SK and KKR Launch Korea's Largest Renewable Energy PlatformJune 30, 2026 10:14 PM
Business Wire New renewable energy platform with ~1.7GW of capacity in operation - and a pipeline that brings total capacity to 10GW - to meet Korea's surging clean-power demand from AI data centers and semiconductor manufacturing SK Inc. (“SK”) and KKR, a leading global investment firm, today announced the signing of definitive agreements under which funds managed by KKR and SK will launch Korea's largest renewable energy platform valued at KRW 2 trillion (~$1.3 billion). Through this newly established platform (“Platform”), SK and KKR will bring together renewable energy assets previously held by SK affiliates spanning solar, onshore and offshore wind, and fuel cells into a single, integrated platform, tapping into each company’s respective operational experience and renewables investment expertise. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260625373798/en/ The launch of the Platform marks the latest transaction between KKR and SK, deepening a longstanding relationship built across multiple collaborations. It will help Korea meet the surging demand for clean power from AI data centers, semiconductor production lines, and other large industrial needs. KKR will have management control of the platform in its initial phase, with SK participating as an equity investor and retaining the flexibility to pursue control rights through future discussions. By bringing together renewable businesses and assets from SK Innovation, SK ecoplant, and SK eternix, the Platform integrates the entire value chain, from development and construction through to operation and maintenance, enhancing economies of scale and operational efficiency. The Platform will manage a portfolio covering all areas of renewable energy generation - except hydrogen - including solar, offshore and onshore wind, and fuel cells. The Platform will be Korea’s largest renewable energy business, with approximately 1.7GW of capacity currently in operation and a development pipeline that will bring the total capacity to 10GW, which is capable of simultaneously and continuously powering 100 large-scale, 100MW-class data centers. At this scale, the Platform is well positioned to become a reliable, large-scale source of clean power for Korea's most demanding industrial users, from AI data centers to global semiconductor production lines, and more. Keith Kim, Partner at KKR, commented, “We are delighted to work alongside SK, a strategic partner with deep local operational capability. Korea is one of Asia's most attractive renewable energy markets, underpinned by strong corporate demand for clean power from the semiconductor, data center, and manufacturing sectors. Together, we are establishing a leading, scaled renewable energy platform that can supply reliable clean power to Korea's most demanding industrial users.” SK is integrating these renewable energy businesses as part of a proactive portfolio rebalancing aimed at strengthening their sustainability and competitiveness. By combining the capital strength of a global fund with SK's execution capability, SK aims to respond to surging clean energy demand and build a sustainable growth model over the long term. KKR is making this investment primarily from its Asia Pacific infrastructure strategy. KKR is one of the most active infrastructure investors globally, with over $100 billion in infrastructure assets under management and more than $31 billion invested into energy transition and renewables infrastructure since 2011. Across Asia Pacific, KKR has invested behind the region's energy transition through platforms such as Serentica Renewables, a clean-energy platform delivering power to large-scale industrial users in India; CleanPeak Energy, a distributed-energy platform in Australia; and Zenith Energy, an off-grid energy solution platform in Australia. SK plans to use the launch of the Platform as an opportunity to strengthen the foundation and support the growth of its renewable energy business, while continuing to restructure its portfolio in a direction that enhances capital efficiency and business competitiveness.

KKR Announces Intra-Quarter UpdateJune 25, 2026 6:50 AM
Business Wire KKR today announced income from monetization activity in excess of $900 million with respect to the period from March 31, 2026 through June 24, 2026 based on information currently available. The quarter-to-date monetization activity is made up of approximately 80% realized performance income and approximately 20% realized investment income. Based on year-to-date information available as of June 24, 2026, KKR has experienced an acceleration in its monetization activity and, in turn, an acceleration in capital returned to its clients. In Q1 2026, monetization activity (Realized Performance Income and Realized Investment Income) was $878 million, or +62% compared to the quarterly average of $542 million from 2023 through 2025. $900 million would be +66% compared to this 3-year quarterly average. In addition, beginning with its Q2 2026 reporting, KKR will report realized performance fees from its K-Series Private Equity vehicles in Fee Related Performance Revenues within its segment earnings, which will be subject to a 15-20% Fee Related Compensation margin. Historically, these fees were included within Realized Performance Income and were subject to a 70-80% compensation margin. We believe including these fees in Fee Related Performance Revenues conforms to current industry practice and enhances comparability for investors. Performance fees from its K-Series Infrastructure vehicles will continue to be reported in Fee Related Performance Revenues. KKR also announced that it expects Capital Markets transaction fees for Q2 2026 to be approximately $175 million as certain transaction activity expected to close in late Q2 2026 is now expected to close in Q3 2026. The monetization estimate disclosed above is not intended to predict or represent total realized performance income, total realized investment income or total revenues for the full quarter ending June 30, 2026, because it does not include the results or impact of any other sources of income, including fee income, or expenses, and we may realize further gains or losses relating to total realized performance income and total realized investment income after the date of this press release. The monetization estimate disclosed above is based on information available to us as of June 24, 2026 with respect to the period from March 31, 2026 through June 24, 2026. The Q2 2026 Capital Markets transaction fees amount disclosed above is an estimate only, which is based on information available through June 24, 2026, and it is not a guarantee of actual results for Q2 2026, which could be higher or lower than this estimate. These estimates are also not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other period, including the entire year ending December 31, 2026. About KKR

Arctos Sports, RVX and Magellan Partner to Launch National Sports-Anchored Development PlatformJune 23, 2026 7:00 AM
Business Wire Platform’s inaugural project is Neyland Entertainment District, a transformative mixed-use district adjacent to the University of Tennessee’s Neyland Stadium Arctos, an investing business in KKR Solutions that seeks to partner with exceptional leaders in sports to help them grow and unlock their vision, today announced a strategic partnership with RVX Ventures (“RVX”), a real estate development platform specializing in mixed-use entertainment districts, and Magellan Development Group (“Magellan”), a national leader in urban mixed-use real estate, to launch a new platform targeting the rapidly growing sports-anchored development sector. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260623588944/en/Rendering of the Neyland Entertainment District (working drawing; subject to change). The platform’s inaugural project is Neyland Entertainment District, a new development spanning the Tennessee River waterfront adjacent to Neyland Stadium at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville (the “University”). Structured as a public-private partnership with the University, the development will feature approximately 100,000 square feet of entertainment space alongside a 24-story hotel and residences, along with a private members club, designed to enhance the gameday experience while creating a year-round destination for the Knoxville community. Arctos is the majority equity investor and is participating as a general partner alongside a sponsor team led by RVX, Magellan and Dixon Greenwood. “Neyland Stadium is an iconic venue in college sports, and we’re grateful to the University of Tennessee for their shared vision and collaboration in bringing this dynamic entertainment district to life,” said Chad Hutchinson, Partner at Arctos. “We see significant opportunity at the convergence of live sports and real estate, and we wanted to be more than a capital provider in this space. RVX and Magellan have the track records and the operational know-how to deliver on complex projects like this, and together we can define how sports-anchored districts are conceived, built and operated.” Universities, professional sports organizations and municipalities are increasingly seeking to transform the areas surrounding their venues into year-round destinations. Delivering these districts at scale requires significant capital, large-scale development expertise, and hands-on experience programming and operating entertainment venues, capabilities this partnership is designed to bring together under a single platform. “We believe sports-anchored entertainment districts represent one of the most compelling opportunities in experiential real estate today," said Taylor Gray, Principal of RVX Ventures. "With Arctos and Magellan as partners, we are building a platform with the expertise, relationships and capital needed to deliver transformative projects for universities, teams and communities across the country." Neyland Entertainment District is the first project for what the partners intend to be a national platform pursuing opportunities across the collegiate and professional sports landscape. The partnership’s model spans sourcing, capitalization, development and operations, allowing the team to take projects from concept through execution under a single structure. While the platform will operate at a national scale, each project is designed to reflect the identity and priorities of the community it serves. “This project will be one of the great sports-anchored destinations in the country. It has it all: a passionate fanbase, legendary venue and a university committed to doing something transformative,” said J.R. Berger, President of Magellan Development Group. “Magellan has spent three decades reshaping neighborhoods and creating places that endure, and we’re excited to bring those same principles to the sports and entertainment space alongside RVX and Arctos. Neyland Entertainment District will set a new standard for what development adjacent to major sports assets can look like.” About Arctos

KKR Launches Helix Digital Infrastructure, a New Company to Finance and Deliver the Next Generation of AI InfrastructureJune 11, 2026 6:50 AM
Business Wire Helix launches with over $10 billion of committed capital to accelerate the deployment of data centers, power and connectivity required to meet growing demand for AI Kuwait Investment Authority, NVIDIA and Vistra join KKR as founding investors; NVIDIA to serve as a cornerstone strategic partner, Vistra as the preferred power partner to Helix Former Amazon Web Services CEO Adam Selipsky leads new company KKR, together with the Kuwait Investment Authority (KIA), NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Vistra (NYSE: VST) today announced the launch of Helix Digital Infrastructure (“Helix”), a new company designed to deliver integrated infrastructure at the speed and scale required for hyperscalers to meet accelerating artificial intelligence (AI) demand. As building AI infrastructure becomes increasingly complex, Helix will serve as a single coordination point for hyperscalers’ data centers, power, connectivity and related needs. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260610500794/en/ Founded with anchor investments from investors including KKR, KIA, NVIDIA and Vistra, the Helix strategy has more than $10 billion in total long-duration capital commitments to date. NVIDIA will also serve as a strategic partner to support the deployment of NVIDIA DSX AI factory-aligned infrastructure with a view to maximizing tokens per watt, achieving lowest total cost of ownership and accelerating time to first token for investments pursued by Helix. Vistra, a leading integrated power generation and electricity company with operations across 18 states and Washington, D.C., will be the preferred power provider for Helix investments. Following the closing of the founding commitments, Helix is open to additional eligible institutional investors. AI is driving the largest infrastructure buildout in modern history, requiring trillions of dollars in investment across data centers, power generation and transmission, connectivity and related infrastructure over the coming decade. The scale and complexity of financing and coordinating this buildout represents a key industry bottleneck, ultimately slowing hyperscalers from delivering the models, services and applications their customers demand. Delivering AI infrastructure requires credible, long-term financial underwriters capable of committing capital consistently. Hyperscalers are also seeking more integrated and repeatable infrastructure solutions that meaningfully reduce the complexity they face in building at unprecedented scale. KKR launched Helix in response to these challenges. Helix will be positioned as a single, trusted strategic partner to hyperscalers, armed with a long-duration, multi-billion-dollar capital base, and with integrated development capabilities and coordinated execution across AI infrastructure. The company is led by Adam Selipsky, former CEO of Amazon Web Services, who brings first-hand experience scaling the world’s largest cloud business, and deep insight into hyperscaler infrastructure priorities. He is joined by a dedicated management team and Board. Waldemar Szlezak, KKR’s Global Head of Digital Infrastructure, will serve as Helix’s Chief Investment Officer. Helix will seek to invest in and manage assets critical to enabling AI, including hyperscale data center development and operations; baseload and flexible power generation; transmission and distribution infrastructure; and fiber and connectivity infrastructure, among other assets. “Large users of digital infrastructure have an urgent need to reduce complexity and unlock new capacity. Helix combines significant long-term capital with the capabilities and expertise to deliver holistic AI infrastructure solutions with speed and scale,” said Adam Selipsky, Co-Founder and CEO of Helix Digital Infrastructure. “Helix is further strengthened by strategic partnerships with NVIDIA and Vistra across technology and power, which we believe will enable the company to deliver the infrastructure that will underpin hyperscalers’ AI strategies for years to come.” “We view AI infrastructure as one of the defining long-term investment opportunities globally, and Helix is purpose-built to address it,” said Sheikh Saoud Salem Abdulaziz Al-Sabah, Managing Director of the Kuwait Investment Authority. “Helix reflects a differentiated model that combines proven leadership, integrated capabilities and long-term capital required to deliver the next generation of critical digital infrastructure at scale.” “Useful AI has arrived, and demand for AI factories is extraordinary,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “AI is driving the largest infrastructure buildout in modern history.

KKR to Open New Office in Milan, Strengthening Long-Term Commitment to ItalyMay 28, 2026 3:00 AM
Business Wire New office reflects KKR’s localisation strategy and opportunity in Italy’s evolving investment landscape KKR, a leading global investment firm, today announced plans to open an office in Milan, further strengthening its long-term commitment to Italy and expanding its local presence in one of Europe’s largest economies. The office will support the firm’s investment activity across Private Equity, Real Assets, Credit and Insurance, while deepening client partnerships and advancing the continued development of KKR’s private wealth business in Italy. Italy has been an important market for KKR for over two decades, with over €10 billion of capital deployed since 2005 across Private Equity, Real Assets and Credit. The firm’s investments include FiberCop, Europe’s first wholesale-only, open-access fibre network, Enilive, a key player in advancing Italy’s energy transition, and CMC, a sustainable packaging leader using robotics to drive innovation. These investments reflect KKR’s focus on partnering with businesses in sectors critical to long-term economic growth and transformation, and on supporting Italy’s role as a key industrial and economic engine within Europe. The office will be led by Marco Fontana, Partner in KKR’s Infrastructure team, who will relocate from London. Nicolò Della Casa, Director in KKR’s Private Equity team, will also relocate to Milan to lead the firm’s Private Equity activities in Italy. Together with members of KKR’s Client Solutions team, they will drive the continued expansion of KKR’s local presence as the firm grows its investment activities and client partnerships in the market. Joe Bae and Scott Nuttall, Co-CEOs of KKR, commented: “Italy has been an important market for KKR for many years. The country’s focus on strengthening its economic foundations, supporting key industries and creating the conditions for long-term investment is increasingly evident, and we see a growing opportunity for private capital to play a constructive role. Opening an office in Milan reflects our commitment to being closer to our partners and to supporting investment across sectors that are central to Italy’s long-term growth.” Mattia Caprioli and Tara Davies, Co-Heads of KKR EMEA, said: “We are seeing a clear and consistent focus on competitiveness, investment and economic modernisation in Italy, which is creating a positive environment for long-term capital. Establishing an office in Milan is a natural step in our EMEA strategy, where we are increasingly localising our business by bringing more of our people into key markets. We believe this is a real differentiator and will allow us to deepen our engagement in Italy while connecting it to the full breadth of KKR’s global platform.” Marco Fontana, Partner, Infrastructure and Head of the Milan Office, added: “We are proud to be establishing a dedicated presence in Milan. Italy presents significant opportunity across areas such as digital infrastructure, energy transition and broader economic transformation. At the same time, we are building a team on the ground with deep local expertise and strong relationships across the market. Being present locally will allow us to work more closely with companies, clients and stakeholders, and to continue developing long-term partnerships in Italy.” Nicolò Della Casa, Director and Head of Private Equity in Italy, stated: “Italy's entrepreneurial ecosystem, with its depth of founder- and family-owned businesses across a broad range of industries, presents a distinctly attractive environment for KKR's Private Equity strategy. Establishing a presence in Milan will allow us to engage more directly with these businesses, supporting them in accelerating their growth and realising their international ambitions.” About KKR KKR is a leading global investment firm that offers alternative asset management as well as capital markets and insurance solutions.

Reserv Announces $125 Million Series C Financing Led by KKR to Accelerate AI-Driven Transformation of Insurance ClaimsMay 4, 2026 7:03 AM
Business Wire
Reserv Inc. (“Reserv”), the parent company of Reserv Claims Analysis, LLC - the Property and Casualty (P&C) Insurance industry’s largest AI-native third-party administrator (“TPA”) - and Reserv Technologies, LLC - a claims intelligence provider - today announced a $125 million Series C funding round led by KKR, with participation from existing investors including Bain Capital Ventures and Flourish Ventures, as well as select strategic partners and clients.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260504407536/en/Reserv co-founders CJ Przybyl and Martha Dreiling
Founded in 2022, Reserv provides TPA services and technology to nearly 200 insurers, corporate captives, MGAs, and brokers. The company has achieved strong commercial traction, with annual recurring revenue (ARR) reaching $100 million and rapid year-on-year growth as it scales its platform. With over 500 claims adjusters on staff, Reserv has more than doubled its claims processing capacity every year while continuing to improve claims outcomes, provide data transparency, and innovate new technology solutions for its client partners. The investment from funds and accounts managed by KKR is expected to help Reserv continue to more than double its claim capacity every year from 500,000 annual complex claims capacity today to 30 million in the next four years, which means creating enough capacity to service and automate a significant portion of the P&C industry across non-field-based commercial claims.
“We started this company to prove how seamless claims processing could be if technology wasn’t the bottleneck - with ongoing feature evolution instead of constant system overhauls. And our focus is not just on claims processing tools, but automation of the entire organization,” said CJ Przybyl, co-founder and CEO. “Reserv has now reached a scale - in claims processing capacity, technology velocity, data accumulation, and people transformation capabilities - where we can automate even the most complex claims. This enables an adjuster-led, empathetic experience, with every ‘i’ dotted and ‘t’ crossed with the support of AI and built on an infinitely scalable, purpose-built platform and flexible tech stack.”
“What Reserv has done from an AI and operational perspective to deliver faster and better quality outcomes for its customers is truly differentiated in the market,” said Patrick Devine, Partner at KKR. “We’re excited to partner with this high-calibre management team, which has the rare combination of innovation, agility, and operational sophistication to rapidly scale to meet customer needs and deliver differentiated outcomes compared to legacy claims handling approaches,” added Elliot Bell, Principal at KKR.
"After scaling York Risk Services into one of the nation's largest TPAs, I've seen virtually every claims model the industry has produced,” said Rick Taketa, Board Member and former CEO of York Risk Services. “What Reserv has built is genuinely different—AI-driven capabilities that go beyond automation to meaningfully improve outcomes for claimants and customers alike. KKR's investment reflects what I've seen firsthand: this is a company positioned to lead the next phase of innovation in claims, with its most significant impact still ahead."
The Reserv Glance™ claims platform enables customers to migrate any size of historical and open claims into a centralized database. It then uses fully explainable AI to analyze and act on critical claims, while scaling human and automated workflows quickly. This enables customers to phase out legacy claims systems and operations in a matter of weeks. Clients can choose how much automation they want to apply — from automated handling of simpler claims to more supported approaches for complex cases. Reserv operates in a “post-AI” environment, where the latest AI tools are immediately production-ready and integrated into the platform. The emphasis shifts from building standalone tools to supporting adjuster and insurer teams as they adapt their processes to this pace of innovation.
The investment will be made primarily through KKR’s Next Generation Technology Growth strategy, which builds on the firm’s established track record in technology investing, and leverages KKR’s institutional knowledge from investing extensively across the insurance value chain.
Reserv was advised by Paul Hastings as legal adviser. KKR was advised by Gibson Dunn as legal adviser.
About Reserv
Reserv is an AI-native third-party administrator (TPA) and software provider for property and casualty insurance. Purpose-built by claims and technology veterans, Reserv delivers tech-forward claims handling at scale, enabling insurers to drive down loss costs, streamline operations, and improve the customer experience.

Flow Control Group to Receive Investment from Neuberger Private MarketsApril 30, 2026 5:00 PM
Business Wire
Flow Control Group (“the Company” or “FCG”), a leading North American network of technical flow control and industrial automation distributors and solutions providers, today announced that KKR, the Company’s existing investor, and Neuberger Private Markets (“Neuberger”) have agreed to jointly acquire the Company. As part of this transaction, funds managed by KKR will maintain majority ownership of FCG, with Neuberger holding a significant minority interest in the Company.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260429172174/en/
Since KKR’s initial acquisition of Flow Control Group in 2021, the Company has scaled into a preeminent platform in the distribution sector with revenue and EBITDA more than tripling over KKR’s ownership period. This has been driven by a strategy focused on growing the business organically, while also expanding through strategic acquisitions. By advancing cross-selling, expanding technical service capabilities, and investing extensively in digital and IT infrastructure, KKR has helped broaden the Company’s reach across new end-markets and strengthen technical offerings that serve critical North American industries.
This growth includes substantial investments in FCG’s workforce of over 1,000 technical sales professionals and 600 service technicians, who support customers in key end-markets like water & wastewater, life sciences, aerospace & defense, food & beverage, power generation, and high-growth segments such as data centers and advanced automation. Through differentiated training and recruitment efforts, FCG has invested extensively in its best-in-class workforce. These efforts have allowed FCG to take a differentiated partnership approach with suppliers and customers.
“Flow Control Group exemplifies KKR’s approach of taking great businesses to the next level through a combination of strategic acquisitions and operational value creation,” said Josh Weisenbeck, Partner at KKR that leads KKR’s Industrials industry team within KKR’s North American private equity platform. “We are proud of the progress achieved to date and look forward to strategically partnering with Neuberger’s Private Markets team, FCG’s management team, and the many highly engaged employee-owners to support the Company’s next phase of growth.”
“We’ve followed Flow Control Group’s evolution over the past decade,” said David Stonberg, Deputy Head of Neuberger Private Markets, “and we view the platform as a best-in-class distributor and key technical provider for its customers in industries benefiting from favorable tailwinds. As a result of its strong technical differentiation, resilient business model, and proven track record of growth, we couldn’t be more pleased to collaborate with KKR, the management team, and FCG’s employee-owners to support the Company’s continued expansion and long-term value creation.”
At the time of KKR’s 2021 acquisition, KKR implemented a broad-based ownership program, whereby all employees of Flow Control Group became owners in the Company.
“One of the most impactful parts of working with KKR was their focus on employee ownership and engagement,” said Raymond Aronoff, Chief Executive Officer and President of Flow Control Group. “Throughout our strategic partnership, we’ve created a winning culture oriented around ownership. This includes our ‘Pathway to the Summit’ – a shared strategic vision to guide employee-owners toward a successful financial outcome for all stakeholders. Alignment around a strong vision of value-added distribution and technical services, coupled with a true sense of ownership by all employees, supported FCG’s transformation into a scaled platform focused on delivering critical products, solutions, and technical expertise to our valued customers and suppliers. KKR has played a critical role in supporting our growth, and we are excited to welcome Neuberger as we continue to expand our capabilities, invest in our team, and pursue new opportunities across our markets.”

Apnimed Secures Up to $150 Million in Debt Financing with HealthCare Royalty Partners to Support Planned AD109 Commercial LaunchApril 6, 2026 8:00 AM
PR Newswire (US)
Strengthens balance sheet to support commercial readiness and planned U.S. launch of AD109 oral pill for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)On track to submit New Drug Application (NDA) for AD109 later this quarterCAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Apnimed, Inc., a pharmaceutical company developing novel oral therapies for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), today announced that it has entered into a senior secured credit facility for up to $150 million with funds managed by HealthCare Royalty Partners ("HCRx"). The capital is expected to support commercial readiness activities and the planned U.S. launch of Apnimed's lead product candidate, AD109, if approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Under the terms of the agreement, Apnimed will receive $50 million at closing. An additional $50 million tranche will become available upon FDA approval of AD109, and the company may access a third $50 million tranche upon achievement of a pre-specified sales milestone, subject to customary closing conditions.The financing includes an interest-only period of four years, which is extended to five years, if Apnimed achieves a specified net sales milestone. Apnimed also agreed to pay a synthetic royalty equal to a low single-digit percentage of net sales of AD109 and certain other specified revenues, subject to customary terms and conditions."HCR is a highly respected healthcare investor with deep experience in credit financing, and their investment represents an important validation of our investigational product, AD109 and its commercial potential," said Larry Miller, Chief Executive Officer of Apnimed. "This strategic financing provides significant financial flexibility and supports our continued progress toward the potential U.S. commercialization of AD109, if approved.""With its focused regulatory and commercial strategy for AD109, a novel oral therapy designed to address the root causes of OSA, we believe Apnimed is uniquely positioned to meaningfully impact the treatment landscape for patients living with this serious disease," said Clarke Futch, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of HealthCare Royalty Partners. "We look forward to supporting Apnimed's continued growth and mission to bring this innovative treatment option to patients as expeditiously as possible."Apnimed previously reported positive results from the pivotal SynAIRgy and LunAIRo Phase 3 trials for AD109, which will support the planned submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, expected later this quarter.About HealthCare RoyaltyHealthCare Royalty ("HCRx") is a leading royalty acquisition company founded in 2006 that is majority owned by KKR & Co. Inc. (NYSE: KKR). Over two decades, the HCRx team has developed a strong track record of investing in commercial-stage and near-commercial-stage biopharmaceutical assets, committing $7+ billion in over 110 biopharmaceutical products. With offices in New York, Stamford, San Francisco, Boston, London and Miami, HCRx continues to advance biopharmaceutical innovation by providing innovative capital solutions to counterparties. For more information, visit https://www.hcrx.com. HEALTHCARE ROYALTY®, HEALTHCARE ROYALTY PARTNERS® and HCRx® are registered trademarks of HealthCare Royalty Management, LLC.About AD109AD109 is designed to be the first pharmacological treatment to improve oxygenation during sleep by directly addressing the neuromuscular root cause of upper airway collapse in people with OSA. It is a first-in-class combination of aroxybutynin, a novel antimuscarinic, and atomoxetine, a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (NRI). Their combined pharmacological synergy is designed to target the underlying neuromuscular cause of OSA. AD109 is a once-daily pill taken at bedtime that is designed to lower the complexity of intervention and may help more people benefit from effective, restorative sleep. In a disease characterized by complex and invasive treatment options, AD109 may be a simple solution to help improve oxygenation and health wellbeing for people living with OSA. About Obstructive Sleep Apnea OSA is a serious, chronic sleep-related breathing disease in which the upper airway repeatedly collapses during sleep, leading to intermittent oxygen deprivation. It is caused by two overlapping mechanisms: neuromuscular dysfunction during sleep and predisposing anatomic abnormalities. OSA affects individuals across all walks of life, impacting both males and females of all age groups, ethnicities, and weight classes, including those with or without obesity. An estimated 80 million people in the United States and one billion people worldwide suffer from OSA. An individual with OSA can experience hundreds of sleep apnea events in a single night, each one reducing the blood oxygen levels and negatively impacting cellular functions vital to normal health and function. Failure to effectively treat OSA increases the risk of serious long-term health consequences, including cardiovascular, neurocognitive and cardiometabolic damage and heightened mortality. Yet, many patients diagnosed with OSA remain untreated.About Apnimed Apnimed is a privately held late-stage clinical pharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery, development and commercialization of novel oral therapies that address the neurobiology of sleep-related breathing diseases. We believe the introduction of simple, once-nightly oral drugs has the potential to expand diagnosis and the reach of treatment for people with OSA. We believe that OSA would benefit from having multiple drugs with differing mechanisms to more fully address the heterogeneity of disease pathophysiology. Apnimed envisions a new era where novel oral therapies simplify intervention, expand the reach of diagnosis and treatment, and help more people get the oxygen and restorative sleep needed to thrive.Based in Cambridge, Mass., Apnimed is advancing AD109, designed to improve oxygenation in individuals living with OSA. We believe that AD109 could become the catalyst for a new oral treatment paradigm for OSA that has been historically limited to cumbersome devices or invasive surgeries. AD109 has completed two Phase 3 clinical trials for the treatment of mild, moderate and severe OSA and Apnimed plans to submit its New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the FDA) in the second quarter of 2026.Learn more at apnimed.com or follow us on X and LinkedIn.

KKR, a leading global investment firm, and Taiyo Holdings Co., Ltd. (“Taiyo Holdings” or the “Company”; TSE stock code 4626), announced today that KJ005 Co., Ltd. (the “Offeror”), an entity owned by investment funds managed by KKR, intends to make a tender offer to acquire all the common shares of Taiyo Holdings (the “Tender Offer”). Taiyo Holdings’ Board of Directors has resolved to support the Tender Offer. In addition, DIC Corporation (“DIC”), Taiyo Holdings’ largest shareholder, Kowa Co., Ltd. (“Kowa”), an asset management company affiliated with Taiyo Holdings’ founding family, and funds managed by Oasis Management Company Ltd. (“Oasis”) have each entered into agreements to participate in the Tender Offer or related transactions to privatize the Company. With these agreements in place, KKR has secured support for the transaction from the shareholders representing approximately 42.2% of the Company’s outstanding shares1.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260330364697/en/
Taiyo Holdings is a leading global manufacturer of electronic materials, including solder resist for printed circuit boards. The Company also operates a medical and pharmaceutical business. As part of its long-term management plan “Beyond Imagination 2030,” Taiyo Holdings recognizes the importance of capturing growth opportunities in its electronics business driven by the rapid expansion of generative AI, data centers, and communications infrastructure, while also advancing structural reforms and expanding its contract manufacturing business in the medical and pharmaceutical field. Taiyo Holdings concluded that privatization would provide the best pathway to its growth strategy by enabling it to focus on long-term strategy and more agile decision-making. After carefully evaluating several proposals, Taiyo Holdings concluded that a privatization by KKR, with its deep sector experience, global network, and operational expertise, presents the best way forward for Taiyo Holdings to create value for its shareholders and accelerate its growth strategy for the long term.
The proposed Tender Offer price will be JPY 4,750 per common share, which represents:2
A premium of 117.19% to the six-month average unaffected closing price of Taiyo Holdings’ shares as of May 27, 20253; and
A premium of 140.14% to the six-month average unaffected closing price of Taiyo Holdings’ shares as of February 18, 2025.4
In conjunction with the Tender Offer, KKR has entered into agreements with DIC and Kowa, who have each agreed to sell their shares to Taiyo Holdings through a share consolidation and buyback to be implemented following the successful completion of the Tender Offer. Following the privatization, Taiyo Holdings’ founding family plans to re-invest in KJ005HD Co., Ltd., the KKR-managed investment vehicle that will own Taiyo Holdings. KKR has also entered into a tender agreement with Oasis whereby Oasis will tender its shares representing approximately 15.62% of Taiyo Holdings outstanding shares into the Tender Offer.
Eiji Yatagawa, Partner and Head of Japan Private Equity at KKR, said, “We are pleased to have the opportunity to support the growth of Taiyo Holdings, a leading electronics materials manufacturer with a long track record of technical expertise and manufacturing excellence. We look forward to leveraging KKR’s global network and operational expertise in the advanced materials and pharmaceutical sectors to help Taiyo Holdings unlock future growth and greater value for its clients.”
Hitoshi Saito, President and Chief Executive Officer of Taiyo Holdings, said, “This strategic partnership with KKR marks an important milestone for Taiyo Holdings. As a private company, we will be able to pursue long-term investments in our core technologies with greater focus and stability, which we could not achieve on our own, through our corporate value enhancement initiative, ‘Beyond Boundaries’—an initiative that embodies our commitment to transcending various limitations and boundaries in order to achieve our long-term management plan for ‘Beyond Imagination 2030’. We share KKR’s belief that sustainable growth is built together with employees, and their focus on employee ownership closely aligns with our long-held culture of partnership. By combining our technological foundation with KKR’s global network and operational expertise, we will advance Taiyo Holdings toward its next chapter.”
KKR is making this investment as part of its flagship Asia Pacific private equity strategy. KKR has been investing in Japan for two decades and manages more than $20 billion in assets under management in the country. KKR’s investments in Japan include KOKUSAI ELECTRIC, a leading global supplier of semiconductor manufacturing equipment; Bushu Pharma, a pharmaceutical CDMO; Topcon, a manufacturer of optical equipment for eye care and machine control equipment; FUJI SOFT, a leading IT services company; and LOGISTEED, a global third-party logistics provider.

CoolIT Employees Share in $4.75 Billion Transaction as KKR Agrees to Sell to EcolabMarch 25, 2026 4:30 PM
Business Wire
KKR and its investors achieve 15x return
100% of CoolIT employees receive significant payouts
KKR, a leading global investment firm, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell CoolIT Systems (“CoolIT” or “the Company”), a global leader in liquid data center cooling, to Ecolab in a transaction valued at $4.75 billion. The sale will represent one of KKR’s largest recent realizations, generating approximately 15x the original equity invested, inclusive of distributions. At the close of the transaction, all CoolIT employees will receive a substantial cash payout on their ownership in the Company. Mubadala Investment Company (“Mubadala”) also served as a co-investor in CoolIT.
A 25-year pioneer in liquid cooling, CoolIT designs and manufactures advanced systems that enable sustainable data center growth as AI-driven compute demand increases. While cooling can account for up to 50% of total facility energy use in traditional air-cooled data centers, liquid-cooled data centers use ~30-40% less energy for cooling while also reducing water consumption as a closed-loop system. Today, leading hyperscalers and data center operators rely on CoolIT’s liquid cooling technologies to improve energy efficiency and support higher-density AI infrastructure across more than 300 data centers globally.
KKR acquired CoolIT in 2023 through its Global Impact Fund II, which helps scale innovative commercial solutions to global challenges. In 2025, CoolIT’s solutions delivered an estimated 2.18 billion kWh in energy savings, enough to power approximately 200,000 homes for one year.
“We acted early on the conviction that rapid growth in computing demand would pose a significant challenge for data center efficiency, as traditional air-cooled systems can be incredibly energy- and water-intensive. As a leader in liquid cooling, CoolIT delivers compelling solutions that strengthen this critical infrastructure while reducing resource consumption,” said Kyle Matter, Managing Director and Head of North America Global Impact at KKR. “This outcome reflects exactly the type of opportunity we seek in our Global Impact strategy. We are proud of the CoolIT team’s accomplishments and believe the business is very well positioned for sustained growth.”
At the time of acquisition, CoolIT employees became owners in the business through a broad-based ownership program, aligning the entire organization around long-term value creation. With this sale, CoolIT’s 650 employees will receive cash payouts, ranging from approximately one year of annual pay for employees to over eight years of annual pay. Employees will also be eligible to receive pre-paid personal financial coaching and tax preparation services.
With the support of KKR, CoolIT delivered significant operational improvements and growth across the business, driven by a strong ownership mindset, continued product innovation, and expanded relationships with hyperscale customers. Since 2023, the Company has:
Doubled its workforce, adding more than 300 jobs
Expanded its manufacturing footprint to more than 300,000 square feet and increased coolant distribution unit (CDU) capacity by 25x
Positioned the business to deliver projected ~4x revenue growth and ~10x EBITDA growth through 2026
“CoolIT demonstrates the power of a true ownership culture in driving meaningful results for both companies and employees. When employees are owners, they have a direct stake in the company’s success and help drive the innovation and execution that fuel long-term growth,” said Pete Stavros, Partner and Global Co-Head of Private Equity at KKR. “This result reflects the team's dedication, and every employee gets to share in the upside.”
Following the close of the transaction, CoolIT’s leadership team, led by CEO Jason Waxman, is expected to remain in place and continue to run the business under the CoolIT name.
“This milestone is the result of the combination of CoolIT’s unique expertise and talent, KKR’s acumen in investing in high growth opportunities, and Ecolab’s track record of acquiring world-class technical capability,” said CoolIT CEO Jason Waxman. “I am grateful for KKR’s commitment and investment in our unprecedented growth. By combining CoolIT’s anchor technology with Ecolab’s proven strengths in water, chemistry, digital, and global service, we are creating holistic, end-to-end cooling capabilities. Together, we are positioning CoolIT and Ecolab as the industry’s most dynamic company in liquid cooling, one of the most important technologies for AI data centers.”
KKR focuses on employee engagement and broad-based equity participation as a key driver in building stronger companies and expanding financial opportunity. Since 2011, 85 KKR portfolio companies have awarded billions of dollars in equity to more than 190,000 non-senior management employees globally. This milestone represents KKR’s first broad-based ownership program payout in Canada and the first for its Global Impact strategy in North America.
“Our successful partnership with KKR and the CoolIT management team is a testament to the value that can be created through active management and aligned ownership, and we are proud of what has been achieved together. We are confident that CoolIT will continue to build on this momentum as it enters its next chapter,” said Abdulla Mohamed Shadid, Head of Energy and Sustainability, Private Equity at Mubadala.
The transaction, which is subject to customary regulatory approvals, is expected to close in Q3 2026.
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Baird are serving as financial advisors and Kirkland & Ellis is serving as legal advisor to KKR and CoolIT.

KKR Forms $310 Million Strategic Partnership with PMI Electro to Scale E-Bus Platform AllfleetMarch 18, 2026 12:06 AM
Business Wire
Transaction marks milestone first KKR Global Climate Transition investment in India
KKR, a leading global investment firm, Allfleet India Private Limited (“Allfleet”), and PMI Electro Mobility Solutions Private Limited (“PMI Electro”), a manufacturer of electric commercial vehicles in India, today announced the signing of definitive agreements under which KKR-managed funds will commit up to $310 million to form a strategic partnership with Allfleet and PMI Electro to help scale Allfleet’s electric bus (“e-bus”) platform and further advance PMI Electro’s manufacturing capabilities. As part of the investment, KKR will acquire a majority stake in Allfleet and minority stake in PMI Electro. This marks the first KKR Global Climate Transition investment in India and the strategy’s eighth investment globally, including recent investments in Australia.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260316328702/en/
Established in 2022, Allfleet (operating through its subsidiaries) is PMI Electro’s e-bus platform, focused on developing, owning, and operating large-scale electric public transport fleets. Today, Allfleet is on course to deploy a fleet of more than 5,000 e-buses, operating under long-term concession and service agreements with multiple state transport authorities supporting urban mobility needs across key cities.
As India accelerates its transition towards decarbonization and cleaner urban mobility, the need to scale reliable and efficient electric public transport infrastructure becomes increasingly critical. KKR’s investment will support Allfleet’s continued growth and strengthen its ability to collaborate with public transport authorities to expand e-bus fleets across key cities, and help deliver cleaner and more reliable public transport for Indian commuters. This builds on an integrated, end-to-end solution spanning manufacturing, ownership, operations, and lifecycle support enabled by the ongoing partnership between Allfleet and PMI Electro, an early mover in e-buses in India.
“Transport electrification is a critical pillar of the energy transition, and India – with its scale, urbanization trends, and decarbonization ambitions – represents one of the most significant opportunities for the sector globally,” said Neil Arora, Partner and Head of KKR’s Climate Transition strategy for Asia Pacific. “The differentiated combination of Allfleet’s proven, scalable platform and PMI’s manufacturing and service expertise stands out as a full-service solution in this market. We look forward to supporting Allfleet’s next phase of growth by working together with PMI and leveraging KKR’s global operational expertise and experience investing across climate transition.”
Aanchal Jain, CEO, PMI Electro and Director, Allfleet, said: “This investment by KKR marks a defining milestone in our journey and is a powerful endorsement of the integrated electric mobility platform we have built at Allfleet. PMI Electro’s vision is to create a scalable, reliable, and future-ready ecosystem that can transform public transport in India. As our cities grow and mobility needs evolve, clean, efficient, and accessible public transport will play a central role in shaping a more sustainable future.”
“Alongside KKR, the company will continue to focus on responsible scale-up and expanding its presence across Indian cities. This collaboration reflects the alignment of institutional capital, Indian manufacturing capabilities, and on-ground execution in delivering mobility solutions of national relevance.”
KKR is making this investment from its Global Climate Transition strategy. This marks KKR’s latest investment in India and first Global Climate Transition investment in the country. Since 2010, KKR has committed more than $44 billion to climate and environmental sustainability investments. Other KKR Climate investments have included Zenobe, a UK-based transport electrification and battery storage solutions specialist; CleanPeak, an Australian distributed energy platform; HMC Capital’s Energy Transition Platform, a battery energy storage and renewable energy generation platform in Australia; EGC, an energy service provider in Germany; Dawsongroup, an independent asset leasing business providing a diverse range of business-critical solutions; Avantus, a solar and solar-plus-storage developer in the US; and IGNIS P2X, an industrial decarbonisation platform.
The transaction is expected to close in mid-2026, subject to customary regulatory approvals.

Keurig Dr Pepper Announces Updated Financing Plan for JDE Peet's AcquisitionFebruary 23, 2026 4:30 PM
PR Newswire (US)
Company strengthens balance sheet by further reducing projected leverage
and attracts additional high-quality investorsBURLINGTON, Mass. and FRISCO, Texas, Feb. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. (NASDAQ: KDP; "the Company") today announced updated financing plans and transaction timelines for the acquisition of JDE Peet's and subsequent planned separation into two independent companies ("Beverage Co." and "Global Coffee Co." pending the announcement of official corporate names).Key developments include:A targeted close of the JDE Peet's acquisition in early April 2026, with expected combined net leverage of approximately 4.5x1An agreement to upsize the previously announced Beverage Co. convertible preferred equity investment co-led by Apollo and KKR to $4.5 billion from $3 billion, with additional participation from high-quality, long-term oriented investors including accounts advised by T. Rowe Price Investment Management; as a result, the Company will no longer consider a partial IPO of Beverage Co.Definitive agreements finalized for the Global Coffee Co. Pod Manufacturing JV first announced in October 2025Long term debt to be issued by the future Global Coffee Co. to finance the remaining portion of the JDE Peet's transactionCommenting on the announcements, Keurig Dr Pepper CFO Anthony DiSilvestro stated: "Today's update demonstrates our commitment to ensuring strong and resilient capital structures at each stage of this transaction by introducing an additional $1.5 billion of cost-efficient equity capital into the financing and bringing on board a high-quality mix of shareholders who recognize the value creation opportunity ahead. Our comprehensive financing solution, combined with strong cash generation, will drive rapid deleveraging, reinforce KDP's balance sheet, and help to establish Beverage Co. and Global Coffee Co. as successful, investment-grade companies." The Company now plans to finance the upcoming acquisition through a combination of approximately $9 billion of long-term debt, $8.5 billion of equity capital, and the assumption of approximately $5 billion of existing JDE Peet's bonds, resulting in projected combined net leverage of 4.5x1. The transaction, which is expected to close in early April 2026, remains forecasted to be approximately 10% EPS accretive in its first full year. The company continues to evaluate additional avenues to accelerate deleveraging, including potential non-core asset monetization opportunities.Separation timing will be based on the achievement of key milestones, including appropriate leverage levels at each company, and supportive market conditions. Though exact timing of the tax-free spin of Global Coffee Co. is yet to be determined, key transformation workstreams continue to target operational readiness to separate by year-end 2026.Equity FinancingThe Company reached a definitive agreement to increase the size of the previously announced convertible preferred stock investment in KDP to $4.5 billion, from the $3 billion co-led by funds managed by affiliates of Apollo (NYSE: APO) and funds and accounts managed by KKR (NYSE: KKR). Accounts advised by T. Rowe Price Investment Management (TRPIM) have provided an anchor commitment to support the upsize, alongside significant additional participation from Apollo, KKR, and other high-quality, long-term oriented investors. Post separation, the instrument will remain with Beverage Co. The key terms of the instrument are substantially consistent with the October 2025 announcement, including an initial conversion price of $37.25 per share and a preferred dividend rate of 4.75%. As a result of the upsize, the Company will no longer consider a partial IPO of the Beverage Co.In addition, definitive agreements for the Global Coffee Co. Pod Manufacturing JV have been executed on terms substantially consistent with the October 2025 announcement. The $4 billion investment into the joint venture will be co-led by Apollo and KKR with participation from Goldman Sachs Alternatives, as previously disclosed. The agreements are subject to customary closing conditions for transactions of this type.Debt FinancingTo complete the financing for the acquisition, the Company expects Global Coffee Co. to raise approximately $9 billion of debt capital through a mix of long-term senior debt and a temporary borrowing under the existing term loan facility. Global Coffee Co. will also assume approximately $5 billion of existing JDE Peet's bonds upon acquisition close.After the separation is complete, and accounting for additional deleveraging that will occur between acquisition close and the spin-off transaction, Global Coffee Co. plans to issue junior subordinated notes to repay any remaining portion outstanding on the term loan.___________________1 Projected as of June 30, 2026.

These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as supplements to and should not be considered replacements for, or superior to, the GAAP measures. These measures may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies, and other companies may not define the non-GAAP financial measure in the same way. Non-GAAP financial measures typically exclude certain charges, including one-time costs that are not expected to occur routinely in future periods, described by the Company as "items affecting comparability." The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our operating and financial performance and to compare such performance to that of prior periods and to the performance of our competitors. Additionally, we use non-GAAP financial measures in making operational and financial decisions and in our budgeting and planning process. We believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures to investors helps investors evaluate our operating performance, profitability and business trends in a way that is consistent with how management evaluates such performance.Management leverage ratio is defined as the Company's total principal amounts of debt less cash and cash equivalents, divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes that the Management leverage ratio is useful for investors in evaluating the Company's liquidity and assessing the Company's ability to meet its financial obligations.Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA, as adjusted for items affecting comparability, which include: (i) the unrealized mark-to-market impact of derivative instruments not designated as hedges in accordance with U.S. GAAP that do not have an offsetting risk reflected within the financial results, as well as the unrealized mark-to-market impact of our Vita Coco investment prior to its sale in the first quarter of 2025; (ii) the amortization associated with definite-lived intangible assets; (iii) the amortization of the deferred financing costs associated with the combination of the business operations with Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Inc. as of July 9, 2018 (the "DPS Merger"); (iv) the amortization of the fair value adjustment of the senior unsecured notes obtained as a result of the DPS Merger; (v) stock compensation expense and the associated windfall tax benefit attributable to the matching awards made to employees who made an initial investment in KDP; (vi) transaction costs for significant business combinations (completed or abandoned), excluding costs related to the JDE Peet's acquisition; (vii) non-cash changes in deferred tax liabilities related to goodwill and intangible assets as a result of tax rate or apportionment changes; and (viii) certain other items that are excluded for comparison purposes to prior year periods. EBITDA is defined as Net income as adjusted for interest expense, net; provision for income taxes; depreciation expense; amortization of intangibles; and other amortization. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful for investors in evaluating the Company's operating results and understanding the Company's operating trends by adjusting certain items that can vary significantly depending on specific underlying transactions or events, thereby affecting comparability.The Company does not provide reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures, due to the inability to predict the amount and timing of impacts outside of the Company's control on certain items, such as non-cash gains or losses resulting from mark-to-market adjustments of derivative instruments, among others, which could be material. Reconciling such items would require unreasonable efforts.RESTRICTIONSThis release does not constitute an offer, or any solicitation of any offer, to buy or subscribe for any securities in JDE Peet's N.V. Any offer will be made only by means of the offer memorandum approved by the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets, which is available as of January 15, 2026. This press release is not for release, publication or distribution, in whole or in part, in or into, directly or indirectly, in any jurisdiction in which such release, publication or distribution would be unlawful.Investor Contact:

KKR Forms A$600m Energy Transition Strategic Partnership with HMCFebruary 5, 2026 5:07 PM
Business Wire
HMC Capital (ASX: HMC) and KKR, a leading global investment firm, today announced the establishment of a new strategic partnership under which KKR-managed funds will invest up to $603 million into HMC’s Energy Transition Platform (the “Platform”). The investment will introduce KKR as a strategic partner alongside HMC in the Platform’s existing 652MW operational assets and its 5.7GW BESS and wind development pipeline. KKR’s investment will support the Platform’s continued expansion, including the development of new battery storage and wind projects critical to grid reliability and Australia’s energy transition.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260205961730/en/
The investment needed to fund Australia’s energy transition is considerable, and the Platform is well-placed to bring to market its significant clean energy generation capacity to support the growing energy demand from consumer, industrial and emerging AI users over the coming decades. This transaction establishes the foundation for HMC and KKR to significantly scale the existing Platform and identify growth opportunities alongside the Platform’s experienced management team.
HMC Capital Managing Director and CEO, David Di Pilla, said "We are delighted to be working with an experienced global investor of KKR’s calibre. KKR’s investment validates the quality of the Platform we have built and sets the foundation for HMC to play a major role in Australia’s transition to net zero carbon by 2050. KKR’s capital will enable the Platform to materially grow operating capacity, cash flow and progress the strategically valuable development pipeline."
KKR Partner and Head of KKR’s Climate Transition strategy for Asia, Neil Arora, said “As renewable generation in Australia continues to expand, the country’s energy system is at a pivotal moment. Delivering Australia’s ambition will require investment in flexible infrastructure such as battery storage to keep the grid secure and reliable. We are pleased to support HMC Capital’s leading operating platform, and by leveraging KKR’s global network, operational expertise, and deep experience across our climate, energy and infrastructure teams, we are well positioned to scale this platform and contribute meaningfully to Australia’s decarbonization objectives.”
HMC Capital Chair of Energy Transition Platform, the Hon. Julia Gillard AC, said “The introduction of KKR as a strategic partner marks a pivotal step in the Platform’s ambition to build a world class renewables business which can play a major role in helping Australia achieve its clean energy commitments. In KKR, we are delighted to have a collaborator with deep global relationships and expertise to help the Platform deliver on its goal to be a national champion of Australia’s transition to a net zero economy by 2050.”
KKR is funding this investment from its Global Climate Transition strategy. The firm has committed more than US$44 billion to climate and environmental sustainability investments since 2010 and is a leading investor in the energy transition. This marks KKR’s second Climate investment in Australia, following CleanPeak, an Australian distributed energy platform.
Other KKR Climate investments include Zenobe, a UK-based transport electrification and battery storage solutions specialist; EGC, an energy service provider in Germany; Dawsongroup, an independent asset leasing business which provides a diverse range of business-critical solutions; Avantus, a solar and solar-plus-storage developer in the US; and IGNIS P2X, an industrial decarbonisation platform in Spain.
The transaction is expected to close in mid-2026, subject to customary regulatory approvals.

KKR to Acquire Arctos, Establishing a New Platform for Sports, GP Solutions and Secondaries in a Strategic Transaction Initially Valued at $1.4 BillionFebruary 5, 2026 6:00 AM
Business Wire
Arctos will become a fully integrated investment unit of KKR
Transaction expected to be accretive per share across key financial metrics immediately post-closing
KKR & Co. Inc., a leading global investment firm, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Arctos Partners (“Arctos”), a premier institutional investor in professional sports franchise stakes and a leader in asset management solutions for sponsors. The transaction is valued at $1.4 billion in initial consideration, including equity subject to vesting through 2033, plus up to an additional $550 million in future equity tied to both KKR share price and business-specific performance targets and vesting through 2031.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260204778743/en/
Founded by Ian Charles and Doc O'Connor in 2019 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas, Arctos is the largest institutional investor in professional sports franchises and a recognized innovator in providing strategic capital to asset management firms through structured solutions. The firm manages approximately $15 billion in Assets Under Management (“AUM”) and provides bespoke growth and liquidity solutions to sports franchises (“Arctos Sports”) and alternative asset managers (“Arctos Keystone” or “GP Solutions”).
Charles and O’Connor, Managing Partners of Arctos, said, “KKR is a preeminent global investment firm and ideally positioned to help us achieve the vision we have for Arctos. We see tremendous opportunity to better serve the sports industry and the sponsor community, but the key to that unlock is a partnership that will provide access to strategic, financial and operational resources to accelerate our existing businesses. At the same time, we will be able to leverage KKR’s broad range of products and capabilities to extend and enhance our relationships with leagues, teams, GPs and sponsors. Through this transaction, we will become an even stronger partner to the markets and investors that we serve, which has been our goal from the very beginning.”
Joe Bae and Scott Nuttall, Co-Chief Executive Officers of KKR, said, “Arctos has created a distinctive and scaled platform across sports investing and capital solutions for asset managers, and the team has extensive experience in secondaries—three areas where we see significant long-term opportunity. The team has complementary strengths, strong cultural alignment, and an entrepreneurial approach that fits well with KKR. We look forward to working together to build a platform that expands opportunities across the entire KKR ecosystem.”
Strategic Rationale
The acquisition advances KKR’s strategy to scale its platform by building and acquiring complementary businesses in large addressable markets where KKR has the ability to be a leader. Bringing Arctos into KKR will provide access to capital and capabilities that will fuel the growth of Arctos’ existing businesses while also deepening KKR’s sourcing and origination capabilities and expanding its long-duration capital base.
Exceptional Business and Management Team. Managing Partners Ian Charles and Doc O’Connor, supported by a 76-person team, bring decades of expertise in sports, GP solutions and secondaries. Charles is a pioneer and innovator in the secondaries space, having cofounded the first secondaries market advisory firm, Cogent Partners, and later spending over a decade at Landmark Partners, where he was a Partner and helped design and execute the firm’s private equity strategy. O’Connor brings over 40 years of experience and unparalleled relationships in the sports ecosystem, having previously served as CEO of Madison Square Garden Company, and prior to that as Managing Partner of CAA, where he built what became the world’s leading entertainment and diversified sports agency business.
Leadership in Sports Investing. Arctos provides KKR with a differentiated entry point into the sports franchise stakes sector, a category characterized by historical and expected long-term value appreciation and growing global demand. Arctos is the largest institutional investor in professional sports franchise stakes and the only firm approved for multiteam ownership across all five major U.S. leagues (NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, MLS). With access to the breadth of KKR’s asset management business and product suite, Arctos will have more ways to strategically partner with teams and owners.
Scaled and Growing GP Solutions Platform. As a top five player in GP solutions, Arctos’ Keystone platform offers flexible, non-dilutive capital solutions for GPs across private markets. This segment of the broader manager and fund finance market has grown rapidly in recent years and continues to expand. As part of KKR, Arctos will be able to provide GPs access to a wider range of capital solutions, with greater flexibility on structure, permanence and cost of capital.
New Platform for Secondaries and Solutions. The private equity secondaries market saw record activity in 2025, with LP-led and GP-led volumes of approximately $226 billion, up 41% from 2024 and a compound annual growth rate of roughly 20% since 2013. Arctos’ experience and leadership provide a strong foundation and clear path for KKR to build and scale a leading secondaries and solutions business.
Enhanced Sourcing and Origination. Arctos meaningfully expands the reach of KKR’s proprietary origination and sourcing engine with complementary synergies across private equity, credit, infrastructure, real estate, insurance and capital markets. Utilizing these sources of capital, Arctos will also be positioned to expand its existing relationships across leagues, teams, GPs and sponsors.
Enhanced Wealth and Institutional Distribution. Sports and GP solutions asset classes resonate strongly with high-net-worth and mass-affluent investors. Arctos will similarly be able to grow its client base by virtue of having access to KKR’s global network, distribution and product development capabilities.
Expected to increase KKR’s earnings and long-duration capital base. Taking into account the transaction, perpetual and long-dated capital would represent 53% of KKR’s $759 billion of AUM.
Upon closing, Arctos’ Managing Partners Charles and O’Connor will join KKR as Partners, and Arctos’ full team and operations will become part of KKR. KKR will form a new investing business, KKR Solutions, which will be led by Charles. KKR Solutions will include Arctos’ Sports and Keystone businesses and serve as the home of a scaled multi-asset class secondaries business KKR will build over time.
“Ian Charles is one of the most experienced leaders in the secondaries space.” Bae and Nuttall added. “We have known Ian for more than a decade and have worked closely with him, including on KKR’s first structured secondaries transaction—a milestone that ultimately laid the foundation for our Health Care and Technology Growth platforms, which today manage over $17 billion of capital. With the team’s track record and history of innovation, we know Arctos is the right partner to help us build a leading franchise across sports, GP solutions and secondaries.”
Terms of the Transaction & Additional Details
KKR has agreed to acquire 100% of Arctos in a strategic transaction valued at $1.4 billion in initial consideration, including equity subject to vesting through 2033, plus up to an additional $550 million in future equity tied to both KKR share price and business-specific performance targets and vesting through 2031.
Initial consideration of $1.4 billion consists of $300 million in cash, $900 million of equity to existing Arctos shareholders (with Arctos management’s portion subject to vesting through 2030), and $200 million of additional equity to be allocated by 2028 and subject to vesting through 2033.
The transaction is expected to be accretive per share across key financial metrics immediately post-closing.
The transaction is subject to regulatory and specified sports league approvals, as well as customary closing conditions.
KKR was advised by Simpson Thacher, as legal counsel, and Kirkland & Ellis as sports counsel. Arctos was advised by Kirkland & Ellis as legal counsel. BofA Securities acted as exclusive financial advisor for Arctos.
KKR has filed an 8-K and posted an accompanying presentation on its website for KKR common stockholders and analysts entitled “KKR & Co. Inc. Acquisition of Arctos”. The presentation is accessible at the Investor Center for KKR & Co. Inc. at https://ir.kkr.com/events-presentations/.

KKR-Led Consortium with Singtel Group to Fully Acquire ST Telemedia Global Data Centres at S$13.8 Billion Enterprise ValueFebruary 3, 2026 6:25 PM
Business Wire
Marks one of the largest digital infrastructure transactions in Southeast Asia
Global investment firm KKR, Asia’s leading communications technology group Singtel, and ST Telemedia today announced the signing of definitive agreements under which funds managed by KKR and Singtel (together, the “Consortium”) will acquire the remaining 82% stake in ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (“STT GDC” or the “Company”), a leading data centre colocation services provider, from founding shareholder ST Telemedia for a total consideration of S$6.6 billion (approximately US$5.1 billion). This represents an implied enterprise value of approximately S$13.8 billion (approximately US$10.9 billion), including leverage and capital expenditure for committed projects.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260202441025/en/
Upon completion, KKR and Singtel will own stakes of 75% and 25% respectively in the Company, taking into account the conversion of existing redeemable preference shares that both KKR and Singtel hold in the Company.
The Consortium first invested S$1.75 billion (approximately US$1.3 billion) in STT GDC through preference shares and warrants in what marked the largest digital infrastructure investment in Southeast Asia in 2024. Since then, the Company has grown its pipeline from 1.4GW in 2024 to over 1.7GW.
Established in 2014 by ST Telemedia and headquartered in Singapore, STT GDC is one of the world’s fastest-growing and most diversified data centre platforms with 2.3GW of design capacity across 12 major markets in Asia Pacific and United Kingdom and Europe. It provides critical services including high-quality colocation, connectivity and round-the-clock support services. As demand for AI and cloud services continues to accelerate, it is fuelling the need for new data centres to drive resource-intensive workloads.
David Luboff, Co-Head of KKR Asia Pacific and Head of Asia Pacific Infrastructure at KKR, said, “Digital infrastructure remains one of the most compelling long-term investment themes globally as cloud computing and data-rich applications continue to reshape how data is created, stored, and processed. STT GDC is well-positioned within this landscape, with a diversified footprint, strong development pipeline and a leadership team with a clear vision for global scale. This transaction represents a rare opportunity to further support a high-quality platform and deepen our strategic partnership with Singtel. We look forward to deploying KKR’s global network and deep digital infrastructure expertise to help STT GDC accelerate its next phase of sustainable, international growth.”
Arthur Lang, Group Chief Financial Officer of Singtel, said, “This acquisition is a significant step towards scaling our new growth engine in digital infrastructure as mapped out in our Singtel28 growth plan. STT GDC's diverse geographical footprint increases our exposure to new markets and makes the Singtel Group a stronger data centre player with global reach. We appreciate ST Telemedia’s stewardship of the company and are confident that its seasoned leadership team will continue to scale the solid platform they have built. When added to our portfolio of data centre assets that includes Nxera in which KKR is also a capital partner, it meaningfully changes the business complexion of the Group while creating new opportunities for capital optimisation and growth. We will continue to exercise discipline in capital allocation and evaluate capital recycling alternatives to fund growth and maintain balance-sheet efficiency. Our dividend and growth plans under Singtel28 remain intact.”
Stephen Miller, President & Group CEO of ST Telemedia, said, “ST Telemedia established STT GDC 12 years ago to pioneer one of Asia Pacific’s leading data centre platforms, combined with an equally strong position in the United Kingdom and Europe through VIRTUS. We are proud of STT GDC’s market leadership and the exceptional value creation achieved by the team over that period. As the data centre sector has fundamentally shifted, its exponential trajectory now requires a different scale of capital and specialised focus for STT GDC’s next exciting phase of continued growth. As a long-term, strategic shareholder, we have steadfastly supported STT GDC’s development and transformation. This transaction demonstrates our strategic stewardship while ensuring STT GDC’s ongoing sustainable growth with an optimal partner. Finally, we extend our deep gratitude to the STT GDC management and staff for their outstanding execution and dedication over the past 12 years.”
Bruno Lopez, President & Group CEO of STT GDC, said, “Today’s announcement marks an exciting new chapter in STT GDC’s journey, building on the strong foundations established over the past 12 years. We appreciate the pivotal role of ST Telemedia in nurturing and guiding the business to the breadth and scale it is today. This expanded investment from KKR and Singtel underscores their confidence in the quality of STT GDC’s business and its growth trajectory and will further accelerate our mission to deliver the critical infrastructure powering tomorrow’s digital economy. With the consortium’s global expertise, regional networks, financial strength and, most importantly, our shared ambition, STT GDC is poised to scale rapidly and capture the next wave of significant growth in cloud and AI demand. Coupled with our proven leadership and exceptional teams across all markets, STT GDC is well-positioned to shape the future of sustainable digital infrastructure and continue delivering value to our customers, partners and employees.”
The transaction is expected to close by early second half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.
Consortium Background:
KKR is making this investment predominantly from its Asia Pacific infrastructure strategy. This marks KKR’s latest digital infrastructure investment in Southeast Asia and globally. Past investments in this region have included: Nxera, a Singapore-headquartered data centre platform serving Asia Pacific; Pinnacle Towers, a digital infrastructure platform in Asia with a focus on the Philippines; and OMS Group, a neutral subsea telecommunications cable services provider. Globally, KKR’s data centre investments have included: CyrusOne, a global data center owner and operator and Global Technical Realty, a data center platform with a focus on Europe and the UK, among others. KKR’s Asia Pacific infrastructure platform has grown to approximately US$16 billion (approximately S$20 billion) in assets under management since it was established in 2019, as of September 30, 2025.
Singtel Group is a leading provider of connectivity, digital services and digital infrastructure, with data centres a critical part of the business. In September 2023, KKR acquired a 20% stake in Nxera. The operational capacity of Nxera’s data centres in Southeast Asia is expected to more than double from over 200MW in 2026 to over 400MW in the mid-term. These data centres together with the Group’s extensive regional terrestrial fibre network, subsea cable network spanning more than 195,000 km across 30 countries, Paragon orchestration platform and RE:AI AI cloud service, form the core portfolio of its Digital InfraCo unit. This transaction is not expected to have an impact on Singtel's credit rating and dividend policy.
