Summary
KKR & Co. L.P. (KKR) filed a Form 8-K on October 26, 2012, to report its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012. The primary purpose of this filing was to furnish a press release that detailed the company's performance during the quarter. Investors should note that the information provided in this 8-K, including the press release, is considered 'furnished' rather than 'filed,' meaning it does not carry the same legal implications under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. While the 8-K itself does not contain the detailed financial figures, it serves as the official notification to the market that KKR has disseminated its quarterly earnings. Investors seeking specific financial metrics, such as revenue, net income, assets under management, or fee-related earnings, would need to refer to the actual press release (Exhibit 99.1) which is attached to this filing and contains the granular details of KKR's Q3 2012 performance.
