New York, October 20, 2022: Blackstone (NYSE:BX) today reported its third quarter 2022 results.

$183 billion year to date, and we grew total assets under management 30% year over year to a record $951 billion.

The Blackstone brand has never been stronger.”

FRE Margin is calculated by dividing Fee Related Earnings by Fee Related Revenues (defined as the sum of Total Segment Management and Advisory Fees, Net and Fee Related Performance Revenues). If quarterly crystallization of<br>BREIT’s fee related performance revenues had been in effect for all quarters included in the current and prior year LTM periods, LTM FRE would have been up 34% year-over-year and LTM Segment DE would have been up 26% year-over-year.

INVESTMENT RECORDS AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 – NOTES

The returns presented herein represent those of the applicable Blackstone Funds and not those of Blackstone Inc.

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.<br>
--- ---
(c) Multiple of Invested Capital (“MOIC”) represents carrying value, before management fees, expenses and<br>Performance Revenues, divided by invested capital.
--- ---
(d) Unless otherwise indicated, Net Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”) represents the annualized inception to<br>September 30, 2022 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<br>inception date of cash flows 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.<br>Overall BREP International II performance reflects a 7% Realized Net IRR and a 7% Total Net IRR.
--- ---
(f) BREP Co-Investment represents<br>co-investment capital raised for various BREP investments. The Net IRR reflected is calculated by aggregating each co-investment’s realized proceeds and unrealized<br>value, as applicable, after management fees, expenses and Performance Revenues.
--- ---
(g) BREDS High-Yield represents the flagship real estate debt drawdown funds only.
--- ---
(h) Blackstone Core Equity Partners is a core private equity strategy which invests with a more modest risk profile and<br>longer hold period than traditional private equity.
--- ---
(i) Realizations are treated as return of capital until fully recovered and therefore unrealized and realized MOICs are<br>not applicable. Returns are calculated from results that are reported on a three-month lag from Strategic Partners’ fund financial statements and therefore do not include the impact of economic and market activities in the current quarter.<br>
--- ---
(j) Funds presented represent the flagship credit drawdown funds only. The Total Credit Net IRR is the combined IRR of<br>the credit drawdown funds presented.
--- ---
(k) Represents the performance for select Perpetual Capital Strategies; strategies excluded consist primarily of<br>(1) investment strategies that have been investing for less than one year, (2) most perpetual capital assets managed for insurance clients, and (3) investment vehicles where Blackstone does not earn fees.
--- ---
(l) Unless otherwise indicated, Total Net Return represents the annualized inception to September 30, 2022 IRR on total<br>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 investor cash flows. Initial inception date of cash flows occurred<br>during the Inception Year.
--- ---

This analysis reconciles the components of Total Segment Distributable Earnings (page 3) to their equivalent GAAP measures, reported on the Consolidated Statement of Operations (page 1).

NOTES

Notes to page 1 -Blackstone’s Third Quarter 2022 GAAP Results

§ Income Before Provision for Taxes Margin is calculated by dividing Income Before Provision for Taxes by Total Revenues.

Notes to page 4 – Summary of Financials

§ Effective 1Q’22, the BREIT performance revenues crystallize quarterly instead of annually. If quarterly crystallization of BREIT’s fee related performance revenues had been in effect for all quarters included<br>in the current and prior year LTM periods, FRE would have been $4,661 million, $3,486 million, and $1,045 million for 3Q’22 LTM, 3Q’21 LTM, and 3Q’21 respectively and Segment DE would have been $8,155 million,<br>$6,479 million, and $2,074 million for 3Q’22 LTM, 3Q’21 LTM, and 3Q’21 respectively and there would have been no impact to Income (Loss) before Taxes for 3Q’22 LTM, 3Q’21 LTM, and 3Q’21. This change only<br>affects the timing of realization and not the total amount of net performance revenues recognized; the impact decreases unrealized performance allocations and unrealized performance allocations compensation for the periods, offset by increases to<br>realized fee related performance revenues and realized fee related performance compensation.

Notes to page 5 - InvestmentPerformance and Net Accrued Performance Revenues

§ 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.
§ Core+ appreciation represents a weighted average of BREIT’s per share appreciation, BEPIF’s per share appreciation, and BPP’s appreciation for the period. The returns are weighted based on the average of<br>BREIT’s monthly net asset values, BEPIF’s monthly net asset values, and the average of BPP’s quarterly adjusted beginning period market values for the period.

§ 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 underlying investments on a<br>same-quarter basis, if available. 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 includes only BAAM-managed commingled and customized multi-manager funds and accounts and does not<br>include BAAM’s individual investor solutions (liquid alternatives), strategic capital (seeding and GP minority stakes), strategic opportunities (co-invests), and advisory<br>(non-discretionary) platforms, except for investments by BPS funds directly into those platforms. BAAM-managed funds in liquidation and, in the case of net returns, non<br>fee-paying assets 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<br>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.

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. Common shareholders receive tax<br>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.
§ 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.

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<br>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<br>Blackstone Funds, eliminates non-controlling ownership interests in Blackstone’s consolidated operating partnerships, removes the amortization of intangible assets and removes Transaction-Related Charges.<br>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<br>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<br>excluding Fee Related Performance Compensation and Equity-Based Performance Compensation).
--- ---
Segment Revenues represent Net Management and Advisory Fees, Fee Related<br>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<br>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 and Dividend Income (Loss) less Taxes and Related Payables. DE excludes<br>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 and Dividend Income (Loss) is presented on a segment basis and is<br>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<br>include only the current tax provision (benefit) calculated on Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes and including the Payable under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Further, the current tax provision utilized when calculating Taxes and<br>Related Payables and DE reflects the benefit of deductions available to the company on certain expense items that are excluded from the underlying calculation of Segment DE and Total Segment Distributable Earnings, such as equity-based compensation<br>charges and certain Transaction-Related Charges where there is a current tax provision or benefit. The economic assumptions and methodologies that impact the implied income tax provision are the same as those methodologies and assumptions used in<br>calculating the current income tax provision for Blackstone’s consolidated statements of operations under U.S. GAAP, excluding the impact of divestitures and accrued tax contingencies and refunds which are reflected when paid or received.<br>Management believes that including the amount payable under the tax receivable agreement and utilizing the current income tax provision adjusted as described above when calculating DE is meaningful as it increases comparability between periods and<br>more accurately reflects earnings that are available for distribution to shareholders.
--- ---
§ 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<br>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<br>(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.

DEFINITIONS AND DIVIDEND POLICY – (CONT’D)

Fee Related Compensation is presented on a segment basis and refers to the<br>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<br>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.
--- ---
Other Operating Expenses is presented on a segment basis and is equal to General,<br>Administrative and Other Expenses, adjusted to (a) remove the amortization of transaction-related intangibles, (b) remove certain expenses reimbursed by the Blackstone Funds which are netted against Management and Advisory Fees, Net in<br>Blackstone’s segment presentation, and (c) give effect to an administrative fee collected on a quarterly basis from certain holders of Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units. The administrative fee is accounted for as a capital contribution<br>under GAAP, but is reflected as a reduction of Other Operating Expenses in Blackstone’s segment presentation.
--- ---
Perpetual Capital refers to the component of assets under management with an<br>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<br>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<br>(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.
--- ---
Performance Compensation reflects an increase in the aggregate Realized Performance<br>Compensation paid to certain of our professionals above the amounts allocable to them based upon the percentage participation in the relevant performance plans previously awarded to them as a result of a compensation program that commenced in<br>2Q’21. The expectation is that for the full year 2022, Fee Related Compensation will be decreased by the total amount of additional Performance Compensation awarded for the year. In 3Q’22 the increase to Realized Performance Compensation<br>was less than the decrease to Fee Related Compensation, which favorably impacted Distributable Earnings for the quarter. On a year-to-date basis, the increase to<br>Realized Performance Compensation was greater than the decrease to Fee Related Compensation, which negatively impacted Distributable Earnings. These changes to Performance Compensation and Fee Related Compensation are not expected to impact<br>Distributable Earnings for the full year.
--- ---
§ Transaction-Related Charges arise from corporate actions including acquisitions, divestitures, and Blackstone’s initial public offering. They consist primarily of equity-based compensation charges,<br>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.

DEFINITIONS AND DIVIDEND POLICY – (CONT’D)

Dividend Policy. Blackstone’s intention is to pay to holders of common stock a quarterly dividend representing approximately 85% of Blackstone 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 reduce such quarterly dividends or even to eliminate such dividends entirely.
