Executive Summary

KKR is pleased to invite you to the Special Meeting to be held on April 21, 2026, at 11:30 A.M., E.T.

  • By no later than December 31, 2026, the “Sunset Date”, shares of our common stock will have the right to elect the Company’s directors and exercise all other customary voting rights on a one vote per share basis

Preparing for the One Share, One Vote Structure

We reviewed KKR’s existing governing documents and identified the following amendments which require a stockholder vote: (see additional details on the following page)

  1. Supermajority Voting Amendment
  2. Stockholder Action Amendment
  3. Vacancy Amendment
  4. Technical and Clarifying Amendments

We believe these Charter amendments will accomplish the following:

  • More closely align our governance practices with other S&P 500 companies with a single class of voting stock
  • Modernize and streamline our governing documents
  • Remove certain legacy partnership provisions that will no longer be appropriate after our transition to a one share, one vote model

These proposals for Charter amendments reflect our commitment to strong corporate governance that promotes managing KKR’s global investment business in a transparent, accountable, and responsible manner

> We encourage you to vote FOR each proposal. A failure to vote will be counted as a vote against these important governance changes.

Note: See Appendix for other additional information regarding the Sunset Date.

Corporate Governance Practices

The following table summarizes our key corporate governance practices, which we believe exemplify our commitment to sound governance:

Existing Governance Best Practices Expected Post-Sunset Date Additions
✓ Majority Independent Board ✓ Common stockholders entitled to one vote per share
✓ No classified Board ✓ Annual meeting of stockholders with annual election of Directors by the common stockholders
✓ 100% independent Audit Committee ✓ 100% independent Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
✓ Regular executive sessions of Independent Directors at Board meetings ✓ 100% independent Compensation Committee
✓ Annual Board self-evaluations ✓ Majority voting for election of directors with plurality carveout for contested elections
✓ Ability of stockholders to call a special meeting ✓ No supermajority vote requirements, if approved. See Proxy Statement for information about Proposal 1
✓ No poison pill ✓ Board size fixed by the Board (instead of by a controlling stockholder), if approved. See Proxy Statement for information about Proposal 4
✓ Board vacancies filled by the Board (instead of by a controlling stockholder), if approved. See Proxy Statement for information about Proposal 3

KKR


Appendix I: Additional Proposal Details


Proxy Statement - Stockholder Proposal 1: Supermajority Voting Amendment

Voting Item Description S&P 500 Prevalence Proposed Board Recommendation
Proposal 1 – Supermajority Voting Amendment • Eliminates legacy partnership 90% supermajority voting requirement to amend certain Existing Charter provisions and moves to majority voting for all Charter provisions. Over 70% FOR

The reasons for approving the Supermajority Voting Amendment include:

  • These supermajority voting provisions are a vestige of the Company's legacy partnership agreement and are not in line with a one share, one vote corporate governance structure that responds to the will of a majority of stockholders
  • We believe that a majority of the outstanding voting standard will promote efficiency and responsiveness in corporate decision-making
  • A majority vote allows the Board and stockholders to enact necessary changes to the Charter in a timely manner without being unduly delayed by the need to secure a supermajority approval, enabling the Company to act decisively without unnecessary procedural hurdles
  • We believe this approach is consistent with widely accepted governance standards

KKR


Proxy Statement - Stockholder Proposal 2: Stockholder Action Amendment

Voting Item Description S&P 500 Prevalence Proposed Board Recommendation
Proposal 2 – Stockholder Action Amendment • Provides that all actions on which holders of common stock are required or permitted to vote must be taken at an annual or special meeting, which should promote transparency and fair deliberation as opposed to stockholder action that can be taken by written consent. ~ 70% FOR

The reasons for approving the Stockholder Action Amendment include:

  • We believe that establishing stockholders’ meetings as the exclusive mechanism for stockholder action on matters on which holders of common stock are required or permitted to vote post-Sunset Date is a valuable corporate governance tool that promotes transparency, accountability, and stockholder engagement, which will ensure that major decisions are made in a transparent and deliberative manner
  • The annual and special meeting process offers important protections and advantages for stockholders that are absent from a written consent process
  • Since a written consent need not be distributed in advance to all stockholders entitled to vote on a matter, actions taken by written consent could deprive many stockholders of the critical opportunity to assess, discuss, deliberate, and vote on pending actions, which may disenfranchise those stockholders who do not have the opportunity to participate in the written consent process
  • A prohibition on action by written consent can also promote greater stockholder engagement and awareness of corporate developments
  • We believe that stockholders are more likely to review proxy materials, attend meetings, and exercise their voting rights when they know that a formal vote is required
  • This increased participation can lead to better-informed decisions and a stronger alignment between our management and our stockholders
  • We believe this approach is consistent with widely accepted governance standards

KKR


Proxy Statement - Stockholder Proposal 3: Vacancy Amendment

Voting Item Description S&P 500 Prevalence Proposed Board Recommendation
Proposal 3 – Vacancy Amendment • Grants the Board the sole authority to temporarily fill director vacancies until all stockholders have the opportunity to vote on the election of all directors at an annual meeting. Over 70% FOR

The reasons for approving the Vacancy Amendment include:

  • We believe that vesting the Board with the sole authority to fill Board vacancies is beneficial for corporate governance as it promotes stability and continuity
  • By allowing directors to appoint successors until the next re-election of directors at our annual meeting of the stockholders, the Board can maintain a strategic vision and cohesive governance structure without the potential for unnecessary disruption
  • The Board can respond swiftly to unexpected resignations, retirements, deaths or other changes in its composition, avoiding the delay or uncertainty that might arise from requiring a future stockholder vote
  • We believe the Board is also best placed to consider the overall composition and mix of directors on the Board to ensure a constructive Board room environment, subject to stockholders' oversight and approval at our annual meetings
  • We believe that the balance between Board flexibility and stockholder oversight is a core feature of good corporate governance, designed to ensure both operational efficiency and accountability
  • We believe this approach is consistent with widely accepted governance standards

KKR


Proxy Statement - Stockholder Proposal 4: Technical and Clarifying Amendments

Voting Item Description S&P 500 Prevalence Proposed Board Recommendation
Proposal 4 – Technical and Clarifying Amendments • Permits the Board to fix the size of the board of directors and to streamline the Existing Charter by removing certain legacy provisions that are redundant under current Delaware law and NYSE rules. ~85% (Board fixes its size) FOR

The reasons for approving the Technical and Clarifying Amendments include:

Fixing the Number of Directors

  • We believe that, upon the Sunset Date, this authority should reside with the Board itself so that the Board can ensure that the Company is governed by a group that is neither too large to be unwieldy nor too small to lack sufficient oversight and expertise
  • This flexibility is especially important during periods of change, when the Board may need to adjust its composition to align with new strategic priorities or to comply with evolving regulatory requirements
  • Granting the Board this authority supports continuity and stability by enabling seamless integration of new directors

Removal of the Restriction on Selling, Exchanging or Disposing of Company Assets without a Stockholder Vote

  • This is a carryover from our legacy partnership agreement and is not typically included in public company charters
  • Under Delaware law, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of outstanding stock entitled to vote is already required to approve a sale, lease, or exchange of all or substantially all of our property and assets

Removal of the Notice Requirement to Stockholders of Stock Splits, Distributions and Combinations

  • This provision is carried over from the Company's legacy partnership agreement and it is not typically included in other public company charters
  • Under the NYSE listing standards and other provisions of our Existing Charter, stockholders would already receive notice of such transactions

KKR


Proxy Statement - Stockholder Proposal 5: Adjournment of Special Meeting

Voting Item Description S&P 500 Prevalence Proposed Board Recommendation
Proposal 5 – Adjournment of Special Meeting • Authorizes adjournment for up to 30 days, from time to time, if votes are insufficient to adopt all these proposals. N/A FOR

The reasons for approving the Adjournment of Special Meeting include:

  • Allows time to solicit additional proxies if necessary
  • Increases efficiency
  • Reduces cost associated with calling another stockholders’ meeting to consider and adopt these Charter amendments

Non-GAAP and Segment Definitions

Non-GAAP and Segment Measures

The key non-GAAP and other operating and performance measures that follow are used by management in making operational and resource deployment decisions as well as in assessing the performance of KKR's business. They include certain financial measures that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP measures, including adjusted net income ("ANI"), total segment earnings, total investing earnings, total operating earnings ("TOE"), fee related earnings ("FRE"), strategic holdings operating earnings, and total asset management segment revenues, are presented prior to giving effect to the allocation of income (loss) among KKR & Co. Inc. and holders of certain securities exchangeable into shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. and, as such, represent the entire KKR business in total. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are presented without giving effect to the consolidation of the investment vehicles and collateralized financing entities ("CFEs") that KKR manages. These measures described above have the definitions given to them below.

We believe that providing these non-GAAP measures on a supplemental basis to our GAAP results is helpful to stockholders in assessing the overall performance of KKR's business. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. "Non-operating adjustments" as used in these non-GAAP definitions refers to adjustments made which are not adjustments or exclusions of normal, recurring cash operating expenses necessary for business operations. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, where applicable, are included under the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures" section of this Appendix.

We also caution readers that these non-GAAP measures may differ from the calculations made by other investment managers, and as a result, may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other investment managers.

  • Adjusted Net Income is a performance measure of KKR's earnings, which is derived from KKR's reported segment results. ANI is used to assess the performance of KKR's business operations and measures the earnings potentially available for distribution to its equity holders or reinvestment into its business. ANI is equal to Total Segment Earnings less Interest Expense, Net and Other and Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings. Interest Expense, Net and Other includes (i) interest expense on debt obligations not attributable to any particular segment and (ii) cumulative dividend expense on the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, net of interest income earned on cash and short-term investments. Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings represents the amount of income taxes that would be paid assuming that all adjusted earnings were allocated to KKR & Co. Inc. and taxed at the same effective rate, which assumes that all securities exchangeable into shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. were exchanged. The economic assumptions and methodologies that impact Income taxes on Adjusted Earnings are similar to those used in calculating the current income tax provision under U.S. GAAP. Equity based compensation expense is excluded from ANI, because (i) KKR believes that the cost of equity awards granted to employees does not contribute to the earnings potentially available for distributions to its equity holders or reinvestment into its business and (ii) excluding this expense makes KKR's reporting metric more comparable to the corresponding metric presented by other publicly traded companies in KKR's industry, which KKR believes enhances an investor's ability to compare KKR's performance to these other companies. Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings includes the benefit of tax deductions arising from equity-based compensation, which reduces Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings during the period. If tax deductions from equity-based compensation were to be excluded from Income Taxes on Adjusted Earnings, KKR's ANI would be lower and KKR's effective tax rate would appear to be higher, even though a lower amount of income taxes would have actually been paid or payable during the period. KKR separately discloses the amount of tax deduction from equity-based compensation for the period reported and the effect of its inclusion in ANI for the period. KKR makes these adjustments when calculating ANI in order to more accurately reflect the net realized earnings that are expected to be or become available for distribution to KKR's equity holders or reinvestment into KKR's business. However, ANI does not represent and is not used to calculate actual dividends under KKR's dividend policy, which is a fixed amount per period, and ANI should not be viewed as a measure of KKR's liquidity.

  • Total Segment Earnings is a performance measure that KKR believes is useful to stockholders as it provides a supplemental measure of our operating performance without taking into account items that KKR does not believe arise from or relate directly to KKR's operations. Total Segment Earnings excludes: (i) equity-based compensation charges, (ii) amortization of acquired intangibles, and (iii) transaction-related and non-operating items, if any. Transaction-related and non-operating items primarily arise from corporate actions, which consist of: (i) impairments, (ii) transaction costs from acquisitions, including any acquisition-related stock consideration, (iii) depreciation on real estate that KKR owns and occupies, (iv) contingent liabilities, net of any recoveries, (v) certain integration, restructuring, and other non-operating expenses, and (vi) other gains or charges that affect period-to-period comparability and are not reflective of KKR's ongoing operational performance. Inter-segment transactions are not eliminated from segment results when management considers those transactions in assessing the results of the respective segments. These transactions include (i) management fees earned by our Asset Management segment as the investment adviser for Global Atlantic insurance companies, (ii) management and performance fees earned by our Asset Management segment for acquiring and managing the companies included in our Strategic Holdings segment, and (iii) interest income and expense based on lending arrangements where our Asset Management segment borrows from our Insurance segment. All these inter-segment transactions are recorded by each segment based on the applicable governing agreements. Additionally, due to the integrated nature of our segment operations and as part of our strategic capital allocation decisions, intersegment asset transfers have and may continue to occur. In these cases in segment reporting, the assets are transferred at their fair value, and no realization is recognized at the time of transfer. Earnings are recognized upon realization events and transactions with third parties. Total Segment Earnings represents the total segment earnings of KKR's Asset Management, Insurance and Strategic Holdings segments.

  • Asset Management Segment Earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Asset Management segment. This measure is presented before income taxes and is comprised of: (i) Fee Related Earnings, (ii) Realized Performance Income, (iii) Realized Performance Income Compensation, (iv) Realized Investment Income, and (v) Realized Investment Income Compensation. Asset Management Segment Earnings excludes the impact of: (i) unrealized gains (losses) on investments, (ii) unrealized carried interest, and (iii) unrealized carried interest compensation. Management fees earned by KKR as the adviser, manager or sponsor for its investment funds, vehicles and accounts, including its Global Atlantic insurance companies and Strategic Holdings segment, are included in Asset Management Segment Earnings.

Non-GAAP and Segment Measures (cont'd)

  • Insurance Operating Earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Insurance segment. This measure is presented before income taxes and is comprised of: (i) Net Investment Income, (ii) Net Cost of Insurance, and (iii) General, Administrative, and Other Expenses. Insurance Operating Earnings excludes the impact of: (i) investment gains (losses) which include realized gains (losses) related to asset/liability matching investment strategies and unrealized investment gains (losses) and (ii) non-operating changes in policy liabilities and derivatives which includes (a) changes in the fair value of market risk benefits and other policy liabilities measured at fair value and related benefit payments, (b) fees attributed to guaranteed benefits, (c) derivatives used to manage the risks associated with policy liabilities, and (d) losses at contract issuance on payout annuities. Insurance Operating Earnings includes (i) realized gains and losses not related to asset/liability matching investment strategies and (ii) the investment management costs that are earned by our Asset Management segment as the investment adviser of the Global Atlantic insurance companies.

  • Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Strategic Holdings segment. This measure is presented before income taxes and is comprised of: Dividends, Net and Net Realized Investment Income. Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings excludes the impact of unrealized gains (losses) on investments. Strategic Holdings Segment Earnings includes management fees and performance fee expenses that are earned by the Asset Management segment.

  • Fee Related Earnings is a performance measure used to assess the Asset Management segment's generation of earnings from revenues that are measured and received on a more recurring basis as compared to KKR's investing earnings. KKR believes this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the profitability of our fee generating asset management and capital markets businesses. FRE equals (i) Management Fees, including fees paid by the Insurance and Strategic Holdings segments to the Asset Management segment and fees paid by Ivy vehicles and other reinsurance vehicles, (ii) Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net and (iii) Fee Related Performance Revenues, less (x) Fee Related Compensation, and (y) Other Operating Expenses.

  • Fee Related Performance Revenues refers to the realized portion of performance fees from certain AUM that has an indefinite term and for which there is no immediate requirement to return invested capital to investors upon the realization of investments. Fee related performance revenues consists of performance fees (i) expected to be received from our investment funds, vehicles and accounts on a recurring basis, and (ii) that are not dependent on a realization event involving investments held by the investment fund, vehicle or account.

  • Fee Related Compensation refers to the compensation expense, excluding equity-based compensation, paid from (i) Management Fees, (ii) Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net, and (iii) Fee Related Performance Revenues.

  • Other Operating Expenses represents the sum of (i) occupancy and related charges and (ii) other operating expenses.

  • Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings is a performance measure used to assess the firm's earnings from companies and businesses reported through its Strategic Holdings segment. Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings currently consists of earnings derived from dividends that the firm receives from businesses acquired through the firm's participation in our core private equity strategy. Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings currently equals dividends less management fees that are earned by our Asset Management segment. This measure is used by management to assess the Strategic Holdings segment's generation of earnings from revenues that are measured and received on a more recurring basis than, and are not dependent on, realizations from investment activities.

  • Total Operating Earnings is a performance measure that represents the sum of (i) FRE, (ii) Insurance Operating Earnings, and (iii) Strategic Holdings Operating Earnings. KKR believes this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the profitability of the most recurring forms of earnings from each of KKR's segments as compared to investing earnings.

  • Total Investing Earnings is a performance measure that represents the sum of (i) Net Realized Performance Income and (ii) Net Realized Investment Income. KKR believes this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the earnings of KKR's segments from the realization of investments.

  • Total Asset Management Segment Revenues is a performance measure that represents the realized revenues of the Asset Management segment (which excludes unrealized carried interest and unrealized gains (losses) on investments) and is the sum of (i) Management Fees, (ii) Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net, (iii) Fee Related Performance Revenues, (iv) Realized Performance Income, and (v) Realized Investment Income. Asset Management Segment Revenues excludes Realized Investment Income earned based on the performance of businesses presented in the Strategic Holdings segment. KKR believes that this performance measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into all forms of realized revenues generated by our Asset Management segment.

Other Operating and Capital Metrics

  • Adjusted shares represents shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. outstanding under GAAP adjusted to include certain vested securities exchangeable into shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. Adjusted shares excludes the potential dilutive impact of: (i) any conversion of the Series D Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and (ii) unvested shares of common stock and exchangeable securities.

Non-GAAP and Segment Definitions (cont'd)

Other Operating and Capital Metrics (cont'd)

  • Assets Under Management ("AUM") represent the assets managed (including core private equity), advised or sponsored by KKR from which KKR is entitled to receive management fees or performance income (currently or upon a future event), general partner capital, and assets managed, advised or sponsored by our strategic BDC partnership and the hedge fund and other managers in which KKR holds an ownership interest. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the capital raising activities of KKR and its hedge fund and other managers and the overall activity in their investment funds and other managed or sponsored capital. KKR calculates the amount of AUM as of any date as the sum of: (i) the fair value of the investments of KKR's investment funds and certain co-investment vehicles; (ii) uncalled capital commitments from these funds, including uncalled capital commitments from which KKR is currently not earning management fees or performance income; (iii) the asset value of the Global Atlantic insurance companies; (iv) the par value of outstanding CLOs; (v) KKR's pro rata portion of the AUM of hedge fund and other managers in which KKR holds an ownership interest; (vi) all of the AUM of KKR's strategic BDC partnership; (vii) the acquisition cost of invested assets of certain non-US real estate investment trusts and (viii) the value of other assets managed or sponsored by KKR. The pro rata portion of the AUM of hedge fund and other managers is calculated based on KKR's percentage ownership interest in such entities multiplied by such entity's respective AUM. KKR's definition of AUM (i) is not based on any definition of AUM that may be set forth in the governing documents of the investment funds, vehicles, accounts or other entities whose capital is included in this definition, (ii) includes assets for which KKR does not act as an investment adviser, and (iii) is not calculated pursuant to any regulatory definitions.

  • Perpetual capital refers to a component of AUM that has an indefinite term and for which there is no predetermined requirement to return invested capital to investors upon the realization of investments. Perpetual capital includes the AUM of our registered funds, certain unregistered vehicles, listed companies, and insurance companies, and it excludes our traditional private equity funds, similarly structured investment funds, collateralized loan obligations, hedge fund partnerships and certain other investment vehicles. Investors should not view this component of our AUM as being permanent without exception, because it can be subject to material reductions and even termination. Perpetual capital is subject to material reductions from changes in valuation and withdrawals by or payments to investors, clients and policyholders (including through elections by investors to redeem their fund investments, periodic dividends, and payment obligations under insurance policies and reinsurance agreements) as well as termination by a client of, or failure to renew, its investment management agreement with KKR.
