In this report, references to "BAM", the "Company", "we", "us", or "our" refer to Brookfield Asset Management Ltd.
Business Overview
We are a leading global alternative asset manager, headquartered in New York, NY, with over $1 trillion of Assets Under Management across renewable power and transition, infrastructure, private equity, real estate, and credit. Our objective is to generate attractive, long-term risk-adjusted returns for the benefit of our clients and shareholders.
We manage a range of public and private investment products and services for institutional and retail clients. We earn asset management income for doing so and ensure strong alignment of interests with our clients by investing Brookfield capital alongside them. Our access to large-scale capital enables us to make investments in sizeable, premier assets and businesses across geographies and asset classes that we believe few others can.
To do this, we leverage our team of over 2,500 investment and asset management professionals, our global reach, deep operating expertise, and access to large-scale capital to identify attractive investment opportunities and invest on a proprietary basis. Our investment approach and strong track record have been the foundation and driver of our growth.
We provide a highly diversified suite of alternative investment strategies to our clients and are constantly seeking to innovate new strategies to meet their needs. We have over 55 unique active strategies that span a wide range of risk-adjusted returns, including opportunistic, value-add, core, super-core, and credit. We evaluate the performance of these product offerings and our investment strategies using a number of non-GAAP measures. BAM utilizes Fee-Bearing Capital, Fee Revenues, Fee-Related Earnings and Distributable Earnings to assess the performance of our asset management business.
We are in a fortunate position to be trusted with our clients' capital and our objective is to meet their financial goals and provide for a better financial future while providing market leading experience. Our team of over 300 client service professionals across 19 global offices are dedicated to ensuring that the business exceeds our clients' service expectations.

Our guiding principle is to operate our business and conduct our relationships with the highest level of integrity. Our emphasis on a culture of collaboration allows us to attract and retain top talent.
The Class A Shares are co-listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") under the symbol "BAM".
Development of the Business
On February 4, 2025 BAM completed a corporate arrangement with Brookfield Corporation ("BN"), whereby BN transferred its approximately 73% interest in Brookfield Asset Management ULC ("Asset Management Company") to BAM in exchange for newly issued class A shares of BAM on a one-for-one basis (the "2025 Arrangement"). See discussion of the accounting for the 2025 Arrangement in Note 3 of the condensed consolidated financial statements of BAM included in Part I.
The financial statements of BAM for the periods prior to the closing date of the 2025 Arrangement reflect historical financial information of Brookfield Asset Management ULC, the accounting acquirer, as the "Predecessor" entity. For the periods thereafter, the financial statements reflect the financial position and results of the combined entity.
After giving effect to the 2025 Arrangement, BAM owns 100% of Brookfield Asset Management ULC, and BN owns approximately 73% of the Class A Shares of BAM.
Business Environment
Our asset management business is affected by the financial market and economic conditions in the various countries and regions in which we operate. Price fluctuations within equity, credit, interest rates and foreign exchange markets can be volatile and mixed across the various geographies, which can have a substantial impact on the performance of our business in various ways.
In terms of economic conditions in the U.S., real gross domestic product ("GDP") is estimated to have grown by 2.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to a contraction of 0.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. U.S. inflation eased in the second quarter of 2025 with estimates reporting that the annual U.S. inflation rate increased to 2.7% as of June 30, 2025, compared to 2.4% as of March 31, 2025. The U.S. unemployment rate has dropped to 4.1% in June 2025, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. As of July 2025, the International Monetary Fund estimated that the U.S. economy will slow to 1.9% in 2025 and 2.0% in 2026 from 2.8% in 2024, on account of greater policy uncertainty, trade tensions, and softer demand momentum.
The U.S. Federal Reserve finished the second quarter of 2025 with a benchmark interest rate target range of 4.25% to 4.50%, unchanged from the previous quarter ending March 31, 2025. The Federal Reserve's latest economic projections reveal expectations of slower growth and higher core inflation by the end of 2025. This partially reflects the expected impact of U.S. tariffs and consequential retaliation. During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the 10-year government bond yields rose 0.5% in the United States.
Outside the U.S., GDP growth in the Eurozone is estimated to have increased by 0.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, while inflation is expected to be below the European Central Bank's 2% target at 1.7%. The short-term benchmark interest rate set by the European Central Bank was 2.15% as of June 30, 2025, down from 2.65% as of March 31, 2025.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the S&P 500 was up by 10.6%, the MSCI Europe Index was up by 1.0%, the MSCI Asia Index was up by 11.7%, and the MSCI World Index was up by 11.0%. During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, U.S. investment grade corporate bond spreads (BofA US Corporate Bond Index) tightened by 9 basis points, and the high yield credit spreads were down by 59 basis points.
Our business remains well-positioned within the alternative asset management landscape by leveraging a strategic and agile approach to investment opportunities. As investors seek diversification and innovative solutions, we are equipped to navigate market complexities and evolving government policies, by delivering value through disciplined strategies. Our ability to adapt to shifting economic conditions and capitalize on emerging trends ensures we remain a trusted partner in achieving long-term financial outcomes.

BAM primarily generates revenue from fees earned pursuant to contractual arrangements with funds, publicly traded vehicles, and investors, as well as transaction and advisory fees. These fees include base management fees, incentive fees, and certain advisory fees. Base management fees are long-term, recurring in nature, and correspond to fundraising activity, net asset values of certain of our funds, and market capitalizations of our publicly traded vehicles, specifically BIP, BEP and BBU. Incentive fees are performance fees earned from BIP and BEP for exceeding predetermined distribution thresholds, are long-term, and are not subject to clawback.
BAM is entitled to carried interest assuming certain investment returns are achieved, as well as incentive management fees in certain of our structures where we are entitled to contractual fees from an investment fund based on achieving prescribed investment returns.
The composition of our revenues will vary based on market conditions and the cyclical nature of our businesses. Carried interest allocations generated by our funds and associated carried interest compensation are driven by the performance of the underlying investments, as well as overall market conditions. Fair values are affected by changes in the fundamentals of our investments, the industries in which they operate, the overall economy, and other market conditions. The impact of fair values of our underlying investments throughout market cycles may result in material increases or decreases to carried interest generated, net of expenses.
Expenses primarily include employee base compensation, bonuses, and share-based compensation. Period over period changes in employee base compensation and bonuses generally result from changes in headcount and annual salary changes. Share-based awards are granted in the first quarter of each year and generally vest over 5 years. Equity settled compensation awards vest on a graded basis over the vesting period and cash settled share-based compensation awards are recorded at fair value quarterly based on the trading price of BAM Class A Shares. Therefore, for cash settled share-based compensation, an increase or decrease in the share price of BAM will result in share-based compensation expense or recovery.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $584 million, of which $620 million was attributable to common stockholders. This compares to net income of $518 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, of which $495 million was attributable to common stockholders.
Revenues
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were $1.1 billion, which represents an increase of $174 million or 19% compared to $916 million of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Base Management and Advisory Fees
Base management and advisory fees, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were $815 million, which represents an increase of $100 million or 14% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. Management fee revenues increased by $29 million from capital raised for our latest global transition fund, $17 million from capital raised for our latest real estate flagship fund, and $17 million from insurance capital inflows from BWS. In addition, management fees increased $16 million from an increase in the trading price of BIP and $13 million due to NAV increases of BPG.
Incentive Fees
Incentive fees for the three months ended June 30, 2025, were $116 million, an increase of $10 million or 9% from the three months ended June 30, 2024, driven by a 6% growth in BIP dividends of $6 million and 5% growth in BEP dividends of $4 million.
Carried Interest Allocations
Realized carried interest allocations were $nil for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and the three months ended June 30, 2024. Realized carried interest allocations on mature funds are attributed to BN through our redeemable preferred shares.
The unrealized carried interest allocation of $63 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 represents a net decrease of $118 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The gross decrease of $189 million compared to the prior period reflects lower relative valuations across mature real estate flagship funds and various private equity funds. This was partially offset by a gross increase of $71 million in unrealized carried interest driven by changes in fund valuations associated with our infrastructure flagship funds for $47 million and our global transition flagship funds for $24 million.
Carried interest allocations generated by new funds are 66.7% attributable to BAM and 33.3% to BN. Within the condensed consolidated statements of operations, carried interest allocations are presented on a 100% basis and the portion attributable to BN is presented in net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interest in consolidated entities. Unrealized carried interest allocations attributable to BAM was $94 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $54 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Interest and Dividend Revenue
Interest and dividend revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $34 million, which represents a decrease of $2 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was due to lower interest revenue earned on our deposit with BN.
Interest and Dividend Revenue of Consolidated Funds
Interest and dividend revenue of consolidated funds for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $8 million, which represents interest and dividends earned from investments held by certain funds in which BAM holds a sufficient interest to require the consolidation of the funds.
Other Revenues
Other revenues were $180 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $176 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. Other revenues are largely comprised of recoverables from BN related to share and performance-based compensation as defined by the Relationship Agreement, fund expense recharges, and incentive management fees earned on certain funds. Of the total increase, $103 million was due to a higher recoveries in share and performance-based compensation. Share-based and performance-based award expenses that are recoverable from BN are recognized in other revenues with the offsetting expense recognized in compensation and benefits, and carried interest allocation compensation, respectively. The increase was also driven by incremental recoveries of $44 million associated with carried interest compensation for legacy funds and an additional $33 million in recoveries of operating expenses from related parties.
Expenses
Total expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were $557 million, an increase of $224 million or 67% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Compensation and Benefits
Compensation and benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were $404 million, which represents an increase of $127 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. An increase of $103 million was attributable to higher share and performance-based compensation expense on our cash-settled awards due to an increase in the trading price of BAM Class A Shares during the period. The remaining increase is due to higher compensation costs from the ongoing growth of our business.
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses are comprised of professional fees, facilities costs, as well as costs directly associated with our fundraising and investment functions. Other operating expenses were broadly consistent with the prior period at $82 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $78 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Carried Interest Allocation Compensation
Compensation expenses related to carried interest allocation compensation were $16 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, which represents a change of $56 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. This was primarily driven by higher relative valuation gains across certain infrastructure and private equity funds compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The carried interest compensation expense associated with mature funds is fully recoverable from BN. Carried interest compensation expense on new funds during the period was $4 million.
Other (Expenses) Income, net
Other (expenses) income, net for the three months ended June 30, 2025 totaled $68 million compared to other income of $24 million in the prior period. This was driven by a mark-to-market decrease of $55 million compared to the prior period on our investment in BSREP III, and the remaining movement was due to mark-to-market movements on put and call options to acquire additional interests in Oaktree, Primary Wave, LCM and Castlelake.
Other Income, net of Consolidated Funds
Other income, net of consolidated funds for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $13 million compared to $nil in the prior period. This represents the underlying fair value changes of investments held by certain funds in which BAM holds a sufficient interest to require the consolidation of the funds.
Share of Income from Equity Method Investments
Our share of income from equity method investments was $181 million compared to $53 million in the prior period, an increase of $128 million. This is predominantly driven by higher earnings of $103 million from our investment in Oaktree due to carried interest earned on legacy funds, as well as $17 million earned from our investment in Castlelake which we acquired in September 2024.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $75 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, which represents a decrease of $67 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in income tax expense was predominantly a result of lower taxable income reported by our business compared to the prior period.
Net (Income) Loss Attributable to Preferred Share Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest
BAM recognizes carried interest income and associated carried interest allocation expense on mature funds within our condensed consolidated statements of operations on a gross basis. As the net carried interest generated on mature funds is attributable to BN, the net income or loss attributable to BN via the preferred shares primarily represents the change in carried interest, net of carried interest allocation expense and taxes on mature funds owing to BN.
Net loss attributable to preferred redeemable non-controlling interest was $99 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to lower valuations in certain mature real estate funds.
Net Income Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest of Consolidated Entities
Net income attributable to non-controlling interest of consolidated entities was $54 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. BAM recognizes carried interest income on new funds within our condensed consolidated statements of operations on a gross basis. On new funds, 33.3% of carried interest revenue is attributable to BN. This balance is primarily the carried interest generated on new funds that is attributable to BN and fluctuates depending on the carried interest generated on new funds during the period.
Net Income Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest of Consolidated Funds
For income earned by certain funds in which BAM holds a sufficient interest to require the consolidation of the funds, a portion of the income earned is attributable to other parties invested in the funds. Net income attributable to non-controlling interest of consolidated funds was $9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $1.1 billion, of which $1.2 billion was attributable to common stockholders. This compares to net income of $891 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, of which $936 million was attributable to common stockholders.
Revenues
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $2.2 billion, which represents an increase of $371 million or 21% compared to $1.8 billion of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Base Management and Advisory Fees
Base management and advisory fees for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $1.7 billion, which represents an increase of $257 million or 18% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. Management fee revenues increased by $100 million from capital raised for our latest real estate flagship fund, $45 million from capital raised for our latest global transition fund, and $50 million from insurance capital inflows from BWS. In addition, management fees increased $16 million from a higher trading price of BIP.
Incentive Fees
Incentive fees for the six months ended June 30, 2025, were $233 million, an increase of $21 million or 10% from the six months ended June 30, 2024, driven by a 6% growth in BIP dividends of $13 million and 5% growth in BEP dividends of $8 million.
Carried Interest Allocations
Realized carried interest allocations were $nil for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which represents a net decrease of $11 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. Realized carried interest allocations in the prior period were predominantly due to dispositions within our first real estate flagship fund and certain other real estate fund strategies. All realized carried interest income in the six months ended June 30, 2024, net of carried interest compensation related to mature funds and are attributable to BN through our redeemable preferred shares.
The unrealized carried interest allocations of $61 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 represents an increase of $18 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This was driven by a gross increase of $157 million in unrealized carried interest driven by changes in fund valuations across the latest vintages of our flagship funds. This was partially offset by a gross decrease of $150 million compared to the prior period reflecting lower relative valuations across various mature real estate flagship funds.
Carried interest allocations generated by new funds are 66.7% attributable to BAM and 33.3% to BN. Within the condensed consolidated statements of operations, carried interest allocations are presented on a 100% basis and the portion attributable to BN is presented in net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interest in consolidated entities. Unrealized carried interest allocations attributable to BAM were $180 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $75 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Interest and Dividend Revenue
Interest and dividend revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $47 million, which represents a decrease of $36 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was due to lower interest income earned on our deposit with BN.
Interest and Dividend Revenue of Consolidated Funds
Interest and dividend revenue of consolidated funds for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $15 million, which represents interest and dividends earned from investments held by certain funds in which BAM holds a sufficient interest to require the consolidation of the funds.
Other Revenues
Other revenues were $285 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $107 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. Other revenues are largely comprised of amounts recoverable from BN related to share and performance-based compensation as defined by the Relationship Agreement, fund expense recharges, and incentive management fees earned on certain funds. Of the total increase, a $38 million increase compared to the prior period was due to higher recoveries in share and performance-based compensation. Share-based and performance-based award expenses that are recoverable from BN are recognized in other revenues with the offsetting expense recognized in compensation and benefits, and carried interest allocation compensation, respectively. In addition, the increase was also driven by incremental recoveries of $85 million associated with carried interest compensation for legacy funds.
Expenses
Total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $1.1 billion, an increase of $278 million or 36% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Compensation and Benefits
Compensation and benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $663 million, which represents an increase of $111 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This was attributable to higher share-based compensation expense of $38 million on our share and performance-based awards due to an increase in the trading price of BAM Class A Shares during the period. The remaining increase is due to higher compensation costs from the ongoing growth of our business.
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses are comprised of professional fees, facilities costs, as well as costs directly associated with our fundraising and investment functions. Other operating expenses were broadly consistent with the prior period at $160 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $154 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Carried Interest Allocation Compensation
Compensation expenses related to carried interest allocation compensation were $162 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which represents a change of $118 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This was primarily driven by higher relative valuation gains across certain renewable, infrastructure, and private equity funds compared to the prior period. The carried interest compensation expense associated with mature funds is fully recoverable from BN. Carried interest compensation expense on new funds was $23 million during the period.
Other (Expenses) Income, net
Other (expenses) income, net for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $137 million compared to $48 million in the prior period. The increase was driven by a mark-to-market decrease of $76 million compared to the prior period on our investment in BSREP III, and the remaining movement was due to mark-to-market movements on put and call options to acquire additional interests in Oaktree, Primary Wave, LCM and Castlelake.
Other Income, net of Consolidated Funds
Other income, net of consolidated funds for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $27 million compared to $nil in the prior period. This represents the underlying fair value changes of investments held by certain funds in which BAM holds a sufficient interest to require the consolidation of the funds.
Share of Income from Equity Method Investments
Our share of income from equity method investments was $239 million compared to $133 million in the prior period, an increase of $106 million. This is predominantly driven by higher earnings of $30 million from our investment in Oaktree due to carried interest earned on legacy funds, $55 million earned from our investment in Castlelake which we acquired in September 2024, with the remainder earned from other equity method investments.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $150 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which represents a decrease of $63 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in income tax expense was predominantly a result of lower taxable income reported by our business compared to the prior period.
Net Loss Attributable to Preferred Share Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest
BAM recognizes carried interest income and associated carried interest allocation expense on mature funds within our condensed consolidated statements of operations on a gross basis. As the net carried interest generated on mature funds is attributable to BN, the net income or loss attributable to BN via the preferred shares primarily represents the change in carried interest, net of carried interest allocation expense and taxes on mature funds owing to BN.
Net loss attributable to preferred redeemable non-controlling interest was $226 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to lower valuations in certain mature real estate funds.
Net Income Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest of Consolidated Entities
Net income attributable to non-controlling interest of consolidated entities was $102 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. BAM recognizes carried interest income on new funds within our condensed consolidated statements of operations on a gross basis. On new funds, 33.3% of carried interest revenue is attributable to BN. This balance is primarily the carried interest generated on new funds that is attributable to BN and fluctuates depending on the carried interest generated on new funds during the period.
Net Income Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest of Consolidated Funds
For income earned by certain funds in which BAM holds a sufficient interest to require the consolidation of the funds, a portion of the income earned is attributable to other parties invested in the funds. Net income attributable to non-controlling interest of consolidated funds was $14 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Assets
Total assets were $16.1 billion as at June 30, 2025, an increase of $2.0 billion or 14% compared to December 31, 2024.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents were $480 million as at June 30, 2025, an increase of $76 million or 19% from December 31, 2024. This was largely driven by cash inflows of $750 million from BAM's inaugural debt offering which was completed in April 2025. The increase was partially offset by cash outflows of approximately $650 million due to investments made in Oaktree, Concora, and Primary Wave, as well as share buybacks during the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Accounts Receivable and Other, Net
Accounts receivable and other, net of $389 million primarily consists of receivables from third parties and prepaid expenses. The decrease of $94 million from December 31, 2024 was largely driven by the timing of collections.
Financial Assets
Financial assets of $290 million primarily consists of call options to acquire additional interests in Primary Wave and Castlelake in the future and financial instruments associated with various other investments. The increase of $59 million from December 31, 2024 was largely driven by mark-to-market valuation increases on certain call options.
Due from Affiliates
Due from affiliates of $3.5 billion primarily relates to management fees earned but not collected from our managed funds, receivables for expenses paid on behalf of certain of our funds, as well as reimbursements due from BN for long-term compensation awards. The movement of $1.0 billion from December 31, 2024 was primarily driven by receivables owing from BN associated with existing share-based compensation and carried interest compensation awards.
Investments
Investments are comprised of:
•An approximate 74% economic interest in Oaktree of $4.7 billion (2024 - $4.6 billion);
•Our approximately 15% limited partnership interest in BSREP III of $920 million (2024 - $1.0 billion);
•An economic interest in Castlelake of $758 million (2024 - $538 million);
•Accumulated unrealized carried interest in our mature and new funds of $600 million (2024 - $931 million) and $963 million
(2024 - $693 million), respectively;
(2024 - $693 million), respectively;
•An approximate 11% economic interest in Pretium of $311 million (2024 - $351 million);
•A 44% economic interest in PWMP Ventures LLCof $256 million (2024 - $147 million);
•A 49.9% economic interest in LC Financial Holdings Limited ("LCM") of $211 million (2024 - $186 million);
•Limited partner interests in funds of $110 million (2024 - $29 million) including Pinegrove Opportunity Partners I LP and Strategic Investors Fund XII Cayman; and
•Other investments totaling $0.7 billion.
The investment in BSREP III and carried interest generated on mature funds are fully attributable to BN through their preferred shares redeemable non-controlling interest and does not impact net income attributable to common stockholders.
During the period, investments increased by $374 million primarily due to Castlelake's acquisition of Concora, which comprised of a $116 million contribution to Castlelake and an $81 million direct investment. In addition, investments increased as a result of step-up investments in Oaktree and Primary Wave, as well as an increase in accumulated unrealized carried interest on new funds, partially offset by decreased accumulated unrealized carry on mature funds.
Investments of Consolidated Funds
Investments of consolidated funds represents investments held by certain funds in which BAM holds a sufficient interest to require the consolidation of the fund. Investments in these funds are measured at fair value. The increase of $493 million compared to December 31, 2024 was driven by additional investments made by certain consolidated funds.
Investments Held for Sale
Investments held for sale was $nil at June 30, 2025. The decrease of $242 million compared to December 31, 2024 was a result of BAM's disposition of its interest in Redwood Evergreen Fund LP for approximately $257 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Liabilities
Total liabilities were $5.1 billion as at June 30, 2025, an increase of $2.1 billion or 72% compared to December 31, 2024.
Accounts Payable and Other, Net
Accounts payable and other, net primarily consists of accrued bonus compensation, performance and cash-settled share-based compensation. The increase of $1.0 billion compared to December 31, 2024 reflects additional existing cash-settled awards recognized upon the completion of the 2025 Arrangement.
Financial Liabilities
Financial liabilities of $402 million primarily consists of contingent consideration associated with our investment in Castlelake and the mark-to-market of derivatives associated with put options on certain of our other investments. The increase of $174 million compared to December 31, 2024 reflects the change in value of the options during the period.
Due to Affiliates
Due to affiliates of $990 million reflects amount payable to related parties for share and cash-based compensation, as well as for services received in the normal course of business including operating expenses payable. The decrease of $102 million or 9% relative to December 31, 2024 was due to the elimination of certain amounts owing as a result of the 2025 Arrangement and payments on certain of our loans payable to related parties.
Corporate Borrowings
Corporate borrowings increased by $743 million as a result of BAM's $750 million inaugural debt offering completed during the period.
Borrowings of Consolidated Funds
Borrowings of consolidated funds represents borrowings used to finance investments within certain of our funds where BAM is required to consolidate the fund due to our economic interest. These increased borrowings of $256 million compared to December 31, 2024 was driven by borrowings made by consolidated funds to fund additional investments.
Preferred Shares Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest
BAM recognizes carried interest generated and associated carried interest allocation expense on mature funds within our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As the net carried interest generated on mature funds is all attributable to BN, this balance primarily represents the accumulated unrealized carried interest, net of carried interest allocation expense and taxes on mature funds owing to BN.
Preferred shares redeemable non-controlling interest was $1.9 billion as at June 30, 2025, a decrease of $244 million compared to $2.1 billion as at December 31, 2024. This movement was due to a decrease in unrealized carried interest on mature funds during the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Non-Controlling Interest in Consolidated Entities
Non-controlling interest in consolidated entities was $524 million as at June 30, 2025, an increase of $188 million compared to $336 million as at December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to a portion of carried interest generated across the latest vintages of our flagship funds that is owed to BN, non-controlling interests associated with our equity-settled share-based compensation and other non-controlling interests associated with various entities within BAM.
Non-Controlling Interest in Consolidated Funds
Non-controlling interest in consolidated funds was $177 million as at June 30, 2025. This represents the portion of funds BAM is required to consolidate that are owned by other parties.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Operating Activities
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company's operating activities, generated cash inflows of $529 million, compared to cash inflows of $393 million in the prior period. The increase in operating cash flows compared to the prior period was primarily due to higher cash generated from fee revenues, and net changes in working capital partially offset by investments in consolidated funds of $262 million.
Investing Activities
Net cash outflows from investing activities totaled $490 million, compared to outflows of $452 million in the prior period. Outflows are primarily due to investments of $522 million associated with our step-up in ownership of Oaktree, Primary Wave and participation in Castlelake's acquisition of Concora.
Financing Activities
Net cash inflows from financing activities totaled $108 million, compared to outflows of $603 million in the prior period. Cash inflows were driven by the net issuance of corporate borrowings for $515 million and borrowings related to consolidated funds partially offset by dividend distributions of $707 million. Dividend distributions have increased in the current period as a result of a 15% increase in dividend distributions compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Operating Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company's operating activities generated cash inflows of $643 million, compared to cash inflows of $909 million in the prior period. The decrease in operating cash flows compared to the prior period was primarily due to changes in investments of consolidated funds of $465 million partially offset by higher cash generated from fee revenues and net changes in working capital.
Investing Activities
Net cash outflows from investing activities totaled $255 million, compared to outflows of $458 million in the prior period. Outflows are primarily due to investments of $533 million associated with our step-up in ownership of Oaktree, Primary Wave and participation in Castlelake's acquisition of Concora, partially offset by the disposition of BAM's interest in Redwood Evergreen Fund LP for $237 million.
Financing Activities
Net cash outflows from financing activities totaled $314 million, compared to outflows of $1.2 billion in the prior period. Cash outflows were driven by dividend distributions of $1.4 billion partially offset by the issuance of corporate borrowings for $750 million and borrowings related to consolidated funds.

Key Financial and Operating Measures
BAM prepares its financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. This report discloses a number of non-GAAP financial and supplemental financial measures which are utilized in monitoring our business, including for performance measurement, capital allocation and valuation purposes. BAM believes that providing these performance measures is helpful to investors in assessing the overall performance of our business. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as the sole measure of BAM's performance and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, similar financial measures calculated in conformity with U.S. GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized financial measures and may not be comparable to similar financial measures used by other issuers. The financial results of BAM includes the asset management activities of Oaktree, an equity accounted affiliate, in its key financial and operating measures for our asset management business. See "Part I-Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures", in this report.
Non-GAAP Measures Utilized by BAM
Fee Revenues
Fee Revenues is a key metric analyzed by management to determine the growth in recurring cash flows from our business. Fee Revenues include base management fees, incentive distributions, performance fees and transaction fees. Fee Revenues exclude carried interest and revenues of consolidated funds, but include Fee Revenues earned by Oaktree. The most directly comparable measure of Fee Revenues disclosed in the financial statements is base management and advisory fees. See "Part I-Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures" for our reconciliation of Fee Revenues.
Fee-Related Earnings
Fee-Related Earnings is used to provide additional insight into the operating profitability of our asset management activities. Fee-Related Earnings are recurring in nature and not based on future realization events. Fee-Related Earnings is comprised of Fee Revenues less direct costs associated with earning those fees, which include employee compensation and professional fees as well as business related technology costs, and other shared services costs. Fee-Related Earnings exclude revenues and expenses of consolidated funds. The most directly comparable measure of Fee-Related Earnings disclosed in the primary financial statements is net income. See "Part I-Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures" for our reconciliation of Fee-Related Earnings.
Distributable Earnings
BAM intends to pay out approximately 90% of its Distributable Earnings to shareholders quarterly and reinvest the balance back into the business.
Distributable Earnings provides insight into earnings that are available for distribution or to be reinvested by BAM. It is calculated as the sum of its Fee-Related Earnings, realized carried interest, returns from our corporate cash and financial assets, interest expense, cash taxes, and general and administrative expenses excluding equity-based compensation expenses. The most directly comparable measure disclosed in the primary financial statements of our asset management business for Distributable Earnings is net income. See "Part I-Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures" for our reconciliation of Distributable Earnings.
Supplemental Financial Measures Utilized by BAM
Assets Under Management
AUM refers to the total fair value of assets managed, calculated as follows:
•Investments that Brookfield, which includes BN, BAM, or their affiliates, either:
◦Consolidates for accounting purposes (generally, investments in respect of which Brookfield has a significant economic interest and unilaterally directs day-to-day operating, investing and financing activities), or
◦Does not consolidate for accounting purposes but over which Brookfield has significant influence by virtue of one or more attributes (e.g., being the largest investor in the investment, having the largest representation on the investment's governance body, being the primary manager and/or operator of the investment, and/or having other significant influence attributes),
◦Are calculated at 100% of the total fair value of the investment taking into account its full capital structure - equity and debt - on a gross asset value basis, even if Brookfield does not own 100% of the investment, with the exception of
investments held through our perpetual funds, which are calculated at its proportionate economic share of the investment's net asset value.
•All other investments are calculated at Brookfield's proportionate economic share of the total fair value of the investment taking into account its full capital structure - equity and debt - on a gross asset value basis.
Our methodology for determining AUM differs from the methodology that is employed by other alternative asset managers as well as the methodology for calculating regulatory AUM that is prescribed for certain regulatory filings (e.g., Form ADV and Form PF).
Fee-Bearing Capital
Fee-Bearing Capital represents the capital committed, pledged, or invested in our perpetual affiliates, private funds and liquid strategies that we manage which entitles us to earn Fee Revenues. Fee-Bearing Capital includes both called ("invested") and uncalled ("pledged" or "committed") amounts.
When reconciling period amounts, we utilize the following definitions:
•Inflows include capital commitments and contributions to our private and liquid strategies funds, and capital issuances in our perpetual affiliates.
•Outflows represent distributions and redemptions of capital from liquid and perpetual capital.
•Distributions represent quarterly distributions from perpetual affiliates as well as returns of committed capital (excluding market valuation adjustments), redemptions and expiry of uncalled commitments within our private funds.
•Market valuation includes gains (losses) on portfolio investments, perpetual affiliates and liquid strategies based on market prices.
•Other includes changes in net non-recourse leverage included in the determination of the permanent capital vehicle capitalizations and the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on non-U.S. dollar commitments.
Uncalled Fund Commitments
Total Uncalled Fund Commitments includes capital callable from fund investors, including funds outside of their investment period, for which capital is callable for follow-on investments.

Long-term Private Funds
As of June 30, 2025, we managed approximately $269 billion of Fee-Bearing Capital across a diverse range of long-term private funds that target opportunistic (20%+, gross), value-add (15%-16%, gross), core and core plus (9%-13%, gross) returns. These funds are generally closed-end and have a long duration, typically committed for 10 years with 2 one-year extension options.
On these products, we earn:
•Diversified and long-term base management fees, typically on committed capital or invested capital, depending on the nature of the fund and where the fund is in its life,
•Transaction and advisory fees on co-investment capital that we raise and deploy alongside our long-term private funds, which vary based on transaction agreements, and
•Carried interest or performance fees, which entitle us to a portion of overall fund profits, provided that investors receive a minimum prescribed preferred return. Carried interest is typically paid towards the end of the life of a fund after capital has been returned to investors and may be subject to "clawback" until all investments have been monetized and minimum investment returns are sufficiently assured. BN is entitled to receive 33.3% of the carried interest on new sponsored funds of BAM and will retain all of the carried interest earned on our existing mature funds.
Permanent Capital and Perpetual Strategies
As of June 30, 2025, we managed approximately $222 billion of Fee-Bearing Capital across our permanent capital vehicles, perpetual core, and core plus private funds.
On these products, we earn:
•Long-term perpetual base management fees, which are based on the market capitalization or net asset value of our permanent capital vehicles and on the net asset value of our perpetual private funds.
•Stable incentive distribution fees from BEP and BIP, which are linked to the growth in cash distributions paid to investors above a predetermined hurdle. Both BEP and BIP have a long-standing track record of growing distributions annually within their target range of 5-9%.
•Performance fees from BBU are based on unit price performance above a prescribed high-water mark price, which are not subject to clawback, as well as carried interest on our perpetual private funds.
Liquid Strategies
As of June 30, 2025, we managed approximately $71 billion of Fee-Bearing Capital across our liquid strategies, which included capital that we manage on behalf of our publicly listed funds and separately managed accounts, with a focus on fixed income and equity securities across real estate, infrastructure, and natural resources.
On these products, we earn:
•Base management fees, which are based on committed capital or fund net asset value, and
•Performance income based on investment returns above a minimum prescribed return.

Fee Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were $1.3 billion, an increase of $137 million or 12% compared to the prior period. This increase was predominantly due to an increase in base management fees of $137 million or 13%, driven by $46 million of incremental Fee Revenues from fundraising within our fifth real estate flagship fund and second vintage of the global transition fund, $37 million of incremental earnings from partner managers, $19 million from net capitalization increases across our listed affiliates, and $27 million of higher fee revenue as a result of capital raised by our credit franchise and deployments within the twelfth flagship opportunistic credit fund.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, Fee-Bearing Capital increased by $2.2 billion or 1% to $254 billion, primarily due to insurance capital inflows from BWS of $4.1 billion, $4.1 billion of capital deployed within our perpetual and liquid credit strategies, and $3.6 billion attributable to fundraising from long-term private funds and capital deployed across our other credit platform funds. In addition, higher market valuations across our long-term private funds, liquid credit and perpetual strategies of $2.1 billion further increased our Fee-Bearing Capital. These increases were offset by $4.4 billion of redemptions within certain of our liquid and perpetual strategies and $2.6 billion of insurance capital outflows in BWS due to maturities of annuities, as well as $2.0 billion of returns of capital within our Oaktree strategies and $1.1 billion of distributions from our partner managers. In addition, other changes partially relate to foreign exchange revaluation impacting various credit perpetual and liquid strategies.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, Fee-Bearing Capital increased by $9.0 billion or 4% to $254 billion, primarily due to $10.7 billion of insurance capital inflows from BWS, $9.3 billion of capital deployed within our other long-term private funds and perpetual and liquid credit strategies, $1.3 billion of fundraising from our real estate and infrastructure debt strategies, and $1.2 billion of capital raised within our partner managers. In addition, $3.6 billion of market valuation increases associated with our liquid and perpetual strategies further increased Fee-Bearing Capital. This increase was partially offset by $5.3 billion of redemptions within certain of our liquid and perpetual strategies and $5.2 billion of outflows primarily due to maturities of annuities within insurance capital in BWS, $4.5 billion of distributions from our Oaktree long-term private funds, and $1.3 billion from our partner manager distributions. Credit changes partially relate to foreign exchange revaluation impacting various credit perpetual and liquid strategies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
BAM maintains sufficient liquidity at all times, enabling it to participate in investment opportunities as they arise, withstand sudden adverse changes in economic conditions, and sustain distributions. Typical cash flow activities include earning fees on assets managed, paying operating expenses, and paying cash dividends to shareholders. From time to time, BAM may draw on a revolving credit facility to bridge timing differences between the receipt and outflow of funds. It may also issue additional debt to finance growth through strategic investments. The primary sources of liquidity, which we refer to as corporate liquidity, consist of cash, short-term financial assets, as well as the undrawn portions of the revolving credit facilities.
As at June 30, 2025, corporate liquidity for BAM is $1.5 billion. This consists of $490 million in cash and short term financial assets that are convertible to cash within twelve months, as well as $1.0 billion in undrawn credit facilities. This liquidity can be deployed for use without any material tax consequences to support BAM in funding strategic transactions as well as seeding new investment products.
•During the three months ended June 30, 2025, BAM completed its inaugural debt offering, issuing approximately $750 million of 10-year bonds at a fixed annual coupon of 5.795%.
•A $750 million five-year revolving credit facility was established on August 29, 2024 through bilateral agreements with a group of lenders. U.S. dollar draws are subject to the U.S. Base Rate or SOFR plus a margin of 110 basis points, while Canadian dollar draws are subject to the Canadian Prime Rate or CORRA plus a margin of 110 basis points. As at June 30, 2025, the $750 million facility is undrawn.
•On November 8, 2022 a $300 million revolving credit facility was established, with BN as lender. U.S. dollar draws are subject to the U.S. Base Rate or SOFR plus a margin of 165 basis points, while Canadian dollar draws are subject to the Canadian Prime Rate or CORRA plus a margin of 165 basis points. As at June 30, 2025, the facility is undrawn.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Critical Accounting Policies, Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements
BAM prepares condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported. Management believes that estimates utilized in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements are presented fairly, in all material respects. Such estimates include those used in the valuation of investments and the measurement of deferred tax balances (including valuation allowances) and the determination of control or significant influence. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. BAM believes the following critical accounting policies could potentially produce materially different results of BAM, if underlying assumptions, estimates and/or judgments were to be changed. For a full description of accounting policies, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the condensed consolidated financial statements of BAM as at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Equity Method Investments
Investments in which BAM is deemed to exert significant influence, but not control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. BAM has significant influence over Oaktree and other partner managers and therefore accounts for these investments under the equity method.
The carrying value of equity method investments is determined based on amounts invested by BAM, adjusted for the equity in earnings or losses of the investee allocated based on the relevant agreements, less distributions received. Under the equity method of accounting, BAM's share of earnings from equity investments is included in the share of income from equity investments in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. BAM evaluates its equity method investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such investments may not be recoverable.
Refer to Note 4 "Investments" of the condensed consolidated financial statements of BAM for further details of BAM's equity method investments.
Control or Level of Influence
When determining the appropriate basis of accounting for BAM's investees, BAM makes judgments about the degree of influence that it exerts directly or through an arrangement over the investees' relevant activities. This may include the ability to elect investee directors or appoint management. Control is obtained when BAM has the power to direct the relevant investing, financing and operating decisions of an entity and does so in its capacity as principal of the operations, rather than as an agent for other investors. Operating as a principal includes having sufficient capital at risk in any investee and exposure to the variability of the returns generated as a result of the decisions of BAM as principal. Judgment is used in determining the sufficiency of the capital at risk or variability of returns. In making these judgments, BAM considers the ability of other investors to remove BAM as a manager or general partner in a controlled partnership.
Indicators of Impairment
Judgment is applied when determining whether indicators of impairment exist when assessing the carrying values of BAM's assets, including: the determination of BAM's ability to hold financial assets; the determination of discount and capitalization rates; and when an asset's carrying value is above the value derived using publicly traded prices which are quoted in a liquid market.
Income Taxes
BAM makes judgments when determining the future tax rates applicable and identifying the temporary differences. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply during the year when the assets are realized or the liabilities settled, using the tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the condensed consolidated balance sheet dates.
Carried Interest Allocations - Unrealized
The change in the fair value of investments is a significant input into carried interest allocations - unrealized. Estimates and assumptions are made when determining the fair value of the underlying investments within the funds. See "Fair Value" below for further discussion related to significant estimates and assumptions used for determining fair value of the underlying investments.
Fair Value
BAM uses fair value throughout the reporting process. For details of our accounting policies related to fair value refer to Note 2. "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Fair Value of Financial Instruments" and "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Revenue Recognition" in the "Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements". The following discussion is intended
to provide supplemental information about how the application of fair value principles impact our financial results, and management's process for implementing those principles including areas of significant judgment.
The fair value of the investments held by BAM's funds is the primary input to the calculation of certain of our management fees, incentive fees, performance fees and the related compensation we recognize. In the absence of observable market prices, we utilize valuation methodologies applied on a consistent basis and assumptions that we believe market participants would use to determine the fair value of the investments. For investments where little market activity exists management's determination of fair value is based on the best information available in the circumstances, which may incorporate management's own assumptions and involves a significant degree of judgment, and the consideration of a combination of internal and external factors, including the appropriate risk adjustments for non-performance and liquidity risks.
Management has elected the fair value option for certain equity method investments. Additionally, management is required to measure specific financial instruments at fair value, including debt instruments, equity securities, and freestanding derivatives.
Our primary approach to determining the fair value of our investments is generally the income approach, which estimates fair value based on the present value of expected future cash flows generated by a business. The most commonly used method within this approach is the discounted cash flow method, which incorporates key assumptions about the investment's projected net earnings or cash flows, discount rate, capitalization rate, and exit multiple.
Alternatively, management uses the market approach as a secondary methodology. This approach primarily relies on valuations of comparable public companies, transactions, or assets, requiring judgment in selecting appropriate comparables. Depending on the specific facts and circumstances of the investment, alternative primary and secondary methodologies may be applied, including option value, contingent claims or scenario analysis, yield analysis, projected cash flow through maturity or expiration, discount to sale, probability-weighted methods, or recent financing rounds.
