NEW YORK, April 26, 2023 – Evercore Inc. (NYSE: EVR) today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

LEADERSHIP COMMENTARY

John S. Weinberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, "Evercore’s 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."

Roger C. Altman, Founder and Senior Chairman, "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."

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-7 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.

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.

Evercore's Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2023were higher than U.S. GAAP as a result of the inclusion of certain Evercore LP Units and Unvested Restricted Stock Units.

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.

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

Advisory Fees – First quarter Advisory Fees decreased $162.0 million, or 26%, year-over-year, reflecting a decline in revenue earned from large transactions during the first quarter of 2023, as well as a decrease in the number of Advisory fees earned.

Underwriting Fees –First quarter Underwriting Fees decreased $13.4 million, or37%, year-over-year, reflecting a decrease in average fee size of the transactions we participated in due to the decline in overall market issuances.

Commissions and Related Revenue –First quarter Commissions and Related Revenue decreased $2.8 million, or 6%, year-over-year, primarily reflecting lower trading revenues.

Asset Management and Administration Fees –First quarter Asset Management and Administration Fees decreased $1.2 million, or 7%, year-over-year, driven by a decrease in fees from Wealth Management clients, as associated AUM decreased 5%, primarily from market depreciation.

4

Other Revenue –First quarter Other Revenue, net, increased $28.7 million year-over-year, primarily reflecting a shift from losses of $5.2 million in the first quarter of 2022 to gains of $9.4 million in the first quarter of 2023 on our investment funds portfolio due to overall market appreciation, as well as higher returns on our fixed income investment portfolios, which primarily consist of U.S treasury bills. 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.

Expenses

	U.S. GAAP
	Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2023			March 31, 2022			% Change
	(dollars in thousands)
Employee Compensation and Benefits	$	366,872		$	429,735		(15	%)
Compensation Ratio	64.1		%	59.4		%
Non-Compensation Costs	$	95,446		$	83,755		14	%
Non-Compensation Ratio	16.7		%	11.6		%
Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs	$	2,921		$	—		NM

Employee Compensation and Benefits –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.

Non-Compensation Costs –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 first quarter Non-Compensation ratio of 16.7% increased from 11.6% for the prior year period.

Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs – First quarter 2023 Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs, relate to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico.

Effective Tax Rate

The first quarter effective tax rate was 14.9% versus 16.4% 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 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.

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, as well as 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 because the Company's Management believes that operating performance is more comparable across periods excluding the effects of these acquisition-related charges:

a.Gain on Sale of Interests in ABS. The gain on the sale of a portion of the Company's interests in ABS in the first quarter of 2022 is excluded from the Adjusted presentation.

3.Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs. Expenses during 2023 that are excluded from the Adjusted presentation relate to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico.

4.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.

5.Presentation of Interest Expense. The Adjusted results present Adjusted Investment Banking & Equities Operating Income before interest expense on debt, which is included in interest expense on a U.S. GAAP basis.

6.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.

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 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.

(3)The gain on the sale of a portion of the Company's interests in ABS in the first quarter of 2022 is excluded from the Adjusted presentation.

(4)Expenses during 2023 that are excluded from the Adjusted presentation relate to the write-off of non-recoverable assets in connection with the wind-down of the Company's operations in Mexico.

(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. 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.

(6)Reflects an adjustment to eliminate noncontrolling interest related to substantially all Evercore LP partnership units which are assumed to be converted to Class A common stock in the Adjusted presentation.
