Model ⓘEach model values the company its own way (discounted cash flow, earnings, assets, dividends). The fair value above starts from their evidence-weighted blend, not from a single model. In cyclical trough or peak years, after dilution or a stock split it is adjusted afterwards, so it can sit above or below the models. Based on fiscal year 2025 figures (about 10 months old). Earnings retained since then ($2.01 per share) are deliberately not added.Bear ⓘBear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull ⓘBull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. If a model's bull case is above four times its base value, the table shows that limit with a > sign (like the overall Bull above): beyond it no assumption holds.Coverage ⓘCoverage = how well-backed THIS model's estimate is for this stock (0–100): how complete and reliable its input data are, and how well the model fits the company. The final Fair Value is an evidence-weighted blend, so better-evidenced models count more. Green ≥70, amber 50–69, grey below 50.

Growth Quality ⓘGrowth is valuable only when reinvestment earns attractive returns (Aswath Damodaran): sustainable growth depends on return on capital, reinvestment and efficiency. Basis: total company revenue over the periods shown on the cards (3Y/5Y/all years), not per share, so a merger can show up as a growth jump; per-share earnings growth is in the value-creation card.55/100

What shareholders gained per year (last 5 years) ⓘWhat the business itself delivers per year: earnings growth per share plus the dividend yield. This is what you get IF the market keeps valuing the stock the same way: it contains no assumption about the market changing its mind. Computed per share, so buybacks count and a merger does not pass as growth. For a company that pays no dividend it is pure earnings growth per share. Period: earnings growth per share as CAGR over the last 5 reported fiscal years (annual statements), plus the current dividend yield. The start value is the median of the three years around the start, so a single crisis year (a pandemic or a write-down) does not distort the rate. Basis: adjusted.

Pace: 5 vs 10 years ⓘTwo data points, not a trend model: earnings growth per share over the last 5 fiscal years against the last 10.

AI conclusion: The business shows infrastructure expansion potential through its renewables joint venture yet lacks evidence of a durable competitive moat with uneven fundraising and exits in core private equity and credit activities.
Main risk: Antitrust regulators could impose additional fines or restrictions on KKR following repeated HSR Act violations in merger filings, affecting its deal activity and the integration of fund administration services.
Bull case: KKR could strengthen its compliance frameworks and leverage the Gen II acquisition to expand reliable back-office services amid private markets growth.
Bear case: Ongoing regulatory actions might hinder acquisitions, slow integration of the fund administrator and constrain recurring revenue from alternative asset services.
KKR has expanded its US renewables joint venture with TotalEnergies by adding a 700 MW portfolio as part of a broader 2.1 GW push. This infrastructure growth sits next to its core private equity and credit activities where fundraising and exits remain uneven. Our models currently see the stock as overvalued. Will the newer energy transition bets deliver more durable fee income than traditional deal cycles can provide?
