NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Apollo Global Management, LLC (NYSE:APO) (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Apollo”) today reported results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2013.

Apollo reported ENI after taxes of $421.7 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, compared to $655.8 million for the same period in 2012. The $234.1 million decrease in ENI was driven by Apollo's Incentive Business, which reported ENI of $366.2 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, compared to $632.6 million for the same period in 2012. The $266.4 million year-over-year decrease in ENI for the Incentive Business was largely the result of lower carried interest income from Apollo's private equity segment during the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012.

Apollo reported ENI after taxes of $1,889.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to ENI after taxes of $1,475.8 million in 2012. The $413.6 million increase in ENI after taxes was driven by Apollo’s Management and Incentive Businesses, which reported ENI of $330.8 million and $1,796.9 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $222.9 million and $1,411.5 million, respectively, in 2012.

Apollo's total AUM was $161.2 billion as of December 31, 2013, an increase of $47.8 billion compared to $113.4 billion as of December 31, 2012. The increase in total AUM and fee-generating AUM was driven by growth in Apollo's credit and private equity segments. Fee-generating AUM was $128.4 billion as of December 31, 2013, an increase of $46.5 billion compared to $81.9 billion as of December 31, 2012. During the fourth quarter of 2013, Athene Holding Ltd. (together with its subsidiaries, “Athene”), for which Apollo currently provides asset allocation and related services through its consolidated subsidiary, Athene Asset Management, L.P. ("Athene Asset Management"), closed its acquisition of the U.S. annuity operations of Aviva plc (“Aviva USA”), which added approximately $44 billion of total and fee-generating AUM to Apollo’s credit segment.

U.S. GAAP results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013 included net income attributable to Apollo Global Management, LLC of $159.2 million, or $0.94 per Class A share, compared to $171.5 million, or $1.12 per Class A share, for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2013, net income attributable to Apollo Global Management, LLC was $659.4 million, or $4.06 per Class A share, compared to net income of $311.0 million, or $2.06 per Class A share, for the year ended December 31, 2012.

“Our results for the fourth quarter of 2013 completed an exceptional year for Apollo,” said Leon Black, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We recently held the final close for Fund VIII, the largest fund in our firm’s history, and we increased total AUM by 42% to $161 billion during 2013. Over the last four quarters we also returned nearly $23 billion to our fund investors across all of Apollo’s business segments, and we generated $3.98 per share in cash distributions for our shareholders. As we look to 2014 and beyond, we believe Apollo’s integrated global investment platform leaves us well-positioned to continue to deliver strong returns to our investors as we remain committed to our disciplined, value-oriented investment approach.”

Total revenue for Apollo's combined segments was $822.5 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $363.0 million, or 31%, compared to the same period in 2012, driven primarily by a $435.5 million decrease in total carried interest income. Total expenses for Apollo’s combined segments were $384.9 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $144.6 million, or 27%, compared to the same period in 2012, driven primarily by a decrease in profit sharing expense.

Total revenue for Apollo's combined segments was $3,823.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $848.9 million, or 29%, from 2012, driven primarily by a $695.6 million increase in total carried interest income. Total expenses for Apollo’s combined segments were $1,836.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $364.0 million, or 25%, from 2012, driven primarily by an increase in profit sharing expense.

Total revenue for Apollo's Management Business was $295.7 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $72.5 million, or 32%, from the same period in 2012. This includes management fee revenues of $231.8 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $55.4 million, or 31%, from the same period in 2012. There was also $55.2 million of advisory and transaction fees for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $17.7 million, or 47% from the same period in 2012, primarily due to increased monitoring fees related to Athene in the fourth quarter of 2013.

Total revenue for Apollo's Management Business was $964.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $153.3 million, or 19%, from 2012 driven primarily by an increase in Apollo’s fee-generating AUM. This includes management fee revenues of $730.6 million for full year 2013, an increase of $107.6 million, or 17%, from 2012. There was also $196.6 million of advisory and transaction fees for the full year 2013, an increase of $46.6 million from 2012, primarily due to monitoring fees related to Athene.

Total expenses for Apollo's Management Business were $187.1 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $23.0 million, or 14%, from the same period in 2012. Total compensation expenses, including salary and benefits and equity-based compensation, were $86.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, a decrease of $2.8 million from the same period in 2012. Non-compensation expenses for Apollo's Management Business were $100.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2013, an increase of $25.8 million from the same period in 2012 primarily due to fund formation expenses in connection with the final close of Apollo Investment Fund VIII, L.P. ("Fund VIII").

Total expenses for Apollo's Management Business were $663.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $63.0 million from 2012. Total compensation expenses, including salary and benefits and equity-based compensation, were $361.1 million for the full year 2013, an increase of $17.6 million, or 5%, from 2012. Non-compensation expenses for Apollo's Management Business were $302.1 million during the full year 2013, an increase of $45.4 million from 2012 primarily due to higher professional fees and fund formation expenses.

Apollo's Incentive Business reported $526.8 million of total carried interest income for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $435.5 million from the same period in 2012. As a result of the decrease in carried interest income, Apollo reported total profit sharing expense of $197.8 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $167.6 million from the same period in 2012. The decrease in total carried interest income during the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 was driven by the absence in the fourth quarter of 2013 of "catch-up" unrealized carried interest income from Fund VI that was earned in the fourth quarter of 2012 as the fund crossed its preferred return hurdle. During the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, the Incentive Business generated $631.8 million of realized gains, which was largely attributable to dispositions relating to a number of investments held by funds managed by Apollo, including LyondellBasell Industries N.V., Sprouts Farmers Market, Inc., CKE Restaurants, Inc., Evertec, Inc., Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd., Taminco Corporation, and Countrywide plc.

Apollo's Incentive Business reported $2,859.2 million of total carried interest income for the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $695.6 million from 2012. As a result of the increase in carried interest income, Apollo reported total profit sharing expense of $1,173.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $301.0 million from 2012. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Incentive Business generated $2,456.4 million of realized gains, which was attributable to significant dispositions relating to numerous investments held by funds managed by Apollo.

Private Equity Segment

Apollo's private equity segment generated ENI of $314.8 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, compared to $601.9 million for the same period in 2012. The year-over-year decrease in ENI was largely driven by lower carried interest income of $445.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to $873.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2012.

Apollo's private equity funds continued to perform well as measured by internal rate of return (“IRR”) and appreciated by 9% during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013. From its inception in 2008 through December 31, 2013, Fund VII generated an annual gross and net IRR of 39% and 30%, respectively. Fund VI, which began investing in 2006, generated an annual gross and net IRR of 15% and 12%, respectively, since its inception through December 31, 2013. The combined fair value of Apollo's private equity funds, including AP Alternative Assets, L.P. (“AAA”), was 65% above cost as of December 31, 2013.

On December 31, 2013 Apollo held the final close of its current flagship private equity fund, Fund VIII with total third party committed capital of $17.5 billion (excluding approximately $880 million of additional capital from Apollo and affiliated investors).

Management fees from Apollo's private equity segment were $88.0 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, which increased by $15.7 million compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to the commencement of Fund VIII’s investment period and associated one-time catch-up fees. Total Management Business expenses within the private equity segment were $80.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, which increased by $22.1 million compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to fund formation expenses associated with the final closing of Fund VIII. As of December 31, 2013, Apollo's private equity segment AUM was $49.9 billion, compared to $37.8 billion at December 31, 2012.

Credit Segment

Apollo's credit segment generated ENI of $160.1 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, compared to ENI of $96.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2012. The year-over-year increase in ENI resulted from an increased contribution from the Management Business, which generated ENI of $97.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to $27.0 million for the same period in 2012 as a result of higher management fees and advisory and transaction fees.

Management fees from Apollo's credit segment were $130.6 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, which increased by $38.6 million, or 42%, compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to higher fee-generating AUM from Athene.

Total expenses for the real estate segment during the fourth quarter of 2013 were $20.0 million, an increase of $0.9 million, or 5%, compared to the same period in 2012.

(1)		Figures include the market values, estimated fair value of certain unrealized investments and capital committed to investments.
(2)		Fund VIII and AION Capital Partners Limited ("AION") were launched during 2013 and 2012, respectively. Fund VIII had its final capital raise in 2013, establishing its vintage year.
(3)		Returns have not been presented as the fund commenced investing capital less than 24 months prior to the period indicated and therefore such return information was deemed not meaningful.
(4)		Fund I and Fund II were structured such that investments were made from either fund depending on which fund had available capital. We do not differentiate between Fund I and Fund II investments for purposes of performance figures because they are not meaningful on a separate basis and do not demonstrate the progression of returns over time. The general partners and managers of Funds I, II and MIA, as well as the general partner of Fund III were excluded assets in connection with the 2007 reorganization of Apollo. As a result, Apollo Global Management, LLC did not receive the economics associated with these entities. The investment performance of these funds is presented to illustrate fund performance associated with our managing partners and other investment professionals.
(5)		Total IRR is calculated based on total cash flows for all funds presented.
(6)		AAA completed its initial public offering in June 2006 and is the sole limited partner in AAA Investments, L.P. (“AAA Investments”). AAA was originally designed to give investors in its common units exposure as a limited partner to certain of the strategies that we employ and allowed us to manage the asset allocations to those strategies by investing alongside our private equity funds and directly in our credit funds and certain other opportunistic investments that we sponsor and manage. On October 31, 2012, AAA Investments consummated a transaction whereby substantially all of its assets were contributed to Athene in exchange for common shares of Athene Holding Ltd., cash and a short term promissory note (the “AAA Transaction”). After the AAA Transaction, Athene was AAA’s only material investment and as of December 31, 2013, AAA, through its investment in AAA Investments, was the largest shareholder of Athene Holding Ltd. with an approximate 72.5% ownership stake (without giving effect to restricted common shares issued under Athene’s management equity plan and conversion of AAA Investments' note receivable), and effectively 45% of the voting power of Athene. Additional information related to AAA can be found on its website www.apolloalternativeassets.com. The information contained in AAA’s website is not part of this press release.

APOLLO GLOBAL MANAGEMENT, LLC
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND DEFINITIONS (UNAUDITED)

Non-GAAP Financial Information

Apollo discloses the following financial measures that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“Non-GAAP”):

Economic Net Income, or ENI, as well as ENI After Taxes are key performance measures used by management in evaluating the performance of Apollo’s private equity, credit and real estate segments. Management also believes the components of ENI such as the amount of management fees, advisory and transaction fees and carried interest income are indicative of Apollo’s performance. Management uses these performance measures in making key operating decisions such as the following:

—

Decisions related to the allocation of resources such as staffing decisions including hiring and locations for deployment of the new hires;

—

Decisions related to capital deployment such as providing capital to facilitate growth for the business and/or to facilitate expansion into new businesses; and

—

Decisions related to expenses, such as determining annual discretionary bonuses and equity-based compensation awards to its employees. With respect to compensation, management seeks to align the interests of certain professionals and selected other individuals with those of the investors in such funds and those of the company’s shareholders by providing such individuals a profit sharing interest in the carried interest income earned in relation to the funds. To achieve that objective, a certain amount of compensation is based on the company’s performance and growth for the year.

These measures of profitability have certain limitations in that they do not take into account certain items included under U.S. GAAP. ENI represents segment income (loss) attributable to Apollo Global Management, LLC, which excludes the impact of non-cash charges related to RSUs granted in connection with the 2007 private placement and amortization of AOG units, income tax expense, amortization of intangibles associated with the 2007 reorganization as well as acquisitions and Non-controlling Interests excluding the remaining interest held by certain individuals who receive an allocation of income from certain of our credit management companies. In addition, segment data excludes the assets, liabilities and operating results of the funds and VIEs that are included in the consolidated financial statements.

ENI After Taxes represents ENI adjusted to reflect income tax provision on ENI that has been calculated assuming that all income is allocated to Apollo Global Management, LLC, which would occur following an exchange of all AOG units for Class A shares of Apollo Global Management, LLC. The assumptions and methodology impact the implied income tax provision which is consistent with those methodologies and assumptions used in calculating the income tax provision for Apollo’s consolidated statements of operations under U.S. GAAP. We believe this measure is more consistent with how we assess the performance of our segments which is described above in our definition of ENI.
ENI After Taxes per Share represents ENI After Taxes which is divided by Non-GAAP Weighted Average Diluted Shares Outstanding. We believe ENI After Taxes per Share provides useful information to shareholders because management uses ENI After Taxes per Share as the basis to derive our earnings available for the determination of distributions to Class A shareholders.

APOLLO GLOBAL MANAGEMENT, LLC
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND DEFINITIONS (UNAUDITED)

Non-GAAP Weighted Average Diluted Shares Outstanding is calculated using the GAAP Weighted Average Outstanding Class A Shares plus Non-GAAP adjustments assuming (i) the exchange of all of the AOG units for 229,968,919 Class A shares and (ii) the settlement of the weighted average vested RSUs in the form of Class A shares during the period. Management uses this measure in determining ENI After Taxes per Share described above.
Non-GAAP Diluted Shares Outstanding is calculated using the GAAP Outstanding Class A Shares plus Non-GAAP adjustments assuming (i) the exchange of all of the AOG units for 228,954,598 Class A shares and (ii) the settlement of the vested RSUs in the form of Class A shares during the period. Management uses this measure, taking into account the unvested RSUs that participate in distributions, in determining our Class A shares eligible for cash distributions.

Definitions

Assets Under Management, or AUM, refers to the investments we manage or with respect to which we have control, including capital we have the right to call from our investors pursuant to their capital commitments to various funds. Our AUM equals the sum of:

(i) the fair value of our private equity investments plus the capital that we are entitled to call from our investors pursuant to the terms of their capital commitments to the extent a fund is within the commitment period in which management fees are calculated based on total commitments to the fund;

(ii) the net asset value of our credit funds, other than certain CLOs, which we measure by using the mark-to-market value of the aggregate principal amount of the underlying collateralized loan obligation) or certain CLO and collateralized debt obligation credit funds that have a fee generating basis other than mark-to-market assets or liabilities, plus used or available leverage and/or capital commitments;

(iii) the gross asset value or net asset value of our real estate entities and the structured portfolio company investments included within the funds we manage, which includes the leverage used by such structured portfolio companies;

(iv) the incremental value associated with the reinsurance investments of the portfolio company assets that we manage; and

(v) the fair value of any other investments that we manage plus unused credit facilities, including capital commitments for investments that may require pre-qualification before investment plus any other capital commitments available for investment that are not otherwise included in the clauses above.

Our AUM measure includes Assets Under Management for which we charge either no or nominal fees. Our definition of AUM is not based on any definition of Assets Under Management contained in our operating agreement or in any of our Apollo fund management agreements. We consider multiple factors for determining what should be included in our definition of AUM. Such factors include but are not limited to (1) our ability to influence the investment decisions for existing and available assets; (2) our ability to generate income from the underlying assets in our funds; and (3) the AUM measures that we use internally or believe are used by other investment managers. Given the differences in the investment strategies and structures among other alternative investment managers, our calculation of AUM may differ from the calculations employed by other investment managers and, as a result, this measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures presented by other investment managers.

APOLLO GLOBAL MANAGEMENT, LLC
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND DEFINITIONS (UNAUDITED)

We use AUM as a performance measurement of our investment activities, as well as to monitor fund size in relation to professional resource and infrastructure needs.

Fee-generating AUM consists of assets that we manage and on which we earn management fees or monitoring fees pursuant to management agreements on a basis that varies among the Apollo funds. Management fees are normally based on “net asset value,” “gross assets,” “adjusted par asset value,” “adjusted cost of all unrealized portfolio investments,” “capital commitments,” “adjusted assets,” “stockholders’ equity,” “invested capital” or “capital contributions,” each as defined in the applicable management agreement. Monitoring fees, also referred to as advisory fees, are generally based on the total value of certain structured portfolio company investments, which normally include leverage, less any portion of such total value that is already considered in fee-generating AUM.
Non-fee generating AUM consists of assets that do not produce management fees or monitoring fees. These assets generally consist of the following:

(i) fair value above invested capital for those funds that earn management fees based on invested capital;

(ii) net asset values related to general partner and co-investment ownership;

(iii) unused credit facilities;

(iv) available commitments on those funds that generate management fees on invested capital;

(v) structured portfolio company investments that do not generate monitoring fees; and

(vi) the difference between gross asset and net asset value for those funds that earn management fees based on net asset value.

We use non-fee generating AUM combined with fee-generating AUM as a performance measurement of our investment activities, as well as to monitor fund size in relation to professional resource and infrastructure needs. Non-fee generating AUM includes assets on which we could earn carried interest income.

Private equity dollars invested is the aggregate amount of dollars invested by certain of Apollo’s private equity funds during a given period, which we believe is a useful supplemental measure because it provides shareholders with information about the capital deployed for investment opportunities in a given period.
Uncalled private equity commitments represents unfunded capital commitments that certain of Apollo’s private equity funds have received from its limited partners to contribute capital to fund future or current investments and expenses, which we believe is a useful supplemental measure because it provides shareholders with information about the unfunded capital commitments available to be deployed for future or current investments and expenses for our private equity funds.
“Gross IRR” of a fund represents the cumulative investment-related cash flows for all of the investors in the fund on the basis of the actual timing of investment inflows and outflows (for unrealized investments assuming disposition on December 31, 2013 or other date specified) aggregated on a gross basis quarterly, and the return is annualized and compounded before management fees, carried interest and certain other fund expenses (including interest incurred by the fund itself) and measures the returns on the fund’s investments as a whole without regard to whether all of the returns would, if distributed, be payable to the fund’s investors.
“Net IRR” of a fund means the gross IRR applicable to all investors, including related parties which may not pay fees, net of management fees, organizational expenses, transaction costs, and certain other fund expenses (including interest incurred by the fund itself). The realized and the estimated unrealized value is adjusted such that a percentage of up to 20.0% of the unrealized gain is allocated to the general partner, thereby reducing the balance attributable to fund investors carried interest all offset to the extent of interest income, and measures returns based on amounts that, if distributed, would be paid to investors of the fund to the extent that an Apollo fund exceeds all requirements detailed within the applicable fund agreement.
