Company Guidance -

Q3 2025

During BlackRock's Second Quarter 2025 Earnings Teleconference, the company provided detailed guidance on several key metrics. BlackRock reported a record $12.5 trillion in assets under management (AUM) and achieved 6% organic base fee growth, marking the fourth consecutive quarter of at least 5% growth. The company recorded $68 billion in net inflows, with $116 billion excluding low-fee institutional index redemptions. Revenue for the quarter was $5.4 billion, a 13% increase year-over-year, while operating income rose 12% to $2.1 billion. Earnings per share grew 16% to $12.05. Notably, the acquisition of HPS Investment Partners, completed on July 1, is expected to add $165 billion in client AUM and contribute approximately $450 million in revenue in the third quarter. The transaction is projected to positively impact BlackRock's effective fee rate by 0.6 basis points. The company also highlighted the closing of Global Infrastructure Partners V above its $25 billion target and announced plans to launch a proprietary LifePath target date fund with private allocations by 2026. Additionally, BlackRock's cash management platform grew by 25% year-over-year, generating $22 billion in net inflows during the quarter.
