2 CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including statements relating to (i) our strategy, outlook and growth prospects, (ii) our operational and financial targets and (iii) general economic trends and trends in our industry and markets. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” or “potential” or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases which are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, and may cause the Company’s actual results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. Factors that might cause such a difference include, without limitation, our ability to grow our business by raising capital for our funds and the companies that we manage; whether run rate metrics presented herein are reflective of actual annual data; our position as an owner and investment manager of digital infrastructure and our ability to manage any related conflicts of interest; adverse changes in general economic and political conditions, including those resulting from supply chain difficulties, inflation, interest rate increases, a potential economic slowdown or a recession; our ability to deconsolidate our Operating segment; the anticipated impact of artificial intelligence developments on our business; our exposure to business risks in Europe, Asia and other foreign markets; our ability to obtain and maintain financing arrangements, including securitizations, on favorable or comparable terms or at all; the ability of our managed companies to attract and retain key customers and to provide reliable services without disruption; the reliance of our managed companies on third-party suppliers for power, network connectivity and certain other services; our ability to increase assets under management ("AUM") and expand our existing and new investment strategies; our ability to integrate and maintain consistent standards and controls, including our ability to manage our acquisitions in the digital infrastructure and investment management industries effectively; our business and investment strategy, including the ability of the businesses in which we have significant investments to execute their business strategies; performance of our investments relative to our expectations and the impact on our actual return on invested equity, as well as the cash provided by these investments and available for distribution; our ability to deploy capital into new investments consistent with our investment management strategies; the availability of, and competition for, attractive investment opportunities and the earnings profile of such new investments; our ability to achieve any of the anticipated benefits of certain joint ventures, including any ability for such ventures to create and/or distribute new investment products; our expected hold period for our assets and the impact of any changes in our expectations on the carrying value of such assets; the general volatility of the securities markets in which we participate; the market value of our assets; interest rate mismatches between our assets and any borrowings used to fund such assets; effects of hedging instruments on our assets; the impact of economic conditions on third parties on which we rely; the impact of any security incident or deficiency affecting our systems or network or the system and network of any of our managed companies or service providers; any litigation and contractual claims against us and our affiliates, including potential settlement and litigation of such claims; our leverage and our ability to reach our targeted level of leverage by year-end; the impact of legislative, regulatory and competitive changes, including those related to privacy and data protection; the impact of our transition from a real estate investment trust ("REIT") to a taxable C corporation for tax purposes, and the related liability for corporate and other taxes; whether we will be able to utilize existing tax attributes to offset taxable income to the extent contemplated; our ability to maintain our exemption from registration as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”); changes in our board of directors or management team, and availability of qualified personnel; our ability to make or maintain distributions to our stockholders; fluctuations in foreign currency and exchange rates and our understanding of and ability to successfully navigate the competitive landscape in which we and our managed companies operate and other risks and uncertainties, including those detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023, each under the heading “Risk Factors,” as such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s subsequent periodic filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s good faith beliefs, assumptions and expectations, but they are not guarantees of future performance. Additional information about these and other factors can be found in the Company’s reports filed from time to time with the SEC. The Company cautions investors not to unduly rely on any forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this presentation. The Company is under no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this presentation, nor to conform prior statements to actual results or revised expectations, and the Company does not intend to do so. This presentation is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of the Company or any investment vehicle managed or advised thereby. This information is not intended to be indicative of future results. Actual performance of the Company may vary materially. The appendices herein contain important information that is material to an understanding of this presentation and you should read this presentation only with and in context of the appendices.


 
3 IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES This presentation includes certain “non-GAAP” supplemental measures that are not defined by generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, including certain of the financial metrics defined below, of which the calculations may differ from methodologies utilized by other companies for similar performance measurements, and accordingly, may not be comparable to those of other companies. This presentation includes forward-looking guidance for certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, FRE, and Run-Rate Fee Revenue. These measures will differ from net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, in ways similar to those described in the reconciliations of historical Adjusted EBITDA and FRE to net income. We do not provide guidance for net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, or a reconciliation of guidance for these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because the Company is not able to predict with reasonable certainty the amount or nature of all items that will be included in net income. Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA): Adjusted EBITDA represents DE adjusted to exclude the following items attributable to the operating company: interest expense as included in DE, income tax expense or benefit as included in DE, preferred stock dividends, equity method earnings, placement fee expense, principal investment income or loss as included in DE, placement fee expense, our share of incentive fees and realized carried interest allocation or reversal net of associated compensation expense or reversal, certain investment costs for capital raising that are not reimbursable by our sponsored funds, and capital expenditures as deducted in DE. Adjusted EBITDA is presented on a reportable segment basis and for the Company in total. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful supplemental measure of performance because it presents the Company’s operating performance independent of its capital structure, leverage and non-cash items, which allows for better comparability against entities with different capital structures and income tax rates. However, because Adjusted EBITDA is calculated before recurring cash charges including interest expense and taxes and does not deduct capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements, its usefulness as a performance measure may be limited. Assets Under Management (“AUM”): Assets owned by the Company’s balance sheet and assets for which the Company and its affiliates provide investment management services, including assets for which the Company may or may not charge management fees and/or performance allocations. Balance sheet AUM is based on the undepreciated carrying value of digital investments and the impaired carrying value of non digital investments as of the report date. Investment management AUM is based on the cost basis of managed investments as reported by each underlying vehicle as of the report date. AUM further includes uncalled capital commitments, but excludes DBRG OP’s share of non wholly-owned real estate investment management platform’s AUM. The Company's calculations of AUM may differ from the calculations of other asset managers, and as a result, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers. DigitalBridge Operating Company, LLC (“DBRG OP”): The operating partnership through which the Company conducts all of its activities and holds substantially all of its assets and liabilities. DBRG OP share excludes noncontrolling interests in investment entities. Fee Related Earnings (“FRE”): FRE is calculated as recurring fee income and other income inclusive of cost reimbursements (related to administrative expenses), and net of compensation expense (excluding equity-based compensation, carried interest and incentive compensation) and administrative expense (excluding placement fees and straight-line rent). FRE is used to assess the extent to which direct base compensation and operating expenses are covered by recurring fee revenues in the digital investment management business. We believe that FRE is a useful supplemental performance measure because it may provide additional insight into the profitability of the overall digital investment management business. FRE is measured as Adjusted EBITDA for the IM segment, adjusted to reflect the Company’s IM segment as a stabilized business by excluding FRE associated with new investment strategies that have 1) not yet held a first close raising FEEUM; or 2) not yet achieved break-even Adjusted EBITDA only for investment products that may be terminated solely at the Company’s discretion, collectively referred to as “Start-up FRE.” The Company evaluates new investment strategies on a regular basis and excludes Start-Up FRE from FRE until such time a new strategy is determined to form part of the Company’s core investment management business. Distributable Earnings (“DE”): DE is an after-tax measure that differs from GAAP net income or loss from continuing operations as a result of the following adjustments, including adjustment for our share of similar items recognized by our equity method investments: transaction-related costs; restructuring charges (primarily severance and retention costs); realized and unrealized gains and losses, except realized gains and losses from digital assets in Corporate and Other; depreciation, amortization and impairment charges; debt prepayment penalties, and amortization of deferred financing costs, debt premiums and debt discounts; our share of unrealized carried interest, net of associated compensation expense; equity-based compensation expense; equity method earnings from BRSP which is replaced with dividends declared by BRSP; effect of straight-line lease income and expense; impairment of equity investments directly attributable to decrease in value of depreciable real estate held by the investee; non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures; income tax effect on certain of the foregoing adjustments. Income taxes included in DE reflect the benefit of deductions arising from certain expenses that are excluded from the calculation of DE, such as equity-based compensation, as these deductions do decrease actual income tax paid or payable by the Company in any one period. There are no differences in the Company’s measurement of DE and AFFO. Therefore, previously reported AFFO is the equivalent to DE and prior period information has not been recast. DE is presented on a reportable segment basis and for the Company in total. We believe that DE is a meaningful supplemental measure as it reflects the ongoing operating performance of our core business by generally excluding items that are non-core operational in nature and allows for better comparability of operating results period-over- period and to other companies in similar lines of business. Fee Related Earnings Margin (“FRE Margin”): FRE Margin is calculated by dividing FRE by management fee revenues, excluding one-time catch-up fees and/or incentives fees. Fee-Earning Equity Under Management (“FEEUM”): Equity for which the Company and its affiliates provides investment management services and derives management fees and/or performance allocations. FEEUM generally represents the basis used to derive fees, which may be based on invested equity, stockholders’ equity, or fair value pursuant to the terms of each underlying investment management agreement. The Company's calculations of FEEUM may differ materially from the calculations of other asset managers, and as a result, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers. Monthly Recurring Revenue (“MRR”): The Company defines MRR as revenue from ongoing services that is generally fixed in price and contracted for longer than 30 days. Run-Rate Fee Revenue: Calculated as FEEUM , inclusive of uncalled contractual commitments expected to be called within their commitment periods by investment vehicles that charge fees on invested capital once called, multiplied by the blended average fee rate as of the most recent reporting period. The Company’s calculations of Run-rate Investment Management Fee Revenues may not be achieved if all uncalled commitments are not called In evaluating the information presented throughout this presentation see definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures. For purposes of comparability, historical data in this presentation may include certain adjustments from prior reported data at the historical period.

8 PROGRESS ON OUR 2023 PRIORITIES: THE 3 THINGS THAT MATTER In 2Q23, DigitalBridge made significant progress towards achieving its key 2023 priorities, including strong capital formation, operating segment deconsolidation, and support for the continued growth of its portfolio companies. ▪ Strong Growth: 2Q23 IM Fee Revenue increased 47% YoY and FRE increased 35%, driven by higher FEEUM from credit, core, and co-invest strategies and a full quarter contribution from the InfraBridge acquisition. ▪ New Capital Formation: DigitalBridge raised $2.7B(1) since last quarter, driven by initial commitments to the latest DBP Series and successful co-invest syndications. LP interest in digital infrastructure remains robust. ▪ Guidance On Track: DBRG remains on track to meet its fundraising targets for the year. FUNDRAISE ▪ Deconsolidation: DBRG expects to receive commitments sufficient to deconsolidate DataBank by the end of August 2023 which will generate at least $45M(2) of incremental proceeds to balance sheet. Vantage SDC remains on track for successful deconsolidation during 2023. ▪ Additional Alt Manager Reporting – additional disclosures and reporting framework consistent with Alt Manager peers (investment management segment detail) SIMPLIFY ▪ Portfolio Wide Growth: Portfolio company MRR continued to grow across all verticals in the DBRG ecosystem ▪ Capex Deployment: Over $4B deployed YTD at attractive development yields across our PortCos ▪ Data Centers: Early innings in Generative AI demand, with initial uplift seen in strong YoY pipeline growth DRIVE PORTCO PERFORMANCE Note: There can be no assurance that actual amounts will not be materially higher or lower than these expectations.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” or “potential” or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases which are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, and may cause the Company’s actual results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. Factors that might cause such a difference include, without limitation, our ability to grow our business by raising capital for our funds and the companies that we manage; our position as an investor and investment manager of digital infrastructure and our ability to manage any related conflicts of interest; adverse changes in general economic and political conditions, including those resulting from supply chain difficulties, inflation, interest rate increases, a potential economic slowdown or a recession; our exposure to business risks in Europe, Asia and other foreign markets; our ability to obtain and maintain financing arrangements, including securitizations, on favorable or comparable terms or at all; the ability of our managed companies to attract and retain key customers and to provide reliable services without disruption; the reliance of our managed companies on third-party suppliers for power, network connectivity and certain other services; our ability to increase assets under management ("AUM") and expand our existing and new investment strategies; our ability to integrate and maintain consistent standards and controls, including our ability to manage our acquisitions in the digital infrastructure and investment management industries effectively; our business and investment strategy, including the ability of the businesses in which we have significant investments to execute their business strategies; performance of our investments relative to our expectations and the impact on our actual return on invested equity, as well as the cash provided by these investments and available for distribution; our ability to deploy capital into new investments consistent with our investment management strategies; the availability of, and competition for, attractive investment opportunities and the earnings profile of such new investments; our ability to achieve any of the anticipated benefits of certain joint ventures, including any ability for such ventures to create and/or distribute new investment products; our expected hold period for our assets and the impact of any changes in our expectations on the carrying value of such assets; the general volatility of the securities markets in which we participate; the market value of our assets; interest rate mismatches between our assets and any borrowings used to fund such assets; effects of hedging instruments on our assets; the impact of economic conditions on third parties on which we rely; the impact of any security incident or deficiency affecting our systems or network or the system and network of any of our managed companies or service providers; any litigation and contractual claims against us and our affiliates, including potential settlement and litigation of such claims; our levels of leverage; the impact of legislative, regulatory and competitive changes, including those related to privacy and data protection; the impact of our transition from a real estate investment trust ("REIT") to a taxable C corporation for tax purposes, and the related liability for corporate and other taxes; whether we will be able to utilize existing tax attributes to offset taxable income to the extent contemplated; our ability to maintain our exemption from registration as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”); changes in our board of directors or management team, and availability of qualified personnel; our ability to make or maintain distributions to our stockholders; and our understanding of and ability to successfully navigate the competitive landscape in which we and our managed companies operate and other risks and uncertainties, including those detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023 under the heading “Risk Factors,” as such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s subsequent periodic filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s good faith beliefs, assumptions and expectations, but they are not guarantees of future performance. Additional information about these and other factors can be found in the Company’s reports filed from time to time with the SEC.

The Company cautions investors not to unduly rely on any forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this presentation. The Company is under no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this presentation, nor to conform prior statements to actual results or revised expectations, and the Company does not intend to do so.

This presentation is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of the Company. This information is not intended to be indicative of future results. Actual performance of the Company may vary materially.
The appendices herein contain important information that is material to an understanding of this presentation and you should read this presentation only with and in context of the appendices.
DigitalBridge | Supplemental Financial Report


Important Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This financial supplemental package includes certain non-GAAP financial measures and operating metrics that are not defined by generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP.
Following our decision not to maintain qualification as a REIT for 2022, we no longer present Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations, supplemental non-GAAP measures commonly used by equity REITs. Resulting from the significant growth in our digital investment management business, effective the second quarter of 2022, we report Distributable Earnings (“DE”), Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and, specific to our IM segment, Fee Related Earnings (“FRE”) as non-GAAP financial measures attributable to the DBRG OP, which more closely align the key performance metrics of our core business to the alternative investment management industry.
We use these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating the Company’s business performance and in making operating decisions. As we evaluate profitability based upon continuing operations, these non-GAAP measures exclude results from discontinued operations. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income or loss as indicators of operating performance, or to cash flows from operating activities as measures of liquidity, nor as indicators of the availability of funds for our cash needs, including funds available to make distributions. Our calculation of these non-GAAP measures may differ from methodologies utilized by other companies for similarly titled performance measures and, as a result, may not be directly comparable to those calculated by other companies in similar lines of business.
In evaluating the information presented throughout this supplemental financial report, refer to the appendices to this presentation for definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures. For purposes of comparability, historical information in this presentation may reflect certain adjustments to information reported in prior periods.

Distributable Earnings: DE is an after-tax measure that differs from GAAP net income or loss from continuing operations as a result of the following adjustments, including adjustment for our share of similar items recognized by our equity method investments, where applicable: transaction-related costs; restructuring charges (primarily severance and retention costs); realized and unrealized gains or losses, except realized gains or losses related to digital assets, including fund investments, in Corporate and Other; depreciation, amortization and impairment charges; interest expense on finance leases; debt prepayment penalties and amortization of deferred financing costs, debt premiums and discounts; our share of unrealized carried interest allocation, net of associated compensation expense; equity-based compensation costs; effect of straight-line lease income and expense; impairment of equity investments directly attributable to decrease in value of depreciable real estate held by the investee; non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures necessary to maintain operating real estate; and income tax effect on certain of the foregoing adjustments. Income taxes included in DE reflect the benefit of deductions arising from certain expenses that are excluded from the calculation of DE, such as equity-based compensation, as these deductions do decrease actual income tax paid or payable by the Company in any one period There are no differences in the Company’s measurement of DE and AFFO. Therefore, previously reported AFFO is the equivalent to DE and prior period information has not been recast. DE is presented on a reportable segment basis and for the Company in total.

We believe that DE is a meaningful supplemental measure as it reflects the ongoing operating performance of our core business by generally excluding items that are non-core in nature and allows for our operating results to be more comparable period-over-period and relative to other companies in similar lines of business.
Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA): Adjusted EBITDA represents DE adjusted to exclude the following items attributable to the Operating Company: interest expense as included in DE, income tax benefit or expense as included in DE, preferred stock dividends, principal investment income or loss as included in DE, placement fee expense, our share of incentive fees and realized carried interest allocation or reversal net of associated compensation expense or reversal, certain investment costs for capital raising that are not reimbursable by our sponsored funds, and capital expenditures as deducted in DE. Adjusted EBITDA is presented on a reportable segment basis and for the Company in total.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful supplemental measure of performance because it presents the Company’s operating performance independent of its capital structure, leverage and non-cash items, which allows for better comparability against entities with different capital structures and income tax rates. However, because Adjusted EBITDA is calculated
without the effects of certain recurring cash charges, including interest expense, taxes and capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements, its usefulness as a performance measure may be limited.

Investment Management Fee Related Earnings (IM FRE): IM FRE is calculated as recurring fee income and other income inclusive of cost reimbursements associated with administrative expenses, and net of compensation expense (excluding equity-based compensation, and incentive and carried interest compensation expense or reversal) and administrative expense (excluding placement fees and straight-line rent expense). IM FRE is used to assess the extent to which direct base compensation and operating expenses are covered by recurring fee revenues in the investment management business. We believe that IM FRE is a useful supplemental performance measure because it may provide additional insight into the profitability of the overall investment management business.

IM FRE is measured as Adjusted EBITDA for the IM segment, adjusted to reflect the Company’s IM segment as a stabilized business by excluding FRE associated with new investment strategies that have 1) not yet held a first close raising FEEUM; or 2) not yet achieved break-even Adjusted EBITDA only for investment products that may be terminated solely at the Company’s discretion, collectively referred to as “Start-up FRE.” The Company evaluates new investment strategies on a regular basis and excludes Start-Up FRE from IM FRE until such time a new strategy is determined to form part of the Company’s core investment management business.

Note Regarding DBRG Reportable Segments / Consolidated and OP Share of Consolidated Amounts

This presentation includes supplemental financial information for the following segments:

Investment Management (IM)
This business represents a leading global digital infrastructure investment platform, managing capital on behalf of a diverse base of global investors. The Company's flagship opportunistic strategy is conducted through its DigitalBridge Partners platform ("DBP"), separately capitalized vehicles and InfraBridge Global Infrastructure Funds (GIF), while other strategies, including digital core, credit, ventures and public equities, are conducted through other investment vehicles. The Company earns management fees, generally based on the amount of assets or capital managed in investment vehicles, and has the potential to earn incentive fees and carried interest based upon the performance of such investment vehicles, subject to achievement of minimum return hurdles. Earnings from our IM segment were attributed 31.5% to Wafra through the end of May 2022 when Wafra's investment in the IM business was redeemed by the Company.

Operating
This business is composed of balance sheet equity interests in digital infrastructure and real estate operating companies, which generally earn rental income from providing use of digital asset space and/or capacity through leases, services and other agreements. The Company currently owns interests in two companies: DataBank, including zColo, an edge colocation data center business; and Vantage SDC, a stabilized hyperscale data center business. Both DataBank and Vantage are also portfolio companies managed under IM for the equity interests owned by third party capital.

Corporate and Other
This segment is composed of the Company's other investment activities and corporate activities.
Other investment activities are composed of the Company's equity interests in: (i) digital investment vehicles, including the DBP flagship funds and InfraBridge GIF funds, and seed investments in various strategies such as digital core, liquid and credit; and (ii) remaining non-digital investments. Outside of its general partner interests, the Company's other equity interests in its sponsored and/or managed digital investment vehicles are considered to be incidental to its digital investment management business. The primary economics to the Company are represented by fee income and carried interest as general partner and/or manager, rather than economics from its equity interest in the investment vehicles as a limited partner or equivalent. With respect to seed investments, these are not intended to be a long-term deployment of capital by the Company and are expected to be warehoused temporarily on the Company's balance sheet until sufficient third party capital has been raised. These other investment activities generate largely principal investment earnings or losses and to a lesser extent, revenues in the form of interest income or dividend income from warehoused investments and consolidated investment vehicles. Effective the third quarter of 2021, these activities are no longer presented separately as the Digital Other and Other segments, which is consistent with and reflects management's focus on its core digital operations and overall simplification of the Company's business. This change in segment presentation is reflected retrospectively. During the first quarter of 2023, the Company sold all of its equity investment in BrightSpire Capital, Inc. (NYSE: BRSP). The Company's investment in BRSP qualified as held for sale and discontinued operations in March 2023. Accordingly, for all prior periods presented, the equity method investment in BRSP is presented as assets held for disposition on the consolidated balance sheets and equity method earnings (loss) from BRSP is presented as loss from discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations. This change is reflected retrospectively.
Corporate activities include corporate level cash and corresponding interest income, corporate level financing and related interest expense, corporate level transaction costs, costs in connection with unconsummated investments, income and expense related to cost reimbursement arrangements with affiliates, fixed assets for administrative use, compensation expense not directly attributable to reportable segments, corporate level administrative and overhead costs, and adjustments to eliminate intercompany fees. Costs which are directly attributable, or otherwise can be subjected to a reasonable and systematic allocation, have been allocated to each of the reportable segments. As segment results are presented before elimination of intercompany fees, elimination adjustment pertains to fee income earned by the IM segment from third party capital in investment vehicles managed by the Company and consolidated within the Operating segment and in Corporate and Other.


Throughout this presentation, consolidated figures represent the interest of both the Company (and its subsidiary DigitalBridge Operating Company, LLC or the “DBRG OP”) and noncontrolling interests. Figures labeled as DBRG OP share represent the Company’s pro-rata share.

Balance sheet AUM is based on the undepreciated carrying value of digital investments and the impaired carrying value of non digital investments as of the report date. Investment management AUM is based on the cost basis of managed investments as reported by each underlying vehicle as of the report date. AUM further includes uncalled capital commitments, but excludes DBRG OP’s share of non wholly-owned real estate investment management platform’s AUM. The Company's calculations of AUM may differ from the calculations of other asset managers, and as a result, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers.

Contracted Revenue Growth (“Bookings”)
The Company defines Bookings as either (1) a new data center customer contract for new or additional services over and above any services already being provided as well as (2) an increase in contracted rates on the same services when a contract renews. In both instances a booking is considered to be generated when a new contract is signed with the recognition of new revenue to occur when the new contract begins billing.
