NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
Wall Street expects flat earnings compared to the year-ago quarter on higher revenues when Blue Owl Capital Inc. (OWL - Free Report) reports results for the quarter ended June 2026. While this widely-known consensus outlook is important in gauging the company's earnings picture, a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price is how the actual results compare to these estimates.
The earnings report, which is expected to be released on July 30, might help the stock move higher if these key numbers are better than expectations. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower.
While the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's discussion of business conditions on the earnings call, it's worth handicapping the probability of a positive EPS surprise.
Zacks Consensus EstimateThis company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.21 per share in its upcoming report, which represents no change from the year-ago quarter.
Revenues are expected to be $687.25 million, up 6.4% from the year-ago quarter.
Estimate Revisions TrendThe consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 0.75% lower over the last 30 days to the current level. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period.
Investors should keep in mind that the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts may not always get reflected in the aggregate change.
Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Earnings WhisperEstimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. This insight is at the core of our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction).
The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier.
Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model's predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only.
A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP.
Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell).
How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for Blue Owl Capital?For Blue Owl Capital, the Most Accurate Estimate is lower than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that analysts have recently become bearish on the company's earnings prospects. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of -0.61%.
On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #4.
So, this combination makes it difficult to conclusively predict that Blue Owl Capital will beat the consensus EPS estimate.
Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue?While calculating estimates for a company's future earnings, analysts often consider to what extent it has been able to match past consensus estimates. So, it's worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number.
For the last reported quarter, it was expected that Blue Owl Capital would post earnings of $0.19 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.19, delivering no surprise.
Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates just once.
Bottom LineAn earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss.
That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success. This is why it's worth checking a company's Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank ahead of its quarterly release. Make sure to utilize our Earnings ESP Filter to uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they've reported.
Blue Owl Capital doesn't appear a compelling earnings-beat candidate. However, investors should pay attention to other factors too for betting on this stock or staying away from it ahead of its earnings release.

The new venture will help develop advanced conduit and high-count fiber infrastructure to support the rapid
expansion of hyperscale data centers & next-generation connectivity across the United States
, /PRNewswire/ -- Funds managed by Blue Owl Capital Inc. ("Blue Owl") (NYSE: OWL), a leading alternative asset manager, today announced the launch of Kirkwood Infrastructure Group ("Kirkwood IG"), a wholly owned developer and operator of next-generation communications infrastructure supporting the continued digital transformation of the United States.
Kirkwood IG serves hyperscale customers, data center operators, communications carriers, and local communities by developing, owning, and operating advanced conduit, high-count fiber optic cable, and related communications infrastructure assets. The platform supports the growing demand for connectivity driven by data centers, next generation compute, cloud, and other bandwidth-intensive use cases.
Kirkwood IG will be led by a senior management team of experienced industry executives, including Scott Bergs, Chief Executive Officer; Tim Leighton, Chief Financial Officer; Mike Sevret, Chief Commercial Officer; Chris Pancione, Chief Network Development Officer; and Jason Cohen, Chief Network Operations Officer. Together the leadership team brings decades of combined experience developing and commercializing next-generation network infrastructure, including the successful deployment and commercialization of more than 600 miles of network in the last five years. This includes current and prior Blue Owl-backed fiber development platforms, such as Dark Fiber & Infrastructure (exited) and South Reach Networks ("SRN"). The company will also benefit from the support of Blue Owl-appointed board members Chris Jensen, Luke Gilpin, and Aaron Small.
Kirkwood IG has integrated operations of Florida-based SRN, including its nearly 400 miles of network and 40 near-net and on-net data centers and key subsea cable landing stations. In addition, Kirkwood IG is constructing over 200 miles of conduit and high-capacity fiber cable across Louisiana and Mississippi, spanning from Shreveport to Vicksburg, to support the significant growth of hyperscale data center development in the region.
Scott Bergs, CEO of Kirkwood IG, said, "The digital infrastructure buildout in the U.S. is just beginning, and while a new company, our team has a tremendous track record of deploying industry-leading network infrastructure that enables the next wave of compute requirements and digital transformation. We are excited to continue our hyperscale expansion work alongside Blue Owl and we look forward to expanding our impact together."
With the support of the Blue Owl Digital Infrastructure strategy, Kirkwood IG intends to expand into new markets alongside key data center development partners whose projects push into new regions across the United States. Kirkwood IG will operate independently of Blue Owl's investment in Gigabit Fiber LLC, a leading Texas-based fiber optic infrastructure provider.
Chris Jensen, Managing Director, Digital Infrastructure at Blue Owl, added, "We are thrilled to work with the Kirkwood IG team as they enter this next chapter of growth. The Southeast is a region of incredible opportunity and rapid growth for our hyperscale customers, and we look forward to leveraging Kirkwood IG's proven network development capabilities to unlock new data center markets, accelerate critical infrastructure deployment, and support customer growth across the Southeast and beyond."

Blue Owl Capital has been hammered by fears of AI-driven loan disruption and a private-credit "liquidity mismatch." However, it just showed green shoots that its nightmarish start to 2026 may soon be over. I provide a detailed update on my OWL investment thesis.
Investors sought to withdraw less money from two of Blue Owl Capital's flagship private-credit funds in the second quarter, providing early signs that redemption pressures across the sector may be beginning to moderate after months of elevated withdrawals.
The New York-based alternative asset manager said investors requested withdrawals totaling $4.7 billion during the quarter, down from $5.4 billion in the previous three months.
The easing in withdrawal requests was welcomed by investors, with Blue Owl OWL shares rising by nearly 5% in Thursday trading.
The figures come as private-credit managers continue to grapple with heightened redemption activity following several high-profile borrower defaults last year that sparked concerns over the health of private-credit portfolios.
Blue Owl's stock has fallen by over 40% this year.
Redemptions remain above payout limitsWithdrawal requests declined across both of Blue Owl's largest non-traded business development companies, though they remained substantially above the quarterly redemption limits built into the funds.
At the $33.8 billion Blue Owl Credit Income Corp (OCIC), investors requested to redeem 18.8% of outstanding shares during the quarter, down from 21.9% in the first quarter.
The firm's technology-focused Blue Owl Technology Income Corp (OTIC), which manages $4.9 billion in assets, also recorded lower withdrawal requests.
Investors sought to redeem 38.1% of shares during the quarter compared with 40.7% in the previous period.
Like many non-traded private-credit vehicles, both funds limit quarterly repurchases to 5% of outstanding shares.
The mechanism is designed to avoid forcing managers to sell relatively illiquid corporate loans to meet investor withdrawals.
Blue Owl said roughly 90% of investors in OCIC remained invested, while the group of shareholders requesting redemptions was largely unchanged from previous quarters, with little participation from new investors.
Although redemption requests remain elevated, analysts believe recent trends suggest withdrawal activity may be nearing its peak.
Market participants still expect requests to stay above the 5% quarterly threshold for several more quarters, but some Wall Street analysts argue that the gradual moderation seen in the second quarter points to improving investor confidence.
"We believe OCIC's strong performance over the past three months has reflected the quality of portfolio fundamentals and contributed to improved investor sentiment," Blue Owl executives Craig Packer and Logan Nicholson said in a letter to shareholders.
The firm also said borrower fundamentals remained healthy, adding that "credit quality remained resilient," supported by solid operating performance across its portfolio companies.
Blue Owl said it was encouraged by the modest quarter-over-quarter decline in tender requests, attributing the improvement partly to the funds' recent performance.
Private credit remains under scrutinyBlue Owl has become one of the industry's most closely watched firms because it was among the earliest alternative asset managers to successfully market private-credit products to wealthy individual investors.
That strategy helped the firm rapidly expand assets under management to roughly $300 billion, but it has also made the company particularly exposed to swings in retail investor sentiment.
Persistent redemption requests have raised concerns that slower asset growth and capped withdrawals could weigh on fee income if investor demand remains subdued.
Pressure has not been limited to Blue Owl.
Several large private-credit managers, including Ares Management, Blackstone and BlackRock, have also experienced higher redemption activity in recent quarters, weighing on their share prices.
Investor concerns intensified in late June after withdrawals from a major Apollo Global Management private-credit fund climbed to 17% of assets from 11% in the previous quarter.
Executives across the industry have maintained that concerns surrounding private credit are exaggerated, though many acknowledge that elevated redemption activity is likely to continue in the near term.
Blue Owl said its largest credit fund remains well positioned to meet future redemption requests.
The company reported that OCIC holds $11.6 billion in cash, cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity, enough to fund approximately 12 quarters of payouts at the current 5% quarterly redemption limit.
While withdrawal requests remain well above the level funds are willing to meet each quarter, the latest figures suggest investors may be becoming more comfortable with private-credit portfolios after a turbulent period for the industry.
Blue Owl Capital faced higher June-quarter redemption requests than peers, but there was some good news: Exit requests at Blue Owl declined from March quarter levels.
, /PRNewswire/ -- Blue Owl Capital Inc. ("Blue Owl") (NYSE: OWL), a leading alternative asset manager, today announced that funds managed by Blue Owl have successfully completed the previously announced acquisition of Sila Realty Trust, Inc. ("Sila" or "the Company"), a net lease real estate investment trust with a strategic focus on investing in the growing and resilient healthcare sector.
"The acquisition of Sila and its differentiated, scaled portfolio of high-quality healthcare assets with strong tenants and well-structured long-term leases will further expand Blue Owl's core net lease strategy," said Marc Zahr, Co-President and Global Head of Real Assets at Blue Owl. "This transaction builds on the firm's experience investing across the healthcare landscape and represents an opportunity to capitalize on the strong supply and demand fundamentals in the healthcare real estate sector while delivering compelling value for investors and the communities these facilities serve."
At Sila's Special Meeting of Stockholders held on June 26, 2026, more than 98% of votes were cast in favor of approving the merger agreement. Upon closing of the transaction, Sila's common stock ceased trading and will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange, and Sila's common stockholders received $30.38 per share in cash, representing an approximately 19% premium over the closing share price on April 17, 2026, the last full trading day prior to the transaction announcement.
The completion of the transaction marks an important milestone for Blue Owl's Real Assets platform and reflects the firm's continued focus on expanding its presence across essential real estate sectors. As part of Blue Owl's Real Assets platform, the Sila portfolio will benefit from the firm's institutional scale, investment expertise and long-standing relationships across the real estate market, creating a strong foundation for continued growth and long-term value creation.

Strategic acquisition adds critical network density and route diversity across Northern Virginia and Maryland, reinforcing SummitIG's position as the leading digital connectivity partner
, /PRNewswire/ -- SummitIG, the premier pure-play dark fiber provider with unmatched network quality and scale for data center connectivity solutions, today announced it has completed the acquisition of Dark Fiber and Infrastructure, LLC ("DF&I") from funds managed by Blue Owl Capital Inc. ("Blue Owl") (NYSE: OWL), a leading alternative asset manager. SDC Capital Partners, LLC ("SDC"), a leading digital infrastructure investment firm, has been the majority owner of SummitIG since 2019.
The move further solidifies SummitIG's position as the definitive market leader for dark fiber infrastructure across Virginia and broadens its strategic reach into the burgeoning Maryland market.
Complementing SummitIG's existing footprint of over 1,100 miles of robust, high-capacity dark fiber infrastructure in Virginia, the acquisition integrates nearly 200 miles of DF&I's conduit and dark fiber assets into SummitIG's expansive platform. The newly combined footprint provides customers with unparalleled route diversity and density in Virginia and connects nearly 60 miles of distinct network into Maryland, stretching to Baltimore.
"As a leading infrastructure provider of dense, purpose-built dark fiber networks, SummitIG has established a strong track record of execution, and this acquisition represents a significant milestone in our strategy to expand and strengthen our platform in the markets that matter most to our customers," said Sunny Kumar, CEO of SummitIG. "By integrating DF&I's complementary network into our existing broad footprint, we are giving hyperscalers, carriers and large enterprises greater flexibility, deeper route diversity and the additional capacity required to support the next generation of cloud and AI workloads. We are hitting the ground running to ensure a seamless transition and unlock new opportunities for our combined customer base."
This transaction comes during a period of significant growth for SummitIG, with rapid expansion ongoing across five core domestic markets and the recent establishment of SierraIG, a strategic joint venture extending its infrastructure capabilities into Mexico.
"As global demand for cloud computing and next-generation infrastructure accelerates, specialized digital infrastructure assets have never been more critical," said Chris Jensen, Managing Director, Digital Infrastructure at Blue Owl. "We are incredibly proud of the scaled platform we built alongside DF&I's leadership over the last six years. SummitIG is the ideal successor to take these assets forward, and we are confident that their operational expertise and market momentum will drive continued success and infrastructure excellence across the region."
DF&I was previously a portfolio company of the Blue Owl Digital Infrastructure platform, which supported the company's regional buildout and grew the network's reach sixfold over a six-year period. SummitIG is executing a comprehensive integration plan to seamlessly transition customers, operations and network asset information, while completing any remaining active construction projects to ensure continuity for current contract commitments.
Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP served as legal advisor to SummitIG for the transaction. Bank Street Group served as exclusive financial advisor and Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP served as legal advisor to DF&I in connection with this transaction.

The most attractive feature of Ares Capital (ARCC +1.76%) today is probably its huge 10.5% dividend yield. However, investors need to fully understand what supports that lofty yield before buying this stock. And recognize that the dividend has been cut before. Here's why the test the private credit markets are facing is so important for Ares Capital right now.
The difference between Ares Capital and a non-public credit fund Ares Capital issues shares to the public, and those shares will continue to exist until it repurchases them. In this way, the business development company (BDC) has permanent capital. The stock price may rise and fall, but nobody can force Ares Capital to return their cash. That's an important dynamic as you watch non-public private credit funds limit redemptions.
Image source: Getty Images.
Companies like BlackRock (BLK 1.47%) and Blue Owl Capital (OWL 0.58%) have been making headlines as customers who can withdraw cash from the private credit funds they operate ask for their money back. If withdrawals are large enough, non-public private credit funds can be forced to sell assets to meet redemption requests. That can trigger a downward spiral in asset prices.
The ability to limit redemptions is supposed to help prevent that spiral. However, the news that redemptions are being limited can have the unintended consequence of increasing fear and, in turn, the number of customers requesting a return of their cash.
Ares Capital's portfolio is holding up reasonably well Despite the withdrawals from private credit funds, Ares Capital's portfolio is performing reasonably well. Loans on non-accrual status sat at 2.1% at the end of the first quarter of 2026. That was up from 1.8%, which isn't good news directionally, but the absolute level is still reasonable. The BDC's core earnings of $0.47 per share didn't cover the $0.48 per share paid in dividends, but when you add in $0.15 per share in realized gains, there was ample coverage.

That said, interest rates appear likely to remain at current levels or rise. Ares Capital issues many floating-rate loans to the largely smaller businesses it works with, so it will generate more income as rates rise. But higher rates can make it harder for its clients to pay back their loans, so dividend investors will want to pay close attention to its non-accrual loan rate. If that rate rises too high, a dividend cut could be in the cards.
Moreover, while the redemptions hitting companies like BlackRock aren't necessarily indicative of the quality of private credit loans, investors are clearly worried that loan quality is deteriorating. That isn't shocking, given the huge growth of the private credit market in recent years. As more and more capital enters the market, weaker and weaker loans are likely to be made. If you own Ares Capital, there's no reason to panic, but redemptions at BlackRock and Blue Owl Capital could still be the canary in the coal mine on the loan quality front.

The dividend reset to $0.31 aligns the payout with recurring NII, enhancing sustainability despite recent cuts driven by rate compression.

Blue Owl Capital remains a hold as macro uncertainty and tight dividend coverage offset improved liquidity and leverage. OBDC trades at a 22.5% discount to NAV and offers an 11% forward dividend yield after a recent 16% dividend cut. Leverage improved to 1.13x, non-accruals declined, and Moody's upgraded OBDC to Baa2, enhancing balance sheet strength.
Targa Resources (TRGP) and Blue Owl Capital (OWL) are top TOLL picks, offering differentiated income and growth amid market disruption. TRGP delivers robust total return potential, leveraging irreplaceable Permian Basin assets, high margin scalability, and a five-year dividend CAGR of 60%. OWL offers a 9%+ yield, substantial fee-based income from $315B AUM, and trades at a deep valuation discount despite recent sector pressures.
Blue Owl Capital Corp. trades at a deep discount to NAV, offering an 11% dividend yield and substantial upside potential. OBDC's credit risks remain contained, with only 2% of investments on non-accrual and $4 billion in excess liquidity for future opportunities. The dividend was cut to $0.31 but is supplemented by payouts tied to actual NII, aligning distributions with income rather than stability.

Blue Owl Capital is rated Buy, trading at a steep discount despite robust growth in fee-related earnings and AUM. OWL's recurring management fees, primarily from permanent capital, drive predictable earnings and support a well-covered dividend. Real assets, especially data center buildouts with partners like Meta, are a key growth engine, offsetting concerns in the Credit Platform.
SummaryOWL is deeply undervalued after a 58% crash.The market is afraid of AI disruption and worse inflows.But OWL's portfolio has expanded from 3 to 8 segments in 4 years, with digital infrastructure now 6% of AUM and strong inflows continuing.I believe OWL will be one of the AI's beneficiaries, not its victim.I think OWL is undervalued, and its business stance is much stronger than it seems. That's why I consider it a once-in-a-decade opportunity. peshkov/iStock via Getty Images

Blue Owl Capital is downgraded to a sell due to persistent earnings declines, thin dividend coverage, and limited new investment activity. OBDC trades at a steep 22.5% discount to NAV, yet lacks near-term growth catalysts and faces ongoing NAV deterioration. The portfolio's heavy software exposure and elevated risk from AI disruption raise concerns about future non-accruals and earnings stability.
The firm is selling five-year notes with "an initial price guidance of approximately 260 basis points over Treasuries," Bloomberg reported.
The fund, called OBDC, is a specialty finance and business development company that provides direct lending solutions to U.S. middle-market companies, according to the company’s website.
Bookrunners for the offering include Goldman Sachs Group, RBC Capital Markets, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Deutsche Bank AG, TD Securities and Morgan Stanley.
OBDC will use proceeds from the latest bond sale to repay existing debt, which could include a revolving credit facility or bonds due in July.
Last month, Blue Owl Capital raised $400 million from bond investors, following several months of ripples in the private credit market.
Pacific Investment Management Co. (PIMCO) fully subscribed to the $400 million bond offering. The investment-grade bonds carry a 6.4% yield and are set to mature in September 2028, according to an SEC filing.
The deal came amid a market downturn that has driven spreads on comparable fund debt to their highest levels in years.
The widening has been fueled in part by worries about underwriting quality and the sector’s exposure to software firms that could be disrupted by advances in artificial intelligence.

Blue Owl Capital Inc. is trading near 52-week lows, yet recent quarterly results show robust fee-related and distributable earnings growth. OWL's fee structure, driven by AUM-based management fees, insulates it from BDC-specific credit headwinds and dividend cuts impacting OBDC shareholders. The SpaceX stake provides a significant performance income hedge, with realized and potential mark-ups offering incremental distributable earnings upside.

Key Takeaways OWL trades at 10.67X forward earnings vs. the industry at 13.56X, showing near-term private-credit friction.OWL raised $42B in 2025 and $11B in Q1 2026, with 2026 fundraising expected to look similar to 2025.OWL has $29.9B not yet paying fees, expected to become nearly $349M in annualized fees, but over 12-24 months. Blue Owl Capital Inc. (OWL - Free Report) is priced for a “prove it” stretch. The shares recently traded around $10, and the long-term stance for the stock is Neutral.
That setup reflects mixed signals. Blue Owl has multiple growth lanes that can expand fee sources, but near-term headwinds in private-credit liquidity, capital deployment timing, and expenses can keep sentiment choppy.
OWL Trades Below Key Benchmarks on Forward EarningsOWL trades at 10.67X forward 12-month earnings. That is below the industry at 13.56X.
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
The discount suggests the market is not simply paying for scaled alternative-asset exposure. Investors appear to be weighing near-term friction in private credit and the risk that fee growth does not arrive as smoothly as embedded capital pools imply.
The valuation framework also shows how expectations are being set. The $10.75 price target corresponds to 11.56X forward 12-month earnings, modestly above the current multiple but still well below the broader benchmarks.
Blue Owl’s Growth Drivers Still Look DurableFundraising scale remains a core support for OWL. The company raised $42 billion in 2025, up from $27.5 billion in 2024 and $15.4 billion in 2023. Momentum carried into the first quarter of 2026 with $11 billion raised, and management expects 2026 fundraising to look similar to 2025.
Product breadth is widening the fee engine. Management is advancing newer strategies in digital infrastructure, net lease, and alternative credit. The mix of flagship closes and evergreen wealth products is positioned to keep fundraising durable across channels.
That feeds an organic growth narrative that has already been visible in earnings quality. Fee-Related Earnings revenues posted a 31% compound annual growth rate from 2021 to 2025, supported by diversification beyond direct lending and exposure to secular themes in infrastructure and artificial intelligence. The uptrend continued in the first quarter of 2026.
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
OWL’s Fee Ramp Depends on Deployment TimingA key swing factor is the pool of capital that is committed but not yet paying fees. As of March 31, 2026, AUM not yet paying fees totaled $29.9 billion, which Blue OWL expects would translate into about $349 million of annualized management fees once deployed.
The issue is timing. The company expects deployment to play out over roughly the next 12 to 24 months, but the cadence can vary by strategy and market conditions. Any elongation in deal closings can delay when those fees show up in results.
Muted sponsor merger and acquisition activity is part of the near-term constraint, and a back-half clustering of deployment would push fee recognition out. That dynamic can cap near-term upside even if the longer-run fee base is building.
Blue Owl Faces Redemption and Liquidity FrictionLiquidity and sentiment in private credit remain the most important near-term risk, especially in retail-oriented vehicles. Toward the end of 2025, non-traded business development companies saw slower flows and elevated redemption requests.
Blue Owl took actions to manage withdrawals and liquidity needs. In February, the firm restricted withdrawals at OBDC II after requests hit a 5% threshold and sold assets across affiliated funds to meet liquidity needs.
Redemption pressure also showed up in first-quarter 2026 disclosures. Management cited net outflows of roughly $170 million from OCIC and OTIC, while redemptions from non-traded business development companies were about $1.2 billion. If redemption activity persists or broadens, it can weigh on fundraising and fee growth.
OWL’s Credit Quality Monitoring Is a MustCredit quality is a watch item for OWL, with particular attention on software and artificial intelligence-adjacent borrower exposure. Investors are becoming more cautious toward mid-sized technology companies where earnings durability and cash-flow visibility can be harder to assess.
The first-quarter 2026 insights were constructive on near-term indicators. Key direct lending measures such as the watch list, nonaccruals, amendment requests, and revolver draws did not show meaningful adverse movement, and the average annual loss rate remains 12 basis points.
Even so, monitoring needs to stay active. Spreads have begun to widen, and public company volatility can tighten equity cushions over time. A sustained macro slowdown could still translate into higher downgrade risk and more restructuring activity.
Blue Owl’s Expense Trajectory Can Swing the StoryBlue Owl is investing in distribution and product build-out, and expenses have been trending higher over time. Total expenses recorded a 2021-2025 compound annual growth rate of 8.4%, and expenses remained elevated in the first quarter of 2026.
In that quarter, total GAAP expenses rose 6% year over year to $644.3 million, driven by higher compensation and benefits costs. Management expects expenses to remain elevated due to steady franchise investments and higher revenue-related compensation costs.
For investors, the message is straightforward. The margin outlook improves if revenue growth outpaces expense growth as planned, including the expected 2026 FRE margin of 58.5% versus 58.3% in 2025. If that relationship flips, the valuation discount can persist.
OWL’s Bottom Line: What Would Change the ViewThe long-term Neutral stance fit the Blue Owl stock with clear growth avenues and real near-term friction. A decision-focused checklist starts with fundraising pace and the mix between flagship closes and evergreen wealth products.
Next, watch net flows and redemption activity, particularly across retail-oriented private-credit vehicles, along with any further steps taken to manage liquidity.
Finally, track the deployment cadence of fee-eligible AUM, signs of credit stress in direct lending indicators, and whether estimate revisions stabilize after recent downward changes noted for 2026 and 2027.

In the meantime, OWL’s larger peers like Apollo Global Management (APO - Free Report) and Blackstone Inc. (BX - Free Report) can be useful reference points for how investors price alternative managers when flows and deployment momentum are strong compared with when liquidity concerns rise. Similar to Blue Owl, both Apollo Global and Blackstone witnessed higher-than-normal redemption requests in some of their flagship funds during the first quarter.
Key Takeaways OWL generated almost 85% of management fees from Permanent Capital over the 12 months ended Mar. 31, 2026.OWL had $314.9B AUM and $188.4B fee-paying AUM as of Mar. 31, 2026, closing the gap drives fees.OWL expects $29.9B non-fee-paying AUM to add nearly $349M annualized fees over the next 12-24 months. Blue Owl Capital Inc.

OWL’s investment case often comes down to how durable its fee base is and how quickly non-fee-paying capital converts into fee-paying assets. Those two drivers shape the company’s revenue visibility, margins, and sentiment in both calm and volatile markets.
Overview of OWL’s Business ModelBlue Owl’s business model is anchored by Permanent Capital vehicles and long-dated funds designed to support earnings stability and predictable fee streams, with management fees as the primary revenue source. Over the last twelve months ended March 31, 2026, about 85% of GAAP and Fee-Related Earnings management fees were generated by Permanent Capital.
As of March 31, 2026, total assets under management were $314.9 billion, while fee-paying assets under management were $188.4 billion. That gap matters because capital that is not yet paying fees can become a future fee stream as it is deployed or transitions into fee-paying structures.
OWL’s Platform Mix Shapes Revenue StabilityBlue Owl operates three platforms that diversify strategies and client types. The Credit platform had $159.2 billion of assets under management as of March 31, 2026, and provides direct lending and other credit solutions, including alternative and investment-grade credit and liquid credit strategies. The Real Assets platform had $85.1 billion of assets under management and focuses on net lease real estate, real estate credit, and digital infrastructure.
The GP Strategic Capital platform had $70.6 billion of assets under management and provides capital solutions to private capital managers through minority stakes, GP financing, and select investments in professional sports ownership vehicles.
This mix supports steadier fee growth as it broadens the fee base across multiple engines rather than relying on one lending or fundraising cycle.

Blue Owl’s Permanent Capital Is the Core AnchorPermanent Capital is a core anchor for fee visibility because it is long-duration by design and tends to be less sensitive to short-term fundraising shifts. Blue Owl had $224.8 billion of Permanent Capital as of March 31, 2026. The concentration of management fees tied to Permanent Capital is a key reason the company frames its revenue model as predictable.
That stability can be especially valuable when volatility changes credit spreads and equity cushions. Management highlighted that direct lending indicators such as watch list, nonaccruals, amendment requests, and revolver draws did not show meaningful adverse movement in the first quarter of 2026, though borrower quality remains a focus in tech and software exposures.
OWL Has Embedded Fee Growth From Undeployed AUMA key near-term catalyst is deployment. As of March 31, 2026, assets under management not yet paying fees totaled $29.9 billion. Management expects that capital, once deployed, will translate into about $349 million of annualized management fees and provide about 14% embedded growth off 2025 management fees.
The timing is not uniform. Deployment is expected to play out over roughly the next 12 to 24 months, and the cadence can vary by strategy and market conditions. Slower deal closings, muted sponsor activity, or back-half clustering can push fee recognition out.
Blue Owl’s Fundraising Engine Spans Institutions and WealthFundraising has been a multi-year growth driver. Blue Owl raised $42 billion in 2025, up from $27.5 billion in 2024 and $15.4 billion in 2023, supported by differentiated products, a broader offering, and scaled distribution. Momentum continued in the first quarter of 2026 with $11 billion raised.
Management expects 2026 fundraising to look broadly similar to 2025, supported by Net Lease VII and GP Stakes VI “wrapping up” in the second half of 2026 and Digital Infrastructure Fund IV returning to market in 2026. Continued scaling of evergreen wealth products is positioned as another durability driver.
OWL’s Q1 2026 Print Shows Higher Revenue, Higher CostsFirst-quarter 2026 distributable earnings per share were 19 cents, matching the Zacks Consensus Estimate and up 12% year over year. Total GAAP revenues rose 10% to $753.8 million, driven by higher management fees along with administrative, transaction, and other fees.
Expenses moved higher as well. Total GAAP expenses increased 6% to $644.3 million, primarily due to higher compensation and benefits costs. For 2026, management expects a Fee-Related Earnings margin of 58.5%, up modestly from 58.3% in 2025, with operating priorities centered on revenue growth outpacing expenses.
Blue Owl’s Key Watch Items: Liquidity, Credit, ExpensesLiquidity in semi-liquid private credit products is a swing factor. Toward the end of 2025, non-traded business development companies saw slower flows and elevated redemption requests, and Blue Owl restricted withdrawals at OBDC II after requests hit a 5% threshold and sold assets across affiliated funds to meet liquidity needs. In the first quarter of 2026, management cited net outflows of about $170 million from OCIC and OTIC, while redemptions from non-traded business development companies were about $1.2 billion.
Credit quality and expenses also matter. Concerns around software and AI-adjacent borrowers have risen, even as the company noted stable direct lending indicators and an average annual loss rate of 12 basis points. Investors can also benchmark expense discipline against continued investment in distribution and product build-out.
Over the past three months, shares of OWL have lost 7% against the industry’s rally of 2.3%.

In the broader alternative asset manager landscape, peers such as Apollo Global Management Inc. (APO - Free Report) and Blackstone Inc. (BX - Free Report) can influence sentiment around fundraising and fee multiples. For OWL, quarter-to-quarter monitoring tends to come back to redemption trends, deployment progress, and whether revenue growth continues to stay ahead of compensation-driven cost pressure.
Like Blue Owl, Apollo and Blackstone also faced higher redemption requests in some of their flagship funds. However, both alternative asset managers reported solid quarterly performance on the back of higher fundraising in other avenues. At present, Apollo and Blackstone also carry a Zacks Rank #4.
Key Takeaways OWL is expanding beyond direct lending into digital infrastructure, net lease and alternative credit.OWL raised $42B in 2025 and $11B in Q1 2026, with Digital Infrastructure Fund IV returning this year.OWL has $29.9B AUM not paying fees, targeting $349M annualized fees, amid redemptions and tech credit risks. Blue Owl’s (OWL - Free Report) investment case is increasingly tied to an emerging-trends playbook: broaden fee sources beyond direct lending by leaning into strategies linked to long-duration secular demand. Management is pushing newer offerings in digital infrastructure, net lease and alternative credit as it scales fundraising across both institutional and private wealth channels.
The setup matters because OWL’s model is anchored by permanent capital and long-dated vehicles that can support steadier management-fee streams as new strategies mature.
OWL’s Strategy Shift Broadens Beyond Direct LendingBlue Owl has been building a wider platform across credit, real assets and GP Strategic Capital. The real assets business includes net lease real estate, real estate credit and digital infrastructure, positioning the company to partner with tenants and operators on mission-critical assets.
Diversification has also been supported by acquisitions that broadened the fee base into areas such as investment-grade credit and digital infrastructure. The company’s focus is to widen fee sources over time, which aligns with its emphasis on expanding the product set beyond direct lending.
A key part of the growth narrative is exposure to secular themes. OWL cites meaningful exposure to infrastructure and artificial intelligence as supportive drivers behind multi-year fee-related earnings growth, alongside diversification beyond direct lending.
Blue Owl’s Next Fund Cycle Signals Where Growth Is GoingFund sequencing is a near-term story that shows where Blue Owl expects momentum to come from. Management expects 2026 fundraising to be broadly similar to 2025 and pointed to major flagship vehicles reaching key milestones in the second half of the year. Net Lease VII and GP Stakes VI are expected to wrap up in the back half of 2026.
At the same time, Digital Infrastructure Fund IV is expected to return to market this year. That product cadence can shape fundraising optics. When large vehicles approach final closes, reported fundraising can look “lumpy” even if demand remains intact. A return-to-market cycle for digital infrastructure also signals that Blue Owl is prioritizing newer strategies as a durable contributor to future fee streams.
The baseline for this cycle is strong. Blue Owl raised $42 billion in 2025, up from $27.5 billion in 2024 and $15.4 billion in 2023, and raised another $11 billion in the first quarter of 2026.
OWL’s Wealth Channel Vehicles Add a Second Growth LaneBlue Owl is also scaling evergreen wealth products, which can create a second growth lane alongside institutional closes. Continued scaling of these evergreen vehicles acts as a driver of durability in fundraising, supported by the mix of flagship fundraising and wealth channel products.
Several wealth channel evergreen funds are already part of the company’s lineup, including OCIC, OTIC, ORENT, ODIT and OWLCX. Management noted that early-2026 daily flows were generally stabilizing, a constructive sign for semi-liquid structures that depend on steady inflows to support confidence and ongoing fundraising.
If wealth flows remain stable, they can help smooth fundraising results when institutional programs are between major closes. That matters for a business built on management fees, where consistency in fee-paying capital can support earnings quality across market cycles.

Blue Owl’s Embedded Deployment Links to Margin LeverageA central piece of the “new fee engine” thesis is embedded deployment. As of March 31, 2026, Blue Owl had $29.9 billion of assets under management (AUM) not yet paying fees. Management expects this to translate into about $349 million of annualized management fees once deployed.
The company expects that deployment to play out over roughly the next 12 to 24 months. If execution tracks to plan, management sees about 14% embedded growth off 2025 management fees as fee-eligible capital is put to work.
That deployment is also tied to profitability. Management expects the fee-related earnings margin to be 58.5% for 2026, up modestly from 58.3% in 2025, reflecting incremental operating leverage as capital becomes fee-paying.

OWL’s Trend Risk: Liquidity and Sentiment in Private CreditThe main near-term trend risk is liquidity and sentiment, particularly in retail-oriented private credit vehicles. Toward the end of 2025, non-traded business development companies saw slower flows and elevated redemption requests.
In the first quarter of 2026, management cited net outflows of roughly $170 million from OCIC and OTIC, while redemptions from non-traded business development companies were about $1.2 billion. Persistent redemption pressure can weaken investor confidence and slow fundraising, which can weigh on fee growth for semi-liquid products.
Similar to Blue Owl, several other alternative asset managers, including Apollo Global Management (APO - Free Report) and Blackstone Inc. (BX - Free Report) , witnessed higher-than-normal redemption requests in some of their flagship funds during the first quarter.
Blue Owl’s Trend Risk: Tech and Software Credit QualityCredit quality in software and artificial intelligence-adjacent exposures is another watch item for OWL. Investors have become more cautious toward mid-sized technology companies, where earnings durability can be harder to assess and where artificial intelligence-driven disruption can erode competitive positioning, pricing power and cash-flow visibility for some issuers.
Key direct lending indicators such as watch list activity, nonaccruals, amendment requests and revolver draws did not show meaningful adverse movement in the first quarter of 2026, and the average annual loss rate remains 12 basis points. Still, spreads have begun to widen and public company volatility can tighten equity cushions over time, increasing sensitivity to a sustained macro slowdown.
OWL: Takeaways for Trend-Focused InvestorsFor investors focused on trend-driven fee expansion, the markers to watch are straightforward. A successful next fundraising cycle for Digital Infrastructure Fund IV and continued progress in net lease and GP Strategic Capital flagships would reinforce the idea that newer strategies are becoming a durable fee contributor.
Steady wealth-channel flows in evergreen vehicles would support fundraising durability and reduce reliance on single-point institutional closes. Timely deployment of the $29.9 billion in non-fee-paying AUM is also critical.
Finally, validation depends on pressures staying contained: liquidity and redemption activity in semi-liquid private credit, tech and software borrower quality, and expense growth tied to distribution and product build-out.
Over the past three months, shares of Blue Owl have lost 7%, against the industry’s rally of 2.3%.
Blackstone BX fell 5.14%, KKR KKR dropped 5.24%, and Blue Owl Capital OWL dropped 4.67% after reports that Partners Group capped withdrawals on its $8.6 billion Global Value SICAV fund, limiting redemptions to 5% of net asset value per quarter after requests surged to an estimated 9.8% in Q2. Partners Group CEO David Layton said most redemptions are coming from Asia and Australia, and acknowledged the Grizzly Research short-seller report "certainly doesn't help." Partners Group shares fell 17.25% in Zurich, their biggest intraday loss on record.
The broader concern is contagion. Private wealth clients, who make up about a fifth of Partners Group's AUM, are driving the bulk of the pressure and are moving faster than institutional investors typically would. Private credit funds have absorbed large outflows for several quarters amid debt quality worries and AI disruption fears, and Bloomberg reported that Apollo Global Management APO and BlackRock BLK are among managers that have also capped redemptions recently. Partners Group said in its investor letter that "these flow dynamics have recently accelerated," with macroeconomic shifts and geopolitical uncertainty compounding the pressure.
"The disease is spreading across private markets asset classes," said Pierre-Yves Gauthier, CEO of AlphaValue.
