BlackRock
Fixed Income Investor Presentation
March 2017
Forward-looking Statements
This presentation, and other statements that BlackRock may make, may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, with respect to BlackRock's future financial or business performance, strategies or expectations. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as “trend,” “potential,” “opportunity,” “pipeline,” “believe,” “comfortable,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “current,” “intention,” “estimate,” “position,” “assume,” “outlook,” “continue,” “remain,” “maintain,” “sustain,” “seek,” “achieve,” and similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may” and similar expressions.
BlackRock cautions that forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and BlackRock assumes no duty to and does not undertake to update forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements and future results could differ materially from historical performance.
In addition to risk factors previously disclosed in BlackRock's Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports and those identified elsewhere in this presentation, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements or historical performance: (1) the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business initiatives and strategies; (2) changes and volatility in political, economic or industry conditions, the interest rate environment, foreign exchange rates or financial and capital markets, which could result in changes in demand for products or services or in the value of assets under management; (3) the relative and absolute investment performance of BlackRock's investment products; (4) the impact of increased competition; (5) the impact of future acquisitions or divestitures; (6) the unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings; (7) the extent and timing of any share repurchases; (8) the impact, extent and timing of technological changes and the adequacy of intellectual property, information and cyber security protection; (9) the potential for human error in connection with BlackRock's operational systems; (10) the impact of legislative and regulatory actions and reforms, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and regulatory, supervisory or enforcement actions of government agencies relating to BlackRock or The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.; (11) changes in law and policy accompanying the new administration and uncertainty pending any such changes; (12) terrorist activities, international hostilities and natural disasters, which may adversely affect the general economy, domestic and local financial and capital markets, specific industries or BlackRock; (13) the ability to attract and retain highly talented professionals; (14) fluctuations in the carrying value of BlackRock's economic investments; (15) the impact of changes to tax legislation, including income, payroll and transaction taxes, and taxation on products or transactions, which could affect the value proposition to clients and, generally, the tax position of the Company; (16) BlackRock's success in negotiating distribution arrangements and maintaining distribution channels for its products; (17) the failure by a key vendor of BlackRock to fulfill its obligations to the Company; (18) any disruption to the operations of third parties whose
functions are integral to BlackRock's ETF platform; (19) the impact of BlackRock electing to provide support to its products from time to time and any potential liabilities related to securities lending or other indemnification obligations; and (20) the impact of problems at other financial institutions or the failure or negative performance of products at other financial institutions. BlackRock’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and BlackRock’s subsequent filings with the SEC, accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and on BlackRock’s website at www.blackrock.com, discuss these factors in more detail and identify additional factors that can affect forward-looking statements.
This presentation also includes non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. You can find our presentations on the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and our reconciliations in the appendix to this presentation and BlackRock’s other periodic reports which are available on BlackRock’s website at www.blackrock.com.
BlackRock reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP; however, management believes evaluating the BlackRock's ongoing operating results may be enhanced if investors have additional non-GAAP financial measures. Management reviews non-GAAP financial measures to assess ongoing operations and, for the reasons described in BlackRock's Annual Report on Form 10-K, considers them to be effective indicators, for both management and investors, of BlackRock’s financial performance over time. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures as a benchmark to compare its performance with other companies and to enhance the comparability of this information for the reporting periods presented. Non-GAAP measures may pose limitations because they do not include all of BlackRock’s revenue and expense. 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.

Adjustments
Separate Account Assets and Collateral reflect U.K. Pension assets and securities lending collateral. BlackRock records equal and offsetting separate account liabilities as BlackRock has no economic interest in the assets or collateral
Assets of Consolidated Sponsored Investment Funds reflect certain sponsored investment funds accounted for as voting rights entities and VIEs that are consolidated. The Company cannot readily access the assets of such funds to use in its operating activities

BlackRock Fixed Income Considerations
Leading market position across three client channels providing diverse revenue streams and downside protection
Resilient business model with high recurring revenues, strong cash flow and low capex, generating over $3bn of free cash flows(1) annually
• Agency model, fiduciary with minimal balance sheet usage
• Fee-based business model
• Capex averaged 2% of revenue over last 10 years(2)
Strong credit metrics and ratings
• Total Debt / EBITDA < 1.0x, EBITDA / Interest > 25x(3)
Transparent and consistent capital management, with clear priority in free cash flow usage:
• Investment in business
• Tactical inorganic growth opportunities (M&A activity: $0m in 2014, $273m in 2015 and $30m in 2016)
• Dividend growth in line with profit growth, consistent share repurchase activity
Conservative liquidity position
• $9bn liquidity well in excess of potential liquidity requirements of BlackRock Debt Maturities
Sound debt structure
• $4.92bn debt (carrying value) well spread between 2017 and 2025; Upcoming $700m maturity in September 2017
(1) Free cash flow is calculated as Operating Cash Flows as adjusted less Capital Expenditures.
(2) Reflects the Purchases of Property and Equipment found on the GAAP cash flow statement divided by Total Revenue over a 10-year period.
(3) Figures shown above represent as adjusted results. 2016 GAAP results include: net income $3.2bn, total debt/net income
1.55x, net debt/net income 0.05x
