The New York-based investment manager posted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.98 on revenues of $712.3 million for the quarter. In the same period a year ago, it reported a net loss of $2.89 per share on negative revenue of $1.48 billion.

Apollo did not offer any guidance, but the Thomson Reuters full-year 2012 forecast calls for $2.45 per share earnings on $2.30 billion in revenues. That would represent 1,241.3% year-over-year growth in revenues.
