Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
This form does not contain management commentary, forward-looking guidance, or specific risk factors regarding the firm's operations. The filing includes a standard disclaimer stating that the SEC has not reviewed the information for accuracy or completeness.

Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the specific 12 equity holdings listed in the full schedule to understand the portfolio composition.
- Confirm the total value of $1.56 billion represents only the reportable equity securities and excludes private equity, credit, or other non-reportable assets.
- Review the separate 13F filings for the three included managers (Carlyle Investment Management LLC, CIM Global, L.L.C., and Carlyle Global Credit Investment Management L.L.C.) to ensure no double-counting or omitted positions.
- Consult the company's 10-Q or 10-K filings for actual operating financial results, as this 13F-HR does not contain them.
