Summary
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) has filed a Current Report (8-K) on January 2, 2025, to provide a preliminary estimate of its alternative net investment income for the fourth quarter of 2024. The company anticipates alternative net investment income to be approximately $265 million (pre-tax), reflecting an estimated annualized return of 9% on alternative net investments. This disclosure, made prior to the official earnings release scheduled for February 4, 2025, offers an early look at performance drivers, particularly within its subsidiary Athene Holding Ltd. Investors should note that these are preliminary figures, and actual results may differ materially once the full financial statements are prepared and audited. The report highlights strong performance within Athene's pooled investment vehicle, with an estimated annualized return of 11% on its alternative investments. While this preliminary data provides valuable insight, it is not a substitute for the comprehensive financial results expected next month, and caution is advised in its interpretation.
