“Evercore’s fourth quarter and full year 2015 results reflect solid performance by our Investment Banking business. We delivered our seventh consecutive year of significant growth in revenues and earnings and returned more than $334 million to our shareholders,” said Ralph Schlosstein, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our advisory business performed strongly in key industry sectors, including Energy, Healthcare, Financial Institutions and TMT, with our European team delivering particularly strong growth. Our equity capital markets business grew revenues by more than 40%, serving as a bookrunner in a number of significant transactions. And our Evercore ISI team successfully executed our integration plan, growing revenues in the second half and sustaining that momentum in the early days of 2016. Our results are a testament to the investments we have made in the firm and our people, and our expanded capabilities to serve our growing client base around the globe.”
“This past year was a strong one for M&A volume around the world. And, Evercore advised on a series of the largest and most prominent transactions. Overall, our advisory business enjoyed the strongest results in the Firm’s history,” said Roger C. Altman, Executive Chairman.

Throughout the discussion of Evercore’s business segments, information is presented on an Adjusted Pro Forma basis, which is an unaudited non-generally accepted accounting principles (“non-GAAP”) measure. Adjusted Pro Forma 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 vested and unvested Evercore LP Units and Interests into Class A shares. Evercore believes that the disclosed Adjusted Pro Forma 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. For more information about the Adjusted Pro Forma basis of reporting used by management to evaluate the performance of Evercore and each line of business, including reconciliations of U.S. GAAP results to an Adjusted Pro Forma basis, see pages A-2 through A-11 included in Annex I. These Adjusted Pro Forma amounts are allocated to the Company’s two business segments: Investment Banking and Investment Management.

Expenses
Compensation costs were $223.8 million for the fourth quarter, an increase of 30% year-over-year. The trailing twelve-month compensation ratio was 58.2%, down from 59.6% a year ago. Evercore’s Investment Banking compensation ratio was 59.2% for the fourth quarter, up versus the compensation ratio reported for the three months ended December 31, 2014 of 58.6%. Year to-date compensation costs were $648.9 million, an increase of 35% from the prior year.
Non-compensation costs for the current quarter were $51.3 million, up 15% from the same period last year. The increase in non-compensation costs versus the same period in the prior year reflects the addition of personnel within most parts of the business, increased new business costs associated with higher levels of global transaction activity and higher professional fees. The ratio of non-compensation costs to net revenue for the current quarter was 13.6%, compared to 15.2% in the same quarter last year. Year-to-date non-compensation costs were $197.9 million, up 48% from the prior year. The ratio of non-compensation costs to revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 was 17.7%, compared to 16.6% last year, driven primarily by the higher non-compensation costs in the Evercore ISI equities business.

For the fourth quarter, Investment Management reported Net Revenues and Operating Income of $26.2 million and $7.0 million, respectively. Investment Management reported a fourth quarter Operating Margin of 26.7%. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, Investment Management reported Net Revenues and Operating Income of $100.9 million and $23.8 million, respectively. The year-to-date Operating Margin was 23.6%, compared to 17.3% last year.
As of December 31, 2015, including Atalanta Sosnoff, Investment Management reported $13.5 billion of AUM, an increase of 1% from September 30, 2015. On December 31, 2015 the Company restructured its investment in Atalanta Sosnoff such that its results will be reflected on the equity method of accounting in 2016. Had this been done at the beginning of 2015, it would have reduced revenues in the Investment Management business by $21.6 million, without a significant effect on operating income. AUM excluding Atalanta Sosnoff was $8.2 billion at December 31, 2015.

(1) | Management fees from Institutional Asset Management were $12.1 million, $11.2 million and $11.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and $46.1 million and $45.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, on a U.S. GAAP basis, excluding the reduction of revenues for client-related expenses. |
(2) | Equity in G5 | Evercore - Wealth Management and ABS on a U.S. GAAP basis are reclassified from Investment Management Revenue to Income from Equity Method Investments. |
Investment Advisory and Management Fees of $22.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 increased 3% compared to the same period a year ago, driven primarily by higher fees in Wealth Management and Institutional Asset Management, partially offset by lower fees in Private Equity.
Realized and Unrealized Gains of $2.4 million in the quarter decreased relative to the prior year, with the change relative to the prior period driven principally by lower Institutional Asset Management gains.
Equity in Earnings of Affiliates of $1.3 million in the quarter decreased relative to the prior year principally as a result of lower income earned in the fourth quarter of 2015 by ABS and G5 | Evercore.
Expenses
Investment Management’s fourth quarter expenses were $19.2 million, down 17% compared to the fourth quarter of 2014. Year-to-date Investment Management expenses were $77.2 million, down 11% from a year ago.
Other U.S. GAAP Adjustments
Evercore’s Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income Attributable to Evercore Partners Inc. for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015 was higher than U.S. GAAP as a result of the exclusion of expenses associated with awards granted in conjunction with certain of the Company’s acquisitions, Special Charges, certain other business acquisition-related charges and professional fees.
Acquisition-related compensation charges for 2015 include expenses associated with performance-based awards granted in conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of ISI. The amount of expense is based on the determination that it is probable that Evercore ISI will achieve certain earnings and margin targets in future periods.
7
Special Charges for 2015 include charges resulting from the restructuring of our investment in Atalanta Sosnoff in the fourth quarter, primarily related to the conversion of certain of Atalanta Sosnoff’s profits interests held by management to equity interests. Special Charges for 2015 also include a charge for the impairment of goodwill in the Institutional Asset Management reporting unit, charges related to separation benefits and costs associated with the termination of certain contracts within Evercore ISI, as well as a charge related to the finalization of a matter associated with the wind-down of the Company’s U.S. Private Equity business.
Acquisition and Transition charges for 2015 include professional fees incurred and costs related to transitioning ISI’s infrastructure, including certain regulatory settlements. Acquisition-related charges for 2015 also include adjustments to contingent consideration related to certain acquisitions.
In addition, for Adjusted Pro Forma purposes, client related expenses have been presented as a reduction from Revenues and Non-compensation costs.
Evercore’s Adjusted Pro Forma Diluted Shares Outstanding for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015 were higher than U.S. GAAP as a result of the inclusion of Evercore LP partnership units, as well as the assumed vesting of certain acquisition-related shares, LP Units/Interests and unvested restricted stock units granted to Lexicon and ISI employees.
Further details of these adjustments, as well as an explanation of similar amounts for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014 and the three months ended September 30, 2015, are included in Annex I, pages A-2 to A-11.
Non-controlling Interests
Non-controlling Interests in certain operating subsidiaries are owned by the principals and strategic investors in these businesses. Evercore’s equity ownership percentages in these operating businesses range from 61% to 72%. For the periods ended December 31, 2015, September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 the gain (loss) allocated to non-controlling interests was as follows:

Income Taxes
For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015, Evercore’s Adjusted Pro Forma effective tax rate was 37.5% and 37.3%, respectively, compared to 38.8% and 37.8%, respectively, for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014. Changes in the effective tax rate are principally driven by the level of earnings in businesses with minority owners and earnings generated outside of the U.S.
For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015, Evercore’s U.S. GAAP effective tax rate was approximately 60.9% and 57.2%, respectively, compared to 43.9% and 39.0%, respectively, for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014. The effective tax rate for U.S. GAAP purposes for 2015 reflects significant adjustments relating to the tax treatment of compensation associated with Evercore LP Units/Interests, state, local and foreign taxes, and other adjustments.
Balance Sheet
The Company continues to maintain a strong balance sheet, holding cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $492.6 million at December 31, 2015. Current assets exceed current liabilities by $341.0 million at December 31, 2015. Amounts due related to the Long-Term Notes Payable and Subordinated Borrowings were $141.8 million at December 31, 2015.
Capital Transactions
On February 1, 2016, the Board of Directors of Evercore declared a quarterly dividend of $0.31 per share to be paid on March 11, 2016 to common stockholders of record on February 26, 2016.
During the three months ended December 31, 2015 the Company repurchased approximately 2.5 million shares at an average cost per share of $52.60, including 2.4 million shares from our transaction with Mizuho on November 10, 2015, and a total of 5.5 million shares/units in the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 at an average price of $51.66.

Adjusted Pro Forma Results
Throughout the discussion of Evercore’s business segments, information is presented on an Adjusted Pro Forma basis, which is a non-generally accepted accounting principles (“non-GAAP”) measure. Adjusted Pro Forma 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 vested and unvested Evercore LP Units, other IPO related restricted stock unit awards, as well as Acquisition Related Share Issuances and Unvested Restricted Stock Units granted to Lexicon and ISI employees, into Class A shares. Evercore believes that the disclosed Adjusted Pro Forma 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 Pro Forma amounts are allocated to the Company’s two business segments: Investment Banking and Investment Management. The differences between Adjusted Pro Forma and U.S. GAAP results are as follows:
1. | Assumed Vesting of Evercore LP Units and Exchange into Class A Shares. The Company incurred expenses, in Employee Compensation and Benefits, resulting from the vesting of Class E LP Units issued in conjunction with the acquisition of ISI, as well as Class G and H LP Interests. The amount of expense for the Class G and H LP Interests is based on the determination that it is probable that Evercore ISI will achieve certain earnings and margin targets in 2015 and in future periods. The Adjusted Pro Forma results assume these LP Units and certain Class G and H LP Interests have vested and have been exchanged for Class A shares. Accordingly, any expense associated with these units, and related awards, is excluded from Adjusted Pro Forma results, and the noncontrolling interest related to these units is converted to controlling interest. The Company’s Management believes that it is useful to provide the per-share effect associated with the assumed conversion of these previously granted equity interests, and thus the Adjusted Pro Forma results reflect the exchange of certain vested and unvested Evercore LP partnership units and interests and IPO related restricted stock unit awards into Class A shares. |
2. | Adjustments Associated with Business Combinations. The following charges resulting from business combinations have been excluded from Adjusted Pro Forma results because the Company’s Management believes that operating performance is more comparable across periods excluding the effects of these acquisition-related charges: |
a. | Amortization of Intangible Assets and Other Purchase Accounting-related Amortization. Amortization of intangible assets and other purchase accounting-related amortization from the acquisitions of ISI, SFS and certain other acquisitions. |
b. | Compensation Charges. Expenses for deferred consideration issued to the sellers of certain of the Company’s acquisitions. |
c. | Acquisition and Transition Costs. Primarily professional fees incurred and costs related to transitioning ISI’s infrastructure, including certain regulatory settlements. |
d. | Fair Value of Contingent Consideration. The expense associated with changes in the fair value of contingent consideration issued to the sellers of certain of the Company’s acquisitions is excluded from Adjusted Pro Forma results. |
3. | Client Related Expenses. Client related expenses and provisions for uncollected receivables have been classified as a reduction of revenue in the Adjusted Pro Forma presentation. The Company’s Management believes that this adjustment results in more meaningful key operating ratios, such as compensation to net revenues and operating margin. |
A-2
4. | Professional Fees. The expense associated with share-based awards resulting from increases in the share price, which is required upon change in employment status, is excluded from Adjusted Pro Forma results. |
5. | Special Charges. Expenses during 2015 primarily related to a charge for the impairment of goodwill in the Institutional Asset Management reporting unit and charges related to the restructuring of our investment in Atalanta Sosnoff during the fourth quarter, primarily related to the conversion of certain of Atalanta Sosnoff’s profits interests held by management to equity interests. Special Charges for 2015 also include separation benefits and costs associated with the termination of certain contracts within the Company’s Evercore ISI business, as well as the finalization of a matter associated with the wind-down of the Company’s U.S. Private Equity business. Expenses during 2014 primarily related to separation benefits and certain exit costs related to combining the equities business upon the ISI acquisition during 2014 and a provision recorded in 2014 against contingent consideration due on the 2013 disposition of Pan. |
6. | Income Taxes. Evercore is organized as a series of Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, a C-Corporation and a Public Corporation and therefore, not all of the Company’s income is subject to corporate-level taxes. As a result, adjustments have been made to the Adjusted Pro Forma earnings to assume that the Company has adopted a conventional corporate tax structure and is taxed as a C-Corporation in the U.S. at the prevailing corporate rates, that all deferred tax assets relating to foreign operations are fully realizable within the structure on a consolidated basis and that adjustments for deferred tax assets related to the ultimate tax deductions for equity-based compensation awards are made directly to stockholders’ equity. This assumption is consistent with the assumption that certain Evercore LP Units and interests are vested and exchanged into Class A shares, as discussed in Item 1 above, as the assumed exchange would change the tax structure of the Company. In addition, the Adjusted Pro Forma presentation reflects the netting of changes in the Company’s Tax Receivable Agreement against Income Tax Expense. |
7. | Presentation of Interest Expense. The Adjusted Pro Forma results present interest expense on short-term repurchase agreements, within the Investment Management segment, in Other Revenues, net, as the Company’s Management believes it is more meaningful to present the spread on net interest resulting from the matched financial assets and liabilities. In addition, Adjusted Pro Forma Investment Banking and Investment Management Operating Income is presented before interest expense on debt, which is included in interest expense on a U.S. GAAP basis. |
8. | Presentation of Income from Equity Method Investments. The Adjusted Pro Forma results present Income from Equity Method Investments within Revenue as the Company’s Management believes it is a more meaningful presentation. |

(8) | Evercore is organized as a series of Limited Liability Companies, Partnerships, a C-Corporation and a Public Corporation and therefore, not all of the Company’s income is subject to corporate level taxes. As a result, adjustments have been made to Evercore’s effective tax rate assuming that the Company has adopted a conventional corporate tax structure and is taxed as a C-Corporation in the U.S. at the prevailing corporate rates, that all deferred tax assets relating to foreign operations are fully realizable within the structure on a consolidated basis and that, historically, adjustments for deferred tax assets related to the ultimate tax deductions for equity-based compensation awards are made directly to stockholders’ equity. In addition, the Adjusted Pro Forma presentation reflects the netting of changes in the Company’s Tax Receivable Agreement against Income Tax Expense. |

(10b) | Assumes the vesting of all Acquisition Related Share Issuances and Unvested Restricted Stock Units granted to Lexicon employees in the Adjusted Pro Forma presentation. In the computation of outstanding common stock equivalents for U.S. GAAP, these Shares and Restricted Stock Units are reflected using the Treasury Stock Method. |
