BREIT Bonus Shares Offering

FOR BREIT STOCKHOLDERS AND THEIR FINANCIAL ADVISORS ONLY

January 5, 2026

As we turn the page on 2025, I want to take a moment to say thank you for your continued support of Blackstone and BREIT, and share both an update on the company and a special offering.

As Blackstone’s first perpetual vehicle, BREIT stands as a prime example of our ability to deliver strong results to investors across market cycles. Since inception nine years ago (2017), BREIT has generated a +9.2% annualized net return (Class I), outperforming publicly traded REITS by over 60% and private real estate by nearly 3x on an annualized basis, while providing consistent monthly distributions with potential tax benefits. [ 1 ][ 2 ][ 3 ]


BREIT delivered this strong performance through a global pandemic and one of the most rapid interest rate increases in history, driven by our early positioning in data centers (acquired QTS in 2021), proactively hedging our balance sheet and our focus on fast-growing Sunbelt markets. [ 4 ][ 5 ]* We are equally proud that BREIT’s semi-liquid structure has worked as intended, delivering full liquidity to stockholders in 86% of months since inception and, during the 15 months of proration (Nov ‘22 to Feb ’24), substantially redeeming stockholders in just four months on average. [ 6 ][ 7 ] These differentiated results, both in terms of performance and liquidity, reflect Blackstone Real Estate’s investment acumen and proven track record across three decades. [ 8 ][ 9 ]

BREIT’s performance continues to accelerate, returning 6.8% year-to-date (Class I) through November 2025, with positive performance every month and momentum building. [ 1 ] As we look to 2026 and beyond, we are optimistic about this next phase of the real estate cycle and see several powerful engines driving a strong performance outlook for BREIT.


2026 Outlook

Today, we think the opportunity in commercial real estate is particularly compelling because real estate values have reset to historically attractive levels, creating one of the best entry points for investors in recent years. [ 10 ] This is especially true relative to equities and fixed income, which are trading at or near record highs. [ 11 ] We believe there is meaningful upside for real estate and that BREIT’s $100B+ portfolio is strategically positioned to capitalize on this opportunity and deliver strong performance. [ 12 ]

  • Constrained supply: new supply has fallen dramatically across every major sector, with construction starts in BREIT’s key sectors down by two-thirds to decade lows [ 13 ]

  • Declining cost of capital and healthy capital markets: the overall cost of capital (base rates and borrowing spreads) has declined 40%+ from its peak, while the availability of debt capital is deep and robust, fueling transaction activity. [ 14 ][ 15 ] Lower base rates, if sustained, should serve as a powerful catalyst for real estate values [ 16 ]
  • Well-positioned portfolio: approximately 90% concentrated in our highest conviction sectors of rental housing, industrial and data centers, with 65% concentrated in fast-growing Sunbelt markets [ 5 ]
  • Data centers as a performance engine: QTS is the largest and fastest growing data center company in the world, positioned at the center of the AI revolution. [ 17 ]* BREIT deployed an additional $3.7B into pre-leased data center developments in 2025 and the sector now represents 20% of our portfolio [ 18 ]


Special BREIT Offering

We are pleased to introduce a special offering for BREIT investors. All BREIT subscriptions for the January 1, 2026 through April 1, 2026 trade dates will receive bonus shares equal to 1% of the investment amount. For example, a $100,000 subscription made on February 1, 2026 would receive an additional $1,000 in BREIT shares. [ 19 ]

Performance is our north star, and we believe this offering will benefit all BREIT shareholders by enhancing our ability to deploy capital into an opportunity-rich environment. We believe BREIT is a terrific place to be invested, not only to capture the cyclical recovery, but also to build long-term wealth, generate income with potential tax benefits and for diversification in your portfolio. To learn more, join our upcoming Stockholder Event on February 3, 2026 at 1:00pm ET featuring Nadeem Meghji, Katie Keenan, and Zaneta Koplewicz.

Thank you for your trust, partnership, and continued support.

Returns for periods greater than one year are annualized consistent with the IPA Practice Guideline 2018. Returns for periods less than one year are not annualized. Year to date ( “YTD”) net returns for the other share classes: Legacy Class S shares (no sales load): 5.9%; Legacy Class S shares (with sales load): 2.3%; Class S -2 shares (no sales load): 2.1%; Class S-2 shares (with sales load): -1.3%; Legacy Class T shares (no sales load): 5.9%; Legacy Class T shares (with sales load): 2.3%.

Returns shown reflect the percent change in the NAV per share from the beginning of the applicable period, plus the amount of any distribution per share declared in the period. Return information is not a measure used under GAAP. BREIT has incurred $3.0 billion in net losses, excluding net losses attributable to non -controlling interests in third -party JV interests, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. This amount largely reflects the expense of real estate depreciation and amortization in accordance with GAAP Additional information about BREIT’s net loss as calculated under GAAP is included in BREIT’s annual and interim financial statements. All returns shown assume reinvestment of distributions pursuant to BREIT’s distribution reinvestment plan, are derived from unaudited financial information and are net of all BREIT expenses, including general and administrative expenses, transaction-related expenses, management fees, performance participation allocation, and share -class-specific fees, but exclude the impact of early repurchase deductions on the repurchase of shares that have been outstanding for less than one year. Past performance does not predict future returns. Class S shares, Class T shares and Class D shares were offered in BREIT’s primary offering but are currently only available to existing holders of such classes pursuant to BREIT’s distribution reinvestment plan. Class S-2 shares, Class T-2 shares, Class D-2 shares and Class I shares may be purchased in BREIT’s primary offering and through BREIT’s distribution reinvestment plan. The inception dates for the Class I, S, T and D shares are January 1, 2017, June 1, 2017, May 1, 20 17 and January 1, 2017, respectively. The inception date for the Class S -2, T-2 and D-2 shares is September 1, 2025. The returns have been prepared using unaudited data and valuations of the underlying investments in BREIT’s portfolio, which are estimates of fair value and form the basis for BREIT’s NAV. Valuations based upon unaudited reports from the underlying investments may be subject to later adjustments, may not correspond to realized value and may not accurately reflect the price at which assets could be liquidated. As return information is calculated based on NAV, return information presented will be impacted should the assumptions on which NAV was determined prove to be incorrect. Returns listed as (with sales load) assume payment of the full upfront sales charge at initial subscription (3.5% for C lass S and S-2 and Class T and T-2 shares; 1.5% for Class D and D -2 shares). The sales charge for Class D shares became effective May 1, 2018. The sales charge for Class S -2, T-2 and D-2 shares became effective September 1, 2025. Shares listed as (no sales load) exclude up-front selling commissions and dealer manager fees. BREIT no longer offers Class S, T, and D shares in its primary offering, and instead offers Class S -2, T-2 and D-2 shares in its primary offering. See “Important Disclosure Information —Use of Leverage” above for additional information.
Publicly traded REITs reflect the MSCI U.S. REIT Index total return as of November 30, 2025. Private real estate reflects the NFI -ODCE net total return as of September 30, 2025, which is the latest data available. BREIT’s Class I inception date is January 1, 2017. During the period from January 1, 2017 to November 30, 2025, BREIT’s Class I annualized total net return of 9.2% was 61% higher than the MSCI U.S. REIT Index annualized total return of 5.7%. During the period from January 1, 2017 to September 3 0, 2025, BREIT Class I’s annualized total net return of 9.2% was 2.6x the NFI -ODCE annualized total net return of 3.5%. BREIT does not trade on a national securities exchange, and therefore, is generally illiquid. The volatility and risk profile of the ind ices presented are likely to be materially different from that of BREIT including that BREIT’s fees and expenses may be higher and BREIT shares are significantly less liquid than publicly traded REITs. See “Important Disclosure Information —Index Definitions.”
Represents Class I Shares. Reflects the current month’s distribution annualized and divided by the prior month’s net asset value, which is inclusive of all fees and expenses. Annualized distribution rate for the other share classes: Legacy Class S: 3.9%; Class S-2: 3.9%; Legacy Class T: 4.0%; Class T-2: 4.0%; Legacy Class D: 4.6%; and Class D-2: 4.6%. Class S-2, Class T-2, and Class D-2 shares were first sold on September 1, 2025. Distributions are not guaranteed and may be funded from sources other than cash flow from operations, including, without limitation, borrowings, the sale of our assets, repayments of our real estate debt investments, ROC or offering proceeds, and advances or the deferral of fees and expenses. We have no limits on the amounts we may fund from such sources. Our inception to date cash flows from operating activities, along with inception to date net gains from investment realizations, have funded 100% of our distributions through September 30, 2025. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Distributions” in BREIT’s Quarterly Report on Form 10 -Q for more information. A portion of REIT ordinary income distributions may be tax deferred given the ability to characterize ordinary income as ROC. ROC distributions reduce the stockholder’s tax basi s in the year the distribution is received, and generally defer taxes on that portion until the stockholder’s stock is sold via redemption. Upon redemption, the investor may be subject to higher capital gains taxes as a result of a lower cost basis due to the ROC distributions. Certain non-cash deductions, such as depreciation and amortization, lower the taxable income for REIT distributions. BREIT’s ROC in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 was 66%, 97%, 90%, 100%, 92%, 94%, 85% and 96%, respectively. See “Important Disclosure Information — Tax Information.”

BREIT’s portfolio is currently concentrated in certain industries and geographies, and, as a consequence, BREIT’s aggregate return may be substantially affected by adverse economic or business conditions affecting that particular type of asset or geography.
Semi-liquid structure refers to the up to 2% of NAV monthly repurchase limit and up to 5% of NAV quarterly repurchase limit under BREIT’s share repurchase plan. We are not obligated to repurchase any shares, and our board of directors may determine to repurchase only some, or even none, of the shares that have been requested to be repurchased in any particular month in its discretion. Further, our board of directors has in the past made exceptions to the limitations in our share repurchase plan and may i n the future, in certain circumstances, make exceptions to such repurchase limitations (or repurchase fewer shares than such repurchase limitations), or modify or suspend our share repurchase plan if, in its reasonable judgment, it deems such action to be in our best interest and the best interest of our stockholders.
