Insights

The financial results reported by Evercore Inc. for Q2 2024 are quite impressive, showing a strong performance across several key metrics. Net revenues increased 38% year-over-year from $499.4 million to $689.2 million under U.S. GAAP. This marks a record second quarter for the company. The rise in operating income by 88% to $108.2 million and an increase in operating margins to 15.7% are significant highlights of their financial health and operational efficiency.

Notably, Evercore's advisory fees surged 52% to $568.2 million in the second quarter, reflecting effective strategic advisory services. Meanwhile, underwriting fees decreased by 19%, which aligns with the broader market trend of reduced transaction sizes. The increases in asset management and administration fees by 16% also indicate growth in their wealth management services, largely driven by market appreciation.

From a retail investor's perspective, the company's consistent growth in revenue and substantial improvements in operating margins are positive indicators of robust business performance. The increase in dividends and significant shareholder returns through buybacks underscore Evercore's commitment to returning value to shareholders.

Evercore's strategic advisory business is flourishing, as evidenced by their involvement in significant global transactions. Advising on three of the six largest global transactions, including GE's spin-off of GE Vernova, highlights their industry dominance and client trust. Also, their recognition in multiple categories at The Banker's 2024 Investment Banking Awards further cements their reputation as a leading advisory firm.

This recognition and involvement in high-profile deals will likely enhance Evercore's brand equity and attract more high-value clients, which could translate to sustained revenue growth. The addition of new senior managing directors, particularly in key markets like Paris and the U.S., also bodes well for expanding their market reach and expertise.

For retail investors, Evercore's strategic positioning and recognized expertise in handling large transactions and securing high-profile awards provide confidence in the company's growth prospects. The talent acquisition indicates a proactive approach to maintaining and enhancing their competitive edge.

The effective tax rate for Evercore decreased significantly to 25.8% for the quarter and an even more pronounced drop to 11.0% year-to-date, compared to the prior year's 28.9% and 19.8%, respectively. This reduction is largely attributed to the appreciation in the firm’s share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards, which provided additional tax benefits. This impacts net income positively, boosting earnings per share and overall profitability.

Understanding these tax benefits is important for investors as it showcases the firm's ability to manage tax liabilities effectively, contributing to enhanced net income. The resulting higher after-tax earnings make Evercore's stock potentially more attractive due to improved profitability.

For retail investors, recognizing the impact of tax management on net income is essential. Evercore's effective tax strategies contribute to better-than-expected financial results, adding a layer of financial efficiency that supports the stock's attractiveness.

LEADERSHIP COMMENTARY

John S. Weinberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, "We are in the midst of a gradual market recovery and we continue to be encouraged as momentum builds across many of our businesses. We provide a broader range of products than we ever have before to a larger, more diverse set of clients, presenting significant opportunity for Evercore."

Roger C. Altman, Founder and Senior Chairman, "Evercore produced the strongest second quarter net revenues in our history. This reflects the consistent expansion in the number of SMDs, which is continuing."

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.

Evercore's Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were 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 and six months ended June 30, 2023 are included in pages A-2 to A-7.

Employee Compensation and Benefits Second quarter Employee Compensation and Benefits increased $120.6 million, or 36%, year-over-year, reflecting a compensation ratio of 66.6% for the second quarter of 2024 versus 67.8% for the prior year period. 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 compensation expense related to senior new hires. The Compensation Ratio was impacted by higher net revenues, as described above, during the current year period compared to the prior year period. Year-to-date Employee Compensation and Benefits increased $141.4 million, or 20%, year-over-year, reflecting a year-to-date compensation ratio of 66.7% versus 65.8% for the prior year period. 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 compensation expense related to senior new hires. See "Deferred Compensation" for more information.

Non-Compensation Costs Second quarter Non-Compensation Costs increased $18.7 million, or 18%, year-over-year, primarily driven by an increase in professional fees and travel and related expenses, largely due to higher levels of business activity and increased headcount, as well as an increase in other operating expenses. The second quarter Non-Compensation ratio of 17.7% decreased from 20.7% for 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. Year-to-date Non-Compensation Costs increased $32.3 million, or 16%, year-over-year, primarily driven by an increase in professional fees and travel and related expenses, largely due to higher levels of business activity and increased headcount, as well as an increase in communications and information services, principally reflecting higher license fees and research services in 2024. The year-to-date Non-Compensation ratio of 18.2% decreased from 18.6% for 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.

Special Charges, Including Business Realignment Costs Year-to-date 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 second quarter effective tax rate was 25.8% versus 28.9% for the prior year period. The year-to-date effective tax rate was 11.0% versus 19.8% 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 year-to-date provision for income taxes for 2024 reflects an additional tax benefit of $30.9 million versus $13.8 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.

The increase in adjusted Employee Compensation and Benefits compared to the prior year period principally reflects a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher compensation expense related to senior new hires. The adjusted Compensation Ratio was impacted by higher net revenues, as described above, during the current year period compared to the prior year period. Year-to-date adjusted Employee Compensation and Benefits increased $141.4 million, or 20%, year-over-year, reflecting a year-to-date adjusted compensation ratio of 66.0% versus 65.1% for the prior year period. The increase in adjusted Employee Compensation and Benefits compared to the prior year period principally reflects a higher accrual for incentive compensation, higher base salaries and higher compensation expense related to senior new hires. See "Deferred Compensation" for more information.

Non-Compensation Costs Second quarter adjusted Non-Compensation Costs increased $18.7 million, or 18%, year-over-year, primarily driven by an increase in professional fees and travel and related expenses, largely due to higher levels of business activity and increased headcount, as well as an increase in other operating expenses. The second quarter adjusted Non-Compensation ratio of 17.6% decreased from 20.5% for the prior year period. The adjusted Non-Compensation Ratio was also impacted by higher net revenues, as described above, during the current year period compared to the prior year period. Year-to-date adjusted Non-Compensation Costs increased $32.3 million, or 16%, year-over-year, primarily driven by an increase in professional fees and travel and related expenses, largely due to higher levels of business activity and increased headcount, as well as an increase in communications and information services, principally reflecting higher license fees and research services in 2024. The year-to-date adjusted Non-Compensation ratio of 18.0% decreased from 18.4% for the prior year period. The adjusted Non-Compensation Ratio was also impacted by higher net revenues, as described above, during the current year period compared to the prior year period.

Adjusted Effective Tax Rate

The second quarter adjusted effective tax rate was 26.9% versus 29.6% for the prior year period. The year-to-date adjusted effective tax rate was 11.0% versus 20.2% for the prior year period. The adjusted 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 year-to-date adjusted provision for income taxes for 2024 reflects an additional tax benefit of $33.2 million versus $14.7 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.

As of June 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents were $631.6 million, investment securities and certificates of deposit were $1.1 billion and current assets exceeded current liabilities by $1.6 billion.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had 5.2 million unvested RSUs with an aggregate grant date fair value of $755.0 million. RSUs are expensed over the service period of the award, subject to retirement eligibility, and generally vest over four years.

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. 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.
  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 before interest expense on debt, which is 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 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)

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)

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)

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.

(6)

Assumes the exchange into Class A shares of substantially all Evercore LP Units and IPO related restricted stock unit awards in the Adjusted presentation. In the computation of outstanding common stock equivalents for U.S. GAAP net income per share, the Evercore LP Units are anti-dilutive.
