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.
