BlackRock Reports Third Quarter 2024 Diluted EPS of $10.90, or $11.46 as adjusted
New York, October 11, 2024 – BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE: BLK) today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

$360 billion of year-to-date total net inflows reflect continued strength of broad-based platform, and surpass full year net inflows of 2022 and 2023 Record $221 billion of quarterly total net inflows represent 8% annualized organic asset growth and were positive across client type, product type, active and index, and regions $11.5 trillion in AUM, up $2.4 trillion year-over-year, driven by $456 billion of net inflows and positive market movements 15% increase in revenue year-over-year, driven by the positive impact of markets on average AUM, organic base fee growth, and higher performance fees 23% increase in operating income year-over-year (26% as adjusted) 2% increase in diluted EPS year-over-year (5% as adjusted) also reflects a higher effective tax rate in the current quarter $375 million of share repurchases in the current quarter Closed acquisition of Global Infrastructure Partners ("GIP") on October 1st, adding $116 billion of client AUM and $70 billion of fee-paying AUM Laurence D. Fink, Chairman and CEO: “Our strategy is ambitious, and our strategy is working. The assets we manage on behalf of our clients reached a new high, ending the third quarter at $11.5 trillion, having grown $2.4 trillion over the last twelve months. In that time, clients have entrusted BlackRock with $456 billion of net inflows, including a record $221 billion in the third quarter. Third quarter organic base fee growth of 5% and technology services ACV growth of 15% are each at multi-year highs. “We are effectively leveraging our technology, scale, and global footprint to deliver profitable growth. Quarterly revenue and operating income both set new records, up 15% and 26% year-over-year, respectively. Our 45.8% operating margin is up 350 basis points. “Through coordinated investments and initiatives, we are evolving our private markets capabilities to best serve our clients. We’re already seeing the power of BlackRock and GIP together as we drive access to the enormous investment potential of infrastructure, especially to support AI innovation. We believe the model portfolio solution we are building will democratize retail access to private markets. And our planned acquisition of Preqin will enhance data and risk analytics needed to support growing private markets allocations. “Our relentless focus on clients, growth mindset and willingness to evolve has generated a compounded annual total return of over 20% for our shareholders since our IPO 25 years ago, well in excess of broader markets. The opportunities ahead of us have never been greater, and we look forward to driving growth for our clients, shareholders and employees in the years to come.”

Highlights

•Investment advisory and administration fees and securities lending revenue increased $349 million from the third quarter of 2023 and $155 million from the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by positive organic base fee growth and the impact of market beta on average AUM, partially offset by lower securities lending revenue. The increase in revenue from the second quarter of 2024 also reflected the impact of one additional day in the quarter.

Securities lending revenue of $149 million decreased from $167 million in the third quarter of 2023 and $154 million in the second quarter of 2024, primarily reflecting lower spreads partially offset by higher average balances of securities on loan.

•Performance fees increased $318 million from the third quarter of 2023 and $224 million from the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by strong performance in the third quarter of 2024 from a single hedge fund with an annual performance measurement period that ends in the third quarter, partially offset by lower revenue from illiquid alternatives.

•Technology services revenue decreased $4 million from the third quarter of 2023, due to the revenue impact linked to several large client renewals of their eFront “on-premises” licenses during the third quarter of 2023. Technology services annual contract value (“ACV”)(1) increased 15% from the third quarter of 2023, driven by sustained demand for a full range of Aladdin technology offerings.

Technology services revenue increased $8 million from the second quarter of 2024, reflecting successful client go-lives.

(1)Beginning in the first quarter of 2024, BlackRock, Inc. updated the presentation of the Company’s expense line items within the condensed consolidated statements of income by including a new “sales, asset and account expense” income statement caption. Such expense line items have been recast for 2023 to conform to this new presentation. For a recast of 2023 expense line items, see page 12 of Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K furnished on April 12, 2024.

Highlights

•Employee compensation and benefits expense increased $158 million from the third quarter of 2023 and $75 million from the second quarter of 2024, reflecting higher incentive compensation, primarily as a result of higher performance fees and operating income.

•Sales, asset and account expense increased $54 million from the third quarter of 2023 and $33 million from the second quarter of 2024, driven by higher distribution and servicing costs and direct fund expense, primarily reflecting higher average AUM.

•General and administration expense increased $44 million from the third quarter of 2023 and $28 million from the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher technology expense and higher professional services expense, including higher acquisition-related transaction costs, partially offset by lower marketing and promotional expense.

•Amortization and impairment of intangible assets expense increased $50 million from the third quarter of 2023 and the second quarter of 2024, driven by a $50 million noncash impairment charge related to certain of the Company’s indefinite-lived management contracts. Amortization and impairment of intangible assets is excluded from the Company’s “as adjusted” financial results. See pages 11 through 13 for the reconciliation to GAAP and notes (1) through (3) for more information on as adjusted items.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF INCOME AND SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION(unaudited)

BlackRock reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP; however, management believes evaluating the Company’s ongoing operating results may be enhanced if investors have additional non-GAAP financial measures. Adjustments to GAAP financial measures (“non-GAAP adjustments”) include certain items management deems nonrecurring or that occur infrequently, transactions that ultimately will not impact BlackRock’s book value or certain tax items that do not impact cash flow. Management reviews non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to assess ongoing operations and considers them to be helpful, for both management and investors, in evaluating BlackRock’s financial performance over time. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures as a benchmark to compare its performance with other companies and to enhance comparability for the reporting periods presented. Non-GAAP financial measures may pose limitations because they do not include all of BlackRock’s revenue and expense. BlackRock’s management does not advocate that investors consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Computations and reconciliations for all periods are derived from the condensed consolidated statements of income as follows:

(1) Operating income, as adjusted, and operating margin, as adjusted: Management believes operating income, as adjusted, and operating margin, as adjusted, are effective indicators of BlackRock’s financial performance over time, and, therefore, provide useful disclosure to investors. Management believes that operating margin, as adjusted, reflects the Company’s long-term ability to manage ongoing costs in relation to its revenues. The Company uses operating margin, as adjusted, to assess the Company’s financial performance, to determine the long-term and annual compensation of the Company’s senior-level employees and to evaluate the Company’s relative performance against industry peers. Furthermore, this metric eliminates margin variability arising from the accounting of revenues and expenses related to distributing different product structures in multiple distribution channels utilized by asset managers.

•Operating income, as adjusted, includes the following non-GAAP expense adjustments:

(a)Compensation expense related to appreciation (depreciation) on deferred cash compensation plans. The Company excludes compensation expense related to the market valuation changes on certain deferred cash compensation plans, which the Company hedges economically. For these deferred cash compensation plans, the final value of the deferred amount to be distributed to employees in cash upon vesting is determined based on the returns on specified investment funds. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the appreciation (depreciation) of the deferred cash compensation liability in proportion to the vested amount of the award during a respective period, while the net gain (loss) to economically hedge these plans is immediately recognized in nonoperating income (expense), which creates a timing difference impacting net income. This timing difference will reverse and offset to zero over the life of the award at the end of the multi-year vesting period. Management believes excluding market valuation changes related to the deferred cash compensation plans in the calculation of operating income, as adjusted, provides useful disclosure to both management and investors of the Company’s financial performance over time as these amounts are economically hedged, while also increasing comparability with other companies.

(b)Acquisition-related costs. Acquisition related costs include adjustments related to amortization and noncash impairment of intangible assets, other acquisition-related costs, including professional services expense and compensation costs for nonrecurring retention-related deferred compensation, and contingent consideration fair value adjustments incurred in connection with certain acquisitions. Management believes excluding the impact of these expenses when calculating operating income, as adjusted, provides a helpful indication of the Company’s financial performance over time, thereby providing helpful information for both management and investors while also increasing comparability with other companies.

(c)Lease costs – New York. In 2023, the Company continued to recognize lease expense within general and administration expense for both its current headquarters located at 50 Hudson Yards in New York and prior headquarters until the Company's lease on its prior headquarters expired in April 2023. The Company began lease payments related to its current headquarters in May 2023, but began recording lease expense in August 2021 when it obtained access to the building to begin its tenant improvements. Prior to the Company’s move to its current headquarters in February 2023, the impact of lease costs related to 50 Hudson Yards was excluded from operating income, as adjusted. In February 2023, the Company completed the majority of its move to 50 Hudson Yards and no longer excluded the impact of these lease costs. Subsequently, from February 2023 through April 2023, the Company excluded the impact of lease costs related to the Company's prior headquarters. Management believes excluding the impact of these respective New York lease costs (“Lease costs – New York”) when calculating operating income, as adjusted, is useful to assess the Company’s financial performance and ongoing operations, and enhances comparability among periods presented.

(d)Reduction of indemnification asset. In connection with a previous acquisition, BlackRock recorded an $8 million indemnification asset. Due to the resolution of certain tax matters in the third quarter of 2023, BlackRock recorded $8 million of general and administration expense to reflect the reduction of the indemnification asset and an offsetting $8 million tax benefit. The $8 million general and administrative expense and $8 million tax benefit have been excluded from as adjusted results as there was no impact on BlackRock’s book value.

•Revenue used for calculating operating margin, as adjusted, is reduced to exclude all of the Company’s distribution fees, which are recorded as a separate line item on the condensed consolidated statements of income, as well as a portion of investment advisory fees received that is used to pay distribution and servicing costs. For certain products, based on distinct arrangements, distribution fees are collected by the Company and then passed-through to third-party client intermediaries. For other products, investment advisory fees are collected by the Company and a portion is passed-through to third-party client intermediaries. However, in both structures, the third-party client intermediary similarly owns the relationship with the retail client and is responsible for distributing the product and servicing the client. The amount of distribution and investment advisory fees fluctuates each period primarily based on a predetermined percentage of the value of AUM during the period. These fees also vary based on the type of investment product sold and the geographic location where it is sold. In addition, the Company may waive fees on certain products that could result in the reduction of payments to the third-party intermediaries.

(2) Nonoperating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted: Management believes nonoperating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted, is an effective measure for reviewing BlackRock’s nonoperating contribution to its results and provides comparability of this information among reporting periods. Nonoperating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted, excludes the gain (loss) on the economic hedge of certain deferred cash compensation plans. As the gain (loss) on investments and derivatives used to hedge these compensation plans over time substantially offsets the compensation expense related to the market valuation changes on these deferred cash compensation plans, which is included in operating income, GAAP basis, management believes excluding the gain (loss) on the economic hedge of the deferred cash compensation plans when calculating nonoperating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted, provides a useful measure for both management and investors of BlackRock’s nonoperating results that impact book value.

(3) Net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted: Management believes net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted, and diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted, are useful measures of BlackRock’s profitability and financial performance. Net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted, equals net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., GAAP basis, adjusted for certain items management deems nonrecurring or that occur infrequently, transactions that ultimately will not impact BlackRock’s book value or certain tax items that do not impact cash flow.

For each period presented, the non-GAAP adjustments were tax effected at the respective blended rates applicable to the adjustments. Amount for income tax matters in 2024 includes a discrete tax benefit of $137 million recognized in connection with the reorganization and establishment of a more efficient global intellectual property and technology platform and corporate structure. This discrete tax benefit has been excluded from as adjusted results due to the nonrecurring nature of the intellectual property reorganization.

Per share amounts reflect net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted, divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.

(4)ACV: Management believes ACV is an effective metric for reviewing BlackRock’s technology services’ ongoing contribution to its operating results and provides comparability of this information among reporting periods while also providing a useful supplemental metric for both management and investors of BlackRock’s growth in technology services revenue over time, as it is linked to the net new business in technology services. ACV represents forward-looking, annualized estimated value of the recurring subscription fees under client contracts, assuming all client contracts that come up for renewal are renewed, unless we have received a notice of termination, even though such notice may not be effective until a later date. ACV also includes the annualized estimated value of new sales, for existing and new clients, when we execute client contracts, even though the recurring fees may not be effective until a later date and excludes nonrecurring fees such as implementation and consulting fees.
