On October 
16, 2025, Blackstone Holdings Finance Co. L.L.C., as borrower, and Blackstone Holdings AI L.P., Blackstone Holdings I L.P., Blackstone Holdings II L.P., Blackstone Holdings III L.P. and Blackstone Holdings IV L.P., as guarantors, entered into an amended and restated $
4.325
 
billion revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. The Revolving Credit Facility amends and restates Blackstone’s existing revolving credit facility to, among other things, extend the maturity date from
December 15, 2028
to
October 16, 2030
and increase the aggregate required minimum amount of fee generating assets under management.
On November 
3, 2025, Blackstone, through its subsidiary Blackstone Reg Finance Co. L.L.C., issued $
600
 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes due November 3, 2030 (the “Registered 2030 Notes”), and $
600
 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes due February 15, 2036 (the “Registered 2036 Notes” and, together with the Registered 2030 Notes, the “Registered Notes”), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form
S-3.
The Registered 2030 Notes have an interest rate of
4.300
% per annum, and the Registered 2036 Notes have an interest rate of
4.950
%. The Registered Notes accrue interest from November 3, 2025. Interest on the Registered 2030 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 3 and November 3 of each year commencing on May 3, 2026. Interest on the Registered 2036 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year commencing on February 15, 2026.
All of Blackstone’s outstanding senior notes as of December 31, 2025 are unsecured
and
unsubordinated obligations of Blackstone Holdings Finance Co. L.L.C. or Blackstone Reg Finance Co. L.L.C. (together, the “Issuers”), as applicable, both indirect subsidiaries of Blackstone, that are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Blackstone Inc. and its indirect subsidiaries, Blackstone Holdings I L.P., Blackstone Holdings AI L.P., Blackstone Holdings II L.P., Blackstone Holdings III L.P. and Blackstone Holdings IV L.P. (the “Guarantors”). The guarantees are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantors. Transaction costs related to senior note issuances have been capitalized and are amortized over the life of each respective note issuance.
Blackstone borrows and enters into credit agreements for its general operating and investment purposes and certain Blackstone Funds borrow to meet financing needs of their operating and investing activities. Borrowing facilities have been established for the benefit of selected Blackstone Funds. When a Blackstone Fund borrows from the facility in which it participates, the proceeds from the borrowing are strictly limited for its intended use by the borrowing fund and not available for other Blackstone purposes. Blackstone’s credit facilities consist of the following:

(a)
Represents the Revolving Credit Facility of Blackstone, through Blackstone Holdings Finance Co. L.L.C. Interest on the borrowings is based on an adjusted Secured Overnight Finance Rate (“SOFR”) or alternate base rate, in each case plus a margin, and undrawn commitments bear a commitment fee of 0.06%. The margin above adjusted SOFR used to calculate interest on borrowings was 0.75% plus an additional credit spread adjustment of 0.10% to account for the difference between London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and SOFR. The margin is subject to change based on Blackstone’s credit rating. Borrowings may also be made in U.K. sterling, euros, Swiss francs, Japanese yen or Canadian dollars, in each case subject to certain
sub-limits.
The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary representations, covenants and events of default. Financial covenants consist of a maximum net leverage ratio and a requirement to keep a minimum amount of
fee-earning
assets under management, each tested quarterly. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, Blackstone had outstanding but undrawn letters of credit against the Revolving Credit Facility of $39.3 million and $38.9 million, respectively. The amount Blackstone can draw from the
Revolving
Credit Facility is reduced by the undrawn letters of credit, however the Credit Available presented herein is not reduced by the undrawn letters of credit. In February 2026, Blackstone drew $900.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility.
(b)
The Issuers have issued long-term borrowings in the form of senior notes (the “Notes”). The Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuers. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by Blackstone, the Guarantors and the Issuers. The guarantees are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantors. Transaction costs related to the issuance of the Notes have been deducted from the Note liability and are being amortized over the life of the Notes. The indentures include covenants, including limitations on the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ ability to, subject to exceptions, incur indebtedness secured by liens on voting stock or profit participating equity interests of their subsidiaries or merge, consolidate or sell, transfer or lease assets. The indentures also provide for events of default and further provide that the trustee or the holders of not less than
25
% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the Notes immediately due and payable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any event of default after expiration of any applicable grace period. In the case of specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or reorganization, the principal amount of the Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes automatically become due and payable. All or a portion of the Notes may be redeemed at the Issuers’ option in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, prior to their stated maturity, at the make-whole redemption price set forth in the Notes. If a change of control repurchase event occurs, the holders of the Notes may require the Issuers to repurchase the Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to
101
% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase.
(c)
The Secured Borrowings Due
10/27/2033
and
1/29/2035
were repaid during the year ended December 31, 2025.
(d)
Blackstone Fund Facilities represent borrowing facilities for the various consolidated Blackstone Funds that are used to meet liquidity and investing needs. Such borrowings have varying maturities and may be rolled over until a disposition or refinancing event. Borrowings bear interest at spreads to market rates or at stated fixed rates that can vary over the borrowing term. Interest may be subject to the performance of the assets within the fund and therefore, the stated interest rate and effective interest rate may differ.
(e)
CLO Notes Payable have maturity dates ranging from
June 2025 to January 2037
. For periods prior to December 31, 2025, a portion of the outstanding borrowings consisted of subordinated notes, which did not have contractual interest rates but instead received distributions from the excess cash flows generated by the CLO vehicles. As of December 31, 2025, the CLO Notes Payable were fully deconsolidated, and there are no outstanding borrowings for the current period.
The following table presents the general characteristics of each of Blackstone’s borrowings as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, as well as their carrying value and fair value. The borrowings are included in Loans Payable within the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Each of the Senior Notes were issued at a discount through Blackstone Holdings Finance Co. L.L.C. or Blackstone Reg Finance Co. L.L.C., as applicable, both indirect subsidiaries of Blackstone. The Senior Notes accrue interest from the issue date thereof and pay interest in arrears on a
semi-annual
basis or annual basis. The Secured Borrowings were issued at par, accrue interest from the issue date thereof and pay interest in arrears on a quarterly basis. CLO Notes Payable pay interest in arrears on a quarterly basis.

About Debt Disclosures

Debt disclosures detail a company's borrowing structure — the types of instruments, interest rates, maturity schedule, and covenant restrictions that define its financial obligations and flexibility. This section is essential for assessing refinancing risk, interest rate exposure, and the margin of safety against financial distress.

Key signals: the maturity schedule reveals concentration risk — large maturities within 1-2 years during tight credit markets can force dilutive refinancing or asset sales. Compare the fair value of debt against carrying amount to gauge whether the market views the company's credit risk differently than the balance sheet suggests. Watch covenant compliance disclosures for tightening cushions, especially leverage and interest coverage ratios. Variable-rate debt exposure quantifies sensitivity to interest rate changes. Secured versus unsecured mix affects recovery rates and future borrowing capacity. Compare net debt-to-EBITDA against industry peers and covenant limits to assess financial health.
