Michael Brown has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Ares Management’s strong market position and growth potential. The company has demonstrated robust performance, particularly in its first-quarter earnings, where it exceeded expectations with significant deployment figures. This performance underscores Ares Management’s strategic advantage in navigating market dislocations, especially in asset classes like credit and secondaries.
Furthermore, Ares Management’s recent strategic moves, such as the GCP deal and its focus on diversification and growth, have begun to yield positive results. The firm is also well-positioned to benefit from potential inclusion in the S&P 500, which could further enhance its market standing. Despite some headwinds, Ares Management’s continued momentum in the wealth channel and its ability to raise substantial equity commitments reflect its resilience and adaptability in a volatile market environment.
