Non-GAAP Measures Fee-Related Earnings and Related Components Fee-Related Earnings is a supplemental non-GAAP measure of operating performance used to make operating decisions and assess operating performance. Fee-Related Earnings excludes certain items that are required for the presentation of the Company’s results on a GAAP basis. Management also reviews the components that comprise Fee-Related Earnings (i.e., Adjusted Revenues and Adjusted Expenses) on the same basis used to calculate Fee-Related Earnings, and such components are also non-GAAP measures and have been identified as “Adjusted” throughout this presentation. Fee-Related Earnings excludes various items that are required for the presentation of our results under GAAP, including the following: noncontrolling interests in the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships; equity-based compensation expense; amortization of intangible assets; Business Combination-related expenses; changes in TRA, Earnout Securities and warrant liabilities; net losses on retirement of debt; interest and taxes. In addition, management reviews Adjusted Revenues by reducing GAAP revenues for certain general, administrative and other expenses that primarily relate to expense reimbursements from the Company’s products, which are presented gross under GAAP but presented net for the Company’s adjusted non-GAAP measures. Distributable Earnings Distributable Earnings is a supplemental non-GAAP measure of operating performance that equals Fee-Related Earnings less interest expense and amounts payable for taxes and TRA payments related to the respective period’s earnings. Amounts payable for taxes and the TRA presents the total estimated GAAP provision for current income taxes payable and the current payable under the TRA, assuming that all Distributable Earnings were allocated to Blue Owl Capital Inc., which would occur following the exchange of all Blue Owl Operating Group Units for Class A Shares or Class B Shares. The GAAP provision for current income taxes payable and the current payable under the TRA reflect the benefit of tax deductions that are excluded when calculating Distributable Earnings (e.g., equity-based compensation expenses, net losses on retirement of debt, certain Business Combination-related expenses, tax goodwill, etc.). Management believes that Distributable Earnings can be useful as a supplemental measure to the Company’s GAAP results in assessing the amount of earnings available for distribution.


Slide 22

Non-GAAP Measures (cont’d) Adjusted Fee-Related Earnings and Adjusted Distributable Earnings Adjusted Fee-Related Earnings and Adjusted Distributable Earnings are supplemental non-GAAP measures of operating performance that are determined on the same basis as Fee-Related Earnings and Distributable Earnings, respectively, assuming that the Dyal Capital acquisition had closed on April 1, 2021. Adjusted Revenues were based on the actual revenues generated by the Dyal Capital funds for the period, and Adjusted Expenses were based on the incremental expense levels experienced in the stub period following the acquisition closing date. These expense levels were based on current results and may not be indicative of future results. Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP measure of operating performance used to assess our ability to service our debt obligations. Adjusted EBITDA is equal to Distributable Earnings plus interest expense, taxes and TRA payable, and fixed assets depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that supplements and should be considered in addition to and not in lieu of our GAAP results, and such measure should not be considered as indicative of our liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measured used by other companies. Adjusted Shares Adjusted Shares represents the weighted-average outstanding interests that are participating in distributions as of the end of each respective period. Adjusted Shares is the sum of Blue Owl Capital Inc.’s Class A Shares (and Class B Share to the extent outstanding in the future) and Common Units of the Blue Owl Operating Group. Common Units are limited partner interests held by certain members of management and employees, as well as other third parties in the Blue Owl Operating Group. Subject to certain restrictions, Common Units are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis for either Class A Shares or Class B Shares if held by certain senior members of management. As of June 30, 2021, Adjusted Shares were 1,243,042,338, which was comprised of 320,005,258 Class A Shares (excludes 9,050,000 fully vested RSUs that do not participate in dividends) and 923,037,080 Common Units.
