Apollo Global Management, Inc. Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2026
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) reported strong financial results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026. Total revenues surged by 63.7% year-over-year for the quarter to $11.15 billion and by 31.1% for the six months to $16.21 billion, largely driven by significant growth in the Retirement Services segment, particularly from investment-related gains and net investment income. The Asset Management segment also demonstrated robust growth, with revenues increasing by 47.0% year-over-year for the quarter, fueled by higher management fees, advisory fees, and investment income. Net income attributable to Apollo Global Management, Inc. common stockholders was $1.34 billion for the quarter, a substantial increase from $605 million in the prior year. For the six-month period, the company reported a net loss of $594 million compared to a net income of $1.02 billion in the prior year, impacted by significant tax provisions and adjustments. The company's Fee Related Earnings (FRE) for the Asset Management segment saw a healthy increase of 25.2% for the quarter and 27.6% for the six months, indicating continued strength in its core fee-generating business. The Retirement Services segment's Spread Related Earnings (SRE) showed a more modest increase of 6.8% for the quarter but a slight decrease of 1.8% for the six months, reflecting the impact of higher funding costs and interest expenses. Total Assets Under Management (AUM) reached $1.05 trillion as of June 30, 2026, up from $839.6 billion in the prior year, highlighting the company's continued success in capital deployment and fundraising across its credit and equity strategies. The company also successfully managed its liquidity, ending the quarter with $25.4 billion in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and substantial credit facilities available.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Financial Results (Aug 4, 2026)
Apollo Global Management reported strong second-quarter 2026 operating results, led by record Fee Related Earnings (FRE) of $785 million, up 25% year over year, and record Spread Related Earnings (SRE) of $877 million, up 7%. Adjusted Net Income (ANI), the company's primary non-GAAP earnings metric, was $1,314 million, or $2.11 per share, compared with $1,179 million, or $1.92 per share, in the year-earlier quarter. Total AUM reached $1.05 trillion, up 25% year over year, supported by $60 billion of gross inflows in the quarter and $298 billion over the last twelve months. Gross capital deployment was $111 billion and origination was $74 billion. GAAP results were positive for the quarter, with net income attributable to common stockholders of $1,336 million, or $2.18 basic per share. Year-to-date GAAP results remain negative at $(594) million, or $(1.06) per share, because of a $1.7 billion one-time Bermuda tax charge recorded in the first quarter. Investors should weigh the non-GAAP figures against this volatility, since Retirement Services investment gains and losses and performance-fee timing caused large swings in reported GAAP income. Principal Investing Income was weak at $16 million, reflecting cyclically light realized performance fees of $130 million amid a slow exit environment. Capital returns continued, with a $0.5625 per-share dividend declared for the quarter, payable August 31, 2026. Apollo repurchased $102 million of stock in the quarter and has $3.03 billion remaining under its $4.0 billion program. Net Balance Sheet Value per share rose to $4.06 from $3.47. The main watch items are the Athene alternative portfolio, which earned a 9% return against management's 11% long-term expectation, and the continued reliance on realized performance fees and Athene's net spread, which declined to 1.14% from 1.22% a year earlier.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Financial Results (Jul 1, 2026)

The company anticipates alternative net investment income to be approximately $350 million on a pre-tax basis, representing an estimated annualized return of 9% on its alternative net investments. This disclosure provides investors with an early look at key performance metrics ahead of the official earnings release scheduled for August 4, 2026. Investors should note that these figures are preliminary and subject to change as final financial closing procedures are completed. The company explicitly cautions against relying solely on this information, as actual results could differ materially.

Apollo Global Management, Inc. Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Mar 31, 2026
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $(1,930) million, or $(3.27) per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a significant decrease from a net income of $418 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, in the prior year period. This downturn was largely driven by a substantial $(2,078) million in investment-related losses in the Retirement Services segment, primarily due to unfavorable fair value changes in mortgage loans, reinsurance assets, trading securities, and indexed annuity hedging derivatives, impacted by rising interest rates and equity market performance. Despite the net loss, the Asset Management segment showed robust growth, with management fees increasing by 37% and Fee Related Earnings (FRE) growing by 30.2% to $728 million, driven by higher AUM and strong performance across credit and equity strategies, including the acquisition of Bridge. The Retirement Services segment's net investment income increased by 18.4%, but this was overshadowed by significant investment-related losses. The company ended the quarter with total assets of $467.5 billion, an increase from $460.9 billion at the end of 2025, and maintained strong liquidity with $21.4 billion in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Financial Results (May 6, 2026)
Apollo Global Management (NYSE: APO) reported first-quarter 2026 results on May 6, 2026, with a GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders of $1.9 billion, or $(3.27) per share. The loss was driven by a one-time $1.7 billion income tax expense tied to the revocation of ACRA's election under Bermuda's Corporate Income Tax Act, which led to a full valuation allowance against Bermuda deferred tax assets. Management emphasized the underlying operating results: Fee-Related Earnings (FRE) reached a record $728 million (up 30% year-over-year), Spread-Related Earnings (SRE) were $719 million, and Adjusted Net Income (ANI), Apollo's primary non-GAAP metric, was $1.2 billion, or $1.94 per share. Total assets under management crossed the $1 trillion milestone, reaching $1.03 trillion (up 31% year-over-year), supported by record total inflows of $115 billion in the quarter and $300 billion over the last twelve months. Origination reached $71 billion in the quarter, and capital solutions fees hit a record $246 million. Note that quarterly SRE declined 11% year-over-year and 17% sequentially as alternative net investment income fell to $210 million, reflecting a 6% alternative return versus management's 11% long-term expectation; the quarter's Athene spread was 0.97%, down from 1.20% in 4Q'25. On capital returns, the board declared a common dividend of $0.5625 per share payable May 29, 2026, and Apollo repurchased $866 million of stock in the quarter, including $792 million to offset dilution from equity plan issuances. Net balance sheet value per share fell to $3.47 from $4.48, largely reflecting the tax charge and higher debt of $6.3 billion at HoldCo. Investors should weigh the strong fee-based growth against the one-time tax hit and softer spread earnings.

Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Financial Results (Apr 1, 2026)
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) has released preliminary estimates for its alternative net investment income for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026. The company anticipates reporting approximately $205 million in pre-tax alternative net investment income, representing an estimated 6% annualized return on its alternative net investments. This disclosure, provided ahead of the official quarterly earnings release on May 6, 2026, offers an early look at performance drivers within its key subsidiary, Athene. The reported figures indicate that Athene's pooled investment vehicle, which houses a significant portion of its alternative assets, is estimated to have achieved an annualized return of approximately 7% for the quarter. This performance is notable given the challenging equity market environment, evidenced by a roughly (17)% annualized total return for the S&P 500 during the same period. Athene's other alternative investments, including retirement services platforms, contributed an estimated 3% annualized return, with its investment in Athora Holding Ltd. reflecting a valuation consistent with its year-end book value.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Material Agreement (Mar 30, 2026)
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) announced the issuance of $750 million in 5.700% Senior Notes due 2036. This debt offering, conducted via an underwritten public offering, aims to bolster the company's financial flexibility and strategically manage its capital structure. A significant portion of the proceeds is earmarked for the repayment of $500 million of its 4.400% Senior Notes due 2026, indicating a proactive approach to debt management and potentially optimizing interest expense. The company is leveraging an existing shelf registration statement for this issuance, streamlining the process. The new notes bear a semi-annual interest payment and mature in 2036, providing a long-term funding source. Investors in these new notes are essentially extending the duration of their credit exposure to Apollo Global Management, while the company itself is refinancing maturing debt with longer-term obligations and potentially locking in favorable interest rates for an extended period. This move suggests confidence in the company's future cash flow generation capabilities to service the new, longer-term debt.

The Compensation Committee has approved substantial restricted share unit (RSU) grants to Martin Kelly (CFO) valued at $10 million and Whitney Chatterjee (CLO) valued at $13.5 million. These grants are intended to recognize performance, ensure market competitiveness, and retain these critical executives during a period of company growth and transformation. The RSUs are subject to specific vesting conditions tied to the company's performance fee income and will not deliver shares until 2029. Furthermore, executive officers, including Scott Kleinman, have been offered the ability to defer settlement of equity awards, with Mr. Kleinman electing to defer portions of his 2021 RSU awards to 2029 and 2032. These compensation actions underscore a focus on long-term value creation and alignment with shareholder interests.

Apollo Global Management, Inc. Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2025
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) reported robust financial performance for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Total revenues grew to $22.19 billion, a 6.5% increase year-over-year, primarily driven by strong performance in both the Asset Management and Retirement Services segments. Asset Management saw a significant 23.3% rise in management fees, bolstered by the acquisition of Bridge and organic growth within its credit and equity strategies, contributing to Fee Related Earnings (FRE) growth. The Retirement Services segment, primarily Athene, delivered a substantial increase in net investment income, up 22.2%, due to growth in its investment portfolio and favorable interest rate environments for new deployments. This drove a 4.7% increase in Spread Related Earnings (SRE). However, Principal Investing Income (PII) experienced a decline of 15.9%, largely due to lower realized performance fees and a rise in principal investing compensation. Total assets grew to $449.54 billion, reflecting the company's expanding AUM and the impact of the Bridge acquisition. The company maintained a solid liquidity position with $21.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents across its operations.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Material Agreement (Nov 7, 2025)
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) has announced the successful closing of a public offering of senior notes, raising a total of $750 million. This issuance includes $400 million of 4.600% Senior Notes due 2031 and an additional $350 million of 5.150% Senior Notes due 2035. The proceeds from this offering are earmarked for general corporate purposes, indicating a strategic move to bolster the company's financial flexibility and operational capacity. The issuance was conducted under a previously established shelf registration statement and represents a material definitive agreement, as detailed in Item 1.01 of the 8-K filing. The new 2035 notes will be consolidated with the existing issuance, bringing the total outstanding principal for this series to $850 million. Investors should note that this is a debt financing transaction, increasing the company's leverage.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Financial Results (Nov 4, 2025)
Apollo Global Management (APO) reported third-quarter 2025 results that were strong on fee-based earnings and asset growth, though realized principal investing income remained soft. Adjusted Net Income (ANI), the company's primary non-GAAP earnings metric, rose about 20% year-over-year to $1.36 billion, or $2.17 per share, versus $1.85 per share in 3Q'24. GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders was $1.71 billion, or $2.82 per share, which includes investment gains and is more volatile than ANI. Fee Related Earnings (FRE) reached a record $652 million, up 23% year-over-year, supported by management fee growth of 22%, capital solutions fees up 33%, and higher fee-related performance fees. Spread Related Earnings (SRE) of $871 million was near record but grew only about 2% year-over-year, as net spread compressed to 1.24% from 1.44% and Athene's alternative investment return of 10% fell short of management's 11% long-term expectation. Assets under management reached $908 billion, up 24% year-over-year, with $82 billion of gross inflows in the quarter (including the Bridge Investment Group acquisition) and $219 billion over the last twelve months. Origination of $75 billion and gross capital deployment of $99 billion point to continued deal activity. Principal Investing Income was weak at $50 million, as realized performance fees of $201 million remained cyclically light, with management noting that monetization of flagship private equity and hybrid funds is being delayed in an uncertain exit environment. Management also returned capital, repurchasing $356 million of stock and declaring a $0.51 per share common dividend. For investors, the central takeaway is that Apollo's fee-related earnings engine is compounding at a high rate and now provides a larger share of total earnings, while the Retirement Services spread business is growing steadily but with margin pressure. Investor focus should remain on future realized performance fees, net spread trends at Athene as the company deploys capital into higher-cost liabilities, and whether the Bridge acquisition and dilution from share issuance continue to be accretive on a per-share basis.

This disclosure is made prior to the official release of its quarterly earnings and financial supplement on November 4, 2025. Investors should note that these figures are preliminary and have not been audited or reviewed by an independent auditor.

Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) has filed a Form 8-K to report the resignation of a director, Pauline Richards, from its Board of Directors, effective September 30, 2025. The filing explicitly states that Ms. Richards' departure was not due to any disagreement with the company's management or the Board.

The filing also includes legal opinions and consents related to the legality of these shares. This filing is primarily administrative, confirming the registration of these shares for resale and providing the necessary legal documentation. Investors should note that this event does not represent a new issuance of shares by the company, but rather the facilitation of resale for shares already held by these entities. The key takeaway for investors is the transparency provided regarding the potential availability of these shares in the market.

Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) has filed an 8-K to report the issuance of $500 million in 5.150% Senior Notes due 2035. These notes were issued through an underwritten public offering and are backed by an indenture with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The primary use of proceeds is for general corporate purposes, with a significant allocation designated for repaying outstanding senior secured notes and other debt of Bridge Investment Group Holdings Inc. following the consummation of APO's acquisition of Bridge Investment Group Holdings Inc. This debt issuance and its intended use signal a strategic move to finance a key acquisition and manage existing liabilities within the acquired entity. Investors should note that the issuance of these notes is part of Apollo's broader strategy, which includes the acquisition of Bridge Investment Group. The 5.150% interest rate represents the cost of this specific debt, and its long-term maturity (2035) indicates a commitment to deleveraging and financing growth over an extended period. The company has utilized a previously filed shelf registration statement and prospectus supplements to facilitate this offering, demonstrating established procedures for capital raising.

Apollo Global Management, Inc. Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2025
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) reported its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The company experienced a notable increase in total revenues driven by its Asset Management segment, which saw strong growth in management fees. However, total revenues for the six-month period declined due to a significant drop in investment-related gains (losses) within the Retirement Services segment, primarily attributed to unfavorable foreign exchange impacts and changes in hedging derivatives. The Retirement Services segment, operated by Athene, showed growth in net investment income, but faced higher costs due to increased interest expenses and policy and other operating expenses. The company's equity-based compensation expense, a significant operating cost, saw a slight increase in the quarter but a decrease year-over-year for the six-month period, influenced by the phasing out of certain one-time grants. Despite some headwinds, the company's overall segment income saw a substantial increase for both the three and six-month periods, driven by the robust performance of its Asset Management and Retirement Services segments.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Financial Results (Aug 5, 2025)
Apollo Global Management (NYSE: APO) reported second-quarter 2025 results on August 5, 2025, with GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders of $605 million ($1.00 per share), down from $828 million in 2Q'24, though the quarter's headline story is strong operating earnings. Adjusted Net Income (ANI), the firm's primary non-GAAP metric, reached $1.179 billion ($1.92 per share), up 17% year over year from $1.009 billion. Fee Related Earnings (FRE) hit a record $627 million (up 21.5%), and Spread Related Earnings (SRE) rose 16% to $821 million, together producing a record $1.448 billion of combined fee and spread earnings. Management attributed this to record management fees, record capital solutions fees of $216 million, and record quarterly organic inflows of $49 billion. Total assets under management reached $840 billion, up 21% year over year, with fee-generating AUM of $638 billion. Gross inflows were $61 billion in the quarter and $179 billion over the last twelve months, and origination hit a record $81 billion. Nearly 60% of total AUM and 75% of fee-generating AUM is perpetual capital, which supports the durability of fee streams. Athene's alternative investment portfolio returned 10% in the quarter, slightly below management's 11% long-term expectation, and GAAP results were affected by a $257 million impairment on an equity investment. Capital return remained active: the board declared a $0.51 quarterly common dividend payable August 29, 2025, and $0.8438 per share on the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock. Apollo repurchased more than $1.3 billion of common stock over the last twelve months, including $557 million of opportunistic buybacks, and noted a pending acquisition of Bridge Investment Group expected to close in the third quarter of 2025.

Apollo Global Management, Inc. Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Mar 31, 2025
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) reported its first quarter 2025 results, showcasing continued growth across its diversified business segments. Total revenues for the quarter were $5.55 billion, a decrease from the prior year's $7.04 billion, primarily due to a significant decline in investment-related gains (losses) in the Retirement Services segment, which swung from a gain of $1.68 billion to a loss of $828 million. Despite this, the Asset Management segment demonstrated resilience with revenues growing slightly to $1.05 billion, driven by higher management and advisory fees. The Retirement Services segment reported an increase in net investment income, reflecting growth in Athene's investment portfolio and higher interest rates. Net income attributable to Apollo Global Management, Inc. common stockholders decreased year-over-year to $418 million ($0.68 per diluted share) from $1.40 billion ($2.28 per diluted share) in Q1 2024. This decline was largely influenced by the aforementioned investment-related losses in the Retirement Services segment and higher operating expenses, particularly in compensation and benefits. However, Fee Related Earnings (FRE) from the Asset Management segment increased by 21.0% to $559 million, indicating strong fee-generating revenue growth and operational efficiency. The company's total AUM also saw robust growth, reaching $785.2 billion as of March 31, 2025, up from $751.0 billion at the end of 2024, signaling continued investor confidence and successful capital deployment.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Financial Results (May 2, 2025)
Apollo Global Management (NYSE: APO) reported first quarter 2025 results that were strong on recurring earnings but weak on GAAP net income. Fee Related Earnings (FRE) reached a record $559 million, up 21% year-over-year, or $0.91 per share, on 18% growth in management fees and about 200 basis points of FRE margin expansion. Spread Related Earnings (SRE) were $804 million, down 1.6% year-over-year as reported, though up 1.1% to $826 million excluding notable items. Adjusted Net Income (ANI), Apollo's primary non-GAAP earnings metric, was $1.119 billion, or $1.82 per share, up from $1.72 a year earlier. GAAP net income attributable to Apollo common stockholders fell sharply to $418 million ($0.68 per share) from $1.403 billion ($2.31 basic per share) in the prior-year quarter. Management attributes the gap largely to market-driven items, including investment losses and a $385 million market risk benefit remeasurement loss at Retirement Services, along with a $200 million non-operating charitable contribution tied to a donor-advised fund share issuance. Growth indicators were robust. Total assets under management (AUM) rose 17% year-over-year to $785 billion, and fee-generating AUM rose 18% to $595 billion. Gross organic inflows were a record $43 billion for the quarter and $157 billion over the last twelve months, with origination volume of $56 billion and gross capital deployment of $84 billion. Realized performance fees were $190 million, which management described as cyclically light because monetization from flagship private equity and hybrid funds remains delayed in a challenging exit environment. The Principal Investing segment contributed only $14 million in the quarter, and its compensation ratio was 86%. Apollo also declared a $0.51 per share common dividend payable May 30, 2025, and a $0.8438 per share dividend on its Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock payable July 31, 2025. Share repurchases totaled $722 million in the quarter, and the pending all-stock acquisition of Bridge Investment Group for approximately $1.5 billion is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025. For investors, the key takeaways are the durability of fee-based earnings and fundraising momentum, offset by volatility in GAAP results and in performance fee realizations. Net balance sheet value per share declined to $4.51 from $5.01 at year-end 2024, partly reflecting capital returned to shareholders and market-related movements. This document was furnished under Item 2.02 and is not deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Executive Changes (Apr 17, 2025)
On April 17, 2025, Apollo Global Management (NYSE: APO) announced a leadership and governance change at its Board. Jay Clayton, Chair and Lead Independent Director since March 2021, will resign from the Board effective April 21, 2025, to become Interim U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York on April 22, 2025. Gary Cohn, Vice Chairman of IBM and former Goldman Sachs President and COO, will succeed him as Lead Independent Director effective April 21, 2025. The Board also appointed CEO Marc Rowan as Chair, effective the same date, so the Chair and CEO roles are now combined under Rowan. The filing states that there are no changes to Rowan's employment agreement or existing compensation arrangements. For investors, the filing is primarily a governance update rather than a financial disclosure. No financial results, guidance, or transaction terms are reported. The Board states that it will remain two-thirds independent after the changes. Cohn is designated independent under NYSE listing standards and will chair both the Executive Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, giving him significant influence over board oversight. Cohn's compensation is in line with other non-employee directors, plus an additional $100,000 annual Lead Independent Director fee and an annual RSU grant valued at $250,000. The main considerations are governance-related. Combining the CEO and Chair roles is a concentration of power that some investors may scrutinize, although the Board is positioning the Lead Independent Director role, with its added responsibilities, as a counterbalance. Investors may also weigh the company's continued emphasis on governance, the strength of Cohn's public-policy and financial-markets background, and the operational transition at the board level. The 8-K contains no quantitative financial impact.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Financial Results (Apr 2, 2025)
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) has filed a Current Report (8-K) on April 2, 2025, providing preliminary estimates for its alternative net investment income for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

This disclosure offers investors an early look at a key performance indicator ahead of the official quarterly earnings release on May 2, 2025. Key components of this income include an estimated 10% annualized return from Athene's investment in a pooled investment vehicle housing the majority of its alternatives portfolio, and an estimated 6% annualized return from other Athene alternative investments, including retirement services platforms. While these preliminary figures provide valuable insights into Apollo's performance drivers, investors are cautioned that these are unaudited estimates and actual results could differ materially.

The Company has initiated a search for a permanent replacement. Investors should note that Mr. Kelly's compensation will remain unchanged during this interim period. While this marks a change in a critical accounting role, the interim solution and the company's ongoing search for a replacement aim to ensure operational continuity.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. Annual Report, Year Ended Dec 31, 2024
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) reported strong performance for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, with total revenues reaching $26.1 billion, a decrease of 20.0% from the prior year, primarily driven by a significant drop in premiums within its Retirement Services segment. However, the Asset Management segment demonstrated robust growth, with revenues increasing by 19.1% to $4.2 billion, fueled by higher management fees, advisory and transaction fees, and investment income. Fee Related Earnings (FRE) for the Asset Management segment saw a healthy increase of 16.7% to $2.1 billion. The Retirement Services segment's net investment income rose by 30.1% to $15.7 billion, supporting a 3.7% increase in Spread Related Earnings (SRE) to $3.2 billion, despite higher costs of funds. Principal Investing Income (PII) more than doubled, reaching $271 million, driven by a substantial increase in realized performance fees. The company's total assets grew to $377.9 billion, supported by strong capital deployment and growth across its platforms. Apollo also declared a quarterly common stock dividend of $0.4625 per share, signaling confidence in its ongoing financial performance and commitment to shareholder returns.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Regulation FD Disclosure (Feb 13, 2025)

Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Financial Results (Feb 4, 2025)
Apollo Global Management (NYSE: APO) reported strong fourth-quarter and full-year 2024 results on February 4, 2025, anchored by record fee-related earnings (FRE) and spread-related earnings (SRE). Fourth-quarter GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders was $1.46 billion ($2.42 per share), and full-year GAAP net income was $4.48 billion ($7.39 per share). The company's primary non-GAAP earnings metric, Adjusted Net Income (ANI), was $1.36 billion ($2.22 per share) in the quarter and $4.57 billion ($7.43 per share) for the year, up from $4.08 billion in 2023. Management highlighted record FRE of $2.06 billion for 2024 (up 16.7%), SRE of $3.22 billion (up 3.7%, or 6.9% excluding notable items), and principal investing income of $271 million, which rose sharply on realized performance fees. Growth indicators were robust. Total assets under management reached $751 billion, up 15% year over year, supported by $152 billion of 2024 inflows and record origination of $222 billion. Fee-generating AUM grew to $569 billion. Capital solutions fees rose 24% to a record $668 million, and management fees rose 12%. Management also flagged that fee-related expenses grew only 14%, the slowest pace in five years, which supported roughly 60 basis points of FRE margin expansion. Capital returns were significant: Apollo repurchased $1.2 billion of common stock in 2024 and paid more than $1 billion in common dividends, and it plans to raise the annual common dividend 10% to $2.04 per share starting with the first-quarter 2025 payment. Investors should note several caveats. Retirement Services net spread compressed to 1.37% in the fourth quarter from 1.44% in the third quarter, and full-year net spread fell to 1.38% from 1.49%, reflecting higher cost of funds on new business. The 2024 alternative investment return of 8.0% was below management's 11% long-term expectation, and the fourth quarter's Athene GAAP investment results were negative. Principal investing income is inherently volatile and depends on monetization timing. The company also remains highly leveraged at the Athene level, with the consolidated balance sheet reflecting substantial insurance liabilities. These results are unaudited, and the filing itself is furnished rather than filed under the Exchange Act.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. 8-K Report, Executive Changes (Jan 31, 2025)
Apollo Global Management, Inc. (APO) has filed an 8-K detailing significant updates concerning executive compensation, corporate governance, and philanthropic initiatives. A key development is the renewal of CEO Marc Rowan's employment agreement for the next five years. While his base salary remains nominal at $100,000 annually, the agreement introduces a performance-based incentive tied to a percentage of performance fee income from managed funds, with a target annual value of $10 million, subject to one-year vesting. Mr. Rowan has elected to defer the initial payout for three years, signaling a strong commitment to long-term alignment with the company. In addition to executive matters, APO is significantly enhancing its philanthropic efforts by establishing a new donor-advised fund with an initial contribution of $200 million, which Mr. Rowan will help guide over the next five years. This builds upon the previously announced $100 million commitment to the Apollo Opportunity Foundation. The company also announced an increase in its Board size to seventeen directors and the appointment of Brian Leach as an independent director, who brings significant financial expertise and will serve on the Audit Committee.

The board approved the appointment on January 9, 2025, effective immediately. Zelter gives up his Co-President title at Apollo Asset Management (AAM) but remains on the AGM Board, and there are no changes to his employment agreement or compensation arrangements. Alongside this, John Zito, head of Apollo's credit business, was named Co-President of AAM alongside Scott Kleinman. Kleinman and Zito will oversee all investing activity and day-to-day management of the asset management business, and Zito keeps his role as Head of Credit. CEO Marc Rowan is finalizing a five-year extension of his employment agreement, according to the press release, though the filing itself does not include the terms of that extension. Chair Jay Clayton framed the changes as shareholder-aligned succession that positions a next generation of leaders to execute the five-year plan. For investors, the filing is primarily a governance and management-continuity event rather than a financial one; it contains no financial results, guidance, or quantified impact. The key items to monitor are the finalized terms of Rowan's extension, whether the new leadership structure changes strategy or execution across the asset management and Athene retirement services businesses, and how the company delivers against its five-year targets. The release cites roughly $733 billion of assets under management as of September 30, 2024.
