(NYSE: EVR) today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.<\/p>\n LEADERSHIP COMMENTARY<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n John S. Weinberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer<\/b>, “Evercore\u2019s commitment to our clients, extraordinary talent, and diverse capabilities position us well for the opportunity that lies ahead. We remain focused on investing in our business to drive long-term growth.”<\/p>\n Roger C. Altman, Founder and Senior Chairman<\/b>, “Global financial market conditions have proved challenging for our business so far this year. But, historically, Evercore gains market share when there are market headwinds, and I am expecting that again.”<\/p>\n 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.<\/i><\/p>\n Business Segments:<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n 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-7 for further information and reconciliations of these segment results to our U.S. GAAP consolidated results.<\/i><\/p>\n Non-GAAP Measures:<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n 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.<\/i><\/p>\n Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, have been excluded from Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Evercore Inc. These charges in 2023 relate to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of the Company’s operations in Mexico.<\/i><\/p>\n Evercore’s Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2023<\/i>were higher than U.S. GAAP as a result of the inclusion of certain Evercore LP Units and Unvested Restricted Stock Units.<\/i><\/p>\n Further details of these adjustments, as well as an explanation of similar amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are included in pages A-2 to A-7.<\/i><\/p>\n Selected Financial Data \u2013 U.S. GAAP Results<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n The following is a discussion of Evercore’s consolidated results on a U.S. GAAP basis.

The investment funds portfolio is used as an economic hedge against our deferred cash compensation program. The increase from 2022 was partially offset by a $1.3 million gain on the sale of a portion of our interests in ABS that occurred during the first quarter of 2022.<\/p>\n Expenses<\/b><\/p>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n U.S. GAAP<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n Three Months Ended<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n March 31, 2023<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n March 31, 2022<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n % \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n(dollars in thousands)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \nEmployee Compensation and Benefits<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n366,872<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n429,735<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n(15<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n%)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Compensation Ratio<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n 64.1<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n %<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n 59.4<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n %<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \nNon-Compensation Costs<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n95,446<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n83,755<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n14<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Non-Compensation Ratio<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n 16.7<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n %<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n 11.6<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n %<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \nSpecial Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n2,921<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u2014<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \nNM<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n Employee Compensation and Benefits <\/i><\/b>\u2013<\/i>First quarter Employee Compensation and Benefits decreased $62.9 million, or 15%, year-over-year, reflecting a compensation ratio of 64.1% for the first quarter of 2023 versus 59.4% for the prior year period. The decrease in Employee Compensation and Benefits compared to the prior year period principally reflects a lower accrual for incentive compensation, partially offset by higher base salaries and higher amortization of prior period deferred compensation awards. The Compensation Ratio was also impacted by lower revenues (with the exception of Other Revenue, as described above) in the current year period compared to the first quarter of 2022. See “Deferred Compensation” for more information.<\/p>\n Non-Compensation Costs <\/i><\/b>\u2013<\/i>First quarter Non-Compensation Costs increased $11.7 million, or 14%, year-over-year, primarily driven by an increase in travel and related expenses and an increase in bad debt expense.

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 2023 reflects an additional tax benefit of $13.7 million versus $19.0 million for the prior year period, due to the net impact associated with the appreciation in our share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above the original grant price.<\/p>\n Selected Financial Data \u2013 Adjusted Results<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n The following is a discussion of Evercore’s consolidated results on an Adjusted basis.
