Exhibit 99.1
Blackstone Reports First Quarter 2020 Results
New York, April 23, 2020: Blackstone (NYSE:BX) today reported its first quarter 2020 results.
Stephen A. Schwarzman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Blackstone’s first-quarter financial results reflect the unprecedented market and global economic conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the extremely challenging environment, we continued to generate significant cash flow for our shareholders, distributing over $700 million through dividends and share repurchases in the quarter, and $3.2 billion over the last twelve months. Throughout our firm’s 35-year history, we have weathered many difficult periods - including the global financial crisis - only to emerge stronger than before. Our experience has shown that although asset values may be temporarily marked down, strong assets ultimately recover.”
Mr. Schwarzman continued, “We entered this crisis in a position of great strength, having recently completed a two-year fundraising cycle of nearly $250 billion. With ample capital reserves, long-term fund structures, and over $150 billion of dry powder capital – more than anyone in our industry – we are uniquely positioned to invest on behalf of our clients at a time of historic dislocation.”
Blackstone issued a full detailed presentation of its first quarter 2020 results, which can be viewed at www.blackstone.com.
Dividend
Blackstone has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.39 per share to record holders of Class A common stock at the close of business on May 4, 2020. This dividend will be paid on May 11, 2020.

Blackstone | 21 n/m Not meaningful generally due to the limited time since initial investment. n/a Not applicable. (a) Excludes investment vehicles where Blackstone does not earn fees.
(b) Available Capital represents total investable capital commitments, including side-by-side, adjusted for certain expenses
and expired or recallable capital and may include
leverage, less invested capital. This amount is not reduced by outstanding commitments to investments. (c) Multiple of Invested Capital (“MOIC”) represents carrying value, before management fees, expenses and Performance
Revenues, divided by invested capital.
(d) Net Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”) represents the annualized inception to March 31, 2020 IRR on total invested capital
based on
realized proceeds
and unrealized value, as applicable, after management fees, expenses and
Performance Revenues. IRRs are calculated using actual timing of limited partner cash flows. Initial inception date cash flow may differ from the Investment Period Beginning Date.
(e) The 8% Realized Net IRR and 8% Total Net IRR exclude investors that opted out of the Hilton investment opportunity. Overall
BREP International II
performance reflects a 7% Realized Net IRR and a 7% Total Net
IRR. (f)
BREP Co-Investment represents co-investment capital raised for
various BREP investments. The Net IRR reflected is calculated by aggregating each co-investment’s realized proceeds and unrealized value, as applicable, after management fees, expenses and Performance
Revenues. (g)
BPP represents the core+ real estate funds which invest with a more
modest risk profile and lower leverage. Committed Capital and Available Capital are not regularly reported to investors in our Core+ strategy and are not applicable in the context of these
funds. (h)
Unrealized Investment Value reflects BREIT’s net asset value as of
March 31, 2020. Realized Investment Value represents BREIT’s cash distributions, net of servicing fees. BREIT net return reflects a per share blended return, assuming BREIT had a single
share class, reinvestment of
all dividends received during the period, and no upfront selling
commission, net of all fees and expenses incurred by BREIT. These returns are not representative of the returns experienced by any particular investor or share class. Inception to date net returns are
presented on an annualized
basis and are from January 1, 2017. Committed Capital and Available
Capital are not regularly reported to investors in our Core+ strategy and are not applicable in the context of this vehicle. (i) BREDS High-Yield represents the flagship real estate debt drawdown funds only and excludes BREDS High-Grade.
(j) Blackstone Core Equity Partners is a core private equity fund which invests with a more modest risk profile and longer hold
period. (k)
Realizations are treated as return of capital until fully recovered and
therefore unrealized and realized MOICs are not meaningful. If information is not available on a timely basis, returns are calculated from results that are reported on a three month lag and therefore do
not include the impact of economic activities in the
current quarter. (l)
Funds presented represent the flagship credit drawdown funds only. The
Total Credit Net IRR is the combined IRR of the credit
drawdown funds
presented.
The returns presented herein represent those of the applicable Blackstone
Funds and not those of The Blackstone Group Inc. INVESTMENT

Blackstone | 26 Note: See pages 34-35, Definitions and Dividend Policy. (a) This adjustment removes Transaction-Related Charges, which are excluded from Blackstone’s segment presentation.
Transaction-Related Charges arise from corporate
actions including acquisitions, divestitures, and Blackstone’s initial public offering. They consist primarily of equity-based compensation charges, gains and losses on contingent consideration arrangements, changes in the balance of the Tax Receivable Agreement
resulting from a change in tax law or similar event,
transaction costs and any gains or losses associated with these corporate actions. (b) This adjustment removes the amortization of transaction-related intangibles, which are excluded from Blackstone’s segment
presentation. This amount includes amortization of
intangibles associated with Blackstone’s investment in Pátria, which is accounted for under the equity method. (c) This adjustment reverses the effect of consolidating Blackstone Funds, which are excluded from Blackstone’s segment
presentation. This adjustment includes the elimination of
Blackstone’s interest in these funds and the removal of amounts associated with the ownership of Blackstone consolidated operating partnerships held by non-controlling interests. (d) This adjustment removes Unrealized Performance Revenues on a segment basis. The Segment Adjustment represents the add back
of performance
revenues earned from consolidated Blackstone Funds which have been
eliminated in consolidation. QTD

Blackstone | 32 NOTES Notes to page 1 - Blackstone’s First Quarter 2020 GAAP Results Effective July 1, 2019, The Blackstone Group L.P. converted from a Delaware limited partnership to a Delaware corporation, The
Blackstone Group Inc. (the “Conversion”). This
presentation includes results for The Blackstone Group L.P. prior to the Conversion. As of any time prior to the Conversion, references to “Blackstone,” “the Company,” “our” and similar terms mean The
Blackstone Group L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries
and, as of any time after the Conversion, The Blackstone Group Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. All references to shares or per share amounts prior to the Conversion refer to units or per unit amounts. Unless otherwise noted,
references to “common stock” and “common
shares” refer to Class A common stock.
Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes Margin is calculated by dividing Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes by Total Revenues. Notes to page 2 - Blackstone’s First Quarter 2020 Highlights The changes in carrying value, fund returns and composite returns presented throughout this presentation represent those of the
applicable Blackstone Funds and not those of Blackstone.
See Notes to page 18 regarding Net Accrued Performance
Revenue redefinition. Notes
to page 5 - Investment Performance and Net Accrued Performance Revenues Effective 1Q’20, the Credit segment was renamed Credit & Insurance; however, there was no change to the composition of
the segment or historical results.
Effective 1Q’20, Core+ appreciation was updated to include BREIT
and represents a weighted average of BREIT’s per share appreciation and BPP appreciation for the period. The returns are weighted based on the average of BREIT’s monthly net asset values and the
average of BPP’s quarterly
adjusted
beginning
period
market
values
for the period. This presentation provides a more holistic view of Core+ by including BREIT performance. Core+ excluding BREIT appreciation was (2.4)% and 3.4% for 1Q’20 and 1Q’20 LTM, respectively.
Effective 1Q’20, Corporate Private Equity appreciation was updated
to include Core Private Equity appreciation. This
presentation provides a more holistic view of Corporate
Private Equity by including Core Private Equity performance. Corporate Private Equity appreciation excluding Core Private Equity was (23.4)% and (19.9)% for 1Q’20 and 1Q’20 LTM, respectively.
Results
for the Secondaries business (also referred to as Strategic Partners) are reported on a three month lag from the Secondaries’ fund financial statements, which generally report based on a three month lag from the underlying fund investments unless information is
available on a more timely basis. As a result, the
appreciation presented herein does not include the impact of economic and market activity in the current quarter. Current market activity is expected to affect reported results in upcoming quarters.
The BPS Composite gross and net returns
are based on the BAAM Principal Solutions (“BPS”) Composite, which does not include BAAM’s
individual
investor solutions (liquid alternatives), strategic capital (seeding and
minority interests), strategic opportunities (co-invests), and advisory (non- discretionary) platforms, except for investments by BPS funds directly into those platforms. BAAM-managed funds in liquidation
and non fee- paying
assets
(net returns only) are also excluded. The funds/accounts that comprise the BPS Composite are not managed within a single fund or account and are managed with different mandates. There is no guarantee that BAAM would have made the same mix of investments in a
stand- alone fund/account. The BPS Composite is not an
investible product and, as such, the performance of the BPS Composite does not represent the performance of an actual fund or account. |
Blackstone | 33 Notes to page 5 - Investment Performance and Net Accrued Performance Revenues (Cont’d) Effective 1Q’20, Credit returns are presented as a composite return instead of separate returns for performing credit and
distressed. The Credit Composite
now also includes the long only strategy. The Credit Composite return is a weighted average of (a) the return based on the combined quarterly cash flows of performing credit and distressed fee-earning funds and (b) the weighted average quarterly return of all long
only strategy fee-earning funds.
Only fee-earning funds exceeding $100 million of fair value at the beginning of each respective quarter- end are included and funds in liquidation are excluded. Credit returns exclude Blackstone Funds that were contributed to GSO as part of
Blackstone’s acquisition of GSO in
March 2008. Performing Credit gross returns were (16.7)% and (11.2)% for 1Q’20 and 1Q’20 LTM, respectively. Performing Credit net returns were (14.1)% and (10.5)% for 1Q’20 and 1Q’20 LTM, respectively. Distressed gross returns were (31.8)% and (36.2)% for 1Q’20 and 1Q’20 LTM, respectively. Distressed net returns were (30.3)% and (35.3)% for 1Q’20 and 1Q’20 LTM, respectively.
Notes to page 18 – Net Accrued Performance Revenues – Additional Detail Effective 1Q’20, NAPR has been redefined to exclude Performance Revenues realized but not yet distributed as of the reporting date. This update aligns the presentation of DE and NAPR. All prior periods have been recast to reflect this definition.
Per Share calculations are based on end of period DE Shares Outstanding
(see page 23, Share Summary). Notes
to page 22 – Shareholder Dividends DE before Certain Payables represents Distributable Earnings before the deduction for the Payable Under Tax Receivable Agreement and tax expense (benefit) of wholly owned subsidiaries. Per Share calculations are based on end of period Participating Common Shares (page 23, Share Summary); actual dividends are paid
to shareholders as of the applicable record date.
Retained capital is withheld pro rata from common and
Blackstone Holdings Partnership unitholders. Common shareholders’ share was $48 million for 1Q’20 and $244 million for 1Q’20 LTM. Common Shareholders receive tax benefits from deductions taken by Blackstone’s corporate tax paying subsidiaries and bear
responsibility for the deduction from Distributable
Earnings of the Payable Under Tax Receivable Agreement and certain other tax-related payables. Notes to page 23 – Share Summary Participating Common Shares and Participating Partnership Units include both issued and outstanding shares and unvested shares
that participate in dividends.
NOTES – (CONT’D) |
Blackstone | 34 DEFINITIONS AND DIVIDEND POLICY Blackstone discloses the following operating metrics and financial measures that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“non-GAAP”) in
this presentation: Segment
Distributable
Earnings, or “Segment
DE”, is Blackstone’s segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and assess performance across Blackstone’s four segments. Segment DE represents the net realized earnings of Blackstone’s segments
and is the sum of Fee Related Earnings and Net
Realizations for each segment. Blackstone’s segments are presented on a basis that deconsolidates Blackstone Funds, eliminates non-controlling ownership interests in Blackstone’s consolidated Operating Partnerships, removes the
amortization of intangible assets and removes
Transaction-Related Charges. Segment DE excludes unrealized activity and is derived from and reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes.
– Net Realizations is presented on a segment basis and is the sum of Realized Principal Investment Income and Realized Performance Revenues (which refers to Realized Performance Revenues excluding Fee Related Performance Revenues), less Realized Performance Compensation
(which refers to Realized Performance Compensation
excluding Fee Related Performance Compensation and Equity-Based Performance Compensation). – Total Segment Revenues and Segment Revenues represent Net Management and Advisory Fees, Fee Related Performance Revenues, Realized Performance Revenues and Realized Principal Investment Income. Distributable Earnings, or “DE”, is derived from Blackstone’s segment reported results. DE is used to assess performance and amounts available
for dividends to Blackstone shareholders, including
Blackstone personnel and others who are limited partners of the Blackstone Holdings Partnerships. DE is the sum of Segment DE plus Net Interest Income (Loss) less Taxes and Related Payables. DE excludes unrealized
activity and is derived from and reconciled to, but not
equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes. – Net Interest Income (Loss) is presented on a segment basis and is equal to Interest and Dividend Revenue less Interest Expense, adjusted for
the impact of consolidation of Blackstone Funds, and interest expense
associated with the Tax Receivable Agreement.
– Taxes and Related Payables represent the total GAAP tax provision adjusted to include only the current tax provision (benefit) calculated on
Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes excluding the tax
impact of any divestitures and including the Payable under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Fee Related Earnings, or “FRE”, is a performance measure used to assess Blackstone’s ability to generate profits from revenues that are
measured
and received on a recurring basis and not subject to future realization events. FRE equals management and advisory fees (net of management fee reductions and offsets) plus Fee Related Performance Revenues, less (a) Fee Related Compensation on a segment
basis, and (b)
Other Operating Expenses. FRE is derived from and reconciled to, but not
equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes. – Fee Related Compensation is presented on a segment basis and refers to the compensation expense, excluding Equity-Based Compensation,
directly related to (a) Management and Advisory Fees, Net and (b) Fee
Related Performance Revenues, referred to as Fee Related
Performance Compensation.
– Fee Related Performance Revenues refers to the realized portion of Performance Revenues from Perpetual Capital that are (a) measured
and received on a recurring basis, and (b) not dependent on realization
events from the underlying investments. |
Blackstone | 35 – Perpetual Capital refers to the component of assets under management with an indefinite term, that is not in liquidation, and for which
there
is no requirement to return capital to investors through redemption requests in the ordinary course of business, except where funded by new capital inflows. Includes co-investment capital with an investor right to convert into Perpetual Capital.
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes and Depreciation and Amortization, or “Adjusted
EBITDA”, is a supplemental measure used to assess performance derived from Blackstone’s segment results and may be used to assess its ability to service its borrowings. Adjusted EBITDA represents Distributable Earnings plus the addition of (a) Interest Expense on a segment basis, (b) Taxes and Related Payables,
and (c)
Depreciation and Amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is derived from and
reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes. Performance Revenues collectively refers to: (a) Incentive Fees, and (b) Performance Allocations.
Performance Compensation
collectively refers to: (a) Incentive Fee Compensation, and (b)
Performance Allocations Compensation. Transaction-Related
Charges arise from corporate actions including
acquisitions, divestitures, and Blackstone’s initial public offering. They consist primarily of equity-based compensation charges, gains and losses on contingent consideration arrangements, changes in
the balance of the Tax Receivable Agreement resulting from
a change in tax law or similar event, transaction costs and any gains or losses associated with these corporate actions. Dividend Policy. Blackstone’s intention is to pay to holders of Class A common stock a quarterly dividend representing
approximately 85% of The Blackstone
Group Inc.’s share of Distributable Earnings, subject to adjustment by amounts determined by Blackstone’s board of directors to be necessary or appropriate to provide for the conduct of its business, to make appropriate investments in its business and funds, to
comply with applicable law, any of its debt instruments or
other agreements, or to provide for future cash requirements such as tax-related payments, clawback obligations and dividends to shareholders for any ensuing quarter. The dividend amount could also be adjusted upward in any one
quarter. All of the foregoing is subject to the
qualification that the declaration and payment of any dividends are at the sole discretion of Blackstone’s board of directors and our board of directors may change our dividend policy at any time, including, without limitation, to eliminate such
dividends entirely. DEFINITIONS AND DIVIDEND POLICY –
