Summary
This Form 8-K filing by KKR & Co. L.P. on August 9, 2010, primarily serves to furnish a press release announcing the company's financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010. While the 8-K itself doesn't contain detailed financial figures, it directs investors to the attached press release (Exhibit 99.1) for this critical information. This means the substance of KKR's quarterly performance, including revenue, earnings, and potentially AUM updates, is found within that accompanying document. For investors, the key takeaway is that this filing acts as a notification and gateway to KKR's most recent operational and financial performance. The press release, though furnished and not formally 'filed' in the same manner as the 8-K, is the primary source of data for understanding KKR's business trajectory during the second quarter of 2010. Investors should consult Exhibit 99.1 for a comprehensive overview of KKR's financial results.
