Apollo Reports First Quarter 2023 Results

NEW YORK, May 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Apollo Global Management, Inc. (NYSE: APO) (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Apollo”) today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Marc Rowan, Chief Executive Officer at Apollo said, “The consequences of the past decade-plus of artificially low interest rates were on full display in the first quarter. While the traditional banking model navigates certain challenges, the role of private markets in financing the broader economy becomes increasingly important. We’ve chosen a market that is differentiated within our industry – senior secured, safe yield at the top of the capital structure – that positions us well for the many evolving opportunities in this environment. We have tremendous runway in front of us and we’re highly focused on executing the attractive growth plan we laid out at the beginning of the year.”

Apollo issued a full detailed presentation of its first quarter ended March 31, 2023 results, which can be viewed on Apollo’s Investor Relations website at ir.apollo.com.
