Analysing BX's Balance Sheet
$Blackstone (BX.US)$At the end of Q3-31, Blackstone had $8.2 billion in total cash, cash equivalents, corporate treasury, and other investments. It also had $18.4 billion of cash and net investments, or $15.26 per share.
The company also has a $2.3 billion undrawn credit revolver and maintains A level ratings.
On August 5, 2021, it issued $650 million of seven-year notes at a 1.625% coupon… $800 million of 10.5-year notes at a 2.0% coupon… and $550 million of 30-year notes at a 2.85% coupon.
BX generated LTM fee-related earnings of $2.47 per share in Q3, a 36% increase year-over-year. And its LTM total segment distributable earnings were $6 billion, a 97% increase.
Analysts expect it will generate 58% earnings-per-share (EPS) growth in 2021, an extremely impressive forecast to say the least.
BX declared a $1.09 quarterly dividend to record holders as of November 1, 2021 - to be paid on November 8. And the payout has been $3.57 over the LTM.
Also, it repurchased 2.9 million common shares in Q3-21 and 6 million over the LTM. The dividend yield is currently 1.7%.
BX's price-to-earnings (P/E) is 35.4x compared to the peer group average of 21x:
Although I'll admit I don't put a lot of credence into private equity growth estimates… I thought it would be interesting to compare analyst estimates for BX and its public peers.
So here you go:
Clearly, BX's moat is getting wider by the day, as the 35x P/E valuation appears to be stretched. Nonetheless, it's hitting on all cylinders.
And thanks to its C-corp structure, average investors can invest alongside some of the greatest real estate investors on the planet.

Kieron Morley : In BX, cost basis $8.07., CG cost basis $8.83, KKR cost basis $19.55. The simple truth of the matter, give your capital to brilliant capital allocators, relax, multiply your wealth, stay inactive.

That's it. Everyone should be given a brokerage account from birth.
