Analysis

Blue Owl ended the second quarter of 2026 with $319.0 billion of AUM, up 12% since June 30, 2025. Fee-Paying Assets Under Management reached $190.6 billion, up 7%, while Permanent Capital was $225.0 billion, up 10%. The disclosed figures show continuing asset-base expansion across the company’s permanent-capital-oriented platform.

The period produced $392.2 million of non-GAAP Fee-Related Earnings, or $0.25 per Adjusted Share, and $351.2 million of non-GAAP Distributable Earnings, or $0.22 per Adjusted Share. GAAP Net Income was $11.4 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted Class A Share. The supplied excerpt does not provide total revenue, operating expenses, tax expense, or a reconciliation detail needed to explain the difference between GAAP and non-GAAP earnings measures.

Fundraising and deployment were notable. Blue Owl raised $7.8 billion of New Capital Commitments, including $7.6 billion of new equity capital, and reported $5.3 billion of FPAUM Raised and Deployed in the quarter. AUM Not Yet Paying Fees totaled $31.1 billion and was described as reflecting approximately $380 million of expected annual FRE management fees once deployed, making conversion of that asset base a key reported earnings lever.

AlphAI analysis generated from the company’s SEC earnings filing (Form 8-K Item 2.02, or Form 6-K for a foreign private issuer). Every figure was cross-checked against the filing text; consensus estimates, price targets and share-price reactions are not shown because they are not in the filing.

Questions about OWL earnings dates

When is Blue Owl Capital's next earnings date?
AlphAI has no confirmed date for OWL yet. We publish an earnings date only once the company has set it, so this page shows one the day that happens.
Where does the date come from, and why is there no estimate?
A confirmed date comes from the company's own announcement. Many sites fill the gap by adding about 91 days to the last report, but that arithmetic is a guess, and a wrong date costs a reader more than a missing one, so AlphAI shows nothing until the company confirms. Every quarter already on this page is read straight from the SEC filing: an 8-K item 2.02 for US filers, a 6-K earnings release for foreign private issuers.
