Form 10-K for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2021 Results of Operations, page 82 1. We note the materiality and variability of net income (loss) attributable to each interest in the periods presented. Please tell us and revise future filings to provide a discussion of net income (loss) attributable to: redeemable noncontrolling interests, noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries, noncontrolling interests in GCMH, and GCM Grosvenor Inc. This discussion should provide investors with a better understanding of the underlying reasons for changes in these line items from period to period and the material drivers of the net income loss attributable to each interest. Refer to Item 303 of Regulation S-K for guidance. Pamela Bentley GCM Grosvenor Inc. June 28, 2022 Page 2 Non-GAAP Financial Measures, page 85 2. Please tell us and revise future filings to further explain why management believes the presentation of each individual non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors. For example, for adjusted income measures, more clearly explain why the material adjustments result in a measure that provides additional insight into your profitability and why the adjustments are not indicative of your core performance. Refer to Item 10(e)(1)(i)(c) of Regulation S-K. 3. Please tell us and revise future filings to clarify why you believe adding back net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in GCMH for certain adjusted income measures provides useful information to investors. Additionally, clarify why you do not add back income attributable to other noncontrolling interests. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements , page 110 4. We note your disclosure on pages 61 and 65 related to potential restrictions on distributions from GCMH. Please revise future filings to disclose the amount of retained earnings or net income that is restricted or free from restrictions for payment of dividends and distributions by GCMH. Refer to Rule 4-08(e)(3) of Regulation S-X for guidance. Note 21. Earnings (Loss) Per Share, page 142 5. Please tell us in detail and revise future filings to explain what the adjustment in the numerator for exchange of partnership units represents and how you calculate it. Also, explain to us why the adjustment does not equal the net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in GCMH. In closing, we remind you that the company and its management are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of action by the staff.
