On July 29, 2025, Evercore LP, a subsidiary of Evercore Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Robey Warshaw, a highly successful independent advisory firm headquartered in the United Kingdom. The transaction, which is expected to close at the beginning of the fourth quarter 2025, is subject to customary closing conditions and will involve the issuance of shares of the Company’s class A common stock (“Common Stock”).
In consideration of the acquisition of Robey Warshaw, the definitive agreement provides for the following consideration: (i) upfront consideration of £146,062,500, of which £71,250,000 is payable at closing in Common Stock and £74,812,500 is payable on the first anniversary of closing (in Common Stock and/or cash as agreed between the parties), which corresponds to approximately $196 million, with $96 million payable at Closing and $100 million payable on the first anniversary of closing, and (ii) potential contingent consideration based on the achievement of certain performance thresholds over a multi-year period, which if earned will be paid in Common Stock and/or cash as agreed between the parties, and which will be payable on various dates between closing and shortly following the sixth anniversary of closing.
To the extent that the Company issues any shares of Common Stock, the Company expects to file a Current Report on Form 8-K or otherwise disclose in its quarterly or annual reports on Form 10-Q or 10-K, as applicable, disclosing, among other things, the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued. Any such issuance will be made in reliance on an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement (or an amendment or supplement to an existing registration statement) registering any such shares of Common Stock for resale.
