What we found in TPG's 10-Q: the parts that mattered, the offsets in the same document, and what the company said about what comes next.
Our reading of the filing · Free to read, no account needed
TPG delivered a strong Q2 recovery, with GAAP revenue rising 100% year over year to $1.841B, fee-related revenue increasing 27% to $628.2M, and diluted GAAP EPS improving to $0.39 from a $0.05 loss. Growth was supported by higher management fees, exceptional Market Solutions capital-markets fees, and a broad recovery in performance allocations; AUM reached $326.8B. The main qualification is earnings quality: $923.2M of Q2 performance-allocation gains were unrealized, while debt increased to $2.344B and interest expense rose 43%.
The parts that mattered.
Pulled out of the filing itself, with the figures the company reported.
- Revenue and fee earnings accelerated
- GAAP revenue doubled year over year to $1.841B from $920.5M, driven by a $777.3M increase in performance allocations and a $135.9M increase in fees and other revenue. Fee-related revenue, the figure aligned with the earnings release, rose 27% to $628.2M from $495.1M.
- EPS returned sharply to profit
- Diluted GAAP EPS improved to $0.39 from a loss of $0.05 in Q2 2025, while net income attributable to TPG Inc. increased to $93.4M from $14.9M. Income before taxes was $356.0M, versus $39.3M a year earlier.
- Strong fee-related earnings leverage
- Fee-related earnings expanded 43% to $314.6M from $219.5M, with fee-related revenue up $133.1M while fee-related expenses increased only $37.9M. This implies material operating leverage in the recurring fee business.
- AUM and fundraising momentum continued
- AUM rose 25% year over year to $326.8B and fee-earning AUM grew 24% to $181.0B. Capital raised was $16.1B in Q2, including $5.6B in Credit, $2.7B in Growth and $2.5B in Real Estate.
- Broad-based performance allocation rebound
- Performance allocation income reached $1.113B, up 231% from $335.8M, with gains across Capital ($468.2M), Impact ($198.5M), Growth ($168.2M), Credit ($149.8M), and Real Estate ($106.0M).
- Liquidity remains substantial
- Cash and equivalents increased to $944.7M from $826.1M at year-end, and the company reported total liquidity of $2.900B. Operating cash flow remained robust at $524.2M for the first half of 2026.
And the other side of it.
The offsets in the same document — the things a summary that only listed the good news would have left out.
- Higher leverage and interest burden
- Debt obligations increased $621.1M in the first half to $2.344B following issuance of $500.0M of 2031 Senior Notes and revolving-facility borrowings. Q2 interest expense rose 43% year over year to $36.2M.
- Earnings rely heavily on unrealized carry
- The Q2 carry surge was primarily valuation-driven: unrealized performance-allocation gains were $923.2M, while realized gains declined to $189.9M from $438.6M in Q2 2025. This makes GAAP revenue and earnings sensitive to market-value reversals.
- Cash conversion softened; investment outflow rose
- First-half operating cash flow declined to $524.2M from $584.1M, while investing cash usage increased to $535.7M from $9.4M, primarily due to Jackson common-stock purchases and fixed-asset purchases. The filing does not disclose a standalone capex amount, so free cash flow cannot be calculated exactly.
- Material contingent carry clawback exposure
- Management identifies $2.636B of performance allocations as potentially subject to clawback if remaining investments became worthless, although it considers that scenario remote. The recorded clawback at current unrealized values was $6.8M.
- No formal risk-factor update
- No new or revised Item 1A risk factors were disclosed; the company directs investors to the December 31, 2025 Form 10-K. However, market risk remains material given $7.6B of accrued performance allocations in shared general-partner entities at June 30, 2026.

What they said about what is next.
