Restructuring Transaction
On November 30, 2022, the Company entered into the Globe Restructuring Agreement, by and among the Company, Brookfield US Holdings Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario (“BUSHI”), and certain other affiliates of the Company or BUSHI (the “Globe Restructuring Agreement”). Pursuant to the Globe Restructuring Agreement, on November 30, 2022, the parties thereto consummated certain transactions in connection with an internal reorganization (the “Restructuring”), whereby, among other things, the Company distributed all of its interest in the economic shares of Oaktree Holdings, Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Oaktree Holdings, Ltd.”), to BUSHI, the sole holder of the Company’s Class A units. Concurrently, the Company transferred to Atlas OCM Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a non-subsidiary affiliate of the Company, the voting shares of Oaktree Holdings, Ltd. held by the Company.
The Oaktree Operating Group entities reflected in these condensed consolidated pro forma financial statements are (i) on a historical and pro forma basis, Oaktree Capital I, L.P., which acts as or controls the general partner of certain Oaktree funds and which holds a majority of Oaktree’s investments in its funds and (ii) on a historical basis only, Oaktree Capital Management (Cayman), L.P., which represents Oaktree’s non-U.S. fee business. The Adjustments to Historical Financial Information primarily reflect the assets, liabilities and financial results of the Oaktree Operating Group entity no longer controlled directly by OCG and deconsolidated as a result of the Restructuring: Oaktree Capital Management (Cayman), L.P., which is held by Oaktree Holdings, Ltd.
As described in notes 2 and 4 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, certain funds managed by Oaktree and CLOs for which Oaktree serves as collateral manager are variable interest entities (VIEs). As of September 30, 2022, the Company consolidated 26 VIEs for which it was the primary beneficiary, including 9 funds managed by Oaktree and 17 CLOs for which Oaktree serves as collateral manager. As a result of the Restructuring, which constitutes a reconsideration event, the Company re-assessed the primary beneficiary determination and concluded that it was no longer the primary beneficiary for CLOs where its direct ownership interests are held by operating group entities no longer controlled directly by the Company. The deconsolidation of these entities, has been reflected in the condensed consolidated pro forma financial statements as if it occurred on September 30, 2022 for the pro forma condensed consolidated statement of financial condition and on January 1, 2021 for the pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations.
