Common Stock

Holders of common stock are entitled to participate in dividends from the Company on a pro rata basis.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company issued shares of common stock in settlement of vested RSUs. The Company has generally allowed holders of vested RSUs and exercised share options to settle their tax liabilities by reducing the number of shares of common stock issued to them, which the Company refers to as “net share settlement.” Additionally, the Company has generally allowed holders of share options to settle their exercise price by reducing the number of shares of common stock issued to them at the time of exercise by an amount sufficient to cover the exercise price. The net share settlement results in a liability for the Company and a corresponding adjustment to retained earnings (accumulated deficit).

On January 3, 2022, the Company announced a share repurchase program, pursuant to which, the Company was authorized to repurchase (i) up to an aggregate of $1.5 billion of shares of its common stock in order to opportunistically reduce its share
count and (ii) up to an aggregate of $1.0 billion of shares of its common stock in order to offset the dilutive impact of share issuances under its equity incentive plans. On February 21, 2023, the AGM board of directors approved a reallocation of the Company’s share repurchase program, pursuant to which, the Company was authorized to repurchase (i) up to an aggregate of $1.0 billion of shares of its common stock in order to opportunistically reduce its share count, a decrease of $0.5 billion of shares from the previously authorized amount and (ii) up to an aggregate of $1.5 billion of shares of its common stock in order to offset the dilutive impact of share issuances under its equity incentive plans, an increase of $0.5 billion of shares from the previously authorized amount.

On February 8, 2024, the AGM board of directors terminated the Company’s prior share repurchase program and approved a new share repurchase program, pursuant to which, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $3.0 billion of shares of its common stock to opportunistically reduce the Company’s share count or offset the dilutive impact of share issuances under the Company’s equity incentive plans. Shares of common stock may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to a trading plan adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise, as well as through reductions of shares that otherwise would have been issued to participants under the Company’s Equity Plan in order to satisfy associated tax obligations. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to make any repurchases at any specific time. The program is effective until the aggregate repurchase amount that has been approved by the AGM board of directors has been expended and may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time.

The table below outlines the share activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

1 The gross value of shares issued was $1,361 million and $789 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, based on the closing price of the shares of common stock at the time of issuance.
2 Cash paid for tax liabilities associated with net share settlement was $561 million and $310 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
3 Certain Apollo employees receive a portion of the profit sharing proceeds of certain funds in the form of (a) restricted shares of common stock that they are required to purchase with such proceeds or (b) RSUs, in each case which equity-based awards generally vest over three years. These equity-based awards are granted under the Company's Equity Plan. To prevent dilution on account of these awards, Apollo may, in its discretion, repurchase shares of common stock on the open market and retire them. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, Apollo issued 228,392 of such restricted shares and 149,002 of such RSUs under the Equity Plan, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, 3,850,000 and 7,267,000 shares of common stock, respectively, were repurchased in open market transactions as part of the publicly announced share repurchase programs discussed above, and such shares were subsequently canceled by the Company. The Company paid $533 million and $788 million for these open market share repurchases during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company issued 540,177 shares of common stock in settlement of a deferred consideration obligation. During the second quarter of 2024, the Company issued 742,742 shares of common stock in settlement of a share-based contingent consideration.

Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock

On August 11, 2023, the Company issued 28,750,000 shares, or $1.4 billion aggregate liquidation preference, of its 6.75% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock”).

Dividends on the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will be payable on a cumulative basis when, as and if declared by the AGM board of directors, or an authorized committee thereof, at an annual rate of 6.75% on the liquidation preference of $50.00 per share, and may be paid in cash or, subject to certain limitations, in shares of common stock or, subject to certain limitations, any combination of cash and shares of common stock. If declared, dividends on the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will be payable quarterly on January 31, April 30, July 31 and October 31 of each year, commencing on October 31, 2023, and ending on, and including, July 31, 2026. The first dividend payment on October 31, 2023 was $0.7500 per share of Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock, with subsequent quarterly cash dividends expected to be $0.8438 per share of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock.

Unless converted earlier in accordance with its terms, each share of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically convert on the mandatory conversion date, which is expected to be July 31, 2026, into between 0.5063 shares and 0.6075 shares of common stock, in each case, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments described in the certificate of designations related to the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations”). The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion will be determined based on the average volume weighted average price per share of common stock over the 20 consecutive trading day period beginning on, and including, the 21st scheduled trading day immediately prior to July 31, 2026.

Holders of shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock have the option to convert all or any portion of their shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock at any time. The conversion rate applicable to any early conversion may in certain circumstances be increased to compensate holders of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock for certain unpaid accumulated dividends as described in the Certificate of Designations.

If a Fundamental Change, as defined in the Certificate of Designations, occurs on or prior to July 31, 2026, then holders of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to convert all or any portion of their Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock at the Fundamental Change Conversion Rate for a specified period of time and to also receive an amount to compensate them for certain unpaid accumulated dividends and any remaining future scheduled dividend payments.

The Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock is not subject to redemption at the Company’s option.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, 100 and 235 shares of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock were converted at the option of the respective holders. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were 28,749,665 and 28,749,765 shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, respectively.

In April 2025, the Company issued 1,080,041 shares of common stock in relation to a cashless exercise of 2.6 million vested warrants issued in 2022. The remaining warrants exercisable for 2.5 million shares of common stock will become exercisable in the first quarter of 2026. As of September 30, 2025, pursuant to certain anti-dilution provisions, the exercise price for the warrants was adjusted to $82.73.

As of September 30, 2025, warrants exercisable for 0.4 million shares of common stock were vested and exercisable. Each warrant, to the extent exercised, will be settled on a “cashless net exercise basis.” The warrants will expire on the seventh anniversary of the issuance date, with any vested but unexercised warrants being automatically exercised at such time if the trading price of common stock is above the exercise price.
