Item7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure. A summary of a presentation providing certain information regarding Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("BREIT" or the "Company"), is set forth below in this Current Report on Form 8-K under this Item 7.01. In addition, the Company has posted the full presentation on its website at www.breit.com under "For Stockholders" in the "Resources" section. References herein to "we," "us" or "our" refer to the Company and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise. BREIT Q3 2025 Update Earlier this fall, we shared an update that Katie Keenan has been appointed to succeed our beloved colleague, the late Wesley LePatner, as Chief Executive Officer and a Director of BREIT, and Global Head of Core+ Real Estate at Blackstone. Katie is a long-tenured Blackstone executive who has held numerous leadership positions since joining the firm in 2012, most recently as Global Co-Chief Investment Officer of Blackstone Real Estate Debt Strategies and Chief Executive Officer of Blackstone Mortgage Trust, a NYSE-listed publicly-traded commercial mortgage REIT. We are confident that BREIT and our investors will benefit from Katie's strong leadership and expertise, and that she will help us carry forward Wesley's legacy. Momentum building for BREIT BREIT's performance continued to accelerate in the third quarter, delivering a +1.65% net return (Class I), and year-to-date performance through October up +5.6%, with ten consecutive months of positive performance. 1 Since inception nearly nine years ago, BREIT has generated a +9.2% annualized net return (Class I), which is 60% higher than publicly traded REITs and ~3x private real estate. 1,2 In 2024, 96% of BREIT's distribution was classified as return of capital, bringing our 4.8% pre-tax Class I distribution rate to 7.5% on a tax-equivalent basis, and we expect BREIT's 2025 return of capital to remain in line with this level. 3,4* We believe these compelling distributions as well as sustained positive performance is strengthening investor sentiment, with repurchase requests down 96% from their peak and net flows approaching positive. 5 BREIT's strong performance reflects the quality and resilience of its portfolio, which we believe is positioned to capture meaningful upside as the real estate recovery unfolds. With values having reset, commercial real estate stands out as a unique and compelling opportunity – especially compared to equities and fixed income, which have rallied 95% and 37% in recent years and now hover near peak levels. 6 We believe BREIT is strategically positioned to capitalize on this opportunity and deliver attractive returns for investors. Continued strength from data centers Data centers have been the leading driver of BREIT's recent performance, and we expect them to remain a powerful growth engine in the years ahead. In the third quarter alone, BREIT deployed $1.2B into data center development, bringing 2025 year-to-date inv
