footnotes + disclosures
- Platform AUM estimated as of June 30, 2026. Future Standard defines a “Platform” as a group of internal investment teams with a similar primary investing strategy. References to “platform assets under management” or “Platform AUM” represent the AUM of the Funds managed by the investment teams at Future Standard, within the same Platform. References to “assets under management” or “AUM” represent the assets managed by Future Standard or its strategic partners as to which Future Standard is entitled to receive a fee or carried interest (either currently or upon deployment of capital) and general partner capital. Future Standard calculates the amount of AUM as of any date as the sum of: (i) the fair value of the investments of Future Standard's investment funds; (ii) uncalled investor capital commitments from these funds, including uncalled investor capital commitments from which Future Standard is currently not earning management fees or carried interest; (iii) the fair value of other assets managed by Future Standard. Future Standard's calculation of AUM and Platform AUM may differ from the calculations of other asset managers and, as a result, Future Standard's measurements of its AUM and Platform AUM may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers. Future Standard's definition of AUM and Platform AUM is not based on any definition of AUM that may be set forth in agreements governing the investment funds, vehicles or accounts that it manages and is not calculated pursuant to any regulatory definitions.
