Apollo posts mixed third-quarter results as fee earnings rise but adjusted EPS misses

Apollo Global Management reported third-quarter 2026 results on November 3, with adjusted earnings of $2.07 per share below the $2.22 consensus estimate. Fee-related earnings reached a record $802 million, up 23% year-over-year, while quarterly origination was $114 billion and client inflows totaled $270 billion over the last twelve months. Assets under management reached $1.074 trillion, but Apollo also reported a GAAP net loss of $1.78 per share and revenue of $4.74 billion.

The earnings miss and reported loss create a negative near-term earnings signal, while the higher fee-related earnings, origination and inflows show strength in Apollo's core asset-management operations. Apollo declared a $0.5625 per-share dividend payable November 30 to shareholders of record November 18, and its shares fell 4.16% after the results.
