“High performing fixed income products combined with continued demand for yield-oriented strategies drove strong results in our retail business, specifically in retail fixed income where we generated $6.2 billion in net new business, our highest retail fixed income flows in over 10 years. As retirement trends accelerate and assets continue to shift from defined benefit to defined contribution plans, the appetite for broader investment solutions continues to increase. I’m proud to say that BlackRock attracted net inflows of $10.4 billion in defined contribution AUM, with particular strength in outcome-oriented solutions such as our LifePath® portfolios.BlackRock Solutions, another key growth priority, continued its record of consistent year-over-year growth, with a 9% increase in revenue for the business overall and 18% in our industry leading trading and operating system,Aladdin.

This week, we introduced our newiShares Core series for buy-and-hold investors, launched a revitalizediShares brand campaign and began to integrate our U.S.iShares and BlackRock retail sales forces. These initiatives are the first phase of a broader, global strategy to drive enhanced growth in theiShares platform.

Comparison to the Third Quarter 2011
Operating income: Third quarter 2012 operating income was $875 million compared with $777 million in third quarter 2011. Third quarter 2011 operating income included $63 million of U.K. lease exit costs related to the Company’s exit from two London locations. Operating income, as adjusted, was $876 million compared with $849 million in third quarter 2011.
Third quarter 2012 revenue of $2.3 billion increased $95 million from $2.2 billion in third quarter 2011, primarily due to the following:
| • | | Investment advisory, administration fees and securities lending revenueof $2.0 billion in third quarter 2012 increased $75 million from $1.9 billion in third quarter 2011 due to higher fees from all products except for active equity and alternative products and an increase in securities lending revenue. Securities lending fees were $129 million in third quarter 2012 compared with $88 million in third quarter 2011. |
| • | | Performance fees were $103 million in third quarter 2012 compared with $91 million in third quarter 2011, primarily reflecting higher performance fees from alternative products. |
| • | | BlackRock Solutions and advisory revenuetotaled $128 million in third quarter 2012 compared with $117 million in third quarter 2011, primarily reflecting higher revenue fromAladdin mandates and higher one-time revenue from advisory assignments. |
Third quarter 2012 total operating expenses of $1.4 billion decreased $3 million from third quarter 2011. Results were driven by the following:
| • | | Employee compensation and benefits increased $57 million, driven by higher incentive compensation, while maintaining a compensation-to-revenue ratio of approximately 35%. |
| • | | Amortization of deferred sales commissions decreased $7 million, primarily related to lower sales of certain share classes of open-end funds. |
| • | | General and administration expenses decreased $62 million, primarily due to U.K. lease exit costs incurred in the third quarter 2011, and lower occupancy costs and professional expenses. The decrease was partially offset by closed-end fund launch costs of $22 million (excluding $3 million included in employee compensation and benefits expense) associated with the August 2012 launch of the BlackRock Municipal Target Term Trust and an increase in foreign currency remeasurement costs. |

Third quarter 2012 included $64 million of net positive marks, primarily on distressed credit/mortgage funds and private equity fund co-investments, and $47 million of net interest expense.

The GAAP effective income tax rate for the third quarter 2012 was 28.1% compared with 13.7% for the third quarter 2011. The third quarter 2012 GAAP tax rate included a $30 million net non-cash benefit, related to the revaluation of certain deferred income tax liabilities, including tax legislation enacted in the United Kingdom.

| • | | Investment advisory, administration fees and securities lending revenue in third quarter 2012 increased $34 million from second quarter 2012, driven by market effects on average AUM, the benefit of one additional revenue day in the current quarter and revenue associated with net inflows, partially offset by seasonally lower securities lending fees.

| • | | Performance fees increased $62 million to $103 million in third quarter 2012 from $41 million in second quarter 2012.

| • | | Employee compensation and benefits increased $42 million, primarily reflecting higher incentive compensation driven by higher operating income. |
| • | | General and administration expenses increased $3 million, primarily related to the previously mentioned closed-end fund launch costs and an increase in foreign currency remeasurement costs, partially offset by lower marketing and promotional expenses, which were seasonally lower in the third quarter. |
Non-operating income (expense): Third quarter 2012 non-operating income, net of non-controlling interests, was $17 million compared with $46 million non-operating expense in second quarter 2012.

Additional Events Related to Certain Cash Management Funds
As discussed in BlackRock’s periodic reports, Barclays has provided capital support agreements to support certain cash management funds (bank-managed short-term investment funds or “STIFs”) acquired by BlackRock in the Barclays Global Investors acquisition from Barclays. On October 9, 2012, BlackRock, on behalf of two of these funds negotiated amendments to these capital support agreements to release Barclays from coverage provided for defaults on 52 covered securities (with an estimated value of approximately $750 million) held in the funds in exchange for a payment by Barclays to the funds of $70 million. This payment is an amount in excess of the payments that were expected under the Barclays capital support agreements. The Barclays capital support agreements will continue in effect for the remaining covered securities in these two funds.
Separately, on October 9, 2012, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency finalized amended rules governing STIFs to more closely align such funds with changes enacted in 2010 by the SEC for money market mutual funds. BlackRock is reviewing and evaluating its alternatives to ensure that the STIFs it manages are in compliance by the July 1, 2013 deadline.

BlackRock, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Supplemental Information
(unaudited)
BlackRock reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”); however, management believes evaluating the Company’s ongoing operating results may be enhanced if investors have additional non-GAAP basis financial measures. Management reviews non-GAAP financial measures to assess ongoing operations and, for the reasons described below, considers them to be effective indicators, for both management and investors, of BlackRock’s financial performance over time. BlackRock’s management does not advocate that investors consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Computations for all periods are derived from the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income as follows:
(a) Operating income, as adjusted, and operating margin, as adjusted:
Operating income, as adjusted, equals operating income, GAAP basis, excluding certain items management deems non-recurring, or transactions that ultimately will not impact BlackRock’s book value, as indicated in the table below. Operating income used for operating margin measurement equals operating income, as adjusted, excluding the impact of closed-end fund launch costs and commissions. Operating margin, as adjusted, equals operating income used for operating margin measurement, divided by revenue used for operating margin measurement, as indicated in the table below.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Supplemental Information

(continued)
(a) (continued)
Operating income, as adjusted:
U.K. lease exit costs represent costs to exit two locations in London in the third quarter 2011. Amount in third quarter 2012 represents an adjustment related to the costs initially recorded in third quarter 2011.
The portion of compensation expense associated with certain long-term incentive plans (“LTIP”) funded or to be funded through share distributions to participants of BlackRock stock held by PNC and a Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. (“Merrill Lynch”) cash compensation contribution, has been excluded because it ultimately does not impact BlackRock’s book value. The expense related to the Merrill Lynch cash compensation contribution ceased at the end of the third quarter 2011. As of first quarter 2012, all of the Merrill Lynch contribution was received.
Compensation expense associated with appreciation (depreciation) on investments related to certain BlackRock deferred compensation plans has been excluded as returns on investments set aside for these plans, which substantially offset this expense, are reported in non-operating income (expense).
Management believes operating income exclusive of these costs is a useful measure in evaluating BlackRock’s operating performance and helps enhance the comparability of this information for the reporting periods presented.
Operating margin, as adjusted:
Operating income used for measuring operating margin, as adjusted, is equal to operating income, as adjusted, excluding the impact of closed-end fund launch costs and commissions. Management believes the exclusion of such costs and commissions is useful because these costs can fluctuate considerably and revenues associated with the expenditure of these costs will not fully impact BlackRock’s results until future periods.
Operating margin, as adjusted, allows BlackRock to compare performance from period-to-period by adjusting for items that may not recur, recur infrequently or may have an economic offset in non-operating income. Examples of such adjustments include U.K. lease exit costs, closed-end fund launch costs, commissions paid to certain employees as compensation and fluctuations in compensation expense based on mark-to-market movements in investments held to fund certain compensation plans. BlackRock also uses operating margin, as adjusted, to monitor corporate performance and efficiency and as a benchmark to compare its performance with other companies. Management uses both the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating the financial performance of BlackRock. The non-GAAP measure by itself may pose limitations because it does not include all of BlackRock’s revenues and expenses.
Revenue used for operating margin, as adjusted, excludes distribution and servicing costs paid to related parties and other third parties. Management believes the exclusion of such costs is useful because it creates consistency in the treatment for certain contracts for similar services, which due to the terms of the contracts, are accounted for under GAAP on a net basis within investment advisory, administration fees and securities lending revenue. Amortization of deferred sales commissions is excluded from revenue used for operating margin measurement, as adjusted, because such costs, over time, substantially offset distribution fee revenue earned by the Company. For each of these items, BlackRock excludes from revenue used for operating margin, as adjusted, the costs related to each of these items as a proxy for such offsetting revenues.

Management believes non-operating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted, provides comparability of this information among reporting periods and is an effective measure for reviewing BlackRock’s non-operating contribution to its results. As compensation expense associated with (appreciation) depreciation on investments related to certain deferred compensation plans, which is included in operating income, substantially offsets the gain (loss) on the investments set aside for these plans, management believes non-operating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted, provides a useful measure, for both management and investors, of BlackRock’s non-operating results that impact book value.
