0746 GMT - KKR isn't immune to the headwinds facing the private-credit market, writes Morningstar's Greggory Warren in a note. Issues around liquidity in private-credit funds are likely to hit fundraising efforts and lead to increased redemption requests in the medium term, he says. While the alternative asset manager's exposure to private credit is far less than that of its peers Blue Owl and Ares, the company has enough private-credit exposure to weigh on it for the next several years, he adds. Morningstar cuts its fair-value estimate on KKR to $115 from $140, citing likely lower fundraising and higher redemptions for KKR's credit and liquid strategies segment. However, its shares are still moderately undervalued even with the fair-value estimate change, the analyst adds. Shares last closed flat at $90.60.(megan.cheah@wsj.com)
