Summary

Summary of the 8-K filed May 23, 2025. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.

KKR & Co. Inc. (KKR) has announced its intention to issue and sell $550,000,000a aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Subordinated Notes due 2065.

This offering, expected to close on May 28, 2025, is a strategic move to raise capital. The Notes are guaranteed on a subordinated unsecured basis by KKR Group Partnership L.P. The underwriters also have a 30-day option to purchase an additional $82,500,000b in Notes to cover potential over-allotments, which could bring the total offering size up to $632,500,000.

This debt issuance is being conducted under a previously filed registration statement, indicating a standard capital-raising activity for the company. Investors considering these Notes should note the subordinated and unsecured nature of the guarantee, which implies a higher risk profile compared to senior secured debt. The fixed coupon rate of 6.875%c provides a predictable income stream, but the long maturity of 2065 means investors are locking in this rate for an extended period.
