⁽²⁾  Net income represents net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc.

“Aging populations are living longer worldwide at the same time that global monetary policies have reduced interest rates to historic lows. Now, long-dated fixed income instruments traditionally used to fund retirement obligations carry asymmetric risk for investors looking to match retirement assets and liabilities. This is having a significant impact on where we’re seeing asset flows as investors seek other sources of yield, including from equities, where we witnessed a record $34 billion in net new flows.”

“iShares maintained its leadership position in the global ETF market, capturing $26 billion in net new business, as we continued to see adoption of ETFs across both institutional and retail investors globally. We signed a critical new strategic alliance with Fidelity Investments to deliver Fidelity’s more than 10 million clients increased access toiShares products, tools and support, and create a powerhouse ETF offering for the self-directed investor in the U.S. market. iShares has increasingly become a leading indicator of investor sentiment and, during the quarter, investors turned toiShares as a way to quickly and efficiently increase their exposure to equity markets.

“Our successful brand and product positioning in the retail market resulted in $9 billion of net inflows across the platform, our strongest quarter in two years. Increasingly, investors are looking for outcome-oriented solutions that leverage multi-asset class products, income-oriented strategies and alternatives. During the quarter, we added more than $1 billion of net inflows into retail alternative products and now manage nearly $11 billion of retail alternative products.

“Our institutional clients also displayed an expanded appetite for risk and holistic portfolio solutions, generating strong net inflows in multi-asset products, including ourLifePath^® target-date funds where we now manage $62 billion, a 38% increase year-over-year.BlackRock Solutions posted another strong quarter and continues to expand globally. OurAladdin assignments generated year-over-year revenue growth of 11% driven by several successful implementations and a growing global client base. Clients are increasingly usingAladdin across multiple asset classes as they consolidate investment systems. Including two substantial new client wins in April, we have added sevenAladdin assignments in 2013 and we are implementing programs totaling close to $1.3 trillion in new assets.

“During the quarter, we continued our efforts to reshape the organization and invest in developing top-tier talent. We have made a number of internal moves to create opportunities for high performing employees and to add talent in key areas to enhance the experience for our clients. Since our acquisition of Barclays Global Investors, the Company has added more than 1,500 employees globally and expects incremental net additions by the end of this year.

“Our first quarter results give us confidence that we have positioned BlackRock to continue to deliver for our clients and shareholders across all market environments,” said Mr. Fink.

First Quarter Business Highlights

Assets under management (“AUM”)totaled a record $3.936 trillion at March 31, 2013, up 4% from December 31, 2012 and up 7% from a year ago. For the quarter, net inflows in long-term products totaled $39.4 billion, reflecting positive net new business across all client types. Equity, multi-asset class and core alternatives net inflows of $33.7 billion, $9.0 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, were slightly offset by fixed income and alternatives currency and commodities net outflows of $2.6 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively. Total net inflows of $40.5 billion also included advisory and cash management net inflows of $0.9 billion and $0.2 billion, respectively. Market and foreign exchange valuation net gains contributed $104.3 billion to AUM growth.

Net long-term inflows of $22.4 billion and $19.7 billion from clients in EMEA and the Americas, respectively, were partially offset by $2.7 billion of net outflows from Asia-Pacific clients. At March 31, 2013, BlackRock managed 61% of long-term AUM for investors in the Americas and 39% for international clients.

• Retail AUMof $421.1 billion reflected net long-term inflows of $8.8 billion across both U.S. retail and high net worth clients and international retail clients, and market and investment performance gains of $8.9 billion.

U.S. retail and high net worth net long-term inflows of $4.9 billion demonstrated strong interest in our U.S. core and municipal fixed income offerings, including the successful launch of the Multi-Sector Income Trust closed-end fund, which gathered nearly $700 million in assets. We expect the fund to reach $1.0 billion in AUM once fully levered.

International retail net long-term inflows of $3.9 billion included positive net long-term inflows in all asset classes, led by fixed income net inflows of $1.5 billion into local currency and global bond mandates, and multi-asset class net long-term inflows of $1.3 billion, largely into global allocation products. Additionally, our retail alternatives initiative continued to gain momentum with strong alternatives mutual fund flows and the launch of three new retail funds generating $1.1 billion of net long-term inflows across both U.S. and international retail client channels.

• iShares AUM of $802.8 billion included net long-term inflows of $25.6 billion, which were dominated by net long-term inflows of $26.3 billion into equity funds with early net inflows into emerging markets products reverting to broad market and large cap equities toward the latter part of the quarter as investor sentiment toward the domestic market proved resilient. Equity net long-term inflows were partially offset by fixed income net long-term outflows of $1.0 billion, with flows demonstrating a shift within fixed income from traditional long-term maturities toward short-term products.

U.S.iShares net long-term inflows into equity funds totaled $20.4 billion, tilting toward large cap equities during the latter part of the quarter. We saw continued client interest in our Core Series product suite which garnered $3.5 billion of net long-term inflows. International iShares net long-term inflows similarly were driven by equity net long-term inflows of $5.9 billion, with additional fixed income net long-term inflows of $2.2 billion.

• Institutional active AUMended the quarter at $878.7 billion, with market valuation gains of $4.3 billion offset by net outflows of $10.3 billion. Multi-asset class products generated strong net long-term inflows of $5.8 billion largely into target-date offerings for defined contribution plans.

Core alternatives net long-term inflows totaled $0.7 billion, excluding $0.3 billion of return of capital. Single strategy hedge funds net long-term inflows were led by demand for our model-driven fixed income and fundamental European equity hedge funds. Core alternatives net long-term inflows were offset by active currency redemptions of $3.2 billion. Equity net long-term outflows of $5.6 billion were largely from fundamental U.S. equity mandates. Fixed income net long-term outflows of $7.8 billion reflected outflows from U.S. targeted duration, core and sector-specialty mandates.

• Institutional index AUMtotaled $1.527 trillion at March 31, 2013, with net long-term inflows of $15.4 billion and market and foreign exchange valuation gains of $69.8 billion. Flows were led by equities with net long-term inflows of $13.6 billion primarily into global and U.S. equity mandates as clients continue their use of passive vehicles for broad macro exposure. Fixed income net long-term inflows of $0.8 billion were largely due to net inflows into U.S. core strategies.

Cash management AUMdecreased 1%, or $2.4 billion, to $261.3 billion with net inflows of $0.2 billion and market and foreign exchange declines of $2.6 billion.

Advisory AUMincreased 1% to $45.8 billion due to the addition of Financial Markets Advisory (“FMA”) portfolio liquidation mandates.

First Quarter Financial Highlights

Comparison to the First Quarter 2012

Operating income: First quarter 2013 operating income was $909 million compared with $815 million in first quarter 2012. Operating income, as adjusted, was $921 million compared with $825 million in first quarter 2012. First quarter 2013 included the previously mentioned organizational alignment costs of $33 million and fund launch costs of $18 million.

First quarter 2013 revenue of $2.4 billion increased $200 million from $2.2 billion in first quarter 2012, primarily due to the following:

• Investment advisory, administration fees and securities lending revenueof $2.1 billion in first quarter 2013 increased $152 million from $2.0 billion in first quarter 2012 due to growth in long-term average AUM. Securities lending fees were $112 million and $111 million in first quarter 2013 and first quarter 2012, respectively.

• Performance fees were $108 million in first quarter 2013 compared with $80 million in first quarter 2012, primarily reflecting higher fees from alternative products, including single-strategy hedge funds.

• BlackRock Solutionsand advisory revenue totaled $126 million in first quarter 2013 compared with $123 million in first quarter 2012, primarily reflecting higher revenue fromAladdin mandates more than offsetting the decline in revenues associated with the run off of assets related to advisory assignments.

• Other revenue increased $19 million, largely reflecting higher transition management service fees and higher earnings from certain investments.

First quarter 2013 total operating expenses of $1.5 billion increased $106 million from first quarter 2012. Results were primarily driven by the following:

• Employee compensation and benefitsincreased $80 million reflecting higher incentive compensation driven by higher operating income, including higher performance fees. The current quarter also reflected the previously mentioned organizational alignment costs of $33 million.

• General and administration expensesincreased $24 million, largely driven by closed-end fund launch costs of $16 million (excluding $2 million included in employee compensation and benefits expense).

Non-operating income (expense): First quarter 2013 non-operating income, net of non-controlling interests, was $7 million compared with $20 million non-operating income in first quarter 2012. First quarter 2013 included $51 million of net positive marks, primarily on distressed credit/mortgage fund co-investments and positive marks on private equity fund co-investments, offset by $48 million of net interest expense. Net interest expense increased $8 million from first quarter 2012, primarily due to long-term debt issuances in May 2012.

Income tax expense: Income tax expense totaled $284 million and $263 million for first quarter 2013 and first quarter 2012, respectively. The GAAP and as adjusted effective income tax rates for the first quarter 2013 were both 31.0% compared with 31.5% for the first quarter 2012.

Comparison to the Fourth Quarter 2012

Operating income: First quarter 2013 operating income was $909 million compared with $1.0 billion in fourth quarter 2012. The decline from the prior quarter was due to seasonally lower performance fees. Operating income, as adjusted, was $921 million compared with $1.0 billion in fourth quarter 2012.

First quarter 2013 revenue decreased $90 million from fourth quarter 2012, primarily due to the following:

• Investment advisory, administration fees and securities lending revenue of $2.1 billion in first quarter 2013 increased $48 million from fourth quarter 2012, driven by higher long-term average AUM, partially offset by the effect of two fewer revenue days in the quarter.

• Performance fees were $108 million in first quarter 2013 compared with $239 million in fourth quarter 2012. The decrease reflected the seasonality associated with the magnitude of products with annual performance fee measurement periods ending on December 31^st.

• BlackRock Solutions and advisory revenue of $126 million in first quarter 2013 compared with $136 million in fourth quarter 2012, primarily reflecting lower one-time revenue from advisory assignments.

First quarter 2013 total operating expenses of $1.5 billion increased $6 million from fourth quarter 2012. Operating expenses, as adjusted, of $1.5 billion increased $30 million from fourth quarter 2012. Operating results were primarily driven by the following:

• Employee compensation and benefits increased $57 million, primarily reflecting the previously mentioned organizational alignment costs of $33 million and higher seasonal employer payroll taxes, partially offset by lower incentive compensation.

• General and administration expenses decreased $70 million, primarily due to a one-time $30 million contribution to certain of the Company’s bank-managed short-term investment funds (“STIFs”) recorded in fourth quarter 2012, lower marketing and promotional expenses and the benefit of foreign currency remeasurement, offset partially by the previously mentioned closed-end fund launch costs.

Non-operating income (expense): First quarter 2013 non-operating income, net of non-controlling interests, was $7 million compared with $27 million non-operating expense in fourth quarter 2012. The first quarter 2013 reflected higher positive marks on private equity fund co-investments and other investments than fourth quarter 2012.

Income tax expense: Income tax expense of $284 million for first quarter 2013 decreased $4 million from fourth quarter 2012. The GAAP effective income tax rate for the first quarter 2013 was 31.0% compared with 29.4% for fourth quarter 2012. The fourth quarter 2012 GAAP tax rate included $20 million of non-cash benefits primarily associated with revaluation of certain deferred tax liabilities, which have been excluded from the as adjusted results. The as adjusted effective income tax rate was 31.0% and 31.4% for first quarter 2013 and fourth quarter 2012, respectively.

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 (net of distribution and servicing costs and amortization of deferred sales commissions) used for operating margin measurement, as indicated in the table below.

Management believes operating income, as adjusted, and operating margin, as adjusted, are effective indicators of BlackRock’s financial performance over time and, therefore, provide useful disclosure to investors.

(a) (continued)

Operating income, as adjusted:

Operating income, as adjusted reflects the non-GAAP expense adjustments discussed below. Contribution to STIFs represents a one-time contribution to certain of the Company’s bank-managed STIFs. 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 has been excluded because it ultimately does not impact BlackRock’s book value. 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 items 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 (expense). Examples of such adjustments include the contribution to STIFs, 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 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.

(b) Non-operating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests, as adjusted:

Non-operating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests (“NCI”), as adjusted, is presented below. The compensation expense offset is recorded in operating income. This compensation expense has been included in non-operating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted, to offset returns on investments set aside for these plans, which are reported in non-operating income (expense), GAAP basis.

⁽¹⁾ Net of net income (loss) attributable to NCI.

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.

(c) Net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted:

Management believes net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted, and diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted, are useful measures of BlackRock’s profitability and financial performance. Net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted, equals net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., GAAP basis, adjusted for significant non-recurring items, charges that ultimately will not impact BlackRock’s book value or certain tax items that do not impact cash flow.

See note (a) Operating income, as adjusted, and operating margin, as adjusted, for information on contribution to STIFs and the PNC LTIP funding obligation.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2012, income tax changes included adjustments related to the revaluation of certain deferred income tax liabilities. The resulting decrease in income taxes has been excluded from net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted, as these items do not have a cash flow impact and to ensure comparability among periods presented.

(d) For the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 and December 31, 2012 non-GAAP adjustments were tax effected at 31.0%, 31.5% and 31.4%, respectively, reflecting a blended rate applicable to the adjustments. BlackRock’s tax rates in fourth quarter 2012 included the impact of changes in the fourth quarter to the respective full year blended rates applicable to the adjustments.

(e) For the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2012, amounts exclude net income attributable to participating securities (see below).

(f) Non-voting participating preferred shares are considered to be common stock equivalents for purposes of determining basic and diluted earnings per share calculations.

Prior to the first quarter 2013, certain unvested restricted stock units were not included in diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding as they were deemed participating securities in accordance with required provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260-10,Earnings per Share. Average outstanding participating securities were 0.2 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2012, and December 31, 2012.
