of the close of business on August 13, 2012. The ex-dividend date will be August 9, 2012.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the dividend will be treated as a partnership distribution. Based on the best information currently available, the Company estimates that when calculating withholding taxes, the entire amount of the 2012 second-quarter dividend will be treated as U.S. source dividend income.

Non-U.S. holders of Class A Shares are generally subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% (subject to reduction by applicable treaty or other exception) on their share of U.S. source dividends and certain other types of U.S. source income realized by the Company. With respect to interest, however, no withholding is generally required if proper certification (on an IRS Form W-8) of a beneficial owner’s foreign status has been filed with the withholding agent. Non-U.S. holders must generally provide the withholding agent with a properly completed IRS Form W-8 to obtain any reduction in withholding.

PARTNER INCENTIVE PLAN

In August 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a new Partner Incentive Plan (the “PIP”) in order to further the retention of its executive managing directors.

The Company’s executive managing directors approved new transfer restrictions that will generally limit their ability to transfer or exchange their Group A Units. In 2013 and 2014, these transfer restrictions will allow the Company’s executive managing directors, including those who were executive managing directors at the time of the Company’s IPO in 2007 (the “Pre-IPO Partners”) to exchange Group A Units representing up to 10% of their vested partnership interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group per year (determined on a cumulative basis) and to sell any resulting Class A Shares with the approval of the Exchange Committee. In 2015, the Exchange Committee will determine in its sole discretion whether to allow any additional exchanges and sales by any of the Company’s executive managing directors through 2017, provided that such exchanges and sales will generally not exceed 10% of an executive managing director’s vested partnership interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group per year and resultant Class A Shares (determined on a cumulative basis) for each year through 2017. Prior to the adoption of these modifications, the Company’s executive managing directors would have been entitled to exchange 75% of their vested Group A Units and sell the resultant Class A Shares. The Company believes that these modifications, in combination with the PIP, maintain the strong alignment of interests between the Pre-IPO Partners and our Class A Shareholders by further motivating the Pre-IPO Partners to remain with Och-Ziff and contribute to its future success.

In consideration of the Company’s executive managing directors becoming subject to these transfer restrictions and reflective of the Pre-IPO Partners’ commitment to the Company, the Board adopted the PIP. Mr. Och will not participate in the PIP, but will continue to participate in the Company’s profits solely through distributions from his existing equity ownership stake.

 

7


Under the terms of the PIP, participating executive managing directors may be eligible to receive discretionary grants of annual performance awards (“Performance Awards”) over a five-year period commencing in 2013. Performance Awards may be satisfied in Och-Ziff Operating Group D Units (“Performance Unit Awards”) and may also be satisfied in cash (“Performance Cash Awards”). All Performance Awards will be granted subject to compliance with each participating executive managing director’s non-compete obligations and may be clawed back.

The aggregate number of discretionary annual Performance Unit Awards that may be granted to the Pre-IPO Partners on our Partner Management Committee and certain other Pre-IPO Partners (the “Eligible Pre-IPO Partners”), collectively, will be up to 3,628,907 Och-Ziff Operating Group D Units per year. The Performance Unit Awards will be vested on grant, subject to the transfer restrictions as described above. In aggregate, the Eligible Pre-IPO Partners collectively may receive up to 18,144,535 Och-Ziff Operating Group D Units over the five-year period.

The aggregate dilution to Class A Shareholders resulting from the issuance of the maximum number of Performance Unit Awards to Eligible Pre-IPO Partners over the five-year period would be approximately 4%, based on the number of Adjusted Class A Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2012.

The Eligible Pre-IPO Partners, collectively, may also be eligible to receive discretionary annual Performance Cash Awards if the Company earns incentive income in the relevant year. The maximum aggregate amount of this award will be capped at 10% of the Company’s incentive income earned during that year, up to a maximum of $52.4 million. In aggregate, the Eligible Pre-IPO Partners collectively can earn a maximum of $262.0 million over the five-year period. Whether any Performance Unit Award and any Performance Cash Award is awarded to any Eligible Pre-IPO Partner in a particular year, and the amount of any such awards, shall be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board in its sole discretion, based on recommendations from Mr. Och for that year.

For additional information, please see the Company’s Current Report filed on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 2, 2012.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company’s non-GAAP measures should not be considered as alternatives to the Company’s GAAP Net Loss or cash flow from operations, or as indicative of liquidity or the cash available to fund operations. The Company’s non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

For reconciliations of the Company’s non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, please see Exhibits 2 through 5 attached to this press release.

Economic Income

In addition to analyzing the Company’s results on a GAAP basis, management also reviews the Company’s results on an “Economic Income” basis. Economic Income for the Company, the Och-Ziff Funds segment and Other Operations excludes the adjustments described below that are required for presentation of the Company’s results on a GAAP basis, but that management does not consider when evaluating the operating performance of the Company in any given period. Management, therefore, uses Economic Income as the basis on which it evaluates the financial performance of the Company and makes resource allocation and other operating decisions. Management considers it important that investors review the same operating information that it uses.

Economic Income is a measure of pre-tax operating performance that excludes the following from the Company’s results on a GAAP basis:

 

   

Income allocations to the Company’s executive managing directors and the Ziffs on their direct interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group. Management reviews operating performance at the Och-Ziff Operating Group level, where substantially all of the Company’s operations are performed, prior to making any income allocations.

 

   

Reorganization expenses related to the Company’s IPO, equity-based compensation expenses and depreciation and amortization expenses, as management does not consider these non-cash expenses to be reflective of operating performance.

 

9


   

Changes in the tax receivable agreement liability and net gains (losses) on investments in Och-Ziff funds, as management does not consider these items to be reflective of operating performance.

 

   

Amounts related to the consolidated Och-Ziff funds, including the related eliminations of management fees and incentive income, as management reviews the total amount of management fees and incentive income earned in relation to total assets under management and fund performance.

In addition, the full amount of deferred cash compensation and expenses related to compensation arrangements based on annual investment performance are recognized on the date they are determined (generally in the fourth quarter of each year), as management determines the total amount of compensation based on the Company’s performance in the year of the award.

As a result of the adjustments described above, as well as an adjustment to present management fees net of recurring placement and related service fees (rather than considering these fees an expense), management fees, compensation and benefits, non-compensation expenses and net loss (income) allocated to noncontrolling interests as presented on an Economic Income basis are also non-GAAP measures. No adjustments to the GAAP basis have been made for incentive income, other revenues and net gains (losses) on joint ventures.

Distributable Earnings

Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure of after-tax operating performance and equals Economic Income less Adjusted Income Taxes. Adjusted Income Taxes are estimated assuming the conversion of all outstanding Partner Units into Class A Shares, on a one-to-one basis, and include the impact of payments under the tax receivable agreement. Therefore, all income (loss) of the Och-Ziff Operating Group allocated to the Partner Units is treated as if it were allocated to Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC. Partner Units represent interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group held by the Company’s executive managing directors and the Ziffs, including the Group A Units and Group D Units.

Distributable Earnings per Share is equal to Distributable Earnings divided by the weighted-average number of Adjusted Class A Shares. Management believes Distributable Earnings provides useful information to investors because it uses Distributable Earnings, among other financial information, to determine the earnings available to distribute as dividends to holders of the Company’s Class A Shares and to the Company’s executive managing directors and the Ziffs with respect to their Partner Units.

(3) These items are presented on a GAAP basis, accordingly no adjustments to or reconciliations of these items are presented.
(4) Adjustment to exclude equity-based compensation, as management does not consider these non-cash expenses to be reflective of the operating performance of the Company. Additionally, the full amount of deferred cash compensation and expenses related to compensation arrangements based on annual investment performance is recognized on the date it is determined (generally in the fourth quarter of each year), as management determines the total amount of compensation based on the Company’s performance in the year of the award.
(5) Adjustment to exclude depreciation, amortization and changes in the tax receivable agreement liability, as management does not consider these items to be reflective of the operating performance of the Company. Additionally, recurring placement and related service fees are excluded, as management considers these fees a reduction in management fees, not an expense.
(6) Adjustment to exclude net gains (losses) on investments in Och-Ziff funds, as management does not consider these gains (losses) to be reflective of the operating performance of the Company.
(7) Represents the net gains (losses) on joint ventures established to expand certain of the Company’s private investments platforms.
(8) Adjustment to exclude amounts allocated to the executive managing directors and the Ziffs on their interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group, as management reviews the operating performance of the Company at the Och-Ziff Operating Group level. The Company conducts substantially all of its activities through the Och-Ziff Operating Group. Additionally, the impact of the consolidated Och-Ziff funds, including the allocation of earnings (losses) to investors in those funds, is also removed.
(9) Represents the residual interests in the domestic real estate management business not owned by the Company.

(1) The items presented on an Economic Income basis above are the components that comprise Economic Income for the Och-Ziff Funds segment, Other Operations and the Company.
(2) Adjustment to present management fees net of recurring placement and related service fees, as management considers these fees a reduction in management fees, not an expense. The impact of eliminations related to the consolidated Och-Ziff funds is also removed.
(3) These items are presented on a GAAP basis, accordingly no adjustments to or reconciliations of these items are presented.
(4) Adjustment to exclude equity-based compensation, as management does not consider these non-cash expenses to be reflective of the operating performance of the Company. Additionally, the full amount of deferred cash compensation and expenses related to compensation arrangements based on annual investment performance is recognized on the date it is determined (generally in the fourth quarter of each year), as management determines the total amount of compensation based on the Company’s performance in the year of the award.
(5) Adjustment to exclude depreciation, amortization and changes in the tax receivable agreement liability, as management does not consider these items to be reflective of the operating performance of the Company. Additionally, recurring placement and related service fees are excluded, as management considers these fees a reduction in management fees, not an expense.
(6) Adjustment to exclude net gains (losses) on investments in Och-Ziff funds, as management does not consider these gains (losses) to be reflective of the operating performance of the Company.
(7) Represents the net gains (losses) on joint ventures established to expand certain of the Company’s private investments platforms.
(8) Adjustment to exclude amounts allocated to the executive managing directors and the Ziffs on their interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group, as management reviews the operating performance of the Company at the Och-Ziff Operating Group level. The Company conducts substantially all of its activities through the Och-Ziff Operating Group. Additionally, the impact of the consolidated Och-Ziff funds, including the allocation of earnings (losses) to investors in those funds, is also removed.
(9) Represents the residual interests in the domestic real estate management business not owned by the Company.

Amounts presented in this table are not the amounts used to calculate management fees and incentive income for the respective periods.
(2) Appreciation (depreciation) reflects the aggregate net capital appreciation (depreciation) for the entire period and is presented on a total return basis, net of all fees and expenses (except incentive income on unrealized gains attributable to investments that the Company, as investment manager, determines lack a readily ascertainable fair value, are illiquid or otherwise should be held until the resolution of a special event or circumstance (“Special Investments”) that could reduce returns on these investments at the time of realization), and includes the reinvestment of all dividends and other income. Management fees and incentive income vary by product.
(3) Net return represents a composite of the average return of the feeder funds that comprise each of the Company’s most significant master funds. Net return is presented on a total return basis, net of all fees and expenses (except incentive income on Special Investments that could reduce returns on these investments at the time of realization), and includes the reinvestment of all dividends and other income. Performance includes realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable to Special Investments and initial public offering investments that are not allocated to all investors in the feeder funds. Investors that were not allocated Special Investments and/or initial public offering investments may experience materially different returns.

(1) Net return represents a composite of the average return of the feeder funds that comprise each of the Company’s most significant master funds. Net return is presented on a total return basis, net of all fees and expenses (except incentive income on unrealized gains attributable to investments that the Company, as investment manager, determines lack a readily ascertainable fair value, are illiquid or otherwise should be held until the resolution of a special event or circumstance (“Special Investments”) that could reduce returns on these investments at the time of realization), and includes the reinvestment of all dividends and other income. Performance includes realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable to Special Investments and initial public offering investments that are not allocated to all investors in the feeder funds. Investors that were not allocated Special Investments and/or initial public offering investments may experience materially different returns.
(2) This comparison shows the returns of the S&P 500 Index (SPTR) and the MSCI World Index (GDDLWI) (“Broader Market Indices”) against certain Och-Ziff funds (the “funds”). This comparison is intended solely for illustrative purposes to show a historical comparison of the funds to the broader equity markets, as represented by the Broader Market Indices, and should not be considered as an indication of how the funds will perform relative to the Broader Market Indices in the future. The Broader Market Indices are not performance benchmarks of the funds. The funds are not managed to correlate in any way with the returns or composition of the Broader Market Indices, which are unmanaged. It is not possible to invest in an unmanaged index. You should not assume that there is any material overlap between the securities in the funds and those that comprise the Broader Market Indices. The S&P 500 Index is an equity index whose value is calculated as the free-float weighted average of the share prices of the 500 large-cap companies listed on the NYSE and NASDAQ. The MSCI World Index is a free-float adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets. Returns of the Broader Market Indices have not been reduced by fees and expenses associated with investing in securities and include the reinvestment of dividends.
