Insights

Equity Research Analyst

Evercore delivered a step-change quarter with record fees, much higher earnings and higher capital returns.

Evercore posted U.S. GAAP net revenues of $1,391.6 million, up 100% year-over-year, as advisory fees surged 123% to $1,244.7 million. U.S. GAAP operating income rose to $330.7 million, up 197%, and adjusted operating income reached $354.5 million, up 205%, signaling strong operating leverage on higher deal activity.

Net income attributable to Evercore Inc. increased to $301.2 million, with diluted EPS of $7.20 versus $3.48 a year earlier. Adjusted diluted EPS was $7.53. Operating margins expanded to 23.8% on a GAAP basis and 25.3% on an adjusted basis, helped by lower compensation and non-compensation ratios despite higher absolute expenses.

The first quarter effective tax rate was only 2.7% on a GAAP basis and 3.0% on an adjusted basis, primarily due to tax benefits of $88.5 million and $94.0 million from appreciation of share-based awards. This benefit boosts after-tax earnings and may not recur at the same scale. Capital return was substantial: Evercore increased its quarterly dividend 6% to $0.89 per share and returned $673.3 million via dividends and 1.9 million share repurchases at an average of $322.00 in Q1 2026.

Adjusted financial

"Adjusted results begin with information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States"

Adjusted means a financial number that has been altered to remove items considered unusual, one-time, or driven by accounting rules so the figure better reflects ongoing business performance. Investors care because adjusted figures can make it easier to compare results across periods and companies—like wiping a smudge off a window to see the view more clearly—but the adjustments vary, so they should be checked to know what was removed.

Compensation Ratio financial

"The first quarter Compensation Ratio was 65.0% for U.S. GAAP and 64.0% on an Adjusted basis"

The compensation ratio compares the total pay awarded to a top executive (often the CEO) with the pay of a typical employee, usually by dividing the executive’s total compensation by the company’s median worker pay. It matters to investors because it reveals how pay is distributed inside a company—like a snapshot of priorities—helping assess governance, cost structure and potential risks to morale, reputation or labor costs.

Assets Under Management financial

"Assets Under Management reflect end of period amounts from our consolidated Wealth Management business"

Assets under management (AUM) is the total value of all the investments that a financial company or fund is responsible for overseeing on behalf of its clients. It’s like a big bucket that shows how much money the firm is managing for people or organizations. A higher AUM often indicates a larger, more trusted company, and it can influence how much money they earn and the services they can offer.

Effective Tax Rate financial

"The first quarter effective tax rate was 2.7% versus (37.2%) for the prior year period"

The effective tax rate is the percentage of a company's profits that it pays in taxes. It shows how much of its earnings go to taxes after all deductions and credits are considered. For investors, it indicates how much of the company's income is taken by taxes, impacting overall profitability and financial health.

Non-Compensation Costs financial

"First quarter Non-Compensation Costs increased $33.0 million, or 27%, year-over-year"

Acquisition and Transition Costs financial

"Non-Compensation Costs for the first quarter of 2026 are also impacted by Acquisition and Transition Costs resulting from the impairment of a lease"

Expenses incurred when a company buys another business and moves to combine operations, systems, teams and customers—think of paying for a house purchase plus the renovations and moving costs to make it livable. These charges can include legal and advisory fees, severance, IT integration, rebranding, and facility changes. Investors watch them because they reduce short-term profits and cash but can be one-time investments intended to produce future savings or revenue growth.

NEW YORK, April 29, 2026 – Evercore Inc. (NYSE: EVR) today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

LEADERSHIP COMMENTARY

John S. Weinberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, "Our record first quarter results reflect strong momentum coming into the year and the benefits of our long-term investment strategy. Our focus remains on serving our clients and building on the strength of our franchise."

Roger C. Altman, Founder and Senior Chairman, "We delivered an exceptional first quarter, with record revenues of $1.4 billion, underscoring the relentless build-out of the Evercore platform."

Evercore's quarterly results may fluctuate significantly due to the timing and amount of transaction fees earned, as well as other factors. Accordingly, financial results in any particular quarter may not be representative of future results over a longer period of time.

Business Segments:

Evercore's business results are categorized into two segments: Investment Banking & Equities and Investment Management. Investment Banking & Equities includes providing advice to clients on mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and other strategic corporate transactions, as well as services related to securities underwriting, private placement services and commissions for agency-based equity trading services and equity research. Investment Management includes Wealth Management and interests in private equity funds which are not managed by the Company, as well as advising third-party investors through affiliates. See pages A-2 to A-8 for further information and reconciliations of these segment results to our U.S. GAAP consolidated results.

Non-GAAP Measures:

Throughout this release certain information is presented on an adjusted basis, which is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted results begin with information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), and then those results are adjusted to exclude certain items and reflect the conversion of certain Evercore LP Units into Class A shares. Evercore believes that the disclosed adjusted measures and any adjustments thereto, when presented in conjunction with comparable U.S. GAAP measures, are useful to investors to compare Evercore's results across several periods and facilitate an understanding of Evercore's operating results. Evercore uses these measures to evaluate its operating performance, as well as the performance of individual employees. These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Evercore's Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Evercore Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was higher than U.S. GAAP principally as a result of the exclusion of the following expenses:

•Acquisition-related compensation charges, reflecting expenses associated with awards granted in conjunction with the Company's acquisition of Robey Warshaw

•Acquisition and Transition Costs, including costs incurred for the impairment of a lease related to the acquisition of Robey Warshaw

•Expenses associated with the amortization of intangible assets and interest cost related to deferred acquisition consideration from the acquisition of Robey Warshaw

•Expense, or reversal of expense, associated with the changes in fair value of contingent consideration issued to the sellers of Robey Warshaw

Evercore's Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were higher than U.S. GAAP primarily as a result of the inclusion of Evercore LP Units.

Further details of these adjustments, as well as an explanation of similar amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are included in pages A-2 to A-8.

The increase in Employee Compensation and Benefits compared to the prior year period principally reflects a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards. Employee Compensation and Benefits for the first quarter of 2026 also includes $7.1 million of costs related to awards granted in conjunction with the acquisition of Robey Warshaw. The Compensation Ratio was also impacted by higher net revenues, as described above, during the current year period compared to the prior year period. See "Deferred Compensation" for more information.

Non-Compensation Costs – First quarter Non-Compensation Costs increased $33.0 million, or 27%, year-over-year, primarily driven by an increase in technology and information services, principally reflecting higher expenses associated with license fees and research services in the first quarter of 2026, an increase in depreciation and amortization, principally reflecting the addition of leasehold improvements for new office space and the amortization of intangible assets from the acquisition of Robey Warshaw, an increase in professional fees and an increase in travel and related expenses, largely due to higher levels of business activity and increased headcount. The first quarter Non-Compensation ratio of 11.3% decreased from 17.8% compared to the prior year period. The Non-Compensation Ratio was also impacted by higher net revenues, as described above, during the current year period compared to the prior year period.

Non-Compensation Costs for the first quarter of 2026 are also impacted by Acquisition and Transition Costs resulting from the impairment of a lease related to the acquisition of Robey Warshaw.

Effective Tax Rate

The first quarter effective tax rate was 2.7% versus (37.2%) for the prior year period. The effective tax rate is principally impacted by the deduction associated with the appreciation in the Firm's share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above the original grant price. The first quarter provision for income taxes for 2026 reflects an additional tax benefit of $88.5 million versus $74.3 million for the prior year period, due to the net impact associated with the appreciation in the Firm's share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above the original grant price.

Basis of Alternative Financial Statement Presentation

Our Adjusted results are a non-GAAP measure. As discussed further under "Non-GAAP Measures", Evercore believes that the disclosed Adjusted measures and any adjustments thereto, when presented in conjunction with comparable U.S. GAAP measures, are useful to investors to compare Evercore's results across several periods and better reflects how management views its operating results. These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of our U.S. GAAP results to Adjusted results is presented in the tables included in the following pages.

Adjusted Results

Throughout the discussion of Evercore's business and elsewhere in this release, information is presented on an Adjusted basis, which is a non-generally accepted accounting principles ("non-GAAP") measure. Adjusted results begin with information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), adjusted to exclude certain items and reflect the conversion of certain Evercore LP Units and Unvested Restricted Stock Units into Class A shares. Evercore believes that the disclosed Adjusted measures and any adjustments thereto, when presented in conjunction with comparable U.S. GAAP measures, are useful to investors to compare Evercore's results across several periods and facilitate an understanding of Evercore's operating results. The Company uses these measures to evaluate its operating performance, as well as the performance of individual employees. These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These Adjusted amounts are allocated to the Company's two business segments: Investment Banking & Equities and Investment Management. The differences between the Adjusted and U.S. GAAP results are as follows:

1.Assumed Exchange of Evercore LP Units into Class A Shares. The Adjusted results assume substantially all Evercore LP Units have been exchanged for Class A shares. Accordingly, the noncontrolling interest related to these units is converted to a controlling interest. The Company's management believes that it is useful to provide the per-share effect associated with the assumed conversion of substantially all of these previously granted equity interests and IPO related restricted stock units, and thus the Adjusted results reflect their exchange into Class A shares.

2.Adjustments Associated with Business Combinations and Divestitures. The following charges resulting from business combinations and divestitures have been excluded from the Adjusted results as the Company's Management believes that operating performance is more comparable across periods excluding the effects of these acquisition-related charges:

a.Acquisition and Transition Costs. Costs incurred for the impairment of a lease related to the acquisition of Robey Warshaw.

b.Acquisition-related Compensation Charges. Expenses associated with awards granted in conjunction with the Company's acquisition of Robey Warshaw.

c.Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets from the acquisition of Robey Warshaw.

d.Interest Expense. Interest expense accrued for deferred acquisition consideration issued in the acquisition of Robey Warshaw.

e.Fair Value of Contingent Consideration. The expense, or reversal of expense, associated with changes in the fair value of contingent consideration issued to the sellers of Robey Warshaw.

3.Income Taxes. Evercore is organized as a series of Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, C-Corporations and a Public Corporation in the U.S. as the ultimate parent. Certain of the subsidiaries, particularly Evercore LP, have noncontrolling interests held by management or former members of management. As a result, not all of the Company’s income is subject to corporate level taxes and certain other state and local taxes are levied. The assumption in the Adjusted earnings presentation is that substantially all of the noncontrolling interest is eliminated through the exchange of Evercore LP units into Class A common stock of the ultimate parent. As a result, the Adjusted earnings presentation assumes that the allocation of earnings to Evercore LP’s noncontrolling interest holders is substantially eliminated and is therefore subject to statutory tax rates of a C-Corporation under a conventional tax structure in the U.S. and that certain state and local taxes are reduced accordingly.

4.Presentation of Interest Expense. The Adjusted results present Adjusted Investment Banking & Equities Operating Income and Adjusted Investment Management Operating Income before interest expense on debt, lines of credit and other financing arrangements, which are included in interest expense on a U.S. GAAP basis.

5.Presentation of Income from Equity Method Investments. The Adjusted results present Income from Equity Method Investments within Revenue as the Company's Management believes it is a useful presentation.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Adjusted Financial Data

For further information on these adjustments, see page A-2.

(1)Income (Loss) from Equity Method Investments has been reclassified to Revenue in the Adjusted presentation.

(2)Interest Expense on Debt, Lines of Credit and Other Financing Arrangements is excluded from Net Revenues and presented below Operating Income in the Adjusted results and is included in Interest Expense on a U.S. GAAP basis. The Adjusted results also reflect the reduction of interest expense accrued for deferred acquisition consideration issued in the acquisition of Robey Warshaw.

(3)Expenses associated with awards granted in conjunction with the Company's acquisition of Robey Warshaw are excluded from the Adjusted presentation.

(4)Non-Compensation Costs on an Adjusted basis reflect the following adjustments:

(4a)The exclusion from the Adjusted presentation of expenses associated with the amortization of intangible assets from the acquisition of Robey Warshaw.

(4b)The exclusion from the Adjusted presentation of costs incurred for the impairment of a lease related to the acquisition of Robey Warshaw.

(4c)The exclusion from the Adjusted presentation of the expense, or reversal of expense, associated with the changes in fair value of contingent consideration issued to the sellers of Robey Warshaw.

(5)Evercore is organized as a series of Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, C-Corporations and a Public Corporation in the U.S. as the ultimate parent. Certain of the subsidiaries, particularly Evercore LP, have noncontrolling interests held by management or former members of management. As a result, not all of the Company’s income is subject to corporate level taxes and certain other state and local taxes are levied. The assumption in the Adjusted earnings presentation is that substantially all of the noncontrolling interest is eliminated through the exchange of Evercore LP units into Class A common stock of the ultimate parent.
